Is this a faulty screen or the logic board, after water damage(video)?
Hi,
My girlfriend dropped her iPhone 4 half in a drink last week, since then I tried drying it in rice for a few days with no luck, then I bought a container of isopropyl alcohol (99%) and soaked the phone in that (minus the battery) for a few hours and letting it dry out for several days.
Now when you turn the phone on its usable in that you can navigate around, launch apps etc but the screen only shows a weird pattern. Just wondering if anyone knows if this is definitely the logic board/corrosion or would a replacement LCD/digitizer fix this?
The screen was showing a bit more of an actual image a few days ago but now just this, here's a video of it I just took:

You can see from about 1 min 15 seconds onward that the phone is still usable
Thanks a lot for your time

TopCat, you disassembled your phone and cleaned the logic board, contacts etc.? At first look I would go with a new LCD.....

I didn't clean the contacts/board directly, just took the battery out and gave it a bath in the isopropyl alcohol, swished it around and soaked it for a couple hours after reading about this in several places..
