Will this frame help on water damaged iphone 4s? The mainboard was cleaned and dried but still runs down the battery and gets hot at the top?

This frame assembly is basically a new phone. It has all inner workings including a new mother board, minus the front glass and rear cover.

Nope . I actually had the same issue with one of my iPhone 4S and took it to a repair shop to get the battery IC replaced which normally causes the issue with the battery getting hot n draining even though it's on the charger. I ended up spending 120$ to try to get it fixed but the issue was still there. What I ended up doing was selling the device AS IS on craigslist and at least made 90$ for the device

Please do not listen to the reply David posted. This frame does not have the motherboard. The motherboard alone would cost about 75$ for an iPhone 4S. This frame has everything you need minus the motherboard, front and rear glass and also does not include the rear camera but it does include the front can.

Not likely. Water damaged electronics are unpredictable. The motherboard may work for a while but will eventually fail.

It could be a diffrance in volts/ampsI have no issues with this making my iphone hot, but it is also in a handlebar grip getting air when I ride.

Mine does the same thing during hot or long runs. The only solution I've found is to take the phone out, wipe off the screen, and put the phone back in. Not ideal.

No ... I don't think so ... I only run an S3 ... but the case is formed to the phone ... and your phone doesn't get that hot ... I hope. If it does ... I'd recommend checking what's wrong with the phone.

Doubtable but you can try. My charging port was shot and the battery wouldn't charge. So normally if you bought a new battery your phone should boot up. I would bet its another issue with your phone.

I have iPhone 4 so I hope someone else will answer. I am shocked to tell everyone how well this is built, though! Yesterday, as I parked my car in front of a supermarket and got out of the car, my coat tail hang on my phonation ps 210, I did not see it get pulled out and drop on the ground when I got out and closed the door. It was raining heavily. When I returned 30 minutes later, I was mortified convinced that it was ruined since it was still pouring and it was completely soaked. Today, I learned that it dried well and charged up and worked as if nothing happened.

I'd contact Clam Case for support issues. My case works fine except the fact that in now has cracks all along the bottom. All of the people I know who've purchased ones have the same issue. If you're within the return date, I'd return it because it's inevitable. http://imgur.com/5HQmqT1

Well, I had recently watched a YouTube video of a guy shocking an iPhone 6 plus, it totally fried the battery in about 10 seconds. So my guess would be it would either damage it or ruin it totally.

Hi Jim, I can't answer that question because I find it difficult to "test" my new Iphone by putting it under water.If it leaks and my phone is ruined....I lose, if it doesn't leak and my phone is fine...I got what I paid for.All I can say is....I am trusting the case to protect my phone from water damage "as advertised". In my opinion the case snapped together securely, with what I believe to be good seals at the joints.I don't expect to take my phone with me "in" the pool or oceanbut I believe it will protect it from splashes and drinks at the table accidents.Hope this helps......john Hi Jim, I can't answer that question because I find it difficult to "test" my new Iphone by putting it under water.If it leaks and my phone is ruined....I lose, if it doesn't leak and my phone is fine...I got what I paid for.All I can say is....I am trusting the case to protect my phone from water damage "as advertised".

Yes. Read up on the interwebs and you'll see how to do it. It's not the easiest thing. My iphone 3gs got wet too back in 2012.

This part will only help you if your charging port is damaged. If problem is how long your stays on you should try not to run many apps at once since that drains your battery. However if the problem persists you should consider buying a stronger battery.

Until now, it has not worked for me either. I recommend something, do not immerse in water. I did and I burned the screen

No my OBD is not and I have two of them. The Otterbox holds the phone very well all the way around, No way it is "loose' in the corners. If there is space on the corner that would be a protective airspace because it tends to drop on the corners so allowing the corner to bend in and not hit your phone is a good thing, I hope you never drop it THAT hard. No i have never used a boiling water fix, no need to.

Same problem here; one battery swelled while in use, enough to pop the back off the phone case. It was hot to the touch; I thought it might burst. I came on here looking for warranty information.

I did mine dry. I doubt doing it wet would help at all. If you mess up, you just take it off and try again. It won't stretch our anything like the soft plastic screen protectors do. It would be hard to squeegee the water out too ...because its a piece of glass.

Either both or separate it doesn't do the trick, if together what happens is both the iPhone and the Power Bank gets awful hot witch I think could damage the iPhone, after I recieve the first one I complain about and what I was told that I was the first person to complain and that they had sold many of the power banks and no one had complain about it, in turn I recieve another one and nothing has change the power bank seems to suffer from over heating I wrote to them about it and haven't recieve an answer, maybe because I told them I was going to keep it to use it as my iPhone protector.

if the damaged part is the charging port flex cable... but you said it charges... so no. you would have to check as the part to replace would depend on where the water infiltrated... but don't buy this from here, the led is not going to display the correct color... not like u need it tho
