i have already started to do that .. the connectors are already nice and shining after i used a dry toothbrush. im stucked with one very tigh screw that doesnt comes loose otherwise most of the parts are gone..
a few questions
what parts are usually gone then? all?
what abouth the main board?
i saw on ebay both in the UK and US that mainboard are sold for lots of money.. even if they are non working..
maybe the best solution will be to brake it and sell it in parts?
cheers

Hi All..
bought a iphone 4 on Swedish ebay as broken/fault.. the damn things doesnt turn on..
was hoping the former owner didnt know the sleep home combo "10 secs both togheter"
so it was the first thing i tried when i received it.but with no luck..
any idea what i should try next?
i dont mind...
sorry but basically i have only the steel chassie with the lower parts "speaker etc" and the upper part like the camera and some other bits around it..
as i understand is the main motherboard that is missing
best will be to take a few pics.. so here it is
