Hi all,
I was charging my Iphone and decided to press sleep button to turn off the phone to speed up charging process. The instance I slide the power off button, my phone showed from 90% charge to red bar (empty). I now realised I had probably crashed the operating system by shutting down while charging. But how can a simple act like this cause a crash?
Anyway, took it to Apple and they said that nothing can be done. They explained that it might be the software problem locking me out so that I can't do anything. They don't just change the battery but would require the whole unit to be replaced. Do you think maybe it's just my battery that stuffed up or the operating system stuffed up? I am willing to spend money and time to fix up this problem instead of getting another phone as I have never backed up since getting it and it's been over a year now.
I believe you can recover data from deleted files by jailbreaking, but can you recover data from a factory restore through Itunes? I am willing to do a restore and jailbreak if I can get the data back. However, how hard is it for a novice to do this?
Also, my phone didn't die from jailbreaking; is it still termed a bricked phone?
