I never said a cracked screen was caused by water damage. We were discussing the indicator strips.
Wow.
Got a tip for us?

Actually if you bothered to read the thread...people made the very excellent point that Apple could void warranty for problems unrelated to water damage. You'll find any way possible to blame the customer and not fault Apple. It's really absurd. This guy got his Iphone back unassembled, and they claimed water damage with no sensors tripped on an unrelated problem. So ironically, it is you with the reading comprehension problem.
And you come back apologizing for apple, as usual. Are you trying to win something?
Whilst I see the point you are trying to make, it is widely-acknowledged that Apple have been dodging the issue of over-excitable moisture sensors for almost as long as the iPhone has been in existence, so I think that your "9 times out of 10" judgment is a bit harsh to say the least.

Fair enough. Perhaps "extreme"
Gadget - stop trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Please indicate where I said anything about the cracked case. And please read my post to the OP where I said exactly what he should do regarding his situation. Side with Apple? LOL. Um no. I didn't.
Even you have to admit Apple is using those sensors to get out of honoring a valid warranty.

To be fair, the next poster after his explains how they fraudulently got a water damaged phone replaced for free! He does have a valid point as the reason the indicators are there is because of people like this, who damage their own property and demand that Apple replace it for them. I.e. stealing.
I'll say you were lucky! You committed fraud and theft and could have been charged with a crime. I would't be bragging about this on a public forum if I were you.
