Friends,
Hope you have a silver bullet for me. Brief history:
- iPhone 5S 32GB
- iOS 7.1.2
- Submerged in water for about 2 minutes (had to swim ashore)
- ALL my vacation photos are on the phone. This is ALL I care about - the rest was backed up the day before vacation.
- Stuck it in a bag of rice within 30 minutes of water exposure.
- Tried booting after two days, the Apple logo comes up and dead after three seconds. Subsequent efforts yield nothing.
- Phone goes back into rice and outside in Arizona where it stays for a few more days. It is REALLY dry at this point.
- Attempt 2 - when I plug it into the computer (Mac), the Apple logo comes up, then it dies seconds later and then the Apple logo comes up. This goes on and on.
- I CAN get it into the Recovery Mode (hold the Home button before plugging the Lighting cable in). However, Image Capture does not see the phone in Recovery Mode.
SO, is there something I can do to try and scan the phone and backup the photos in Recovery Mode? Something else?
You would make my year if you have a solution for me.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!!!!
