My phone has died. It refuses to turn itself on. I've already harrassed Google into giving me sites that could be of some assistance, but to no avail. I can only agree to it being water damage (coz I have taken my phone into the bathroom while I showered a few times, and it was kinda... raining... 10mins before I realised my phone was dead).

I have attempted to clean the PCB using Chunkhead's Guide To Water Damage (though I didn't soak it, I just squirted). Funnily enough, I hadn't noticed any signs of corrosion, but I wouldn't know if all [supposedly] water-damaged phones show these. I haven't given up hope, but I do have an inquiry:

Is there any way for me to retrieve the data saved on the internal memory?

I would go so far as to solder the chip onto another phone (the one time I deny my phone backup, I manage to kill it, so yes, I'm somewhat desperate). I doubt my memory has been damaged, I just think it's a power problem (my battery works fine in other phones, another battery doesn't work in mine).

Mostly Appreciated
