I THINK, its water damage. If not its some kinda random dmg from either bad luck, sleeping with it in my bed/under my body or pillow, or defect.
I used the phone to make a call while it was raining a week or so ago and about two days later, my screen started going wonky. hoping it was a coincidence and I have a shot at using my 1 yr warranty but im not so sure.
anyone experienced anything similar and have any advice?
The screen basically flickers and it slides from the top down over itself over and over. sorta like panning through your screens sideways cept it does it from the top down as if I were pulling down my notifications. That and it will fade out to black and then fade back in with thick grey/white bars vertically on the screen. sound works, touch still works. and when it does come back in for a secon and I can legitimately see my screen it does function (for wow authenticator for example)
Ive had it in rice for 5 days now and I cant tell if its improving or a placebo of sorts.
Should I open it? would water cause this? If I go all the way out to an apple store (20 mi) any shot at an exchange?
