Well, my GF's G4 started bootlooping a few days ago, the local store she bought it from doesn't honor the warrenty and says it may be something we did. I didn't like hearing that and decided to take legal action.
In the meanwhile, she asked if the data can be restored, I started playing with it and reading online. The phone bootlooped anytime I took the battery out and reinserted it, then go off. I decided to put it in the freezer after reading about many successful attempts to boot the device. The first time I put it in a plastic bag for 5-10 minutes (when I took it out it had humidity on it which I wiped), it turned on! and went into Android app optimization and we were thrilled, It went off after 2 minutes so I decided to put it in again for 30-40 minutes in a sealed plastic bag (as many recommended), when I took it out it didn't turn on at all no matter how many tries I tried switching batteries, connecting to the charger etc. (it had humidity on it again when taken out of the freezer).
From then on, the phone won't turn on at all, I put it in a bag of rice in get rid of humidity/water but that didn't help and the device won't bootloop at all.
Now, I have no case as it doesn't bootloop and the store can claim there's damage not governed by warrenty, I can't claim it bootloops as it is a brick.
I'm worried the water caused corrosion which totally cancels her warrenty.
Hope someone can help me fix this out, cant believe I hope it will bootloop again.
Thanks.
