Both AT&T and AppleCare won't cover water damage to your iPhone, so you may think you are out of luck, but.. This tutorial will show you how to fool the Apple store's Genius Bar into replacing your phone. This is not one of those videos that tells you to stick your phone in a bucket of rice or sand and wait for days in the hopes it dries out.

If you've dropped your iPod Touch or iPhone in the pool or toilet, you will notice that there is a little red dot in the back of your headphone jack.
