Trying to fix galaxy s2

Hi,
I am hoping to get a Samsung galaxy s2 repaired after it fell down the toilet. !I only want to retrieve my photos off it. There was no memory card installed. !I have tried to get it repaired and
was told it was fixable and it required a new circuit board but I would not be able to get my photos. This is the only reason for repair as it is all of my baby's first year. !Could you advise
about this?

Thanks

    Have you checked if the photos are stored on the memory card?

    It may be possible but if the circit board is knackered then some skilled bod may be able to remove the flash ram chips and get the info off . . ..

    Phone a few local shops and see if anyone can do this. There are guys out there who specialise in data recovery as well!

    I presume you never used Kies for a back up?

    If you had an Experia Z you could drop it in the bog and it would still work (apart from the smell!)
