Does anybody know if the iPhone 5 fixes the home button problems?

I'm still using my iPhone 4, having skipped the iPhone 4S too. But I'm a bit hesitant about upgrading. The new "taller" form factor doesn't seem especially thrilling to me.
But mainly, I'm always concerned about quality issues in the iPhone.
For example, on my iPhone 4 I've had "home button" issues. After a certain number of months the home button starts acting weird and single presses often act like double-presses, which is really irritating.
I had my originally iPhone 4 exchanged by Apple when they saw that happening. But then 7 months later the same thing started happening with the exchange unit they sent me, and I'm stuck with that now. So this seems like a design issue.
Has this problem been fixed with the iPhone 5? Nobody knows because Apple doesn't talk about stuff like that.

CoasterFanFL: Sounds like a similar issue. I suspect the spring inside just isn't properly designed to last a long time. I wonder if the iPhone 4S had the same issue. That would be indicative of whether the addressed the issue or not.
Bandit: This problem typically doesn't start showing up for 6 or 7 months of use. It's annoying to have to buy AppleCare to take care of what is apparently a design flaw. Also, even with AppleCare if I had my iPhone exchanged a 2nd time the same thing would happen again in another 6 months. So it's money down the drain!
I wish Apple had gone with a non-hardware haptic feedback soft button, like they do on many Android phones. Less hardware to break!
Thanks,
doug

  • Does anybody know if I can substitute the exchange rate in a CO document?

    Dear experts,
    Does anybody know if I can substitute the exchange rate field in a CO document creation?
    We have a header substitution in FI to populate the constant 1 in the exchange rate field every time we use a specific currency. And this substitution is working fine in FI, but if in the FI document we post an expense account, it generate a controlling document and this controlling document take as an exchange rate the one that the system has, not the constant. Does anybody know if I can create the same substitution for CO documents?
    Best Regards,
    Tatiana

    Hi Tatiana ,
    I guess you cannot do that .. but never tried that ..
    Please refer OSS Note : 392273  which specifies when Validation/Substitution is called in CO

  • TS1372 does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reported during the restore mode?

    does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reportedduring the restore cycle?

    Double check the connections on each end to make sure they are nice and snug. If possible, plug the Nano into another existing USB 2.0 port. 
    Also, with the iPod still connected, try resetting it. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons (or the Volume Down and Sleep/Wake buttons on the 6G Nano) long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Then try restoring the iPod again.

  • Does anybody know why my film says the file size is only 96kb?

    Does anybody know why my film says the file size is only 96kb (when right clicking on my mac and selecting get info) surely it should be in megabytes its a 50 second film with a few effects on it. Have i maybe clicked on something and changed it all - i moved it to the trash accidentally and then moved it back to my desktop could this be something to do with it?

    So, just to confirm, when you double-click on the 96kb file, it opens and plays your video?
    If you accidentally created a shortcut ("Alias" in Mac terms) it would likely be larger than 96kb but to check, does the icon have a tiny black arrow in the lower left corner? When you right-click or CTRL-click on the icon to bring up the menu, is there an option near the top to "Show Original"?
    If you have another hard drive avaialble, try copying the file to that and re-confirm file size.

  • Does anybody know how to check if the business partner has the authority

    Does anybody know how to check if the business partner has the authority to change business partner relationship?
    Best regards?
    Blake Le

    Hi,
    Do you mean that you would like to check if the user has the authorization to create a relationship, or change the validity of the relationship?
    As per SAP architecture, authorizations are assigned to users, not business partners.
    Business partners, could be assigned to users, who in turn have authorizations. This is typically seen for business partners, with the role, Employee.
    Hope this helps,
    Regards,

  • I have had my mac book pro for about a year and a half and suddenly my dvd player will not play DVDs and i can not play alot of things on full screen. Does anybody know how i can fix this?

    I have had my mac book pro for about a year and a half and suddenly my dvd player will not play DVDs and i can not play alot of things on full screen. Does anybody know how i can fix this?

    This could be several things, but let's get the obvious ones out of the way, first:
    1. Judging from your text, there's no problem with anything stuck in the mechanism; it's more an issue of no being to put in a disk. In other words, you're sure that there isn't a disk stuck in your MBP. (That happens a lot for all computers.)
    2. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility, and repair the disk. This should take under 10 minutes.
    3. Perform the procedure outlined here:

    4. After you're done, leave a message here as to the status of the repair.

  • Can the iphone 5's home button be replaced with the ipone 5ss'

    i was wondering if the iphone 5's home button can be switched with an ipone 5s's home button

    No, for several reasons:
    This would void your warranty, and if something were to go wrong, you would be stuck with a useless paperweight.
    The iPhone 5s is specifically engineered to take advantage of the fingerprint sensor. The iPhone 5 does not have the hardware to use the fingerprint sensor.
    The iPhone 5s' internal routings may be different to the iPhone 5's, meaning the home button will not fit.
    What would you do with the iPhone 5's home button?
    Do not attempt this, even if other people tell you it's possible and/or safe. They are incorrect. Your Apple hardware is only designed to work with the parts it was designed for.
    If you're looking to save on an iPhone 5s, then you can exchange your iPhone 5 for an iPhone 5s with some discount.
    Hope this helped!

  • Does anybody know how you can hide the accordion menu on roll-out?

    Hi
    I know that you can alter the roll-out on the composiiton menu items, but I have some accordion headers that drop down and when you roll off them the accordion does not collapse.
    Thanks, Peter

    Hi Vikas, thanks for your response.
    Sorry, perhaps I did not explain properly. What I meant was when you currently roll-over an accordion header it will, of course, expand to show you the full content of that accordion (in my case the accordion expands to show the full menu, allowing you to select a specific page within my site). However if you choose to not open anything from this menu and mouse away from the accordion it does not automatically collapse. If you go to www.deplounge.co.uk you will see what I mean. I built this entire site in Muse (of course!) I hope you like it.

  • Does anybody know where i can download the IPOD MINI SOFTWARE

    i recently bought an ipod mini off my friend but he gave me no cd with the ipod mini software. i dont need the itunes software i have that but i dont know where i can download the ipod mini software, any help will be amazing helpful and welcome, thanks

    Yes it could be. You should perhaps restore it using the updater from the link I gave you.
    Install this to your computer, restart the computer, run the Updater, then connect your iPod when prompted (not before), then choose restore.
    This will return the iPod to factory settings, erase the hard drive, reload the software and ensure the iPod is Windows formatted.
    Then you should be good to go.

  • I wonder if the iphone 5's home button will quit working?

    ....after a year and a half like my iPhone 4's did?

    I will be ordering 3 iPhone 5's and have decided to get Applecare+ on two of them. I've suffered through the broken Home button on my iPhone 4 long enough to convince me to get it. Plus the accidental damage replacement would be a lot of comfort. The only reason I'm not getting it for all three is one of the phones is for my grown daughter and I figure if she wants it she can buy it herself.

  • One last question, Does any know if they can fix the home button for a ipod touch 5? Because mines broke :/

    Anyone :\ ?

    If you want it fixed under your warranty you make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and they will replace the iPod. Make sure you backup before you go.

    I cannot burn cds from itunes. Every time I open itunes i get a message indicating i need to reinstall itunes. I have already done so but it's not working. I still cant burn cds. Does anybody know how i can fix this? My windows media player burns cds just fine.

I have deleted and reinstalled iTunes three times. I also have a problem with iTunes randomly opening itself.
