I bought an iPhone 5 around fifteen days back and it has already started to give problem with the on/off button. I have to press it five six times to switch it on or off. I am so frustrated by the fact that if I bring it to the service centre, I am going to get a refurbished phone in place of my brand new phone which I just bought. The idea of a used phone repulses me. Any solutions ?

Why? Your current phone is used... it has been since the instant it was removed from the shrink wrap and turned on.

Live with the phone as is.
Take the device to Apple for evaluation... it may not need replacement.
Even if it does, neither you or the Apple tech should be able to tell if the replacement is new or refurbished.

I bought one Iphone a 3 weeks ago and I can´t listen what people speak with me, because de microphone doesn´t work, I need to use the speaker, somebody know what I need to do?
Just thought that I'd report that I've decided on my solution.
It seems that just making do with what I can find on the US store is the easiest and perhaps also the best way of going about it. All other methods mean trouble. I'm lucky that China hasn't outright blocked the US store, as they HAVE blocked iTunes music store in China already (something about a song about Tibet caused them to block the store entirely).
So yeah, just going to deal with it I guess. I should be grateful I'm getting anything at all, considering the country I'm in. Still, I just feel so ripped off sometimes when I pay for expensive devices and I can't even get much out of them do to my region. iPhones cost around $700 in China because there's no company like AT&T that you can just sign a contract with to get one, so you have to pay up-front for the phone, and get less features out of it in the end. Makes buying smart phones look like a waste of time and money sometimes, since you can't use the device to do what it was built to do due to censorship and not having any content for your region (though they do have a lot of Chinese apps that I can't use due to not knowing Chinese). -

I just bought apple i phone 4 10 days back from AT &T Retail outlet, then I set up account on itune and i saw to update the software version and i did it to 4.3.3, after that I am facing two problem 1) Battery is draining like water and 2) while I was talking on phone with family and friends It turn off automatically, Initially I thought I might made some mistake but afterward I noticed that It happen again and again without I touch anything on screen or at phone. I guess Apple suppose to do something and help the customers, anyway but I am still under 30 days warranty period I am going to return it back and I guess may be there are lot of other options available comparing iphone4. but Lets wait what kind of solutions apple bring to me.
Do you have a question or are you just here to rant?
No matter what the product, there will always be some off the line that are defective. It's a fact of life.
The phone has a 1 year Warranty, not 30 days. I'm sure they'll be happy to replace it for you.
Now, that said, have you bothered to sync the phone to make sure you don't have to come back whining because you got your phone replaced and now you can't find your stuff? -
I bought an iphone 5 only 2 days ago and both days the battery has drained to 20%. All I have done is text and make 1 call... Are there any app killers or task killers for this phone to download?
Well, i bought two iphone 5 for me and my wife...she used it for only 2 days and she gave it back to me complaining from the same problem and she went back to her 4S, i thought she was kidding until i used mine,,,oh my god, the battery does not last for more than 6 or 7 hours, even without making any calls. i was so happy with my previous 4S as i used to charge it at night and stay almost 2 days on a stand by before recharge it again. well, im done with apple, have an appointment today in apple store to return mine, and even if they give me 2 new ones, i will not even open them,,,, for sale right away.

I bought an IPhone 6 11 days ago and the screen is ruined
I just bought an I phone 6 eleven days ago. It fell off my bed this morning and the screen shattered. I've been told by numerous outlets including apple, that it cannot be replaced for less than $300. I spent $650 dollars on this phone less than two weeks ago. This is absolutely ridiculous!!!!!! I've always been a huge supporter of apple. I own apple TV, 2 MacBook Pros, 2 IPods and four previous IPhones. It seems to me that quality has been going south and the new IPhone 6 is a testament to that. I'm sincerely disappointed in this purchase and apple.

I find it humorous that the substance of my post was based on the topic the OP started. The substance was about the screen cracking from such a small impact or accident and how I think it is poor design. And you two only want to comment on the Samsung portion of my "disgruntled customer venting"..
Why not address the real issue in this thread? Be honest and comment on what I posted (the main part, not the Samsung comment at end).
And btw razmee20I am one of the "users" you refer to a not carrying less. Speak for yourself next time. I am a Apple user , a consumer and I am posting my experience, complaint and frustration in this forum that I am a "user" of.
Now...does anyone want to talk about the real issue?
There is no real issue. Devices can break. All devices can break. Apple offers AppleCare+ and also offers to replace a damaged device for less than the cost of purchasing one new. Name me a manufacturer that does free replacements for electronic devices that are damaged by the user. -
I bought this its either a 4s or a 5s at a yard sale and it keeps telling me i need there account info and they have moved i have no access to that so what do i do now did i waste 250.... please help.....
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 - "You can use iTunes to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to factory settings and the latest version of iOS. Restoring iOS software deletes all your data and content from your device, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar info."
You may encounter problems fully restoring if Activation Lock is active - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818 -
I bought an iphone 3Gs. Model no MC149C and it has cydia. Is this factory unlocked?
Call AppleCare, give them the serial and model numbers, find out who it is locked with. If it is not AT&T contact that cell provider and ask for the procedures to unlock it.
If you cannot unlock it I would return it to the seller if they said it is "factory" unlocked. -
I mean seriously, stop working on your earplugs and look at the cheap quality of your chargers. I'm really really disappointed with apple. I have always loved apple and been an i-gadget freak but your chargers just bring my spirit down. GO WORK ON YOUR CHARGERS AND MAKE THEM STRONGER. Because even you know that apple's going down now and if you still have these shrude means of giving away cheap chargers so you can make more money (by making people replace them every once in a while) then you're gonna fall down to the ground because there are better phones and you have competition.

How to recharge the battery for I-phone4????????????
Hello Marynoemi
Have you tried reset all settings
settings > general> reset > reset all settings
if that doesn't work try following this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_AU
you should probably also try another cable and charger if you have one and if that doesn't work call apple. -
it says name which is "owner"
then it ask for a password? I have no idea what that could beWas the box sealed when you took the MacBook home? If it wasn't, I would return it.
Also, check the Service and Suport Coverage on the Apple site. See if the MB has been registered and if so, the date. -
I just bought an iPhone 4S 3 days ago, but its battery seems to lose 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tuned off some location services, bluetooth, and even siri, and made its settings similar to my two-year old iPhone 4. The 4S can last much shorter. I’m not sure what I can do with the 4S?
I am having the exact same problem with my iphone 5.
I took it back to the Apple store 2 days ago and they gave me a new one, but they told me not to restore it from backup cos if something (an app) is corrupted it will happen again. The only thing they could keep was my contacts cos they did something there that allowed them to transfer them to the new phone. I went home, and downloaded only ONE app (facebook), and guess what - THE PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURING ON THE BRAND NEW PHONE! It is driving me insane as I cant get through the day without my phone.
Really hoping someone has a fix that will work -

In case the battery died, you should be aware if it was fully depleted it could take up to ten minutes for it to be charged enough to turn on.
