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 couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

    IF it is a manufacturing defect and you bought the device from Apple or an authorized Apple retailer, then take it into Apple.

    I bought my iPad mini two weeks ago and used my apple ID to make it sync with my iPhone. But so far I have not been able to activate iMessage and face time. It only gives me the option of signing in and when I do that I get an error message telling me that either my user name or password for my email is incorrect; even though I have been using my correct my apple ID in the password entry area. My apple ID works for every thing else. Please, can you help in this case?

  • I got my iphone 5 3 weeks ago and the battery life is very short. It drains out very fast. Does anyone know if it's a problem with the iOS or with my phone? Because I'm a bit concerned

    I recieved my iPhone 5 3 weeks ago and the battery life completely *****! After doing a few things and maybe using it for about 30 minutes the phone start overheating like crazy then the battery starts dropping very fast. Does anyone know if it's a problem with the iOS or with my phone? And is anyone else expierenceing these problems?

    It sounds like you have an app that is incorrectly continuously using data and power... from normal use the phone should NOT be getting that warm... only constant video playing via data like Netflix for example would result in that...
    I'd say that you should remove all apps in the recent app tray... tunr phone off... then once you power back on...
    Hold BOTH home and sleep wake buttons together until you see a white apple symbol... then release both buttons...
    This will ensure you have no apps running...
    I've experienced a hang up with mail while out and about that has resulted in this on my iPhone as well... Once I performed these steps it was fixed... it seemed like it got stuck and that's what caused the warm phone and battery drain...
    I notived that when it gets stuck (mail app that is) I will see the text connecting at the bottom and it never changes to "updated" like it should... this is my trigger that it's gotten stuck.
    Have not really figured out what causes mail app to get stuck yet...

  • I just bought my macbook pro 2 weeks ago and have noticed that when I go to start it up, it takes longer to power up than when I first bought it. Does anyone know why this may be and of a fix for it?

    Hi. It could be that the more you pile on the HD, the longer it will take to boot. When I first bought my MBP, it took maybe 30 seconds. But as I began putting more content on the HD, it seemed to take a bit longer to boot. You may also want to consider putting your MBP in sleep mode. That's what I do with mine and it doesn't hurt at all as far as I can tell.

    Sure.  You can pay for an out of warranty replacement ( or if you have applecare plus, you can pay the deductible - Which is less than the OOW replacement fee.

  • HT1923 I can syn the iPod 1 week ago and now can't find it on the itune.  iPod don't appear on the PC too.

    Why the iPod is so funny while it can syn i week ago and now can't even find the iPod on the itune left hand column.  I can still hear the sound when the iPod is plug in the PC,  Why?   I have install over a thousand songs and reinstall itune means to do it all over again.  What a waste of time and energy?   There are songs I can not retrieve again!!!!

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

    We have a MacBook Pro and it is usually quiet, but it sits in a stand to allow air under the bottom.
    Just my opinion, but based on experience.
    You are still eligible to purchase the longer term AppleCare warranty I think (3 years if my memory is correct). While it is an expense that you may never need, in my opinion, it is cheap insurance based on the cost to repair computers. I buy it and more than once it has paid for itself many times over. Not that Apple products are bad, but electronics do weird things at times.

  • Hey my iPhone 5 headphone jack bent and I can only listen in one ear now I straightened it and now I have to push it a certain way to listen to music do u think apple can send another pair

    Hey my iPhone 5 headphone jack bent and i can only listening one ear and now I straightened it and I have to push it a certain way to listen to music does anyone know if apple can send me another pair

    If you purchase another pair, sure they will ship them to you.  Accidental damage caused by you is not covered under warranty, so they will not replace them for free.

  • I bought my iPhone 5 three months ago and the charger is already not working. What should I do?

  • I just got my iPhone 4 a week ago, and I realized that whenever the battery reaches 55% or less, it automatically shuts down. I have to charge it again to turn it on. I won't turn on unless there is an external power supply to it. Why is this so?

    I got my iphone 4 a week ago, but i realized that whenever the battery reaches 55% it automatically turns off and will not turn on unless its connected to a power supply (AC charger or USB on pc). I tried hard resetting it but it did not work. Havent restored it. Any idea why is this so? I hope it has nothing to do with the battery.

    Hi,
    Not that's not normal and is one of the Problems I was having before Restoring as New...
    Just make sure you Sync ALL your important Info... Contacts... Music... Etc... to your Computer...
    and then do a Restore as New...
    i was a bit reluctant at First, because I hadn't done it before... But it was So Easy and am Really Glad I did...
    Cheers,

  • Bought iphone4 and the microphone does not work only if we use in speak mode. How is it possible to fix

    I bought two  iphone4 in Miami and one of them appared a problem that the microphone does not work in normal call only if i use the speak mode. I am living in Manaus - Amazonas - Brazil and we do not have an apple store to complain it.
    Question.
    How is it possible to fix this problem ?

    Unfortunately, the warranty is NOT international. You will have to send the defective phone to someone in the U.S. and ask them to take it into the Apple Store for replacement, then have them ship it back to you. Apple will not accept the International shipment, nor will they ship a replacement phone out of the country where it has warranty coverage.
    There are 4 carriers in Brazil who sell the iPhone, including one which sells it completely unlocked. You probably would have been better off to purchase them there if that's where you live.

  • I bought my iPhone 5 three months ago and it keeps freezing, especially after making calls. What is the problem?

    Not sure what to do. Will Apple Support cover it?  Will it need to be replaced?

    I have had the same problem.  Between 8-10 minutes into a call the phone freezes and drops the call.  I cannot do ANYTHING for about 45 seconds while it says CALL ENDING.  I cannot use the phone at all and if anyone tries to call me it goes straight to VM.  I am on my 3rd iPhone 5 now due to this issue and another issue of a bad speaker.  I have restored, restarted, spent hours setting it up as a brand new phone all for not.  It still drops the call and freezes.  Makes me so mad.
