Brand new iPhone 4 not vibrating

On Sunday 2nd I got my first ever iPhone yipee! Got it from t-mobile on a 2 year contract. However, as I came to use the phone in silent mode today I realised it wasn't vibrating at all. It is checked as on to vibrate both in silent mode and whenever I recieve a message or call in normal mode and yet I have never felt it vibrate. I downloaded the ibrate app and sure enough this didn't vibrate. From reading around I've tried leaving the app running, tapping the back of the phone all to no avail
Even though I didn't buy my iPhone from apple should I still be booking an appointment at the genius bar or should I speak to someone at t-mobile first? If I go to apple is it likely to need to be repaired/replaced and how long should I expect these processes to take?
Thanks for any help :3

Wow... talk about a whiny little brat.
Name one other company that would not require the user to return defective product to the place of purchase for exchange or refund?
Get over yourself... the world does not revolve around you.
Defective products happen, nothing is perfect.

I have a brand new IPhone 4G. For the life of me, I can't get the phone to ring. I have been in and out of my settings, have disengaged both silent and vibrate. But when dialing my number from another phone, the call goes direclty into my voice mail

I have a brand new IPhone 4G. I can't get it to ring. I have gone into settings and disengaged vibrate, and have engaged the ring button on side of phone. But everytime I dial my number from a different phone, it doesn't ring. Rather the call goes directly into my voice mailbox (ogm heard immediately); not even one ring! Please advise

Well, if it goes to VM immediately the call isn't reaching your phone, so no wonder it isn't ringing. Do you see a network displayed in the upper left of the screen? Have you activated the phone by connecting to a computer with the latest version of iTunes? Have you called your carrier to make sure they have provisioned it correctly?

If you can't restore from your backup you could try 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor to see if you could extract your notes from the backup.

FaceTime feature is not available on brand new iphone 5 from Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE)

We got a brand new iphone 5 from Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). We are living in Italy and we are trying to setup the FaceTime on brand new iphone 5 but to no avail. Is there a way to enable the FaceTime features?
Can Apple or the carrier are capable of doing it?

FaceTime

"If FaceTime is not available in Settings: Note that FaceTime may not be available on devices purchased or used in certain countries, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates."
Unfortunately that device does not have FaceTime.

Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G or Wi-Fi

Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G and Wi-Fi
I have tried multiple times over numerous days in multiple locations
Any hints?

Well to start your iPhone 4S does not have 4G... it just shows 4G at the top of the screen..
Try turning SIRI off and on.. if that does not work
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings..
Because SIRI is a network connection to a server nothing more.. it is not on your device so nothing is wrong with your phone..
Also SIRI is in BETA... and not 100%

My brand new iPhone 6 Plus showing call time 2 hrs 41 mins when I did not even use the phone yet! Did I just purchased a used phone?

Hi,
Can anyone advise why my brand new iPhone 6 Plus showing Lifetime 2 hrs 41 mins under Settings/Call Time? I did not even use the phone to make call yet!
Thank you.
Regards,
SC.

Hi
I meant when they test a percentage of devices as part of quality control - to make sure that a particular batch of phones is defect free and market ready
The Call time is apparently the total time one spends talking on the phone between total resets and wipes

Iphone 4 set up query have a brand new iphone 4, I have plugged it in using the wall charger and it does not seem to be doing anything. Trying to turn it on it is not working either. Is there some vital part of set up I have missed or is this a dud??

I have just received a brand new iphone 4 in the mail. I have plugged it in using the apple wall charger for around 3 hours now and it does not seem to be doing anything. Tried to plug it into the computer, again no response. Trying to turn it on has not had any success either. Should I be concerned that the screen is blank and not showing a charging symbol?? Have I missed some vital step in set up??
Thanks for your help!!!!

Try resetting the phone:
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
Then, launch iTunes & connect your phone...what happens?

Brand New iPhone 4 camera does not seem level

I got a Brand new iPhone 4 from the Apple store and I have found the camera when trying to take pictures of level things. (even anything to be honest)
even after taking pictures using a spirit level on top of the phone and making sure the item is level its still on not right
The top picture shows its level the tv unit, picture taken with the iPhone 4
then the Bottom picture is taken with the level on the phone resting on the side of the phone so its like the top. So the iphone is level
see pictures
Anyone think its faulty, its only 1 day old at time of posting this..

The iPhone 4 back camera snaps down into a simple basin, socket. If it is not seated perfect it will obviously be missaligned.
You have full Warranty, make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution. Before you leave make sure the Photos are perfect. The Genius may pust rear camera correctly into place or offer perfect replacement iPhone 4.

I HAVE A BRAND NEW IPHONE 5S. IT SUDDENLY DOESNT WANT TO CHARGE. IT SAYS THE CHARGER IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MY DEVISE. WHY DID THAT HAPPEN?

I have a brand new iphone. All of a sudden it will not charge. When i plug the charger to the phone it says that charger its not compadible with my phone and sometimes it will charge up to 4% and then it wont charge any more. Why is this?

If your phone is still under warranty, get it checked by Apple or visit an Authorized Apple Service Provider to find out what the problem might be.
Could be the USB adapter, USB cable or the docking port of the phone.

Brand new iPhone 4 (unlocked), got it activated yesterday, and speakers doesn't work, did restore back to factory settings, not luck, any suggestions. This iPhone was purchased in US, currently in India, will Apple support in India?

There are many threads on this forum regarding speaker not working issues. You might try searching them. Hopefully you'll find the answer you need.
BTW, the iPhone only has ONE speaker.

Wi-Fi in range, ID and Password Correct.... What is going on?

Check that the email address is correct for your login. You'd be surprised how many times I've seen people see the prompt and just go with a password and not realize that the email address was wrong.
Aside from that, you can try resetting your password via the iForgot app.
If you forgot your password, you can easily recover or reset it using iForgot. For security reasons, Apple cannot reset your password for you. To protect yourself against unauthorized purchases to your credit card, do not give out your password to anyone.
