Would a leather magnetic flip case damage my Iphone?

would a leather magnetic flip case damage my Iphone???

Here's the leather magnetic case I use.
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=accessoryDetails&archetypeId=12621&accessoryId=47558&initialPhoneId=5993
I've been using it with my Droid X from July 15th, 2010, (launch day) right up until the time I upgraded to my Razr Maxx HD on October 24th, 2012 with absolutely no ill effects on either phone. The Droid X was carried daily for just shy of 2-1/2 years and my new Maxx HD for almost 3 weeks. I've been using the same holder everyday. I think it's safe to say you should be good if you use a case with a magnetic latch even with an iPhone.
The only thing I had on my "X" was a screen protector but my Maxx HD has been naked since day one.
Go for it!!!!

Can magnets in a iphone4 leather case damage the phone?

I bought a Capdase leather case for my iphone4, after i found out that it uses a magnetic flap closure, I kinda worry about that magnet will damange my shiny iphone for things like the speaker,the built-in compass,the Gyroscope and many other delicate IC components.
So my question is does magnet in a iphone case damage the phone or affect the use of the phone like phone signal and etc.?

Thanks alot Malcolm, and base on your information, can I infer that using a case with magnet will not do permanent damage to my iphone4? it will only cause some temporary interference at most?

I have a magnetic flip case for iphone 4 will the magnet damage it

i have a magnetic flip case for iphone 4 will the magnet damage it

Only if you Exchange the flash storage with a magnetic harddrive
And Exchange the passive magnes with Electronic aktive magnets
It's a myth
So is wait 1/2 hour before going swimming
Sitting to close to the tv damange your eyes
And you Should drain batts before charging them

my husband wants to have a case to put on his belt for the iphone, I have looked through the store accessories and do not see anything

Try the otterbox defender series. They have awesome protection for the phone plus a belt clip for the phone as well. I really like the design.

Will I damage my iPhone 4s if I use a flip case with magnetic fastening?

I want to buy a case that I can use to protect the whole of my iPhone and so I need to buy a flip case with a magnetic fastening. However, I have heard rumour that this will damage the compass and navigation on my phone and other various utilities and also ruin the actual touch screen. Is this true or am I safe to go ahead and buy a case?
Thank you for reading :-)

No, It will not damage the compass but it might cause it to be inaccurate.

Can I exchange my water damaged 5s for a reconditioned phone or have it fixed?

My young son decided that my new (3month old) 5s iphone needed to go into a full sink of water with the breakfast dishes....I have no idea how long it was in the sink, but I have tried to dry it out over a few days and when I finally plugged in the charger lead, it looked as if it was going to recharge, shortly afterwards it died and now will not work at all.
I understand this is not covered by warrenty, but I can not afford to purchase a new phone at the present time.
Being that the 5s was my first iphone, I have fallen in love with it and now I'm desperate to replace or fix the phone asap.
I have read of such exchanges of reconditioned phones and wonder if I may be able to also do this?

Hi kelllie,
Did you by any chance purchase AppleCare + for your phone? If you did, then you are covered by 2 incidents of accidental damage:
http://www.apple.com/support/products/iphone.html
If you do not have AppleCare +, then you can only see what you could get using the Apple Recycle program, and then use the gift card balance to purchase a new phone:

Sorry about your son's "submarine" experiment....

I have been having issues with not receiving texts and voicemails daily, for a few months now. If I turn the phone completely off, when I turn it back on the messages will flood in from hours before. I can't be continually turning off my phone in case som

I have been having issues with not receiving texts and voicemails daily, for a few months now. If I turn the phone completely off, when I turn it back on the messages will flood in from hours before. I can't be continually turning off my phone in case someone left me a message. How do I resolve this issue?

Wifi: my Cell phone will remember 10 wifi connections. So delete any you don't use often and your home wifi and try to enter home wifi again.
if it still won't connect to home wifi, call your internet provider for help. You may need a newer router or different settings Or upgraded service. Your phone seeks the best connection and will refuse lesser connections.
last resort. Backup the phone. Do a full reset, then restore as new with the backup.
if still not fixed, go back to apple and insist on repair or replacement.
HOWEVER. voicemail is not a wifi issue, it's a carrier function, which is why the SIM card is a suspect.

HT1212 Can I access my iPhone 5 remotely that has a damaged screen that can not be unlocked from the actual phone itself?

No.

HT1688 I have a damaged I-Phone and I need the contents of my calendar off of it. I did not have Mobile me at the time. Can I swap out the sim card from the broken phone to a new phone and recover this calendar?

I have an older I-Phone (3G) that for some reason the body of the phone has split in two. This phone was a business phone and it had a lot of important information on it. I have a second phone that is also a 3G. On the broken phone there is a lot of important information that I need in my calendar. Im not worried about anything else but the calendar. I didn't have the Mobile Me account at that time or I would be having this problem. Does anybody know if I can ust switch out the sim cards. I just need to recover the old calendar, so im hoping that the calendar will transfer when I switch the sim card into the good 3G. If that doesn't work does anybody know of anyway that I can retrieve this information off of this phone?

Nothing is stored on the sim card on an iPhone. If you backed up to your computer the backup will contain your calendar events. Otherwise, if your phone isn't functioning there is no way to back up or extract your calendar at this point.

Magnetic iPhone Cases, Good or Bad Idea?

Thinking of purchasing a new iPhone case which has a leather flip cover for the touch screen and has magnetic fasteners.
Dose anyone know if this can affect the iPhone or it's touch screen?
Thanks.
here is the site and it is a dock ’able’ case.
Found it on another thread here.

How did you replace them?
Did it come with that option or did you just cut them
out?
Lastly what case are you using?
Thanks for the info, I'll be looking for a velcro
case now.
It's a cheap generic case that I got at a T-Mobile kiosk in the mall. I cut performed a little surgey and removed the 4 small magnets and used some self-stick Velcro from Office Max.
I have a Case-Mate cover on order for protection, (http://www.case-mate.com/phones/apple/Perforated-Leather-iPhone-Case) but I HOPE I can still use my case (or something like it) as a carrier and not have to have it hanging exposed from a belt clip.
Here are a couple of nice looking Velcro pouches that I'm actually considering as a replacement for mine. (The surgery wasn't completely successful, and it WAS a pretty cheap case to start with.)
I think I like the looks of this one best:

But this one's not bad either:

Problems with Roxfit flip case.

I have had several occasions now where my phone is freezing. I think the problem is caused by the flip case. It seems that if you don't lock the phone before closing the flap that the phone thinks it's screen is being touched. When i open the flap the quick settIngs / notification bar has been opened and the phone seems to have frozen or like its trying to catch up with multiple presses.
Anyone else had anything like this?

Hi and sorry for my englisch...
My wife owns the Xperia Z1 Compact and this case (Roxfit):
http://static.webshopapp.com/shops/000021/files/010545624/600x600x2/roxfit-flip-book-case-sony-xperi...
and she has the same problem. When you open the case and unlock the phone, sometimes the phone go crazzy and its like the upper task bar touches him self (like you said: trying to catch up with multiple presses)...
My friends wife has the same phone and the same case... and the same problem.
I serch the internet for people withe the same problem, but i found only this thread... My friends wife changed the case for another one and it solve the problem, so i dit the same for my wife...
Btw the Roxfit flip case have a strong magnet (i dont known what for) maybe thi is the problem...

Z10 flip case flaw draining battery

Picked up a BlackBerry branded flip case for my Z10 today, fitted it to the device, and after a few hours I noticed that that my battery had drained dramatically.
After a bit of investigation, I think it is down to a flaw in the case. The cover of the case has magnet which wakes/sleeps the device as you open and close it. Pretty neat in principle, but the edge of the cover overhangs the edge of the phone, and when it is pushed up against something in your pocket or bag, it raises the centre spine of the cover away from the screen, which immediately causes the device to wake up (see video illustrating this here).
This happens pretty continuously if your phone is loose in your pocket or bag, so battery is constantly being drained by the screen.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a way around it?

Your description makes sense. If the screen is being toggled on very often the battery will go down faster for sure.
I use a simple Gel Grip case. I set the phone to sleep or standby after 60 seconds. I have no battery issues with the phone. I found with the newest software update the battery management is improved.

I have lost my iphone and did not have Find me set up. Is there any way that Apple or anyone can track the last location of my phone before it turned off?

I have lost my Iphone last week. I know this has been a while, but I am desperate. I have talked to At&t and there is no way they could track my phone with it turned off. So I was wondering if there's any way that we can check the last location of the phone before it died? And also, if there's any way we can ping the phone in case it was stolen and was turned on? I hope to read ur responses soon. Thank you.

If you did not setup Find My Phone, I'm afraid yo're out of luck. There is no practical way to track your phone.
