Crack in the back cover

Hi, I just noticed that my iPhone 3G's back cover has a little crack just where the mute switch is. Is this a material defect or something? I never dropped my iPhone or anything like that. Can I use Apple's guarantee to let this repair? If so, how can I contact Apple (Germany) for that?
Thanks

  • Crack on the back cover

    Is my expria z1 waterproof still works even if it has a crack at the back cover? I accidentally step on it.

    Contact your local Xperia support, I wouldn't think it's waterproof but only they can check it.

  • Replacing the back cover

    I had recent cracked the back cover of my phone and it's starting to bug me now, is there anyway i can take it off and replace it? I know i can take it off, but will it void warrenty? Also where would i get a new cover from? I would kind of like to have a customized cover, but what ever works.
    Thank you.

    Tamara has a good suggestion, at least until your warranty runs out.
    This is a good case and hardly adds any volume to the iPhone... http://www.myincipio.com/category/iphonecases.iphone_feathercase/

  • I'm missing the back cover and flap for my book. Doesn't show up in the interface. How can I restore these?

    I'm missing the back cover and flap for my book in the layout interface. Does anyone know how to restore these?  I've searched the interface but can't find an option to add cover/flap. Don't want to order a book without it.
    Any advice is welcome!

    Time to repair you library: do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
    3 - if necessary repeat with Option #1, Repair Permissions.

  • Somehow I messed up creating my hard cover book.  I don't have the back cover and flap.  How do I get it back?

    somehow I messed up creating my hard cover book.  I don't have the back cover and flap.  How do I get it back?

    What version of iPhoto are you running?  Where are you seeing this lack of back cover and flap.
    A first try fix is this:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    If that doesn't help create a new book and see if the back cover and flap are in it.  If so then it appears that your original book is damaged. 
    You can try rebuilding the library by launching iPhoto with the Option and Command keys held down and select the option to Repair the Database, option #3.  If that fails rebuild again with option #4, Rebuild Database.
    If that doesn't help then create a new book, verify that the back cover and flap is there and add the photos.

  • Does apple sell the back cover for iphone 5?

    As we all know the iphone 5 back cover is made of aluminum and how easily it's edges can get scratched....
    now if i don't like protective covers and I am willing to invest in replacing the back cover after a while with an original one, can I purchase it from apple?

    Apple does not sell any iPhone parts. 3rd party suppliers like iFixit.com would be your best bet, but will void any warranty you may have.

  • How do I get the back cover off?

    Hey guys I just bough a new GE70 2PE Apache Pro (Ge70 2PE-010US to be precise) and I want to add an SSD to it. How do I get the back cover off so I can open it up?

    Quote from: TheSarge;102473
    I figured it out. What was stumping me is that there's a screw under the god dam "Warranty Sticker."
    By the way, I am not happy that MSI made the retarded decision to replace the Windows Context Menu keyboard key with a second "\" key and move it next to the space bar. There's already a "\" key on the keyboard, MSI; Why the hell would I want two of them? Any idea how to rectify this idiocy?
    I've never really use this Windows Context Menu key.. so this never bothers me.
    but think you can ask why they have this design, I don't really notice it until you bring it up.
    I remember they have a online system.

    If it's a manufacturing defect, yes it would be covered. 

  • Nokia 2600 classic - how do I get the back cover o...

    I have just bought my first mobile phone ever, so am a complete novice; I have tried to follow the instructions to press the release button and take off the back cover to fit the battery, but I cannot get the cover to open.
    The main question is, am I trying to open the phone at the right end - i.e. if the phone is face down, the end nearest to the loudspeaker?
    I am loathe to use an implement on the phone in case I damage the case.
    Any advice would be very welcome - I feel so stupid!
    Thank you.

    nothing to be ashamed of, we all have problems with certain phones sometimes.
    the back cover of the 2600 is quite big and covers the whole back side plus sides of the phone that's why it's difficult sometimes to remove.
    the release button is located at the top of the device , with the phone facing down press on that button, remeber that the body of the button is actually part of the body and not of the cover and so performs as a latch.
    while pressing hard enough on that button you can fell that the button goes in enough distance to clear the whole thickness of the back cover plastic. Now wedge your finger nail between the cover and the body anywhere at the top of the device, that should give you enough lift to release the upper part of the cover.
    pull up and slightly backward to release the lower part of the cover.
    for a diagramtic representation , please take alook at your user manual, available here:

  • Nokia having problem in designing the back cover f...

    did anybody noticed the difference of 5800xm between taking picture with the back cover and without the back cover?
    i can only tell that, the picture taken with back cover is juz too **bleep**, while the picture taken without back cover is clear, vivid & nice...
    before discovering this, i have heard of many people complaining about the picture quality of 5800xm. they were wandering whether the Carl Zeiss Optics on it is true or fake... and now, i know it's not the problem of the lens, but because of the back cover. it makes the LED flash to expanse to the bottom left corner of the camera, and thus making the picture with flash on looks like it's taken in the midst of the fog. 
    i hope Nokia would see this, and do something about it. at least design a better kind of back cover that can fix this problem for us to change. thxz...

    what do u mean by "u tried and it worked"? was it mean that my experiment was true, and that the problem i mentioned happened to ur 5800xm as well?
    it's ok if nokia didn't provide us the xenon flash on an Xpress Music series, Dual LED does take great image too. but at least design another good back cover for our beloved 5800xm. the Carl Zeiss Optics Lens is really good on it, and it takes good picture without the back cover...

  • Why I can't use a photo on the back cover in

    why I can't use a photo on the back cover in

    I'm assuming you're referring to the back cover of a book in iPhoto.  The reason is non of the themes have a photo on the back cover.  Some have a small photo on the back of the dust jacket.  Go to the back cover, click on it and check out the various layouts available.
    In the future include full sentences and specific information about what you're trying to accomplish, what versions of software you're using, etc. so we don't have to guess.

  • 3710 How do I get the back cover off?

    3710 How do I get the back cover off?
    I had it off once to put the battery in; now it appears to be stuck.
    I 'm trying to follow the pictorial instructions, but it is not budging.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    We used 3 hands
    Two thumbs placed according to manual.
    Then at the same time by pushing with a fingernail at the end of the cover (from you third hand)  from the direction of the camera it should come of easily.

  • Removing the back cover

    Hi all,
    Well, we have the ever-popular, iMac G5 that won't power up issue. No sound, no video, the light turns on. The one-year warranty expired on 2/17/07 and it's not in the first generation iMacs covered by Apple's extended repair for this issue.
    We are interested in diagnosing in more detail but are having a hecka time getting the back cover off. Funny how the user's manual simply states: raise the foot and lift the back cover off. Sure.
    Anyway, anyone have some back cover removal tips or tricks? We've got some old credit cards we can ruin but aren't having much luck with those either.
    Thanks.

    "Funny how the user's manual simply states: raise the foot and lift the back cover off."
