Cracked iPhone 4, weird situation. Help PLEASE!?

I have a very unusual situation with my iPhone 4 and I guess I just want someone else's view on it.
I was in my living skills class at school and we were making food. While we were waiting for it to come out of the oven, my phone being completely fine before, I set it on the table and was talking to some of my friends and looking at a video on another friends phone. I turned back to grab my phone and check it and it was cracked at the VERY middle at the top and is cracked to the ear speaker and branches off around it, luckily not on the camera. I have no idea how it happened and my friends were all really confused also because not one of us including me had touched it. We think someone could have walked by and hit it or done something to it. But we all have NO idea what happened so really it could have been anything. I don't know what to tell the apple store, I'm going to a mall near Seattle this weekend and ANY help or advice for my situation would mean a lot. Please.
Thank you ahead of time for any help.

Virginia,
      About 9 months ago, the glass BACK of my iPhone 4 broke after I sat on it in bed.  I took it in to an Apple store, and they fixed it for free right then and there, without an appointment.  But they told me that if the front screen is ever broken, it cannot be repaired, because Apple builds the phone on top if the screen, and there is no way to pry it off and glue it back on again.  Good luck.

  • Bought an iPhone 4 locked icloud help please

    Hello, i just bought an iphone 4 white, then i connected it in iTunes & restaured it for removing icloud password
    but it has been blocked, and it ask me to put Email & password
    help please ! i bought it in opportunity !!!
    what to do ...

    Contact whomever it was purchased from and request the Apple ID and password that is setup on the device or have them remove the device from their iCloud account.
    Otherwise, return the device if possible. 
    There is no way to bypass the Apple ID activation lock.

    Hey tomohawk122,
    Have any of the Apple devices worked before?  I'll post a few questions, and a document you can try, please let me know how it goes
    1. Have you had a chance to try steps like power resetting the router and the apple devices?
    2. how far away is the router from your ipad usually?
    3. which printer do you have?
    Please try the steps in this doc, under "no airprinters found" http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c02623193&jumpid=reg_r1002_usen&lc=...

    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.

  • Serious situation help please

    Guys, it's a terrible situation.. my sister had an iphone 4 before she passed away and after 5days i found it, i dont know her apple id or password to activate it but i believe that the phone has some memories,pictures of her - is it anyway possible to activate it ? I would really appreciate any advice/help  and sorry for my bad english.

    Please do not get so much worried. Get a third party apps from internet ( that is itunes alternative, any software other than itunes will not ask for any APPLE ID or PASSWORD) , that will help you to keep PHOTOS, VIDEOS & OTHERS that were kept in that iPhone. And then try to RESTORE.
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    Restoring > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
    After RESTORING you are then able to have an activated device.

  • WHY WONT MY IPHONE CHARGE!?HELP PLEASE!?

    Soo I've had my iPhone 5 now for a little over a month.. Everything was cool, but tonight my phone won't charge!! It's Dead now , I've been SO careful with my phone . So I know I didn't tear it up .. When i noticed it wasnt charging At first when I would jiggle the cord around it would charge , but now it's not doing anything .. It's just completely dead 
    Can someone PLEASE help?????????

    Hi - if the cable fits tightly at each end then it sounds like you have a defective cable - it is still under warranty so I would start by contacting Apple and see what they say - go to - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/ - when you do get a new cable, be sure to let the phone charge for several hours before you turn it on because it does not work directly from the charger.

  • ITunes-iPhone music syncing issue, HELP PLEASE!

    Hi, after having some hardware issues with my iPhone 5, Apple replaced it with a new one.
    I restored everything from my iCloud backup with no problem and it downloaded all of my iTunes Store songs on the phone without any issues and as I plugged my phone into my 2010 MacBook Pro to put some new songs to it from a CD I just bought, ALL of the songs that I have on my phone that I bought from the iTunes Store were duplicated as grey 'ready to sync' songs. But they were not syncing. So I deleted all music and videos from my phone (by the way, I always use the Manually manage songs and videos function in all my devices, never did auto-sync) thinking maybe if i drag everything from my computer it'll change, but it won't! Whenever I click on 'sync', the grey songs appear. And the grey songs are only the songs that were bought from the iTunes Store and the songs I used to have on the other iPhone, that are in the iCloud backup. I've tried almost eveything for the past 3 days and finally gave up and decided to ask for help. If anyone can help me i'll be extremely grateful, thanks.
    My iPhone 5 is running on iOS 7.0.6 and 11.1.4 on iTunes
    ps: Please feel free to ask anything if I didn't explain it too clearly, English is not my main language.

    Im unable to assist you with the mac/mail side of the house. If you had outlook then I could assist. My thougts would be...With your phone plugged into iTunes, go to the second tab and confirm that you have contacts checked to sync between your computer/phone...if you don't then it will just transfer all your 0's and 1's to digi land. Contacts and calenders sync with your calender software, iTunes is just the conduit to get it there. I would also recommend that when you get your contacts back on your computer that you create a backup file in case this happens again, then you can just restore it. Hope this all helps.
    Good Luck

  • Jammed lock button and cracked screen!!! HELP PLEASE!!!

    About three months after I bought my Ipod touch it fell off of my bed and cracked the screen entirely. I took it to Apple store and they said they couldn't replace it because it had no damage to the board and that it would cost $100 so I said screw it I can still read the screen. NOW I recently realized my lock/power button is jammed out of no where! I tried wiggling it with my nails, tapping it on the counter, and everything I could think of. I still have my warranty for another month or two. Can I get it replaced without charge? or what do I do? I really don't want to spend $100 bucks on this Ipod when every time I turn around something else happens. HELP please

    Apple only exchanges the iPod for a refurbished one. Accidental damage like the broken screen voids the warranty on the entire iPod.

  • Rom UK to South IPhone 3GS Synching Problems - HELP PLEASE

    Hey, I need help.
    Every time I connect my iphone to my HP laptop, it says it can't read the iphone and wants to restore the software.
    I go through this route, and it sometimes allows me to synch my contacts, but I have no joy with apps or music. This iPhone has worked perfectly with this PC previously.
    I am now running the latest iTunes software and also iOS4 on my iPhone and still no success.
    I get a message saying that an iPhone has previously been synched with this PC, which is true, as it is my one and only iPhone.
    As an aside, but may be related, I recently moved from UK to South Africa, and had my iPhone unlocked by o2 in the UK and now work from a Vodacom sim card.
    I've taken my iPhone and laptop into a local Apple store, and whilst it appeared to work in the shop, as these things always do, when I got home, reconnected, I got the same problem and has to restore my iPhone completely.
    Can anyone possibly help.
    I feel I need to get my iTunes to recognise that this is the iPhone thats been synched with it in the past.
    Other random error messages I get are things like, "cannot sync as item is a folder rather than a file"
    HELP

    Welcome to the club. This is a problem that has surfaced with OS 3.0.1 and continues into 3.1. All 3rd party apps crash at startup on iPhone 3g and 3gs. OS 3.0 didn't behave this way and Apple apparently has no comment to make on the matter.
