Exchanging black iphone 5 for white iphone 5

i know this might sound idiotic, but i recently had a change of heart of which color to get, i ordered a black iphone 5 and expect it to be here on the 28th but after doing further research on scratch issues with it I was wondering if i could go to my local verizon store and exchange it for a white one? quick replies will be helpful

Your only other option would be to contact VZW and address the request...but chances are it will cause you to be pushed back in the shipping order. Remember also that your 14 days starts on the day the phone ships, NOT the day that you activate it...always thought that was unfair but it's the way they do it. So technically, you may only have 12-13 days to exchange. Yes, it's only a day or two difference but those days can matter if you really needed them lol.

  • Black iphone 5 for white iphone 5

    would i be able to go to the apple store and trade in my black iphone 5 for a white iphone 5?

    If you bought the black one less than 2 weeks ago, you can return it for a refund and buy whatever you want. Otherwise, no.

  • Who many people are waiting for White iPhone 4?

    ?

    i'm waiting too! thinking of just getting a black one (if i can to tied me over until the white comes out) although i've had 2 instances of getting a black 32 gig on launch day (i reserved and didn't pick up) and black 16 gig at at&t on tuesday (also didn't pick up)...wasn't sure it was gonna be a big hassle to return/exchange...white iphone 4, come out come out wherever you are!

  • Which cases should I use for white iphone 4

    I like Otterbox but they have a disclaimer that states their cases are not white iPhone 4 compatible.

    The Defender case is great but I found out after purchasing that it doesn't work with my white iphone 4 (My screen doesn't blank out when on a phone call, causing random dialing, enabling speakerphone, etc).
    Here's what otterbox.com says, "Not compatible with WHITE iPhone 4. Due to a slight change of the proximity sensor for the white Apple iPhone 4, the OtterBox Defender Series, Commuter Series, Reflex Series and Impact Series cases will not work with this new device."
    Strange that they say the Commuter and Reflex Series will not work since they do not appear to cover the sensor like the Defender... but not sure it is worth trying.

  • Check your store for White iPhone 4

    Hey all,
    This is for people to respond if they have called their store to confirm if they will or will not have white iPhone 4's, and also how will they be distributed if they do have them? Ex: First come first serve only or available to first people with reserves. *Note that stores will most likely vary, so tell us what you find out! I will be calling my store today after my lunch break because I assume they will ge their stock in around then.

    I just got off the phone with my local Apple store and they said they were not getting them tomorrow and didn't have a date. I called my local radio shack and they said they weren't going to be available for another 2 months.

  • Trade in for white iPhone 4

    So I got my iPhone 4 in September of 2010, is there any way possible I can do like a trade in for the white iPhone 4 without paying a HUGE amount of money!?

    No, Apple does not do trade in's.  You could sell it and put the money towards purchasing a white one.

  • Invisible Shield for white iphone

    I have heard that the invisible shield fluid that comes with the shield turns the white back on the iphone yellow. Does it? I could not find any pictures of a white iphone with the shield on.

    Dr Sly wrote:
    Invisible shield liquid: windex
    iPhone material: acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (some sort of plastic alloy)
    together: may discolor, wear, faint over time
    iPhone by itself: may discolor, wear, faint over time anyways (that's what acrylonitrile butadiene styrene does anyhoo)
    the white iPhone is lose-lose situation over time (much like the white Macbook), unless put in a sleeve or case as often as possible (and cleaned from time to time)
    I have made two attempts to put this shield on my while iPhone (the back side) with no success. I also have no discoloration from the attempted applications though. Perhaps because I cleaned it off right away...

  • I have been using my newly purchased Iphone for Iphonagraphy (Iphone photography).  I would like to sync my Iphone to my external hard drive so I can move photos in and out of my Iphone, to make use of the apps I have exclusively on my phone.

    I want to sync my Iphone with the external hard drive so I can move photos from my phone to the hard drive AND BACK!  I'm using a Windows OS

    You have several options:
    Connect the phone using a cable to your computer. Use the camera and scanner wizard to import the photos from the Camera Roll, then organize them and sync them back to the Photos app (see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083). the Camera Roll is intended for temporary storage only.
    Save the images to your Dropbox account. It's free, http://www.dropbox.com. There's a Dropbox app for the iPhone, and also for Windows, Mac and Linux. Dropbox can also be accessed using a web browser. Dropbox (and similar services) provide cloud-based storage that can be accessed from anywhere.
    Use Photo Stream
    Email or text (MMS) the images to yourself
    Create a Picasa or Shutterfly account, save the images to it, then download to your computer
    I'm sure there are others.

  • Trade black iphone4 for white iphone4?

  • Can i swap black iphone 4 for white iphone 4?

    I am going to take my black iphone 4 back for a replacment because there is a fault in the screen, but i am wondering if instead of getting a black one in return i could have a white one? Please help:)

    Probably not. Typically they replace a defective unit only with the exact same model. But you can ask Apple and see.
    Regards.

  • Exchange Black iPhone4S for a White One?

    I bought my black 16gb iPhone last week and now I want a white one. Can I walk in and exchange it? I wasn't able to reserve the white model last night (apparently not in stock at the store I bought the iPhone). So yeah, is it possible for me to exchange it (despite the site saying there are 'none in stock') ???

    It depends on where you bought it. As long as it hasn't been damaged, most stores will let you exchange within a week or two - some might require you to pay a fee, however. And of course, it depends on availability of the model in the store.

  • ZAGG full body shield not really good for white iPhones

    Ive installed one of these on my old black 3G....its nice until it start peeling cause of lint and dirt catching on the edges...
    Since i got the white 3GS...i tried installing the ZAGG shield...i noticed after a few weeks its turning yellowish...its not a huge deal...but for guys who want to keep the bright white look this might be a let down...it actualy makes it look like the iphone white case is old

    Yeah mine isn't looking that great on my white phone. I've had it like a month and it's a little yellow and the corners are dirty. That's my only real complaint though. It does a great job and protecting the phone itself. Unless you drop it. Which I don't plan to do. I've had all 3 iPhones and I just don't drop them. (fingers crossed. Lol)

  • Exchange Not Syncing for Some iPhone Users

    Hey, everyone!
    So I’m a bit stuck and wondering if anyone else has run into a similar issue. We’re running Exchange 2010 and recently 4 users have had the same issue with their iPhone where it won’t sync their mail automatically. It sync the first time they launch Mail, but
    otherwise, it won’t.
    I’ve experienced similar issues before, and the fix was always to remove the account from the iPhone and then readd it. That caused the first “oddity” where iOS just spun trying to remove the account. The only way we were able to get it to finally remove was
    by using iOS’s “Reset All Settings.”
    So once, I got that done, I went ahead, removed the Exchange account from the phone, then I even went into OWA and removed the device from that user’s profile.
    Finally, I readded the account. It seemed to work for a moment, but then later in the day it stopped working again.
    Now, 90% of my users are on iOS and this is only happening to 4, so it’s definitely isolated. Everyone seems to be on the same version of iOS 7.
    I’ve made sure that all Exchange Services are running and the server has been up for over a month.
    I’m really not sure what to tell these people. To some degree, it doesn’t seem to be a problem on our end, especially given how iOS is being weird about removing the account.
    As I’m sure you know, that doesn’t make people happy.
    Has anyone run into this problem before? What was the solution?
    Thanks!
    -Eric

    Ed:
    Thanks. Your first suggestion is what I did at first, though iOS wouldn't allow them to remove their accounts at first. Apple had to help them restore their phones to get it to do that. (Not sure what was going on there).
    I didn't look at the IIS logs, but what I tried since I was up late on Thursday night was to reboot the server. Whatever issue was going on, that fixed it.
    It's weird because all the services were running and the server acted fine, but it fixed it.
    Suppose I should always take my own advice and just reboot, but taking down Exchange is always a big to-do here. People can't live without their email.
    Anyway... thanks so much for the feedback. If it happens again, I'll check the IIS logs. I didn't think to try that before.
    -Eric

  • Can I trade for white iPhone 4?

    Hi everybody I am a real deal Apple Evangelist and I'm so glad to finally have the iPhone 4. At&t was gonna charge me a $500 deposit for that crap service but Verizon let me in with no problem so I'm loyal and happy. I bought my iPhone on the first of April and I'm kinda ticked off because I really wanted the white one but it's all good. Is it true that the return window is only 14 days? And after April of next year will I be eligible to upgrade to the 5 without paying the full unsubsidized price? But please let me know y'all because I really want the white one but if not I'd like to know if I will be able to upgrade next year and just be a year behind(not quite) which is ok with me.

    Welcome to the Verizon family.  I've been happy (with exception of a couple of days) with it since 1996.  Yes it is true about the 14 day return policy - looks like this is not an option for you now.  You can upgrade after your year but I believe you will want to skip the white and upgrade to the newer generation phone that should be release later this year.  Keep you eyes on the tech forums and "use the force..."
