How do you know if your iPhone 4 has a broken charging port?

A few weeks ago I was issued a new iPhone because of a hardware problem with my old one. When I took my new one home I immediately realized that it had some problems charging. I have 3 different chargers, and none of them worked. They all worked with my iPad and my friend's iPhone. They occasionally work but last night they all completely stopped. Is this a problem with my phone? If I take it into apple, will they fix it and how much will they charge? Thanks!

If it is within the warranty period for the replacement
phone, they should just do a swap at no charge as
long as they determine that there was no physical
damage done to the phone.

  • How do you know when your iphone 4s is done charging if your phone is turned off?

    Does it have to be turned on to see if it's hit 100%? I have an older generation Ipod that has a battery symbol when charging and you know it's 100% charged when all the bars are full- it comes up as an icon on the screen. This is my first time charging the phone since I got it so just nervous if it's actually charging.

    If you plug your iPhone in to charge, even if it is turned off, it will turn on.
    However, if you turn it off during a charge, there will be no notification that it has completed its charge.

  • How do you know if your Iphone app is connecting to the internet?

    I'm a brand new Iphone user and I have a question about apps.  I only have the smallest data plan.  I'm wondering how do you know if your app (or any app you download) once opened connects to the internet?
    For instance I have a Netflix subscription.  When I hit the Netflix app is that connecting to the internet?  When I watch a movie or tv in my own que is that still on the internet?
    Or what about the Kindle app or iBooks?  Is it on the internet to read?
    Those are just two small examples.  I'm having a hard time figuring out which apps to download based on if they connect to the internet for their use.

    As a general rule, if the app stores all of its data locally on your phone, a data connection is not needed for that app to function properly. If the app does not store data locally on your phone...streaming apps(Netflix), the built in Maps app, etc., a data connection will be required for the app to function properly. You can minimize your cellular data usage by only using such apps when connected to available WiFi. You also have the ability to turn cellular data completely off in settings: Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data>Off. Best to completely read an apps description before installing such on your phone. If a data connection is required for the app to function, it will state such in the app's description.

  • How do you tell if your iphone has been hacked?

    How do you tell if you iphone has been hacked? I have an iphone 3GS and I've gotten text messages from 2 different people that i don't know, telling me they can't see the pics that I've sent them & wanting to know what the pics are of. One of the numbers had been part of a group message that I recieved from a friend. I just thought she ended up responding back to me by mistake thinking she was sending a message to the originater of the group message.Then a couple weeks later i got another text from a person I have never contacted wanting to know who I was & why I was sending multimedia messages that she couldn't open. Just trying to figure out what is going on. If I postd this on the wrong group, please let me know which one I need to post this on. Thanks.

    Well that's good to know. As far as I know the phone has not been jailbroken, unless it was done before I bought it. I purchased it used from an individual who said it was restored to factory defaults.
    It just concerns me that people are texting me telling me that I'm sending them pics that they can't open. I've checked my bill online & nothing shows up that shouldn't be there.

  • HT1430 How do you know if your ipod has been reset?

    I am having trouble with my ipod touch.  It is a 4th generation.  When I unplug it from my computer it goes black after about 10 seconds.  It will not come on until I plug it into the computer.  What is going on with it?  Can anyone help?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How do you know if the iPhone...

    How do you know if the iPhone that I bought new in fact it is a refurbished product?
    Since I upgraded to the latest version of IOS, is worse. The wi-fi does not work anymore, 3G network makes it even more hard to get, some apps that should work, close or take a long time to load, even the screen to make phone calls has long recharge times. Do you have suggestions? Thank you!
    E' possibile sapere se l'iPhone che hai acquistato per nuovo in realtà è un prodotto ricondizionato?
    Da quando l'ho aggiornato all'ultima versione di IOS, è peggiorato. Il wi-fi non funziona più, la rete 3G fà ancora più fatica a ricevere, alcune app che dovrebbero funzionare, si chiudono o ci mettono molto tempo per caricarsi, perfino la schermata per telefonare ha tempi di ricarica lunghi. Avete suggerimenti? Grazie!

    Hi, thank you for having responded to me so quickly. Excuse me instead for the delay with which you answer.
    I tried "lifetime" or a similar word in my preferences panel but I could not find. I have the software in Italian.
    I attach screens. You see something that might look like the "lifetime"? Thank you very much!

  • How do you know if your computer is running 64 Bit?

    How do you know if your computer is running 64 Bit?

    That's actually a kind of complicated question. Strictly speaking, there's no such thing as "running 64-bit".
    That aside, Intel Core 2 Duo processors and late-model Xeons all have chips that have the Intel EM64T instructions set (64-bit extensions developed by AMD and later adopted by Intel), so they are capable or executing those added 64-bit instructions.
    In the Leopard OS, most of the system software has been compiled to make use of 64-bit libraries, but at the same time, 32-bit versions are included for compatibility with pre-Leopard software. So, at any given time you can have software running that uses only the 32-bit instructions, or uses the 64-bit instructions.
    Now, albeit the 64-bit libraries are capable of addressing a 64-bit address space, until recently, iMacs and Mac notebooks used Intel chipsets (not the CPU, but the chips that connect the CPU to the other parts of the computer) couldn't address more than the 32-bit address space (a portion of which was reserved, which is why you couldn't use more than 3G of RAM in those Macs).
    So, based on that you can ask these questions to see if you are running in 64-bits:
    Is the computer a G5 Power PC, Xeon, or Core 2 Duo CPU? If no, you are 32-bit, else go on...
    Are you using OS X 10.5 or later? If no, you are 32-bit, else go on...
    Does the application "require OS X 10.5 or later" or does it advertise that it's a "64-bit" application? If no, the application is probably 32-bit.
    On OS X 10.5 and later, most of the pre-installed Apple-branded software uses the 64-bit versions of the libraries, so they can be said to be "64-bit".

  • How do you know when your MacBook is infected?

    Hey All. Well my question is how do you know when your MacBook is infected with a virus? I came off windows and i have norton antivirus so i have something to tell me there. But on the Mac OS you rarely get viruses and i dont have a anitvirus program, so how do you know when you have one? And what does it do?
    Thanks!

    Since no ones got one that I know of it is hard to say. I figure that when the day comes that someone writes a Mac virus you will know real quick what happens. If your concerned you could use ClamXav. I use it if I download something for my wife's PC but have never found anything yet.
