I changed my iPhone for a refurbished one on apple store and it came broken

I have all possible products of apple and on july I gave to my nephew one iPhone 4, because i had bought a new iphone 5, that used to be mine. It had a broken screen so, when I was traveling to France I payed 149 euros and changed it for a new one. When I got back to Brazil i discovered that my iPhone 4 wasn't turning on. I took it to an authorized store and they told me that my iPhone was liquid damaged. But i didn't even take it of the bag during the trip.
I have already tried switching it in the US but I failed again. Can anyone help me dealing with this situation?
I'm really disappointed with apple, I was about to buy a new Mac but I'm not doing it anymore. I'm going to US on february, Can I try anything there? I dont want to pay the 149 dollars again!

As you say, you can try anything, but whether or not you will get results is another matter.  You are asking the US store to exchange a broken phone from France that you have presumably had for several weeks already.  Of course the ultimate answer is you should have tried it the second you received it.  With that kind of thing I wouldn't even walk out of the store without trying it first.
Take it into a Store in the US.  They can only say no.

    You need to take your phone to an Apple Store in the US. You can purchase an Out of Warranty replacement if the phone is damaged. Cost is $269+ tax.
    You cannot upgrade to a 5S at an Apple store; at best, you can turn in your current phone to get a gift card towards the purchase of another.

  • Will Apple replace my water damaged iPhone for a refurbished one?

    I have an iPhone 4s that fell into a swimming pool recently. The phone hasn't been turning on since then.
    I live in India, but the phone is a gift from my friend who lives in Hong Kong. Will Apple be able to exchange my phone for a refurbished one if I send it to Hong Kong?
    I have read on forums that Apple will replace the phone for 199$, but I want to be sure about this before sending it to my friend in Hong Kong. Any help will be appreciated!

    From this very website (drill down from the "Support" tab at the top of this screen):
    Out-of-Warranty Service     If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.

    Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
                     iPhone 5
    $269

    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax.
    When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorization for the maximum service fee listed above.  This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.  However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

  • Out of order Ipod(under warranty), changed for a new one at apple store but battery half full? is it normal?

    My appel touch 5thG did not work (still under warranty), so at the Apple store, they told us  that they give us a new one, but coming back home, I noticed that battery was half full, so I guess it is not a new one. Is it normal, or should they give a new one?Thanks

    Apple satys:
    If you want to store your device long term, two key factors will affect the overall health of your battery: the environmental temperature and the percentage of charge on the battery when it’s powered down for storage. Therefore, we recommend the following:
    Do not fully charge or fully discharge your device’s battery — charge it to around 50%. If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding a charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
    Power down the device to avoid additional battery use.
    Place your device in a cool, moisture-free environment that’s less than 90° F (32° C).
    If you plan to store your device for longer than six months, charge it to 50% every six

  • I work for company and we use HTC phones .. We are thinking of changing to iPhone...  We use destiny pens and have been advised that apple blocks the Bluetooth for this device... Why

    I work for company and we use HTC phones about a hundred  .. We are thinking of changing to iPhone...  We use destiny pens and have been advised that apple blocks the Bluetooth for this device... Why...?

    Apple doesn't "block" that device. They just don't support the Bluetooth profiles the Destiny pen requires. You can see the Bluetooth profiles included in iOS here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647
    and the profiles required for the pen here:
    http://www.destinywireless.com/flash/#/thedigitalpen/compatibility/bluetooth_com patibilty/
    Perhaps another pen such as the A4 Smart Pen would work for you in place of the Destiny device:

  • Why my apple care for iphone doesn't transfer to my new phone after I claim a new one from apple store ?

    2 days ago my iphone fall into a sink full of water. Yesterday I went to apple store and ask for apple care for iphone and they have it. So, I bought it and registered it right away since my iphone still be in a garentee and still not surpass one year usage. Then they told me that my iphone problem considered in a "physical damage case" which they have a policy for claiming a new iphone and pay some fee. After I got my new iphone, they said that all the information and phone data which is registered into apple system about the phone and the user and bla bla bla will transfer to my new iphone. Today, I just check my phone serial number in "support & coverage " column and I found that all the phone data in apple system is already transfered from the old one to the new one EXCEPT the data of apple care that I already registered before I claimed the new phone. Now, the question is " What can I do ? " and " will it be transferd to my new iphone or I have to buy a new apple care for my NEW PHONE That I got from their service "

    Placing your iPhone in the toilet was the correct thing to do but you should have purchased an android phone instead. That would have solved these issues. :-)

  • If my iphone 5  have problems , apple  is going to change this iphone for a new iphone 5 or 5c 5s?

    if my iphone 5  have problems , apple  is going to change this iphone for a new iphone 5 or 5c 5s?

    but if i pay something more thay can change this iiphone 5 for a 5s?
    No, not for a warranty or out of warranty replacement.  Any iOS device will be replaced with an identical device.  Heck, Apple still has original iPhone service units in stock for out of warranty replacement and battery replacement of 1st generation iPhones from 2007.

  • I have bought an iPhone 4S in Brazil and I would like to know if I can replace my old iPhone for a new one (iPhone 5S), at some Apple Store in USA, if I pay just the difference between both values.

    I have bought an iPhone 4S in Brazil and I would like to know if I can replace my old iPhone for a new one (iPhone 5S), at some Apple Store in USA, if I pay just the difference between both values.

    You're welcome.
    I would advise against that for the reasons I provided.
    Could I have my iPad 2 for the new one paying the difference between their values?
    No. Sell the existing yourself and use the proceeds to purchase a new iPad.

    They should have one in Stock, but you never know. Call your Apple Store and tell them you have an iPhone 5 color and GB, and that you most likely will need a replacement, do they have any in Stock. If yes, go in, if not ask for advice on how to handle your problem.
