IPhone 5 - gap between display and metal frame

Hello, I have an iPhone 5 black and I found out that on top between metal frame and display is a gap where I can fit a paper. Is it okay? What should I do?

Have the same issue & plan to send to Apple to replace/repair. Was wondering if you know by chance how long this fix will take?
(Tried to reopen my support case to ask Apple directly but it keeps failing to open)
Thanks.

Hi chuck72352,
after you have sorted your data, you can use the InRange Function. Combined with a "search 1D Array" you'll get the range you really want.

Gap between glass and metal band.

I have a really thin gaps between the glass and metal band in the upper front and back right corner, and was wondering if anyone else has noticed small gaps between the glass and metal band anywhere on their phone. ive had nothing but crappy customer service at both apple stores near me, but was eventually told by the "genius" that i could come back with another appointment before the 30 days and swap for a new retail phone in the box.
The only thing that worries me is getting a whole new phone with more different problems then the one i have with only the gap issue. The "genius" also told me that im the first one that has had this issue, yet ive seen threads about a month or so ago with people saying they had the same issue. so as an update, has anyone noticed this now?

ya, but this isnt the first time ive had bad customer service with apple. Granted it was a different apple store, but about 3 days after i bought the phone i made an appointment, and took it in for the same separation issue. This time the guy seemed almost clueless as he had to ask his co workers questions i was asking him. Thankfully a manager overheard the situation and informed him that it was an issue that needed to be taken care of. So the guy goes to the back, comes out with a phone from the black box (At the time i had no clue of how the black boxes worked), and i ask if it was a new or refurbished phone, and he assured me it was a new one.
So after inspecting the phone i noticed another gap in the glass and told the worker and he replies with "its not that bad, i dont think yours was that bad either". after seeing the same issue and getting his response, i decided to just keep mine and make a different appointment at another store (Today). Oh, might I add that after we leave the store, my girlfriend tells me that as i picked up the phone to inspect it, the guy rolls his eyes. Just experiences like these leave a biter taste in my mouth. its sad that a couple experiences from non corporate workers would make me start to dislike a company.

A slight gap between display and the aluminium housing

I just bought an iMac 2 months ago. Recently, while dusting off the display, I noticed a slight opening (about 2mm) between the display and the housing on the top side of my iMac. I worry that dust might accumulate inside the display over time.
Has anyone seen something similar on their iMac? Could this be a defect?
Regards.

Yeah, it's a defect alright. Just over the weekend, a yellow vertical line appeared towards the middle of my screen. I think this might be permanent, and somehow related to the slight opening on my iMac.
Called Apple Support. Was hoping they would exchange the entire machine for me, but no such luck

Gap between display rubber seal and case

A few days ago I got my MBP 13" shipped. (mid 2010 version)
Soon after unpacking I spotted a little gap between the black rubber line and the aluminum frame on top of the screen. The gap is approx. 0,3mm wide in the middle and covers 2/3 of the top of the screen's top. The other borders and the corners are fine; not even the slightest gap between rubber and frame.
Here's a picture of it: (You can see dust that already got into the gap on the right side)
http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/3273/p1060268.jpg
Is this something to worry about? Does it affect the hold of the display or would dust be able to get behind the glass?
If not, I'm perfectly fine with it. I really love my MacBook just how it is. I'm only concerned about possible risks. The MacBook has to endure some years now after all

I visited an ASP today. They said it's nothing to worry about

Xperia z3 D6603 concern over gaps between glass and frame.

Hello,
I recently upgraded my ion to z3. And there is no doubt that it's an amazing phone.
But I have some concerns regarding the small gaps between glass panel and metal frame. It gets dust and more over that I am worried about its waterproofing. I want to know is it normal for all z3 out there or is it just me? What if it can't handle water in this regard?
There are some pictures.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This subject has been mentioned many times before, from the Z all the way thru the models up to the Z3.......you have to have some uniform gap between the panels & the bezel...this is to allow some form of expansion due to temp changes, if you think about it.......if it was packed tight & the phone heats up the expansion would have nowhere to go resulting in damage. The gaps do not mean that you have a waterproof issue either.....
Hope this helps

Optimizing iPhone battery life: Between charges and before replacement

FYI. An excellent iPhone battery care article by iPhoneAtlas.com:
Optimizing iPhone battery life: Between charges and before replacement
http://www.iphoneatlas.com/2007/07/09/optimizing-iphone-battery-life-between-cha rges-and-before-replacement/

OK, I agree that is a completely false statement. The rest of the article is pretty good.
If you assume a linear decrease in battery charge for each full cycle (which it really isn't, but much easier to model in a spreadsheet). Then 80% of original charge after 400 full cycles is approximately 0.8% loss in battery charge per full charge cycle (again this is a simplification, stay with me). This means that after 400 cycles, you are at approximately 80% of your original total charge level. As stated by Apple.
So, extrapolating that out to EOL (end of life) which Apple assumes to be 50% battery charge, it would take approximately 1,000 full charge cycles for your battery to be EOL (according to Apple). It would actually be slightly less than that since it won't be a linear function.
For me, that's 2 to 4 years of use depending on whether or not I continue using the iPhone as much as I have this first full week.

Playback of clips only plays between 4 and 12 frames

Hi all,
I am fairly new to Premiere, have used After Effects CS4 to produce some clips, but need something that handles editing better, and I thought I would give Premiere CS4 a try.
Unfortunately, I can't get Source or Sequence preview working. I click the play button and the video plays for about 1/2 to 1/4 or a second (between 4 and 16 frames) and then stops, returning to the place where I hit play. Almost like I had selected an in and out of 14 frames and hit "play in to out".
The duration of the playback is random, but never more than a full second.
The computer I am on is:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
OS: Snow Leopard 10.6.2
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Chipset Model: GeForce 8600M GT
Bus: PCIe
VRAM (Total): 256 MB
Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de)
RAM Size: 4 GB
Type: DDR2 SDRAM 667 MHz
HDD: 500Gb 7200RPM (50% empty)
Apple system updater says I am up to date.
I have Adobe Premiere CS4 installed (trial) 4.2.1 (003 (MC: 166418))
Adobe Updater says I am up to date.
I have done the following to try and resolve:
* Tried different source files (mp4, mov)
* Tried rendering a video in After Effects CS4 as MOV H264 and importing
* Tried putting still frames on the time line and playing those (no effects, no transitions)
* Tried playing no video, just music
* Ensure that "clear all markers" is done on the source and preview monitors
* Ensure loop is not playing
* Force in and out markers to a 5 second clip and press play
* Full deinstall and reinstall of all adobe products (I had some CS3 left overs that I cleaned out)
* Deleted all adobe application preferences folders before reinstall
* Deleted plugin cache
* Created new projects and tried all the above.
I have tried shutting down every other program before running Premiere, it is definitely not a resources problem, there is 3Gb of RAM free and CPUs sitting at 5% when I try this.
I am looking at buying Premiere, but if I can't get playback to work it's a bit of a waste
Anyway, any help or pointers would be appreciated!
Mikel

Thanks everyone for the long thread and lots of comments, unfortunately I have tried them all.
I even purchased a full copy of Premiere Pro (as part of a Masters collection set) and this still has not fixed the problem.
The screen recording of my problem is exactly the same as the one linked to here: Screen Recording 2 720p.mov, and I am also going to open a support ticket with Adobe.
Another point is that it even does not work on a tiny video that I used (320 x 240px) Still same problems.
This is very frustrating.
It should be noted that After Effects and Encore both play videos fine in a similar situation, it is just Premiere that is bombing out.
See the first post for my configuration, it is still the same, except now I own a full copy of Premiere Pro as part of CS4 Masters collection.
Any further ideas?
Mikel

I've broken my iPhone 4, my frontal display and the back screen so, I'd like to know how much is to change it ?

The state of the warranty no longer matters since accidental damage itself voids the warranty. Apple calls replacement due to damage an out-of-warranty replacement so there is no misunderstanding about that. And they take it just a little further by saying if you try and repair it yourself, then they won't have anything to do with the iPhone ever again. They are pretty emphatic about what they will and will not do in the way of replacing.
You can, of course, take the iPhone to an Apple Authorized Repair Service and see if they will replace the screen and back and how much that would cost. That way Apple will still deal with you if necessary.

PLMD_AUDIT - Toggle between Display and Change - Important!!

Hello all,
I've a problem when I work on PLMD_AUDIT.
Pre-requisite for replicating the issue.
1> Change the settings in PLMD_AUDIT (a face like icon) to Display mode
When I run PLMD_AUDIT for an Audit with Action, it displays me the "Grouping" field and the "Involved Persons" tab values correctly.
But when I toggle from Display to Change, the value in "Grouping" and the "Involved Persons" tab vanishes.
Can you please check in your system and let me know if you also face this issue?
Thank you in advance,
Vaishnavi

Hello Keerthi,
Thanks for your reply.
Please follow the below mentioned steps.
1) Change your time zone to a different time zone other than the created time zone of the action.
say if action has been created in London time zone, change system zone to some other than London.
2) Change the Settings in PLMD_AUDIT tcode (face like icon) to Display
3) Open any audit WITH ACTION.
4) When you double click on Action inside the audit, the action will be opened in Display mode.
5) Now toggle between Display and Change.
6) Kindly check if the values in the "Grouping field" and BUPA roles in "Involved Persons" tab are present now after toggling?
Please let me know at the earliest.
Your assistance is highly appreciated in this regard.
Thanks in advance,
Vaishnavi

Iphone 5 rotates between vertical and horizontal modes, but does not flip vertically.

New Iphone 5 rotates between vertical and horizontal modes, but does not flip vertically.
Tried restarting, checked the lock, gyroscope.

Hey Oprion,
Thanks for the question and congrats on your new iPhone 5c. The orientation of your iPhone will depend on the application you are using. For example, most of the built in applications only support the three main orientations (Horizontal, Vertical, Horizontal), whereas the Voice Memo’s application will operate “upside down” for easier access to the microphone.

Satellite P - Dust grain between display and front

Hello.
After some weeks suddently i have a dust grain between display and front glas.
how can it get there and I must therefore send in the notebook to service?
Greetings from germany and sorry about my bad english.

Hi
I think its difficult to say something about this but I think in this case you can do nothing. The only chance is contacting an authorized service provider because the technicians can disassemble the notebook and check this case. If you disassemble the notebook yourself you will loose the warranty so I wouldnt do this
If you dont know where is the nearest ASP you can search here:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Find an authorized service provider
Just contact the technicians. You will see that its interesting to talk with them a little bit and they are friendly. ;)

Gap between glass and bezel on iPhone 5?

http://www.flickr.com/photos/78962116@N07/8405746907/in/photostream/
See the link above (theres a picture) for the image.
So guys, I purchased my iPhone 5 this Saturday and, having not dropped, banged, or anything of the sort to my phone since then, I noticed this gap between the glass pane at the top of the phone's back and the bezel surrounding the device.
I am so completely OCD about things like this, and so everytime I pick up my phone, I have to look at it... I hate it. I have looked at several other white iPhone 5s in person, and none have this issue. I am debating wether to take it to the Apple Store or not.
Also, the sleep/wake and volume buttons feel extremely loose and they were not on either of the other devices I held.

What if I purchased the phone from an AT&T store, not an Apple Store? Will that affect anything? And how long do I have the warranty until (I have a normal warranty, not extended)?
^Sorry for all the questions!

Gap between screen and bezel should i take it back to apple?

Theres a noticable between the screen and the metal bezel, its currently working fine but i dont want the screen to die or the inside to collect up dust over the years. I only recently purchased the red nano and want this to last for a long while. Is it worth it to bring back to the apple store to get this replaced or are all nanos like this with a gap between the screen and bezel (just towards the bottom of the screen only) thank

You are very welcome, and good luck getting this resolved. Things like damage and scratches have been brought up on here by users in the past with devices and Apple has been pretty good about dealing with the issues.
