IPhone bought from operator in country I'm not in now - can it be warranty-serviced here?
Hello, I have iPhone 5 model MD297DN/A bought from Austria T-mobile, Repairs and Service Coverage: Active. I'm in Czech Republic for some time now. It is SIM-locked to Austrian T-Mobile and I use roaming. I do not want to travel back and service it there (bad button). Do you think I can go to official APPLE service in Czech Rep. to have my iPhone serviced? That would help me. Thank for answers.
I believe that Austria is part of the EU so you can go to any Apple owned store in an EU country for warranty service.
BUT... If I understand your post correctly. Your phone is locked to T-Mobile in Austria. Only they can unlock it for use with other carriers. You will need to contact T-Mobile to find out if they have an unlocking policy and if you qualify.

I've bought a iphone 5c from USA but the headset is not working properly its still in warranty,can i go for replacement of headset??
Since it is only the headset that is the problem and not the iPhone it would be better to just buy a new set and not let yourself be frustrated over it. If you send anything to your sister before the one-year warranty is over, include the headset so she can exchange it at an Apple store.

I have bought a IPhone 4 from Malaysia, my home button is not working. I want to replace the phone under warranty but all service centres mention that its country specific and I need to get it replaced only at malaysia. Can anyone guide me what to do????
The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
and I am not aware of them assisting with an iPhone from
outside India -
i recently bought a new iphone 5s from UAE , but unfortunately i did not find the facetime on my new iphone, how come that i bought a new iphone with missing options , please help
Your earlier phone must have been originally intended for sale in another country and must have been purchased from somewhere other than an authorized Apple retailer. Phones that are intended to be sold in the UAE have FaceTime permanently disabled. The option is not there and cannot be made to work.

Can i use IPHONE bought from America in INDIA
I want to clarify a doubt whether an IPHONE bought from America can work in India..
Only if you want to roam on an AT&T account. The iPhone in the USA is locked to work only with an AT&T SIM.

My iPhone is from Israel and was locked to Orange. Now I'm in the UK and Orange here tell me it's locked exclusively to Orange in Israel. Can an iPhone be unlocked from a country without getting re-locked each time an update is downloaded?
If the iphone is locked to Orange in Israel then only Orange in Israel can authorise Apple to release the lock .No one else
However if you look here Orange in Israel appear not to lock iPhones they sell

If I bought Iphone in USA, can I get warranty service in UK?
Hi, I bought my Iphone 6 in USA, moved to Argentina, where I have no Apple warranty Service for IPhone. I´m traveling to UK next month. Can I get warranty service In UK for my IPhone? When I get to Genius Bar to get an appointment , I receive a sign saying to try another location. Don´t understand.
According to Apple:
If the product is portable, meaning that it can operate independently without a power cord, you may obtain warranty service worldwide. However, service will be limited to the options available in the country where service is requested

I purchased my iphone 4s from US, my lock button is not working, I need to get it repaired in India. Please suggest
There is nothing you can do except take it back to the US. The warranty is not international and no authorized service center will touch your US phone in India.

I just updated my Iphone 3GS from 4.3.3 to 6.1. Now is says that my SIM Card is not supported by my carrier. I called Rogers and he says to restore my phone. But I can't get there is it won't recognize my phone. Help!
Insert a SIM from a supported carrier.
Where did the phone come from, it sounds like the device has been hacked or jailbroken to be unlocked and updating has re locked to the original carrier. It is also possible that the SIM simply needs to be reseated or replaced. -
Hello I am from Turkey. I have an iPhone 6 from Dubai. But it has not face time do you have any idea about it ?
You cannot use FaceTime on that iPhone. Use Skype or similar program, or
sell that iPhone and buy one in Turkey.
