My iphone 4s is cracked at the bottom of the screen and it's in black, if i get a replacement phone for it can i get it in white instead?

I have a black iphone 4s and it's cracked/chipped at the right corner of the screen. The damage isn't too bad, but it's still not perfect in any way. I have apple care on it and I was wondering that if I was going to get a replacement phone for it and pay 50$ can i get the white iphone 4s instead?

If you want the iPhone in a different color, you can buy one at full retail price.  The $299 price is subsidized from your carrier and you will be very unlikely to qualify for another subsidized device.

  • I have an iPhone 4s that is still covered under the AppleCare Protection Plan. I have a pretty significant crack across the screen and wanted to know if I have to pay any additional fees to replace the screen or replace the entire phone.

    I have an iPhone 4s that is still covered under the AppleCare Protection Plan. I have a pretty significant crack across the screen and wanted to know if I have to pay any additional fees to replace the screen or replace the entire phone.
    I was hesitant to purchase this protection plan at first about $70, but the customer service agent reassured me that there were no deductables and thats why I bought into it. But now that I look around on the support site, I see that it says that there are up to two incidents covered for a service fee of $49. Did I really get duped?

    If the issue is a manufacturing defect, there is no cost to have the device replaced.
    If the issue is a result of user damage (like a cracked screen) and you have AppleCare+ Apple will replace the device for the minimal fee of $49.  They will do this up to two times during the timeframe of the protection plan.
    If the issue is the result of user damage and you do not have AppleCare+ then the Out of Warranty replacement cost is $199 for the 4S.
    No, you were not duped, you were simply not completely informed.  Whether that was a result of them not sharing all the information or you only hearing what you wanted, no one here knows.

  • When I click on my mail icon, the page flies across the screen and gives me a new altered email page with no menu for preferences, etc.  How do I change that?

  • My ipod has lines all over the screen and would there be any way to get that fixed?

    My I pod touch has lines all over the screen and I was wondering if there would be any way to get that fixed?

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a hardware problem:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If stil problem you very likely have a hardware problem. 
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    A third-party place may be less expensive. Here is one.

    When this happens, tap the screen twice with three fingers. The zoom may go out.
    After that, go to Settings>General>Acessibility and then disable the "Zoom" option

  • Woes of the Z10, and now i want to use it as a backup phone for my contacts and data. Can I?

    Ok, this has been a real nightmare. I am an extensive user of BB since OS4. Wanted to try the new Z10, so I got myself a spanking new one. With my prior experience in switching devices, it would be a cinch. Transfer device over via blackberry desktop software, change the emails via BIS, and I'm all sorted out. 
    OMG dear blackberry. You made me jump through so many hoops I felt like a circus dog.
    Blacberry desktop doesn't work with the Z10. No one told me. I had to find out the hard way after not being able to detect the phone. wasted half an hour of my life. Downloaded Blackberry link. Transferred my contacts and everything over, couldn't be happier.
    Hurrah, thought the nightmare was done. It was just starting.
    Micro sim. Not everyone has a microsim cutter lying around. Great. Troop off to the shop. Figured after I get the sim cut, I could also transfer the emails via BIS server. So that's what I did. (oh by the way, having to buy a micro SD card was also a pain in the A but still acceptable). The BIS server detected the change in device so it disabled my emails. No problem. Until the technician told me at the store-sorry-BIS DOESNT WORK WITH Z10. Whaaaaat? Come on blackberry! Now its just normal emails, similar to that of iphone and samsung. Emails were your best feature. Ok, this I can stomach. What I cannot stomach is...blackberrry, you just killed your frequent traveller who needs international roaming. BIS emails and BBM was wonderful. I could get by travelling from country to country on 50mb a month unlimited. Apparently not anymore. I need a full fledged international roaming plan that will cost me an arm and a leg. This is insane. 
    Finally I had the Z10 working. I manually entered all my emails. ( i have 9 emails. Thank god they are all gmail based, especially for work, if not I would have ripped all my hair out). For the whole 2 hours, I looked at it and hated it. It was hard to use, I had to keep swiping up and to the right, sometimes it wouldn't swipe well, sometimes I couldn't tell if it was swiping or not. Neither did it help that Whatsapp hasn't even been sorted out on the Z10. Whatsapp is my life. My family's on it. My friends are on it. My suppliers and my customers are on it. Oh wait. Z10-well, you can download it from the appworld, but it doesn't install. Thinking it was a problem with the downloads, I kept at it..only to have the technician tell me, "sorry, Whatsapp not working on Z10, too bad"...anyway I made up my mind to go back to the Torch. So thinking it would be as simple as changing the hub ID on the Z10 and then reactivating the Torch. All will be well. Wrong. 
    I had to run to another tel shop to beg for a spare sim shell so I could stick the micro sim into it and have it back as a normal sim. Another 2 hours of my life later, I realise-changing the hub ID on the Z10 doesn't change anything. It doesn't mean you can just use the original hub Id and all systems are go on the first phone. Changing the hub ID means changing the original one. Argh. This was so frustrating especially when the BIS server refused to switch back to the old device. Ever clicked on detect device 200 times? Well that would be me. Eventually I figured it out. Change back to the old hub ID, security wipe the horrible thing, log in with the original hub ID and reset the device via BIS server. Finally, order is restored.
    Which leads me to my question. I am thinking of porting over my contact list and data to the Z10, and using it as another phone in another country. However I want to use a different Id from my Torch since it is considered a different device but with the same data. Will blackberry link allow me to do this, or will it only switch the data provided the hub ID is the same?
    Blackberry, hand over heart, I'll use the Torch till it dies ( I just changed out the nav pad cause it was completely worn out and would act wonky in sunlight- I call it the blackberry vampire version) and after that I'm off to another smart phone platform. You've made my life miserable. It was great while it lasted, but I'm going to be migrating to another platform eventually. Thanks for the memories.

    Hello,
    BlackBerry 10 has always been advertised as a revolutionary change from prior...not an evolution. And you have both now learned the hard way just how detailed that change is. As with so many things, the assumptions made from past experience with BB are not useful for this very significant change. Rather, research done prior to purchase is the most useful activity one can undertake.
    For BB10, BIS is not required. Indeed, on some carriers, having BIS on the account actually impedes some services for BB10. BB10 uses a full on-device ActiveSync client for email now. BIS-handled email is gone...as are "hosted" email accounts (though you can get 1-year of forwarding).
    Migrating of data from old to new involves many choices before beginning. For example, if you are not afraid of placing your Calendar and Contact data "into the cloud", the Z10 can excellently synchronize that against many different providers (many more than BIS ever could). Done correctly, one can attain full end-to-end OTA synchronization of Calendar/Contact data between Outlook desktop client (and perhaps others, though I've not tested), a Z10, a PlayBook, and more (for me, I've got 2 Outlook client instances, one Z10, one PB, and one Droid...all working beautifully OTA).
    Traveling is no more challenging than in the past...your specific device must be able to function on the networks upon which you wish to roam...this is no different from before (e.g., a GSM-only device simply cannot roam on a CDMA network). To compare specifics, I've found this useful:
    http://www.bbin.in/en/2013/03/03/4-types-blackberry-z10-models-fits-better/?utm_campaign=4-types-of-...
    There are many other differences...but please try to let go of what was before, for pretty much none of it applies anymore. BB10 is revolutionarily different from before.
    Good luck!

  • I am getting error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone".  I have deleted the backup and restarted my computer, but continue to get this error message.  What do I need to do now?

    I have recently updated my phone and am attempting to sync it.  I got the error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone".  I deleted the backup, restarted my computer, and even restored the iPhone, but continue to get the same error message.  What do I need to do now?

    iTunes places the iPhone backup in the following location. Navigate there & delete everything in the backup folder, but not the folder itself. You will have to turn on "Show All Hidden Files & Folders" to see it:
    Mac:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

    No, you don't have a virus, but if that folder has a flashing '?', it means your Mac can't find its' system:

  • I dropped my ipod 2nd Generation, and now the screen turned white   there're many cracks in the screen. But im pretty sure the touchscreen still works. Is there any way my screen can work again? so that it isn't white? pls help

    Please help

    I'm in no way an iPod technician - but I have the same model as you.  If you have cracks in the screen, I'm pretty sure you need to get the screen replaced.  You can see what's involved by looking here:
    http://www.rapidrepair.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=cp-ipodtouch2g
    Unless you're already an electronic technician, you'd be better off having it repaired.
    Having said that, you might compare the repair price with what a newer iPod Touch would cost you.  Here's just one sample page with pricing:
    http://www.amazon.com/iPod-Computers/b?ie=UTF8&node=13660271
    If you buy a used one, it might be just a little more than the repair cost.
    (.....strange - I just came here to the forum to ask a questioin about my own iPod 2nd gen device, which I might be replacing with a newer one....)

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences, but not Bookmarks and history''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    A few months back I Dropped my iPhone 4 and I cracked my screen and now i cant unlock my phone due to touch screen not working plus there are blurred lines across the screen and I can't see anything that it displays.
    Now when I try too connect my iPhone 4 to iTunes on my computer at home an error message comes up saying that I have to unlock my iPhone 4 for it to communicate to my device.
    But the problem is that I can't unlock my iPhone 4 because I'm unable to see the key pad and my touch screen no longer responds when I touch it.
    I just want to reset my iPhone 4 back to its Factory Settings & start all over from the beginning.
    How can I unlock my iPhone 4 with iTunes on my computer or any other option you suggest me trying.
    Thank you in advance,

    If you have had a "local guy "repair your iphone you will not get any support from Apple for warranty OR post warranty
    If Verizon return it to Apple it wil not be handled by Apple
    If Verizon also use unauthorised repairers you may be lucky
    (Apple do not sell parts to local guys or anyone else )

  • Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch.  :(

    Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch. 

    There's generally no reason to be closing them that way at all. The apps you see in the recents bar are just that, apps that you used recently. Most of them are doing absolutely nothing. The only apps that are really doing anything in the background are ones that play music and ones that are using location services. Just leave them be.
    Best of luck.

  • My iPhone 3G has a dark verticle line from top to bottom on the screen and no home screen, why , and what do I do to fix it?

    As stated above, it is also fully charged and I reset it by holding down home and top button. This is my old phone and was given to my nephew to use as a iPod to play games. It is not being used as a phone, I have the five. He showed it to me on FaceTime and it originally had several stripes about one quarter inch wide, grey and dark grey and verticle top to bottom. After I had him reboot it by holding down the two buttons, it just has one stripe down the middle vertically. Is it dead? It's way out of Apple Care. Also he says the home key doesn't work but he activated some other " button" that appears on the screen and acts like the home key. I have no idea what this is. Thanks for any help. Jon

    "What is this from and how do I get rid of it?"
    Such symptoms bode serious hardware issues and you shouldn't think about fixing it yourself when you are still in waranty. Get to an Apple Store, like the other poster suggests.

  • HT4061 My phone has horizantal lines in the screen and i cant see nothing on it , also tried to reset by phone and computer,  ( nothing,)  I used to tap on it and it would work , not no more and now i broke the glass in front and cracked the back . what n

    My phone has lines from top to bottom  the screen has nothing , I tried to reset it many times also tried to reset with computer and nothing. I used to tap on it and sometimes it worked but not no more , I even broke the screen and cracked the back  so now what ??? this I-phone 4 is the worst phone i have had . I started with the first I-phone  tthen the second and third and they were all good , in fact my kids have them now . Since I got the I-phone 4 nothing but problems.and its only A little over A year since i got it

    I am having the same issue.  ** MY IPHONE IS TURNING OFF RANDOMLY ** and it's driving me crazy. 
    THE SYMPTOM... I am using my phone fine and then when I go to send a text, take a photo, etc, it just turns off. This started a few weeks ago after upgrading to the new IOS.  The 'symptoms' increased in frequency and my phone started turning off more frequently.   I took my Iphone to the apple store. They reset the phone to factory standards and the problem still exists.
    THE PROBLEM: The guy at the Genius Bar said he knows there is a known software issue, and this looks like it's affected my processor.  BUT this was only after I told him that I have been reading about a lot of other people having the same problem.
    THE SOLUTION:  Are you having the same issue? ... Reply to this post and let me know.   If a lot of people are having the same problem, Apple will probably just swap out the phones.  My phone is in mint condition except for the new 'problem' its having after I upgraded my software.
