Sent iPhone 3g into apple for repair

I sent my iphone 3g into apple for the display separating from the bezel and I just had some questions. This is what the status looks like:
Step 1 - Request
Product received (19-May-2010)
Step 2 - Service
Issue identified (20-May-2010)
Step 3 - Return
Product replacement pending (20-May-2010)
My question is how long does it take for the product replacement pending take? And does that mean I am getting a new refurbished iphone? I called applecare to ask but the guy said nothing for half the time and said um a lot. So apparently he was kind of clueless if you ask me, so I was hoping someone here had some past experience that could help me out.
Thank You

Product replacement pending indicates your iPhone will be exchanged under warranty. An exchange under warranty can be a new or refurbished iPhone with no way to tell the difference. More than likely your exchange will ship sometime tomorrow.

  • I sent my phone into Apple for repairs. Now I can't receive messages from the two days that it was in for repairs. Will I receive them ever?

    I sent my phone into Apple for repairs on my speakers. So I took my SIM card out, restored the phone, and did everything that needs to be done to send it back. Because of all of that I didn't have my phone for two days. Now that I have it back I haven't received any messages that were sent to my phone during those two days. I know that some of my friends sent messages, but it doesn't show them. Will they ever come to my phone?

    Did they also restore your original user account? Log out of Apple and see if yours is there to log in to.
    You'll need to post the actual error message, not what you think it said. I don't think I've ever seen an error that said I needed an application to install anything on my Mac.

  • Completely operational iPhone went into Apple store to repair shattered screen.  IPhone came out with shattered screen and completely inoperable.  What happened?

    Completely operational iPhone went into Apple store to repair shattered screen.  IPhone came out with shattered screen and completely inoperable.  What happened or happens in the back room?

    Thanks.  That kind of confirms.  I was able to get the phone home and restore it.  The Genius was unable to restore.  Maybe there is a connector problem? Now there is a working phone again, still with a shattered screen.  Any suggestions for what's next? 

  • HT5622 I sent my Mac Pro Air for repairs and for some reason my user and group password was changed to Apple and I can't figure out what the password is -.help please.

    Sent my Mac Pro Air  for repairs and when it came back I had to download many programs.  Dowloaded  the OS X Mavericks but now it tells me I need an application to install it in my computer.  Which application do I need? Checked the App store but am new at this and have no clue.

    Recently my ipod touch 5th gen's home button has become unresponsive, I want to know if I can send it back to Apple for repairs and how I go about it/if I can go about it.

    The iPod support site has troubleshooting articles to help you solve your issue. If you still need service for your iPod, you can contact Apple. You can also take your iPod to your local Apple Authorized Service Provider. Note: There may be a fee for diagnostic service.

  • Sent Yoga 2 Pro in for repair. Fedex shows delivered, but Lenovo says it didn't arrive?

    I recently opened a support case for my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro which was rebooting with BSODs due to a hardware malfunction.
    Case ID: 8004208471
    I shipped the laptop on Nov. 28th and Fedex tracking shows that it was delivered on Dec. 2nd. However, today the Lenovo Repair Status shows that the laptop still has not reached the repair center. Admittedly, when I sent the laptop I goofed and forgot to include the Inventory Control Sheet so this may be part of the delay.
    I called back into Lenovo support yesterday to express my concern and also told them that I forgot to include the ICS. They stated they would have someone call me back. It's only been 24 hours, but I have not heard back and I hear stories of Lenovo support promising call-backs that are never made. I just want to get confirmation that my laptop has been located at the repair center and isn't "lost" in the center.
    How long from receipt of the laptop does it usually take the repair center to update the Lenovo repair status with "laptop received"? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    I actually sent my Yoga 2 Pro in for repair a couple of weeks ago. It is still being repaired. It was delivered by FedEx on 11/19/14 at 11:00 am, and the Lenovo Repair Status updated to show that it was received on 11/20/14 at 11:54 am. It took just over one day to update. The reason why it has taken two days is probably because of the missing inventory control sheet. Hope that you don't have any more problems!

  • Can i bring into genius for repairs if i bought it from a reseller?

    I am wanting to puchase the iMac 27".  I do qualify for education pricing, however, I see B&H photo offers no tax, free shipping, half off AppleCare, free Parallels for way cheaper than my student pricing.
    My question is, I worry about if something is wrong with it.  I want to be able to bring in into an Apple Store and not have to ship back and forth to a reseller. 
    I have read others posts that Apple tells the customer to deal directly with the reseller, but that does not make sense if you have Apple Care.
    Can anyone help?  I need to order it by tomorrow.
    Thank you for any help you have.

    If you did not buy it from apple they will not replace it with a replacement unit they do make you wait for repair parts to come in
    Sorry, but you should read the warranty - it does not state such a thing. Apple - like most manufacturers - allows themselves options and the options are that they will "repair or replace" - it is of no consequence where the unit was purchased. The machine is Apple and the warranty is by Apple. No matter where it was purchased, they will at first attempt to repair the problem; usually a minimum of three same repairs need to have been attempted before they may agree to replace the machine.

  • How Do You Contact Apple for Repair?

    Hey i want to send my mac off for repair but i don't knwo how to contact them so i can send it off. Any suggestions?

    The number to call depends on your location! Also, if you have one or more apple stores near you.
    I live in the Philadelphia area, and we have 3 Apple stores within a 1 hour drive. On Sunday (12/31) the power supply died on my iMac G5. I could not get an appt at the nearest Apple store, but got one at the second closest. They told me that it would be 3 days to replace the power supply because they needed to order the part. I asked them to check other stores, and in fact the one farthest from me had the part. I drove there in about 1 hour, was seen immediately (the genius at the first apple store made an appt for me) and the repair was completed in 10 minutes, saving me 2 days, 22 hours and 50 minutes.
    Good luck!

  • Just sent my ipad air in for repair

    Recently my Ipad's screen would not respond, it would also freeze a lot. I thought maybe it was because I had too many apps or pictures, so I erased everything on my Ipad and did a factory reset. Still no luck. Got fed up, called apple and they sent me an empty box and I just shipped it this morning. Now what happens? Will they send me a brand new refurbished one? or the same one just repaired? Also what if they tell me nothing is wrong with it and send it back to me? Will I get charged for them taking a look at it? Thank you.

    Nope that's about all you can do, maybe a Good Samaritan will turn it in, did you have a pass code on it at least?
    Change all passwords immediately. Email, banking, etc

  • Sent in my iPod Touch for repair because of lower volume button, and...

    ...Apple is sending it back to me because "No problems found." I sent in my iPod because the bottom volume button was at first hard to press and now it only works sometiems when I press it. I CLEARLY described that the bottom volume button only works half of the time and I took the time to give them my iPod so I basically just gave them my iPod for no reason? What should I do since the problem is still going to occur when I get my iPod back?

    Hi Cole!,
    Make a reservation with a Genius at a local Apple retail store or call AppleCare.

  • IPhone privacy when sending for repair.

    Can apple employees access my photos, messages or any of my personal data when I send my IPhone in for a repair when it hasn't been reset?
    My IPhone 5C has a problem where it doesn't accept any chargers, or charge at all when I plug in offical and unnofficial chargers, before when my phone was working, the battery life would last maybe 2-4 hours at 100% and often overheat if left on, and since I can't charge my IPhone to back up the data or reset my IPhone and update it,I have to send it away, with all of my personal information, apps, photos and accounts logged in on it.
    Can the Apple employees access my IPhone and the data such as Photos in camera roll, videos, IMessage, text messages, call history? and if they CAN are they allowed to? is there a policy against viewing the persons personal information such as photos etc on the phone?
    Thankyou

    Play it safe, perform an iPhone backup to your computer or iCloud (or both if you're really cautious).  If you do backup to your computer (which is probably best) you can also encrypt your backup if you'd like -- just make sure you remember your backup's password.  Also make sure that your contacts are synced somewhere because contacts are not really part of your iPhone backup -- but if they're synced to iCloud, Gmail, etc. then its just a matter of setting up the iCloud or Gmail account to recover your contacts.
    Once you've done that, on your iPhone select Settings/ General/ Reset/ Erase All Content and Settings.  That will wipe it clean, and is probably what Apple would do anyway, but you can do this to ensure your information is erased before getting to them.

  • IOs 5 Update sent iPhone 4 into infinite reboot loop!

    I see that many people are having issues with the update not working, but I haven't come across someone with the issue I have.
    I tried to update to iOs 5, but it forced my phone into recovery mode. After trying to restore it to factory setting several times, receiving multiple errors, my iPhone 4 is now stuck in an infinite loop of showing the startup screen (apple logo) then the spinning circle. It cannot be reset, and it is not detected by itunes. I tried all of the suggestions on the pages the errors linked me to, but nothing worked.
    I have no idea what to do...
    Suggestions?

    Well, lots of people are saying that Apple is the new Windows. There are, unfortunately, right.
    As Apple keeps growing, the problems on my Mac and iPhone keep growing, too.
    My iPhone 4 is in an Infinite Loop, rebooting the whole time.
    After 7 hours (!!!!) of attempts, I finally found this solution: keep the power and home button pushed in, then release the power button and only keep the home button pushed in. Then you can update (if Apple lets you, my iPhone is still restoring after more than 1 hour).
    This is really a shame and very bad publicity for Apple. Last year Antennagate, now Upgate, what's next?
