Support for iPhone servicing/replacement overseas?

Hi,
I'm at an odd case here, and talkign to the AppleCare CSRs in both North America and here in Germany (ended up talking to someone in Hungary and someone in India on the phone...) they weren't all that sure how to help me.
Purchased my iPhone4 with AT&T about 8.5mth ago (so still under Apple Limited Warrenty) but my phone is officially dead:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15277621#15277621
No response to hard boot, recovery mode, DFU mode, plugging into iTunes or plugging into AC power.
AppleCare suggested a replacement, but two problems:
First: They were unsure that if I was able to bring it into an AppleStore in Germany (none of which are remotely close to me...) if the would replace it and
Second: If they did replace it, I was told it would then 'be locked to German providers'
Question 1: Has anyone had luck getting their iPhones serviced away from their purchasing country?
Question 2: I'm confused about the 'locked to German providers' comment... iPhones sold in AppleStores in Germany are sold unlocked... Would they lock mine to a provider on purpose? Or is the unlocking not handled by the AppleStore... I'm not too familiar with the process because it's impossible in the US. Honestly I dont care about unlocked or not right now... I just want to be able to use it!
Any advice would be great! Thanks

If you purhcased the iphone in U.S and is roaming in Germany. You will have to take it back to U.S and get it replaced from there. Warranty is only valid where it was purchased. If you have a friend or relative in U.S, send the phone to them, have them take it to the apple store and replace the phone and send it back. How are you managing to roam internationally? Surely it's not cheap.

If you are in India, contact your local service center for a price quote. I don't know if Indian service centers can replace just the back glass or if they will need to replace the entire iPhone. To locate a service center, see:

Make sure you select "iPhone" for the product time. Only certain service centers can handle iPhones.

ADF Mobile: JSON support for REST services?

Will the JSON format be supported for REST services using ADF Mobile? Is there a workaround for now that can be used?

For now you can write a Java class to communicate with your JSON service, and expose it as a data control.

Does Websphere(WAS) V3.5 has support for web services ??

Hi all,
Please let me know whether Websphere Application Server V3.5 supports Web Services. If any one has used it for V3.5 then please let me know.
Thanks
-Satyendra

I suppose not, as out of the box.
If you look into the classpath and the lib directories, there are no traces of any support for Web-Services.
However, you can set up the environment to do so, It seems to be easy to handle.
Cheers, and keep posting your progress.

Turkish Language Support for iPhone

When will
Turkish Language Support for iPhone and
Turkish Keyboard Support for iPhone
Turkish Auto-Correction and Turkish Dictionary
be available?

Yes, Apple never responds such questions. I also sent them feedback on their web site (http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html). No response.
Happily though, Apple released iPhone firmware 2.2. And with that Turkish language support and Turkish Keyboard support (sort of) are available at last! (Several months later Apple officially released iPhone in Turkey!)
Turkish Keyboard support is sort of available because it is not a real keyboard. You can see and use Turkish characters only by pressing your finger on their english counterparts and waiting a while. Auto correction for Turkish language is not available yet.
PS: I do not wait a response from Apple. I just want to hope that some folks from Apple may be reading these discussions.
thanks

Is there support for iPhone 3G?

I have an iMac running 10.6.8. I will be upgrading to 10.7. I have an iPhone 3GS and an iPhone 3G. What support, if any, is there for the iPhone 3G with iCloud?

No support for the 3G in iTunes 10.5.
"iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

Language Support for iPhone

I just got the iphone this morning. Its pretty good, except for two big problems. One is the EDGE network, which is slow, but nothing to be done about that.
The second is the lack of language support. I expected it to support the languages that OS X does, but it seems that the iphone is most limited in this regard. Of particular irritation to me is the lack of Hebrew support, as a good chunk of my iTunes library is in hebrew. In addition, websites don't render correctly with unsupported languages...
Is this going to be fixed? soon?!

Tom,
The limitation seems to be one of the 4 included encodings that are in Mac OSX's version of Safari, but not supported by iPhone's Mail interface. I received 6 emails from Japan (thru the iPhone's Yahoo mail interface) and one of them came in as junk characters. In a browser, you can just keep trying the other encodings to make the junk characters readable-this is not possible (from what I can tell) within iPhone's mail interface.
If I have time, I will log into the Yahoo mail account directly thru Safari on the iPhone, to see if that works better than iPhone mail-but I'm assuming they use a similar encoding scheme. I also assume that once they release the iPhone in Japan, this will be addressed

Netflix and lack of support for iPhone

Is it just me? I've been trying to stream a movie via netflix on the iPhone 4, however, every time it starts saying Loading Movie... it sort of "crashes" back to the video selection screen. Of course my first thought is to search every support and search engine known to man but that yielded no results. Netflix has no support for the iPhone app on their website at all, why release something when there's no support, isn't that called a beta? Please help if anybody has experienced this problem. Thank you in advance.

I have the same exact problem on my iPod Touch 3rd gen 32GB. On my iPhone 3GS however on the same wifi network everything works fine.
When the iPod Touch first boots up I get the Alert: "Cannot reach netflix.com. Please try again later." (subsequent times, this error is not shown, but the movies still do not play) Pressing ok continues to launch Netflix and shows movie "Like"s and selecting Instant Queue menu has no problem showing my own Instant Queue. The problem occurs when you attempt to Play a movie. Pressing Play results in a message "loading...", then for a brief second the Netflix landscape red screen appears and returns back to where I pressed the Play button.
Tried updating to 4.1 and tried reinstalling Netflix without any luck.

Does the eBooks created by iBooks Author support for iphone now?

I have been read some blogs discussing that the iPhone could gain new support for ebooks made by iBooks Author. And now, I wanna know whether the prediction is true or not. I can' t find any annoucement from Apple to confirm this point. Does anyone answer my confusion.

With the current software ..books created using iBooks Author cannot be viewed on iPhones.
iBooks Author creates books that can only...be used with iPads and on Macs with Mavericks installed, by using iBooks.
Thats it...no rumours. Blogs or to be more accurate...some of those who contribute to them seem to either be totally stupid, or like to make themselves look as if they have inside knowledge.
Apple created iBooks Author to allow self publishers create and publish books to the store. But not just novels or text only type books. iBA made these books allow audio / video ..and much much more than any novel. That being so....most interactive multi media books will not really display well on a screen the size if the iPhone.
Apple are more concerned in getting iPads in use more by business and education at all levels.
The only rumour that may well become fact is a larger sized screen for a bigger iPad mid to late 2014.

Where is Flash support for iPhone?

Today, Google just announced their Nexus One with Flash support, everyone has realized that most of the media on internet are sent with Flash, but such a powerful iPhone still don't have flash support, again, I want to ask, when is flash for iPhone coming?
iPhone OS 4.0? If not, a lot people are going to get Nexus One, I think.

There's two things I think Adobe are referring to:
1) Currently the iPhone OS lacks any ability to load third-party Mobile Safari plugins. So, even if Adobe have a Flash 10 player running in their labs, they can't load it into iPhone Safari because there's no plugin architecture. This would need changes to be made by Apple to the iPhone OS.
2) The iPhone SDK currently prevents third-party runtime environments, (i.e. programs that can run pre-compiled code), which Flash Player is. (Although they seem to be relaxing this a bit with a few emulators that have appeared). Again, this would need changes to be made by Apple to the SDK restrictions.
Still, I'm happy without Flash!
