Switch iPhone colors on iPhone had since launch day?

My iPhone 5 arrived on launch day, and have had non stop problems with it since then.
I live in the UK where there are far and few between Apple stores. Over the weekend we are going out our way to Christmas shop at a mall with an Apple store.
I'm going to get my iPhone replaced because of it's many hardware issues, but I was wondering if they would replace my iPhone 5 (black) for a white one?
My iPhone arrived with a few small scratches and putting a case on it caused a few more, although they are small they are very noticeable because they are white scratches on a black iPhone, do you think they will switch for a white one?
Kind Regards,
Nathan

No. In order to get a different color, you would have to return the one you have for a refund and purchase a different one. If you've had it since launch day, you're well outside the return window.

Can you change the type of iphone that you pre-ordered before launch day??

I pre-ordered the 16GB Black iphone for pick up at my local Apple store and think i should have ordered the 32gb instead. Was curious if anyone has called to change their phone type from 16gb to 32 or 32gb to 16gb. Thought I would check here before calling them and bugging them.

Limited availability. Some mixes responses. My store will not allow changes of pre-orders or reservations. Others have said they will allow changes, but you'll have to head to the back of the line.

Carlo Scala rider Q2: problems with iPhone 3G under IPhone OS 3.O ?

Hi,
My Carlo scala rider Q2 Headset was working fine with my iPhone 3G, until this latter was upgraded to iPhone 3.0 OS.
Since that day, the microphone of my headset is no more active and I've check it was the same with a brand-new Carlo Scala Rider headset. Is it a problem of compatibility with the new bluetooth stereo version of iPhone 3.0 software .
Thank you for any help.

Hi,
As all of you, i'm disappointed with the the iphone / scala combination, but let me make this clear - iphone is the "guilty" part not scala:
The Good: phone is pairing and working "ok", no voice dialing is possible
The Bad: no music or gps instructions can be heard in the headphones
However, everything was working fine with pre 3.0 versions of the iphone software
Yesterday, while on the phone with somebody, I've selected the ipod icon then hit play and ... what do you know, i was able to hear the song loud and clear in my headset, together with the guy i was talking to (he didn't hear the music, only me). Unfortunately the music stopped as soon as the call stopped. I was able to recreate the situation several times.
So what this proves is that, even with the 3.x version installed (A2DP), regardless of iphone generation (3G or 3gs), the headset can receive the bt music stream from the phone, but the phone is not sending it to the headset (only while a call is on)
Can somebody do something about this, it looks as a simple programming glitch or something?

You do a restore as new to wipe the iPhone then at the end of restore you will be asked to restore from backup. Choose your iPhone backup.
Note you cannot restore an IOS newer than the IOS on iPhone, you need to update iPhone first.

- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.) Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Delete the App, then reinstall it.
Test the issue after each step. Make sure to quit the app as described before each followup step.

Dude or hot-spur,
Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
Thank you again

My iPhone 4 has had a cover on it since the day I first had . But the back of the phone now has lots of little marks all over it . They don't feel like scratches since I can't feel them with finger or fingernail. They won't shift with alcohol or anything

My iPhone 4 has had a cover on it since the day I first had it . But the back of the phone now has lots of little marks all over it . They don't feel like scratches since I can't feel them with finger or fingernail. They won't shift with alcohol or anything. I am guessing they have been caused by dirt between the cover and the rear of the phone; but that is despite me cleaning the back and the inside of the back cover regularly. Has anyone else had the same?

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

Could I switch my new black iPhone 5 to white color.

Could I switch my new black iPhone 5 to white color.

You'd have to first return your black phone, then purchase a white phone...there is no exchange if you originally purchased from Apple. Make sure you're still within the return period..30 days from date of purchase in the US, 14 days everywhere else.

I recently bought a new i phone 4 as my other one had seen beter days and for the last sevral days have been trying to transfer my photos ect from my old phone to my new one after I've plugged my old iPhone into iTunes to back it up i then plug in my one to transfer it over I've had no luck I've tryed restoring my new phone to the last time i backed up my old files the phone restores but always to its own backup point wen i first connected it to iTunes can anyone help me please?

Since this is the second computer you've had this problem with, I recommend you look for answers on the iPhone forum. My thinking is it is an iPhone issue rather than a computer issue (unless it is some software incompatibility).

IPhone 6 battery life draining since 8.1 update

Is anyone else having problems with their iPhone 6 battery life diminishing since the latest 8.1 update? I notice I'm getting much less usage time per hour. For example, before 8.1, it would take about 3 hours of usage time to get to 70%. Now it only takes 2 and it gets worse after that. Here is a screenshot I took of the battery usage before the 8.1 update:
This is pretty normal usage timings for me (it was taken Monday, October 20th). Now, here is a screenshot from today, after starting out with 100% this morning:
As you can see, it's quite a huge difference. The weird thing is that messaging seems to take up more battery life than it used to. Yes, I do text quite a bit during the day but the frequency of this has not changed between now and October 20th. It shouldn't be using THAT much battery life. I took it to the Genius Bar yesterday to ask them about this problem and the girl told me that she saw some crashing from the Messages app in Diagnostics Information and she felt that maybe since the update, there was something causing that app to use more battery. So she suggested erasing the phone and restoring from an iCloud backup. I did this yesterday when I got home but, as you can see, the problem is no better (though there are no more crashes listed in the diagnostics information).
I have no idea what else I can do to fix this and I'm getting really tired of having to charge this twice a day now (I used to have to do this with my iPhone 5, as well). If anyone has had a similar problem, I would appreciate suggestions. And before you ask, I'm doing all of the normal battery saving tricks, like turning off background app refresh, not having it check for mail all the time (it's manual), brightness is down, I turn wifi off when not using it, I don't leave apps open, etc etc etc.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

I turn off background refresh, mail push/fetch, and I turn off wifi and bluetooth if I'm not using them. I also minimize which apps use location services. Even when doing all of that though, the battery life became terrible on 8.1. Since updating to 8.1.1 all issues seem to have been fixed so I'm very grateful for that. I recommend anyone on 8.1 who is having issues to upgrade to 8.1.1 immediately.

You don't have to install the Find My iPhone app - you need to switch the feature on in the settings on the phone.

I dont understand why this is happening, this is extremely frustrating! I have been using my main account ever since i bought my iphone 3GS over three years now. I used to see every app ive purchased with my main account. but with mmy other itunes account i really havent download much apps so it doesnt show all my apps since the day I purchased my 3GS.Please help. I know there are many other out there that have the same problem, why isnt this problem fixed yet?????

I had to do ALL of the above in sequence, but before rebooting, I turned WiFi OFF.
When I rebooted, I turned WiFi ON. I made sure that Location Services was ON for the Apple Store ( the one with the shopping cart).
Then I went into the App Store.
I did that about 3 times then voilà! The App Store appeared again.
To summarize:
- Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead.
- Try App Store. If it doesn't work, continue with below.
- Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off
- Close all apps in the Task Bar.
- Turn WiFi OFF.
- Reboot.
- Turn WiFi ON.
- Make sure Location Services is ON for the Apple Store.
- Turn Date and Time to Set Automatically ON.
- Try App Store.
Repeat the above if necessary. Thanks Demo, Ocean20 and Diavonex.
It worked!
