Think twice about buying new iPhone 6!
Think twice about purchasing the new iPhone. It is not a durable phone. Definitely not as durable as the iPhone 5. I have had it a total of 4 days and dropped it once and it completely shattered. That never happened to my 5. So now to have it fixed I will have to pay another $100. or buy a new on for over $500. I guess Apple and Verizon will make a lot of money on extended warranty plans!! At least my Apple stock might go up. No one told me that I had to handle this phone like a piece of crystal! I'm not a teenager that doesn't take care of my possessions. Very disappointing. Warning you might want to keep that iPhone 5.
Bummed customer.
I can only imagine how frustrating it is to have your new device broken already. I don't think it's a defect like you seem to imply though. In reality you were lucky that you never broke your 5 when dropping it if you carried it without a case. I was expecting you to say that your 6 bent or something but it cracking when dropped...that's much more expected than not with the screen being glass. I don't ever get the insurance but I use Otterbox cases. They make the phone seem bigger and add some bulk )although the 6 case isn't as bad as previous ones) but my phones still look like new once I'm ready to retire them.

I am so confused. I am thinking about buying an iPhone 4S but I want to use those card things that you can put the code in for the phone is this possible? I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts... As long as it has the support for the service it's hooked up to?
As far as I know there is no US cell carrier that allows pay as you go with an iPhone. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone 4S at an Apple Store and try it with a non-supported carrier.

INDONESIAThat is because the iPhone warranty is country specific. You will need to return to Singapore, or send it to someone you know there, to get it serviced.

okay. when i connected my iphone 5 to itunes it replaced all of the data from my old iphone 3gs (contacts, apps, notes, bookmarks,photos, music, everything you can possibly think of) with my new iphone 5's data. I am so frustrated with this. Why? and it did it by itself, i didnt touch anything, or clicked anything. please help me this is urgent! I am a businessman and need my contacts.
You're iPhone was probably set to automatically sync with your iTunes upon plugging it in. Best option is to restore from a backup, either on iCloud or your computer.

Purchase applecare vs buy new iphone 3GS
Hi Folks,
My iphone 3G is about a year old and I am now presented with the option of buying applecare for $69. I checked my upgrade options and I can buy a new iphone 3G S for $199. So it seems to me that if something major or costly happens to my current iphone (lost, stolen, damaged, expensive repair...) I can just exercise the upgrade option. And if so, then applecare as insurance is costing $69 to protect an item that's replace for $199 -- not a very good insurance purchase. Of course, I would have to start a new two year contract, but that would not be a problem.
Anything wrong with this logic?
thanks,gmansc wrote:
Yes, definitely a subsidized price. The cost should be something more like $399 or $499 (can't recall exactly), and then the applecare might be a good policy.
If you need an iPhone as a back up then you would be keeping the old one, if not then perhaps eBay? You would probably get more than the $200 upgrade.
So the added plus with release of the 3GS and Apple/ATT upgrade policy is that one need not worry about insuring with applecare those iphones that are upgraded for a reasonable price.
....and you'd have a brand new warranty on the new unit.
One hitch is if one had to turn in the old iphone 3G, or its sim card, to upgrade. But I don't think this is the case. Anybody know for sure?
Not in England, so some of what I'm saying may be invalid. -
Will Apple or AT&T unlock my old iPhone 3G if I buy new iPhone 3G S?
Here's the story,
I want to buy the New iPhone 3G S (32GB) and currently have an iPhone 3G (16GB). I am going to cancel my ATT contract (and bite the bullet on the termination fee) and buy the new 3G S by entering a new contract. My question is this. Since I'm going to go into a new contract (due to the 3G S), and my old iPhone 3G is going to be off contract and 'mine', since it is no longer officially tied to a contract, will AT&T or Apple unlock it for me so I can either sell it (for others to use on AT&T or possible T-Mobile), or for use it in other parts of the world with a diff sim card? I'm wondering if they'll unlock it like the Hong Kong iPhones that are unlocked.
I don't want to jailbreak it, or use anything. The reason why is because there's always a delay in them releasing updates by about a few days to a few weeks every time there is a new version of iPhone firmware released. I'd rather have it officially done from AT&T or Apple so upgrades could be done immediately and whatever carriers sim card that is being used is good to go. Anyone know if they will do this for me? Or do I need to resort to 'other' unorthodox methods?
Thank you
~AirBruce
<Edited by Host>I already checked. I purchased my iPhone 3G on the launch date back in July '08. I've paid the bill the day my bill was issued, days ahead of its due date, and for some reason, even through it's magic 8-ball wisdom, said I was not eligible for and upgrade. Not till Dec. of this year at least.
So even though my phone is now technically 'mine' and off their contract, they still won't unlock it for me? How come? -
I want to buy new iPhone 4s from friend...
Hello,
I currently own a Droid X and have a plan with Verizon. A friend of mine just signed a plan to get her daughter and her each a new iPhone 4s. She doesn't want her phone anymore and is interested in selling it to me. I'm all over this chance if there won't be any issues.
I would think that all she would have to do is cancel her phone from her plan, so I can then activate it on my plan, right?
If that is correct then I also need to confirm that I'm able to switch my phone number from my Droid X to the new iPhone 4s.
Also, will doing any of this add to my bill? Will doing any of this add to her bill or than maybe a cancellation fee?
Thank you to anyone that is able to assist with these questions.BluePanda wrote:

in order for you to use a phone you buy from her her plan must be paid in full and up to date
if ther eis any ballance due, then the phone will not be able to be activated
it should nto change your bill
if she cancels her line then there will be the etf of @ $375 due plus any usage fees that are owed -
Buying new iPhone and transfering Apps Licenses
i was wondering if i bought a new 3gs iPhone or the coming 4G iPhone can i transfer
my Apps from old one to new one cause i don't want to buy all my apps again so can the license be transferred to the new one and removed from old one ?
RegardsIf the applications are on any computer, just sync the new iPhone with it. If not, connect the old iPhone to a computer, choose Transfer Purchases from the File menu in iTunes, and proceed as above.
Authorizing the computer from the Store menu will handle all licensing issues.

Question about buying an iphone now
so if i buy an iphone now, but a new one (i.e. 32gb) is announced at macworld, can i take it back and exchange it without a restocking fee since it would still be within the 14 days?
Since you have waited this long, it is probably a good idea to wait just a little while longer - less than 14 days for MacWorld until you purchase an iPhone - if you don't want to pay the restocking fee if Apple announces a new iPhone product such as a 32GB iPhone. This is an if but if paying the restocking fee would be a problem if Apple makes such an announcement at MacWorld, best if you wait just a little while longer.

Few questions about buying an iPhone in the US for European use
We're currently in NY and are considering buying an iPhone because it's way cheaper here than in Belgium.
Still we have a few questions, hope we can get some answers
- You should unlock your iPhone, should we ask for that right away in the Apple store ?
- Doest unlocking cost any money, if yes, how much ?
- What happens to your warranty, can you go to a Belgian Apple store if something happens to your iPhone ?
- Can customs make any problems if you get one or more iPhones unboxed in your baggage ?
Anyone who has done this and wants to share their experience, any other things we have to know ?
Thanks in advance!Warranty will be valid only in the US. You will have to return the iPhone
personally or via friend/relative. Apple will not accept international
shipments for evaluation nor will Apple ship out of the country after
repair/replacement. You cannot have your US purchased iPhone serviced
or replaced in the US.
LTE/4G on an iPhone purchased in the US will not work outside of North America.
Tax, import duty, customs fees are best discussed with the appropriate governmental
entities in Belgium.
Be sure to ask in the Apple store for an unlocked iPhone - you will pay full retail price
plus applicable taxes. There is no charge to get the iPhone unlocked.
