Verizon replacement: Droid X2 for my 32gb iPhone 4s!?!?

I got the upgraded to the iphone 4s from the Droid X in late October.  The phone has been dropping calls ever since, Verizon sent a replacement, same thing.  They started a trouble ticket for me, they said they could switch me to a different device.  I looked online at their site and decided either the HTC Rezound or the Samsung Galaxy Nexus would be a fair exchange.  All 3 phones sell for $299 w/ a 2 year contract, same data storage, similar processors, etc..
Then the Verizon rep tells me that because these phones are 4g and the iPhone is only 3g that this trade isn't fair.  I AM LIVID!!!  This is ridiculous, the 32gb iPhone 4s sells for more used on ebay than the GNexus does new!!  I shouldn't have to sell one phone and buy the GN from a 3rd party, I pay $150 a month to big red, they should make sure my device works properly.  I will be going to AT&T and TMobile this week to check out the Samsung Galaxy SII's.  I can't believe they even tried to claim that the Droid X2 is even in the conversation w/ the 4s.

You don't have to. If your iPhone sells for more on eBay than the GNexus does new, sell it on eBay. Then go to Verizon and pay for the GNexus and pocket the extra cash for your trouble.
This works because you have 2 willing parties for the transaction, the buyer and seller. With Verizon, you only have 1 willing party, YOU. Kind of hard to have the transaction without 2 willing parties.

  • 32GB Iphone 5C Yellowish Tint on Screen?

    Just go a 32GB Iphone 5C over the weekend and noticed there's a very subtle yellow to the white color.  I know the 5S and 5C uses the same screen so I compared my phone to my buddy's and girlfriend's.  It turns out my Iphone does look slightly on the yellowish side.
    I took it into the Apple store and after my session with the tech, they replaced by Iphone.  I happily walked out of the store thinking its solved and as my phone completed the restore process, I noticed it being the same.  Is this a common issue for the 32GB Iphone 5Cs??
    Anybody else noticing this??

    The screen sounds defective. There should be no color distortion along the edge. I would insist that they replace it.

  • I just  realised my newly purchased iphone 6 screen is cracked. I am not sure how that happened though :(  would verizon replace it for me?

    Your cracked screen is considered customer abuse and it will not get replaced by Verizon. You will have to file an insurance claim.

  • If I wanted to exchange my iPhone 5 for the new iPhone 6 (no additional cost after $199 gift card from selling iPhone 5) do I have to pre-order online or do I just have to show up at a Verizon store Sept 19th?

    If I wanted to exchange my iPhone 5 for the new iPhone 6 (no additional cost after $199 gift card from selling iPhone 5) can I pre-order online now or do I just have to show up at a Verizon store Sept 19th?

        scodaddy, that is a wonderful question. We are super excited about the new iPhone. You can always pre-order your new iPhone online and then start the mail in rebate by following this link: http://bit.ly/GGnDDC Or you can always go into the store location and do it all in store on the 19th when the phone is launched. That would depend on if the store has them in stock when you go in. I hope that this was able to address your concern.

  • Where can I get a replacement back housing for my iphone 5c?

    Where can I find a replacement back housing for my iPhone 5c because I recently bought the white one and get dirty way too fast and it starting to look really ugly and the dirt marks are starting to stick to the phone and not come off.

    Check with Apple.  Google online for a 3rd party repair service.

  • My iphone 4 doesn´t connect thorugh Wi-Fi, apple replaced my phone for a new one and it has the same problem. I have an ipod and it doesn´t have this problem. Does any one know what to do?? Thanks

    My iphone 4 doesn´t connect through Wi-Fi, Apple replaced my phone for a new one, but the new one  has the same problem. I have an ipod third generation and it doesn´t have this problem. Having compared both working at the same time, the iphone alsways lags behind or doesn´t even connect to the internet via Wi-Fi. Does any one know what to do?? Thanks

    Have you ever checked to see if there is an update for your router? If yes, then power off router. Then on iPhone go into settings and do a reset network settings. Power router back on, and try connecting phone to router.

  • If my iphone 3g screen has smashed and my phone is out of warranty. will apple be able to replace the phone for me or repair the screen?

    if my iphone 3g screen has smashed and my phone is out of warranty. will apple be able to replace the phone for me or repair the screen?
    i heard apple can upgrade my phone if a pay a specific amount? is this correct?
    also if my phone is out of warranty how much would it cost for it to be replaced?

    Apple does not repair smashed phones.  It will replace the phone with another iPhone 3G as an out of warranty exchange for 199.00 USD. 
    You should check with your carrier to see if you are eligible for a subsidized iPhone 4.   It may cost you the same as the out of warranty replacement for a phone almost 3 generations old.

  • "can the iphone 5 hold 1170 songs and 85 apps or should i go for the 32gb model?"

    "can the iphone 5 hold 1170 songs and 85 apps or should i go for the 32gb model?"

    I have more music than that and more apps, and I have a 32GB model with about 15GB free, so I would suggest the 32GB.

    When my iphone 6 plus ships, can I go into verizon and trade it in for the regular iphone 6?

    Yes if they have it. You have a 14 day worry free period to do so. You can also call in for exchange but they'll charge you for it until it arrives back at their warehouse and charge falls off.

  • Out of Warranty replacement for water damaged iPhone 4s.

    I left it in rice, didn't work. And so I want apple to give me a replacement but I am out of the warranty. How much would it be for a replacement, and how do I go about getting the replacement?

    This for the U.S.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
    iPhone model
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 5
    $229
    iPhone 4S
    $199
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
    iPhone 3G, Original iPhone
    $149
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax. When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorization for the maximum service fee listed above.  This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

  • Palm Desktop replacement for Mac and iPhone?

    Since Palm Desktop is no longer in active development, is there a Palm Desktop replacement for Mac and iPhone?
    http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/33219_en.html#mac
    I mean, a single application (not a bunch of them like Address Book, iCal etc) that works on Mac (desktop) and that can sync with the iPhone. Including all data from the current Palm Desktop:
    1. Address List
    2. To Do List
    3. Memo List
    4. Date Book
    Thanks.

    If only Apple did something like that (all-in-one-application personal organizer with contacts, memos, calendar, to do lists, etc)
    Well, they offer all those functions--Mail has Notes and To-dos show up in both Mail and iCal, plus Address Book. Clearly someone made the fundamental decision that separate integrated programs were better than an all-in-one, so I wouldn't expect an all-in-one from Apple in any foreseeable future. But you can send a feature request, if you like:
    http://apple.com/feedback
    What would be interesting---and may exist, I haven't looked---would be if a third-party used the open access to iCal/Address Book info to build an all-in-one that integrated with Apple's separate apps, which could provide seamless iPhone/OS X integration while still letting people have the unified interface. Postbox uses Address Book but I didn't see any calendar/notes features in my quick check. Lots of apps build better replacements for Apple's individual programs--BusyCal, I think a Mail replacement, etc---but nothing unified that I've heard of.
    However, my point was that you may be better off grabbing Entourage 2008 while it is still available than waiting for Outlook 2011, which is going to be a different program. Sometimes features go backwards, and Missing Sync compatibility may change or be delayed with Outlook 2011. I don't see the advantage of hanging onto PD until the very last minute.
