What do I  need to repair if screen unresponsive in cold weather?

So I am on a snowboarding trip and as in whatever you do nowadays you are not the only one with an iPhone, however on this trip, every time we were out in the cold (20's) my iphone was the only one that would not respond to my touch (no gloves ofcourse)  I tried other's phones as some said my hands were too cold and ofcourse they worked.  I borrowed other's cases just in case that was the problem, and no luck!  Ofocurse reset the phone like 10 times and no difference.  The only thing that worked for a while was sticking a toe warmer to the back of the phone!!  the real iPad!!  ok not funny.
I am obviously experiencing a hardware issue here, can anyone share if they have had this issue fixed out of warranty?? 
PS I have been able to replicate the problem just by putting the phone in front of the AC vent in MAX.. 
Thanks for your help!!

Operating temperature of iPhone is:  Operating temperature : 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
See:  http://support.apple.com/kb/SP643
So exposure of the iPhone to 20° - 30°F is below the specifications of the device. So just, use the device in the conditions it is designed for or you may experience the experience you have experienced.

  • What is the cost for repair my screen?

    Help! what is the cost for repair my screen?

    Back glass repair/replacement is cheaper than front glass. If your handy back glass replacement is fairly easy and repair kits sold on-line are around $25-30. Front glass repair requires pretty much taking the entire iPhone apart and is much more complicated $100-200 depending on your location city and iPhone model.

  • What do i need to replace my screen?

    I was in class today using my Iphone 4S 64GB.I set it down on my desk, and turned around to answer sombody's question. When i turned back to my desk, i knocked my Iphone onto the tile floor (3-4 feet) and it completely obliterated my screen. Now, as apple is extremely expensive compared to other options, if I was to fix this myself, what would i need? I relaced the glass & LCD screen on my iphone 4, which was easy because i knew that the LCD was broken. But with this phone, ive noticed that the screen works. So does that mean i would only need to replace the glass? Or do i still need to replace the entire display?
    Thanks in advance

    There would be no way to tell without looking at it. Look at the teardown on http://www.ifixit.com

  • I can't recieve or send e-mails from my yahoo account in mail. Also, what should I do to repair the screen of my iPad 2 if I don't have any Apple warranty?

    For some unknown reason, I have been having issues when sending and recieving e-mails from my Yahoo account in mail on my iPad, but can use mail just fine on my iPhone. Why is this, and how do I fix it?
    I accidentally dropped my iPad 2 on Monday, it hit my foot, and the screen cracked. I recieved this iPad some time in August 2011, and no longer have any sort of warrany on it. Should I take it in to Apple and get a replacement, or have a third party fix it? And if so, how much would it cost, and where should I go?

    I am glad we were able to get your email working again. Please reach out anytime you need us.
    Thanks,
    Anthony_VZ

  • 5800 XM ( SCREEN JAMS IN COLD CONDITIONS ) proplem...

    OOooh. 1st hi everyone...i bought a new 5800 xm from about 5 months and it was so great and cheerfull and its firmware was v20. later i upgraded it to v21 and still no proplem but i started proplems by apdate to ver 30 and 31 ( latest ) i found my 5800 screen jams in cold weather or cold air condition many many horizontal and vertical lines appears on screen and i cant see anything even when somebody calls me i cant read his number or even his name.....REALLY WHAT A BIGGG PROPLEM.....is it a firmware proplem or a hardware proplem...and how i can fix it and what about the cost........my regards 
    KNOW me NO pain....KNOW pain NO me....... IF U FIND MY REPLIES USEFULL PLZ CLICK ON ((( KODOS))) BOTTON

    My 5800 shuts down completely when temperature drops below 60F. Have sent it to repair, it came back with a note: "The following repair actions taken: Software Upgrade and Phone Reset". The phone still shuts down every time it is cold! I thought there is something wrong with the battery, but when you cool the phone without the battery and insert the "warm" battery, phone would not start up at all, only back light come up or it would start to vibrate non stop. Today I spent all day listening "Sorry all of our lines are busy" at Nokia support line...  Such disappointment.

  • I just got my Mac back from Apple repair and I can't burn a disc. What do I need to do to make that happen?

    I just got my Mac back from Apple repair and I can't burn a disc. What do I need to do to make that happen?

    Hello deneye2112,
    Thank you for providing the details of the burning issue you are experiencing.  I found some resources that I think might help:
    First, I recommend resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac (I wasn't sure if you had a removable battery or a built in battery, so I listed the steps for both):
    Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you can remove
    Note: Learn about removing the battery on MacBook and MacBook Pro.
    Shut down the computer.
    Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
    Remove the battery.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your ownNote: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    You can find the full article here:
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

    If you are still having trouble with burning after that step, I recommend reviewing the section titled "Top troubleshooting tips" in the following article:
    Disc Burning Quick Assist

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    You need to code your web site to recognize the mobile browser and send a page that's actually usable when it does.

  • All I have on my I pod touch is a white screen with multicolored lines going across screen.  What do I need to do.  I can't use I tunes because it says I have to have passcode and can't get screen to come up.  I have already tried holding both keys down.

    - See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.. It bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod)
    - Next try DFU mode

    Reload the page. If it doesn't load, choose Activity from Safari's Window menu, find that picture in the list, and see what it says to the right; this may reveal what the problem is.

  • Need to repair disk - what do I do????!!!

    I've done a check on the disk utility and it says the following:
    "Volume Header needs minor repair
    The volume Apple Hardrive needs to be repaired.
    Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
    1 HFS volume checked
    Volume needs repair"
    However it doesn't give me the choice to click 'repair disk'. Do I need to reinstall? If so what is the safest way of doing this?
    If I don't need to reinstall, what should I do?
    Any help much appreciated!

    Do this:
    Repairing permissions is an important part of regular maintenance, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two.

    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    and here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.
