When are you applicable to get a replacement for an iphone 5?

I got my iphone 5 about 7 months ago and I have a 1 year warranty on it.
It's been a while and my phone has been starting to act up in ways of:
The lock button not working unless pressed hard on the left side
When i'm typing a message the screen tends to freeze (I tried deleting things because i thought it was caused by the lack of  memory, i turned my phone on and off, but it still happend.
It's stuck on headphones mode for a week now and i've tried everything like sucking and blowing it, inserting and taking out the headphones, turned off/on my phone, tried cleaning it with tissue & cotton swabs.
I dropped my phone twice and there is a crack on the side (i know that it cant be replace because of that) BUT it seems like the crack is getting bigger and there is debris or something going under the glass and i'm not sure how to take it off.
How can you get a replacement online? I'm kind of scared of going to the Apple Store.
If there is no possible way of getting a replacement is there somewhere i cant get my phone fixed?

Why are you scared to take it to an Apple Store? Either way you'll have to pay for a replacement - Apple does not repair iPhones for problems such as you report, they replace them - and an Apple Store will do it on the spot.
If you insist on doing in via ship-in, though, go here:

and start the process through the Service Requests and Troubleshooting link.
Regards.

    Sorry, when you permitted your friend to do that, you forfeited the right to an out of warranty replacement.
    Apple makes it quite clear that if you or anyone else attempts to open the phone, not only is all warranty/support voided, but you forfeit the right to an out of warranty replacement.

  • Yet Another Syncing Complaint (when are you going to get it right, Apple?)

    I have to say, syncing my phone with itunes is the most miserably frustrating techno-process in my life at the moment.
    About to step out for lunch, I thought it'd be nice to grab a new audio book to accompany my sandwich and I to the park. I found a title and had it on my hard drive in under 90 seconds -- an impressively frictionless acquisition.
    But then came time to go from computer to phone.
    I click sync. Message: "Syncing will remove 30 applications including "Around Me" and others from your phone." Umm, why? Why 30? Why not all? Why any at all? No indication given. Okay, I don't care about the apps -- just the book for now -- so let's ignore the app's. I uncheck the 'Sync Apps' box. Message: "Not syncing your apps will remove all applications and their data from your iPhone." Are you <edited by host> kidding me? Where is the sanity in that? All I want you to do is LEAVE MY APPS ALONE. Instead, my options are lose 30, or lose all of them. Granted, there are probably ways to get them back after losing them, but all I want to do is go to lunch with my new book, not sit here and think long-term syncing strategy.
    This is one of many examples of the absurd inflexibility of the iTunes<->iPhone relationship.
    Another is the incessant backups that take 20 minutes. All I want to do is put a 200mb audio file on my phone and go to lunch. That should take less time than it took to download the file, not nearly two orders of magnitude more (after downloading the book, it took nearly 45 minutes to get my phone back to a usable state). Not only does the phone get backed up, but I notice that the syncing process includes transferring files that were ALREADY ON THE PHONE back to the phone.
    Seriously, Apple? How is it that you can be so good at user experience EVERYWHERE ELSE and <edited by host> so hard at it here?
    I'd say get a grip, but I'm not sure that's the message I want to send.
    P.S. The fact that I'm this frustrated is obviously an indication of how otherwise invested I am in your products. It is indeed a love-hate relationship.

    From the description I would assume you normally connect your iPod at home, but you made the purchase at work managed to connect to a different library that has the same content. Have you recently had to rebuild the library following a crash?
    Apple have designed iTunes to associate the iPhone with a single library. When you connect it to a different library iTunes will want to erase all apps and media content (except the built-in apps) and replace them with stuff from the local libray. This happens even if you have the iPhone in manually manage mode and is different from the behaviour of earlier iPod models.
    Alternatively you could have used the iTunes app on the iPhone to make your purchase, connecting to local wi-fi if necessary to download larger files. I often do this to acquire podcasts before leaving home/work just in case syncing takes longer than usual for some reason.
    Alternatively, if my original guess was correct and you want to be able to update your iPhone from work, home, anywhere else you happen to be, it can be done with a portable clone of your library. See this thread:

  • Your flash player 11 keeps crashing windows 8. when are you going to release flash player for win 8

  • What are you using as a Flash replacement for 64-bit machines?

    Hi,
    I was reading about the vulnerabilities in Adobe's Flash and decided to remove the offending package. I opened Chromium to make sure my Flash still worked, as I understood that Chromium implemented another method for rendering Flash stuff. I was wrong. For example, YouTube tells me that I need Flash 10 or higher. I tried to re-install the flashplugin package, but it is no longer in the repos.
    I can live without Flash content, but it's nice to have.
    So the question is, what are you using instead, that can be installed from the main repos?
    Many thanks,
    Chris.

    I have installed both lightspark 0.4.3 and gnash 0.8.8, since lightspark should be able to 'fall back to gnash for older videos' (see changelog of lightspark).
    I have tried some flash-websites in firefox and all of them seem to use gnash and there was 1 website that didn't load the content (www.deredactie.be - our national tvstation). So, I'm under the impression that lightspark is not used by firefox.
    Has anyone found out how to do this?
    Secondly, gnash should be able to use VA-API (hardware acceleration). Is it just a question to install libva and let gnash do the rest, or does one have to recompile gnash to build the support in?
    Zl.
    PS: to whoever thinks flashplugin is the 'real flash': gnash has beaten it in terms of providing hardware acceleration. hooray for opensource!

  • When are we going to get infinite scrolling for the S4.  All other carriers have it on the S4 and it is frustrating that it is turned off for Verizon only.

    All other carrier S4 phones have the option to turn infinite scrolling on/off.  However with Verizon there is no option and it is turned off.  Every forum I go to says that you have to root the device to turn it back on.  VERIZON are you going to listen to the myriad of people the would like this option, a basic option advertised for the Samsung S4?  Please PLEASE PLEASE give us the option back.

  • I am going to get a replacement for my iphone 5C, for data connection issues. Can I get an 5S, instead of antother 5C as a replacement?

    Hello, I have been having issues with my iPhone 5C for about a month now. I have unlimited everything, including data, & so randomly, starting about 2 weeks ago, my data basically does not work for any apps, besides like iMessage & Safari. So like if I have full LTE signal, I can try to open the Instagram app, and it will tell me "no internet connection", & it tells me that with ANY app, besides iMessage & Safari. Which is super frustrating, especially when I try to use like Maps or something & it jut does not load, & tells me that "there is not an internet connection", so I have to use apps & stuff only on wifi, in order for them to work. I went to the Sprint store, and had them try and update the data profile, reset data network, soft reset, etc (they basically did everything that I did), & they could NOT figure out what was wrong with my phone. So, they looked into my warranty information, and told me to take my phone to the Apple Store, and just get a replacement & that it would cost me only $50, since it is still covered under warranty. I am not up for an upgrade until April of 2016, & as far as I know, when it comes to replacements, Apple will either give me a new/refurbished iPhone 5C as a replacement. I don't really mind having to pay a little extra if I have to, in order to get a 5S , & I also don't care if the 5S would be either new or refurbished. So, my question is, could I maybe get a 5S as a replacement, instead of another 5C?

  • Do you have to get special packages for the iphone?

    Do you have to get special packages, that you have to pay for monthly, in order to get say internet, GPS, weather, etc?

    As noted, you have to purchase the $30/month unlimited data plan, which covers all internet and email access, including the iPhone YouTube, weather, maps, and stock widgets. For SMS, you can pay-as-you-go, or sign up for one of the packages (I'll be getting the $5 for 200/month add-on).
    GPS is free, though various location based applications and services may not be.

  • When are you going to get rid of your "this is embarrassing message"? it is highly annoying and I may switch back to IE because of it.

    This message pops up after a crash. Of course it is embarrassing to you. Do I need to know how you feel about it? Mainly it is annoying to me that it crashed. I don't want to know what you think or that you're sorry. Just fix it. It's not cute. It's not clever. I have started using Internet Explorer more and more to avoid this eyesore.

  • Can I get a replacement for my iPhone 5s in Europe which I have bought in Middle East?

    Hi there,
    I bought my iPhone 5s two months ago, when I was in Iran for vacation. Now, it is dead and I can not turn it on!!! Some of my friends tell me that some of these iPhone 5s are factory defect and that is why Apple asked everyone who has bought iPhone 5s and have problem with it, to send it back and get a new one.
    I called Apple Customer Service in Europe and told them the story, but I got the answer: You have to contact Apple or one of their agents in Iran for repair. My problem is that Apple has no office or agency in Iran, because the country is under the US sanction.
    So my question is: Is there anyone in the community who knows with 100% certainty that Apple in Europe is bound/committed to exchange the defect one with a new one or at least repair it for me?
    P.S. I have checked the Apple Support for my Service and Support Coverage by providing the serial number. It is active (Estimated Expiration Date: 15 January 2015) and my product is covered for eligible hardware repairs and service under Apple's Limited Warranty.
    I appreciate if someone give me an qualified answer.
    With regards
    Kioumars

    The issue here is Apple does not have any presence (Apple direct or AASP) in Iran.
    The iPhone, if purchased in Iran, was grey market or used and will not be serviced under any Apple warranty in Iran.

  • Can I still get a replacement for free

    My iPod touch has been charging on my bed and it has fell off and cracked all the screen. I still have a warranty as I got it last may. Can anybody help?

    The warranty does not cover accidental damage, so no, you will not get a replacement for free. Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
    There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPod serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further support from Apple will be void.
