IPhone Back Panel Replacement (Black 16GB)

Hi,
I am thinking about using my iPhone without my Griffin Wave case. My only worry is, as i like to look after my gadgets, if the back gets too scratched is there an option to replace it at an apple retail store (Birmingham, UK is my nearest Apple Store). The front bit is no problem as i have a screen protector on there. There is no serial number of the back so i am assuming that all back panels are made identical.
How much would this cost if they can do it?

Apple doesn't offer a la carte service like replacing the back. There are third party vendors that will replace it for a fee.

I am Using Iphone 3GS, Is it possible to change the complete front and back panels?

I am Using I Phone 3GS model I got lot of scraches over the body of the phone. Is it possible to replace teh complete panel with new one??

If you Google "iPhone 3gs parts" you will be able to find vendors that sell front and back panels. So, I would say it is possible to replace the front and back panels. I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself unless you are experienced in this type of work.

I did a search and couldn't find anything. I think your best bet would be covering it with a slim case to change the look.

IPhone 4S Back Panel Loose (Need Advise)

Hello, everyone.
I would really appreciate if you will read whole message.
I’m Max. I live in Ukraine and as Apple doesn’t officially sell it’s phones here people frequently buy expansive imported iPhones (European, US or UK ones usually). And so I did. Obviously those are not covered by any of Apple’s policies or official warranty, if covered by anything at all. I mean here. So I ended up with new iPhone 4S from Italy with three (3) month of it-is-not-an-issue-pay-or-get-lost warranty.
Now, the problem is that phone’s back panel making sounds after a month of really intensive use (gaming, etc.): it clicks when pressed sometimes and it kinda knocks if tapped quite a bit. All the issues are within the area where battery resides. I don’t know what to think. It might be glue lost adhesive or something. I don’t want it to get worse.
At service point we tried tightening screws and resealing back, but accomplished nothing. Guy there told me that he can’t replace the panel because there are no visual defects or a single flaw he can consider as warranty case. Even part itself looked perfect to him. Of course device replacement simply isn’t an option too. I don’t feel like spending money myself either for now.
And what is interesting is that he shown me four or five iPhones (4s and 4Ss) currently in his service due to completely different reasons and all of them had gaps and loosen backs of different sorts, including really horrific ones. He said it’s quite a normal («normal» means most iPhones, in his opinion, have that flaw). I understand that all of them were used by different people under different circumstances.
So the question is how many iPhones (if any) experience such an issues? Maybe yours? How old phone was when it started? How many of your friends phones doing it? Please, do not answer if you’re not sure.
Note: it’s a real iPhone that I own, not a copy of any sort. Also, I’m acknowledged about camera lens rattling. It’s definitely not the case.

Either, is fine, but to avoid a possible long wait, make a Genius appointment. Here is link:

Can I have the back panel of my iPhone 5s replaced (it is damaged, but the phone is still operational) if i come into an Apple store?

Can I have the back panel of my iPhone 5s replaced (it is damaged, but the phone is still operational) if i come into an Apple store?

I have applecare plus, but this only covers operational issues or 2 accidental issues (ex., water damage, drop and phone operation is affected).
Apple would not be willing to charge me for the back panel and labor involved in replacing it?
Thanks.

My iphone 4s has korean characters and 1 icon that looks like IC at the back panel and KCC-CMM-APA-A1387.

My iphone 4s has korean characters and 1 icon that looks like IC at the back panel and KCC-CMM-APA-A1387. Compared to the other iphone 4s that have 6 icons printed. Serial number is recognized by apple systems though like App Store, Coverage Check etc. Should i be worried about the authenticity of this product? I got it at a Mall shop that sells apple products but I am not so comfortable about the difference of the icons at the back. I told them about my issue and they said if it were bootleg I wouldnt be able to register the product and the serial number which I was able to do. Help please.

Oops sorry. My bad. I'm in the Philippines. I'm quite concerned because i know a lot of bootlegged stuff go around the market here. Yes, they told me it was unlocked and not tied up with a local network carrier so I can use any network sim card with it. The icons on the phone and all functions are available and working well like all iphone 4Ss that i have tried. Its just the icons printed at the back panel of the phone that are different, the ones that look like FC X C E etc printed at the back of a common iphone. Mine has an icon that looks like IC only.

I broke the back to my iphone 4 how much will this cost to get the back panel fixed

i got my iphone in october so it should still be in warranty ? and how much is it to get a new back panel put on?

warranty doesn't cover accidental damage. In the US, the back cover can be replaced for $29.00 at the Genius Bar

Camera glare after replacement back panel fitted.

A week ago, I submitted a question about the smudges on the rear of my iPhone 4.
Earlier today, I took the phone to the Apple Store, having made an appointment at the Genius Bar.
They were very helpful, took the phone out back and replaced the back panel for me, so I have no more smudges (obviously).
Unfortunately, the camera lens cover doesn't look as clear as my girlfriend's iPhone 4 (which is crystal clear).
I have tried a microfibre to clean it as I thought it might have some residue on it from being a new part.
It basically just looks as if the inside of the lens cover needs wiping, but obviously I cannot do this.
On closer inspection it looks as if there is small marks (perhaps a fingerprint) on the inside of the pack panel, could this have been made by the man at the store as he fitted the new back panel?

Ah okay, so you think there is also a film on the inside that may still be on? Luckily I'm in Southampton again on Tuesday evening, so will try to pop in and get that sorted. Will definitely check closely before I leave this time - I didn't think to even look for any problem like this when I left the store. It's a bit more inconvenient than the initial smudges, as this is actually affecting the camera and pictures taken!
Thanks

Hey floridiansue,
Do you have an installed email program such as Microsoft Outlook? If your email is through an online login, such as Gmail, etc, then one will have to create an email association with a program such as Microsoft Outlook on the PC for this Scan to Email system to function.

White mark instead of Image

Hi.
I try to place an image at a panel.
Here is the whole program:
public class Frame1 extends JFrame {
JPanel contentPane;
JPanel jPanel1 = new JPanel();
JLabel jLabel1 = new JLabel();
public Frame1() {
contentPane = (JPanel) this.getContentPane();
contentPane.setLayout(null);
this.setSize(new Dimension(400, 300));
jPanel1.setBounds(new Rectangle(46, 50, 303, 193));
jPanel1.setLayout(null);
jLabel1.setBounds(new Rectangle(110, 39, 83, 74));
contentPane.add(jPanel1, null);
jLabel1.setIcon(new ImageIcon("logo.jpg"));
jPanel1.add(jLabel1, null);
But instead of image I got a white mark.
Can someone help me?
I broke the head!

Hi,
As far as i understand..the problem is you r not resizing your image and what you r seeing is only part of the image(which incidently is a white mark in logo.jpg), that is of your label size.
Try options like -
1. Increase the size of ur JLabel and u will see the bigger image.
2. choose a picture that exactly fits your label.
3. you can also resize your image by using the following code -
* Resize the image.
*@param original path of image file to be resized.
*@param wid width of the resized image.
*@param het height of the resized image.
*@return Image
public static Image resize(String original, int wid, int het) {
          Image resizedImage = null;
          try {
               File originalFile = new File(original);
               ImageIcon ii = new ImageIcon(originalFile.getCanonicalPath());
               Image i = ii.getImage();
               int iWidth = i.getWidth(null);
               int iHeight = i.getHeight(null);
               if ((wid > iWidth) && (het > iHeight)) {
                    return i;
               if (wid < iWidth && het > iHeight) {
                    resizedImage = i.getScaledInstance(wid, iHeight
                                        , Image.SCALE_DEFAULT);
               } else if (wid > iWidth && het < iHeight){
                    resizedImage = i.getScaledInstance(iWidth, het
                                        , Image.SCALE_DEFAULT);
               } else {
                    resizedImage = i.getScaledInstance(wid, het
                                        , Image.SCALE_DEFAULT);
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          return resizedImage;
     }use this then
Image selectedImage = Photo.resize(selectedFile,ICON_WIDTH, ICON_HEIGHT);
          JPanel jImagePane = new JPanel();
          jImagePane.add(
          new JLabel(new ImageIcon(selectedImage)));hope this helps,

HT3226 My iphone 4s fell down on the floor and a very very small bit on the edge of my iphone were broken. Can I insert a new iphone body panel with replace the old one

My iphone 4s fell down on the floor and a very very small bit on the edge of my iphone were broken. Can I insert a new iphone body panel with replace the old one.. ???

I think I had it on the iCloud, I just changed computers and had part of my old computer backed up, where are the default iTunes info saved like the pictures and I know my contacts were backed up cuz I kept getting updated stuff that I wasn't sure about, but it was contacts where some belonged to my wife's contacts....but anyway, if the cloud backed up contacts, it should have grabbed pictures too? Like I asked before, if they were backed up to the computer, is there a default iTunes folder they are saved to? I had a crap load of pictures on there that I usually could really access if I was connected to wi-fi. I turned off my data stuff as I only have 4GB and between me and my 2 kids, we seemed to use up a lot of it. My son would play music from Pandora during work, and use up all our data til I limited him to only 3GB, my daughter and I barely used 1GB. Anyway, thanks to everybody that is answering. I thought I might have done good finding the dang sim card, but pointless I guess.
Ralph - F.Y.I. I would be happy to back up the iPhone if I could turn it on LOL......I am pretty positive I did, but what about Text messages? ANY of those saved too or not? Sorry guys, I don't know a **** of a lot about cell phones, but I do know about memory cards, but not sim cards that act like memory cards or look like them anyway. What is the purpose of a sim card if I may ask a stupid question since they don't hold any data from my phone stuff. I just hope my stuff comes back on the new replacement phone once I get it up and running. Again, thanks to everybody for the edumucation.
