Was just at pc apple store. I got my new replacement for stuck pixels! When i was waiting there was a lady who brought in her dropped iPhone 4 totally dented and shattered. The rep that helped her told her that she would pay 219 replacement phone instead of retail. What amazed me more was when she came back, she secretly told her that the replacement would be free just cause she was nice. Intense. Now I'm not scared of dropping my phone! Ha!

Posted via RS Mobile | They did the same to me haha. I think it was $229, though, for any kind of replacement. (Not only cracked screen.)
I'm thinking of buying the additional year of coverage through the AppleCare Protection Plan. First year of coverage will run out in November. Did anyone buy it for their phone?

edit: god damn, just as i typed this he walks in and hands me his new phone, a Blackberry.

My friend throws his phone on the ground when he's pissed drunk. He smashed his iPhone. The glasses was completely shattered all around.
Brought it to Apple Store and somehow charmed his way into getting it replaced for free.

My location services/check-ins isn't working. Does anyone know how to fix it?
I tried googling it, but no luck. The "Location Services" and every app is on. But my facebook check ins doesn't seem to work.
The "location services status icon" is always on and I can't seem to turn that thing off too. Can anyone help me out? TIA.

^ I don't know why anyone would get a 4 with the 5 so close to release. At least wait for the 5, and if you still want a 4 there's likely going to be deals galore.

Yes it's $1.65. I think it's a back to school promo until September.
You do have a to sign up with a 3 year contract with a $50+ plan.

I'm taking my iPhone 4 in for a replacement due to a home button issue where I have to tap a few times to have it work. My iPhone is jailbroken...will I need to remove the jailbreak or do they just swap it there without checking? Thanks

- backup phone
- click on the restore option
- wait for firmware to download & install
You should have a factory restored phone once it's done. Book an appointment for the genius bar on the apple website @ the store of your choosing. Show up & explain the problem and you should be out of there with a brand new phone within 5 minutes.
I had the same issue and that's how long it took to get a new replacement.

Can you opt for an unlocked version for additional fee?
What about getting an upgrade to a 32gb for an additional fee?
I have a locked iphone 4 16gb, but would like an unlocked 32gb...
