i think i know what u're talking about..
basically the front screen shud be leveled with the rim of the phone..
somehow one corner of the screen got out a little bit.. when u swipe ur finger across the screen, u'll feel a sharp edge..

i had the same too.. but now no more.. i guess that was because i applied some "force" on that corner once in a while.. but not recommended though.. who knows if u've applied too much of force..
*
yeah.. u got wat i mean. i afraid after some force, sooner or later the lcd will be affected. do u think maxis will warranty on such case? i'm afraid they will jz refurbish or try to pressure n fix down my lcd screen during service n gif it bek to me as a new one. sooner or later the edge will bounce up again or getting worst.. sigh.. hopefully i can get a one to one exchange.. but jz nw i went to 1U Mac fair.. i ask the iphone consultant there, he told me tat 1 to 1 exchange is only limited to 7 days in purchase.. i was huh?? i neva heard from others mention bout tis?? wonder hw true is tis.. bad service no matter maxis or mac (msia).

Hey guys, i need some help here.
I've changed my username and settings on the APN (by enabling bundle support etc) to disable edge/gprs ages ago and it was succesful. Hotlink never charged me anything because could not connect to cellular data network etc etc.
THE PROBLEM HERE NOW IS SUDDENLY ITS CHARGING ME AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO WORK 100% fine now. I changed the user to x, password to x but everything still working?!
I even tried doing the unlockit.co.nz but it still charges me..help me someone?
Btw, my iphone is 3g and is unlocked using blackra1n if that helps?

All said and done, just send it in to Maxis. That is no harm in making a try. And there is no such thing as a 7 days period for 1-for-1 exchange. Warranty is for 1 year.

If one qualifies for a warranty claim, the telco has the prerogative to either repair(if minor and repairable) or replace the unit. If it is the latter, then in most instances it will be with a refurbished unit. Notwithstanding, such units are usually as good as new. My advice however is when you collect the replacement, is to give it a once over and make sure, particularly physically it is 'good'.

hi sifus,

i've been scouring all 65 pages of the threads and 41 pages of this thread http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/871684 for some answers/hints etc to my burning question.
so at the risk of offending any one of you, may i ask some stupid questions:

i'm selling my [version 3.0 OS] 2G jailbroken 16G iphone to a friend. what i would like to know is whether these steps are in the right directions or am i being 'the blind leading the blind' wink.gif

1. i've erased all content & settings
2. for my friend to start using the iphone, he would need to restore & then jailbrake the iphone again?
3. can he simply register his name as the 'new' user of the iphone on itunes?

if i've somehow missed the appropriate thread for my Qs, please redirect.

much tx sifus!

that is why, you should always purchase an iPhone with local warranty support and service or a country which you are predominantly based in.

it depends on whether u need such a smartphone or nt. cz most of my frens bought tis phone cz they wan to play those app games.. plus nwadays iphone is a hit.. they r loaded, so....

actually if u wanna say tat d phone is good in terms of function, i would probably rank it as average.. cz iphone doesn't support a few things.. eventho gt video call function, bt we can't use it for video call to other party. u can't bluetooth wif other phone unless u JB it. it's nt tat user frenly compare to other phone.. cam is jz 3mp.. n etc

of cz d phone has it own good features as well.. to list a few.. we can play apps game. touch sensitive screen.. etc

so think wisely b4 u invest in a new phone.. whether u really need it or it's because lately it's a trend to carry around wif an iphone..
