greetings iphone users, does anyone have a good place to get an iphone fixed? Or any alternatives? I have a rather peculiar issue where the volume buttons appear to be jammed and is causing erratic behaviour. Symptoms include :-

-Unable to lower/increase volume
-Opening received smss will cause the volume icon to appear and not go away until its locked
-Phone will ring only once then become silent(still ringing)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I dont think the phone is that fragile, but you'll probably hear more requests on where to get it fix because it's a tough question. Things like grey import nokia/motorola/samsungs are a lot more straight forward.
