Better start with a fresh phone rather than a phone stuffed with garbage that you don't know off. You can get those apps back from installer but the cracked ones ... umm .. well ... whistling.gif innocent.gif

I bought my iPhone second hand also. I just rest the basic like touchscreen, speaker, wifi, edge connection, camera and the condition of all buttons. If you are not sure just ask the seller the way to do it. Of course, call in and out, vibrate should to test also.

That's what I do when I get my phone. Because iPhone has no warranty even 2nd hand or new one so better be very sure

yeah..the warranty i'm worried about if anything goes wrong with the phone..since singapore is selling iphone..can we just send there for warranty?

well, I did restore my phone few days later as some software is not properly deleted. When I got my iPhone I only have 23mb or so. But when I restore and install apps that I want... I still have 65mb. Well the apps is available in the installer so no need to be afraid if restore.

NO!

You can read the thread below starting from post #8 regarding the warranty. Even the 2nd gen iPhone warranty is not that flexible to where we can claim it.

Damn noks... you drag me in... brows.gif

TS... if you are buying 2nd hand item by walk in or cod, maybe you can check the physical condition and functionality based on the particular given to you here rightaway to compare with the offered price... as for this stage, thats the only guide you have and what you should know... once that beauty is in ur hand, then talk again bout how to brick ur iphone in a fastest and effective way *lol*.... btw, suitable and competible apps can be dicussed later which is always self explanatory. e.g. "This apps is only for firmware 1.1.4"...

P/S: Are you sure you're wearing a right tag? hmm.gif
