Hey guys, I will be studying in the States soon and I'm planning to get an iPhone 4. I heard that international students have to pay a $500 deposit since we don't have Social Security Numbers? (This is to prevent people taking advantage of the cheap iPhones and running off to Asia)

How do I go about this one? I prefer getting an iPhone with contract. Just pay, no need to think so much.

Gevey sim works perfectly fine for all the locked set. AFAIk, many types of gevey sim. Latest version of gevey will not require you to dial 112 if not mistaken. Check out with seller before purchasing one.

how much did it cost for you to change the flex?

agh..i cannot make up my mind. 3GS or 4 3GS or 4.

rm80 including labor =)

iphone4 of course. retina display is a very2 significant upgrade

dont worry too much about the home button lah. if u got the problem, fix it then. dont go for a 3gs simply cuz u feel ip4 button will break. some 3gs have that issue too u know

Yealo 3GS have this problem as well =)
Not a big deal actually.. Changing a home flex button doesn't requires slot of $$

thanks. now am more confident to get iphone 4.

Or maybe can wait a while for the new iPhone to launch.What you say ?

yeappieeee .. wait another month to see whether the rumors come true anot

guys, i wonder. if iPod is broken, you can claim warranty at apple. but if iPhone is broken u claim warranty at provider or apple?

and can we check the serial number of iPhone via iTunes to know the period of warranty?

only can claim from the local telco provider(MAXIS/CELCOM/DIGI)...
click HERE to check warranty status/period...

sure can la bro ..
if u're going for a new set from telco.. no worries..
if u're getting a used international set.. the warranty cant be claimed here

so if it is international warranty must claim from the country the set is produced? is that it?

why can't we claim from apple?

iphone which is provided by malaysian telco didnt have international warranty...and u cannot claim international warranty from apple malaysia for iphone if u bought the phone from oversea...u only can claim the international warranty from nearest apple(singapore)...

basically if my let say international US iphone is in need of warranty, i can claim to singapore's apple and not malaysia?

u sure singapore offer international warranty?

yes bro..u r rite.im 100% sure singapore offer international warranty..

i memang dunno this haha..

sorry to ask so many questions, between digi,maxis and celcom which one offers official unlocked iPhone?

All of them are officially unlocked

Is it a good idea to get an iPhone 4 at the moment? Or I should wait for the next generation to be on the market?
I'm in a dilemma. If I were to buy a new phone. I'd stick with it for a long time. So what do you guys think?
