iPhone repair

Cow Moolester

Hey lads,

I've had an unlocked iPhone since Christmas and it broke today. Apple won't repair it so does anyone know any Irish company that repairs them? thanks

I'd say that it will be almost impossible to get someone to repair it, considering that most of the time when a phone breaks, they just replace it. Also, since it's exclusive to O2 stores and the carphone warehouse, independent phoneshops aren't going to have the equipment or experience to fix it. I think you'll have to buy a new one.
Of course, I'm assuming that the problem is a hardware one and not a software one. If it's a software one, try on this thread: http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055113165

Apple will still repair it but you'll have to pay for the repair, give them a call on 1890 546 191, it'll cost a fair bit though.

What exactly is up with the phone anyway?

The Gambler 101

Have a 1.1.4 iPhone, has been working perfectly since April. I'm on hols at the moment in Mexico and with the vodafone network on roaming. The phone has been working perfectly til this morning. No signal on the phone and no matter what network I select, its not picking any up.

Any ideas?

Anybody know who in Dublin is best (with respect to price) to go to get a screen replaced on a 2G iPhone?

You should probably ask in the apple forum. They would have a lot more experience to give you.
