Hi,
My iPhone saga is like this...
I had an iPhone bought sometime end of last year... worked fine except after maybe 5 months the Home button started to have the double click problem when it only recognizes as a click... did everything i go do to try to troubleshoot it and fix it. None worked so I went in and exchanged my iPhone.
BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE...
As I learned after, Apple doesn't fix the problem but rather changes your phone for a refurbished one... I have nothing against refurbished phones, but I do have against faulty ones.
The first phone I got seemed to work fine until I started noticing the wifi reception was crap, then it went to null... Basically i had to be 5cm (not exaggerating) from the router or AP to have 1 bar of wifi...
Went in and exchanged for a new one... This time I took my laptop and went to a shopping mall with WIFI to test all the features of the phone... Everything was fine and I was happy!
After about 3 weeks of use instead of the noise of my alarm clock I heard something that would sound like static... i Thought the phone went crazy so i rebooted, cold restarted it, everything... And still every time some sound was expected from the speaker only a weird noise would come out as if the speaker just blew.
Here i go again to change my phone... I get a new one already suspicious that I'm going to get a faulty one again... because apparently the people that work in reassembling the iPhones in China are idiots...
The new phone, the one i have right now started to work a bit weird with very bad reception, I thought it was a problem from the network since i was in the middle of Poland, more precisely in Lodz. I bought a cover since I didn't take one from the city i work in, Poznan, and with the cover things seemed to be more calm and working more normally. Then i started to notice the phone sometimes losing network from full bars to Searching... And then after 1 week it was sitting on my desk I was looking at it and BUM! Searching... No Signal... and loops back to Searching... No Signal... Again i have tried restarting, disabling 3G, Cellular Data, nothing works...
So here I go again to change my iPhone...
To summarize...
Original iPhone 4 - Button Problems
1st Replacement iPhone 4 - Wifi signal problems
2nd Replacement iPhone 4 - Speaker stopped working
3rd Replacement iPhone 4 - Doesn't get any GSM signal (3G or 2G)
Let's see what surprise Apple reserved me for my 5th iPhone 4...
