I bought it from the carphone warehouse, I've paid for it unlocking now. Hopefully I'll be moving back to vodafone.

When you buy an iPhone from Carphone Whorehouse, it isn't unlocked. It locks itself to the network of the sim you use to initially activate it.

First lightning cable dead.

Anyone else having issues with the quality of them?

Tar.

That was my concern but I wasn't sure. It should be unlocked tomorrow and I'll be moving networks so happy days.

I've had my charger replaced but i'm thinking it's the dock on the phone as the charging isn't perfect, connector needs a good shove in and then wiggle. I'll just get the phone replaced.

He did say the cable is usually caused by how people remove and how hashy they are with it.

I had exactly the same issue. Took it too Genius Bar and they said there was fluff in the connector! Fixed within about 2 minutes.

No worries mate. It's apparently really common. It's pocket lint that's gets in there.

But it doesn't do it for all contacts.

It also doesn't appear under her contact info. It only appears if I go to text without using the last conversation.

Getting this too. Had it for years over all my phones. Seems ios7 has it too.

My lock button is finally giving in, works every 1 in 10 times pressed

For anyone interested / following, Apple replaced my iPhone no quibble, its a nice unmarked one also which I didn't get even buying new on release.

 

[imprezaworks]

Good effort that

I stand corrected! Well done sir!

I keep getting a 'sim not inserted' and 'sim failure' error message on my phone. Is it simply a new SIM card to sort this or a visit to the Genius Bar?

Anyone else had similar?

I used to get the same (couple of times a day). I decided to remove the sim, give it a good clean and not had the problem since (good few days now).

Give it a try.

Cheers Al ill give it a go

It'll only be confirmed when Apple decide to announce it.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Well that couldn't of been a more stereotypical response.

 

[Gavin.]

Am I wrong though?

 

[Darius]

The right side of my lock button doesn't work? What can I do? Any tips?

 

[Silent_Scone]

Am I wrong though?

Well if you're being pedantic. Being that it's in production it's unlikely that it's wrong, but if you want to get spoon fed from the almighty instead of taking it from the people that-actually manufacture it then that's up to you lol.

 

[Gavin.]

lol

​Something funny?

 

[Silent_Scone]

Yeah, consumers

 

[Gavin.]

Hilarious, are we done?

 

[Danny133]

Lol @ fingerprint scanner!

 

[paddymph]

Lol @ fingerprint scanner!

That's the one thing I'm certain we will see.

 

[Silent_Scone]

No they've only just started manufacturing.

Don't know if this is a joke post ..

Pure comedy genius.

 

[paddymph]

Haha.

Well they did spend god knows how much on acquiring a fingerprint technology company?! Guess we'll know in a few months..!

 

[Danny133]

Don't believe it .. Might be a feature for the watch there rumoured to be masterminding

Finally picked up a 5 last week. I wasn't planning to upgrade now, but this one was new and was very cheap.
Battery isn't great is it lol.
I'm loving it though. So much quicker than my 4.

 

[imprezaworks]

If the battery life was better the phone would be amazing. Battery life is crap like you say.

 

[Gavin.]

I find it much better under iOS7
