IPhone charge point damaged?
Ok so where the charger connects to the iPhone, the small lines are bent up on the left side and now it won't charge. How can I get this fixed? (3GS) model
I had some problems with my old 3gs not worth repairing and apple want silly money, put mine on ebay and got a really good price for it with no screen working and connectors broke, you would prob only have to put about £30 towards what you sell yours for and buy another half decent one although ild get the 4 or 4s as battery life is 1000 times better
New buy yar.
If you think you can, take a go at bending them straight into position again. Preferably using a needle-nose plier. You could drop past an apple store and ask them, if you find someone nice they could do a quick fix for you for free. If no luck then you might have to buy a new one. Don't keep trying to force the bent pin points into the charger, it could spoil the phone's charging point, which would cost much more to repair. Once you repair it, keep it in mind for a few days, to check whether the battery of the phone lasts as long as usual and it doesn't overheat. Those would be signs that it could be charging fine apparently but effecting the charge in some way.
- What's the point of unlocking an iphone? Hi guys so i know people unlock their iphones because they want to change carrier but the locked iphones are sold for 200$ so would it be possible to buy a locked iphone in the us & unlock it in belgium? I mean wouldnt that save like 400$? That seems like an impossibly good deal but maybe i don't really get what a locked iphone is.

- What is the point of iMessage on the iPhone? I do not get it. It's "faster"? That's all I've heard. But ever since that feature was added my texts started randomly not going thru or not sending for a few minutes. A little at first but worse and worse and now probably every day. Why not just send it as a regular text anyway? So my messages can be in a pretty blue bubble?
- What is the point of buying an iPhone 5 if you can get iOS 6? People say when you get iOS 6, you get to get all the features an iPhone 5 has, but if thats the case then why do you need an iPhone 5? Wouldn't it just be cheaper to buy a suckish iPod and get iOS 6?
