My iPhone broken due to heat. What do I do?

I spent the last week in Italy and a couple of days in my iPhone 4s which I've had just over a year stopped working. I was playing a fairly simple game and listening to music in my hotel room when it froze, turned off and now I can't turn it on/ do anything.

I originally presumed it was internally damaged because I was using it outside and it was boiling to be fair but then it was working fine then and when I used it later at a perfect temperature it broke.

Firstly, is this my fault? And what should I do about it, should I contact my contract provider or Apple? Where will it be fixed?

My friend that lives in Arizona says that when his phone gets too hot it shuts off but gives him a message that says please cool your device down. So yes, I would contact the apple store. My dad did this once and they have him the next phone up.

Solution: smash the *** out of it with a hammer.

  • Will my iPhone 5 be affected by the heat? My phone will be shipped to my house in about two weeks and I want to know if the heat will affect it if it sits in front of my house the whole day. I do live in Arizona and it still gets pretty hot throughout the day.
  • Why does my iphone heat up sometimes? I was watching youtube when I realized that my phone was getting warm. When I took off the cover and held the phone it was even hotter than maybe 100 degrees because in comparison to my forehead temp when I have a fever, the iphone was even hotter than that. Why does this happen? How to I fix it?
