How to get iphone for cheap or even free?
Q. Hello. I have a phone that's not that good, and I'm really familiar with iphone and I basically need one. But here's the problem. I just signed a 2 year contract and If I wanted a new phone, in this case an iphone, it would be $700 i dont have that kind of money. So my question is, is there any way I could get an iphone 4, 4s, or 5 for cheap or even better, free? Please help. I need it to work and keep things organized. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

A. Check craigslist, but no one is giving theirs away cheap. If it was cheap I would be concerned about what is wrong with it.

Do any stores sell iPhone repair kit?

Q. The screen on my iPhone is cracked, but I just learned that I can replace it myself if I purchase the repair kit. Does anyone know stores that are carrying this item? Also, does anyone have any tips when repairing the screen?
Thanks for taking your time out to read my question.

A. You can purchase a D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) kit on many iPhone repair sites, yet I would suggest getting it professionally repaired. As easy as a screen repair may look, it is actually more difficult and time consuming than it seems.

Also, there are very fragile parts on the logic board that can be easily damaged. Once these parts (connectors) are damaged, your device is unrepairable. I would strongly suggest visiting an iPhone repair site, such as the one linked just below.

If you do decide to repair the device yourself, you can find many tutorials on YouTube that will show you how to do it.

Hope this helps! Good luck! =]

Iphone 3G cracked screen: Can I repair with windshield glass repair kit?
Q. I know there are replacement glass ensembles out there - too expensive I'd rather wait to upgrade to a new 3GS in six months. In the meantime, is there a temporary solution to fix the glass using windshield repair kit?

A. You could try but depending on where the crack is and such the 'touch' part may not work in that area anymore.
I would tough it out and just leave the scratch there for the next 6 months unless it's really awful.

Can I take out my Iphone 3G SIM card and use it with a Sidekick LX?
Q. I want to sell my iphone 3g on ebay but keep my sim card and buy a sidekick lx (unlocked). Will I be able to use my Iphone SIM card with the sidekick?
Also, will i still keep the same plan? (Unlimited text, minutes, and unlimited data.) Will the Iphone data plan work with the Sidekick?

A. Sim card should work in the sidekick. If you use the sidekick on AT&T, the bad news is that internet, picture messaging and instant messaging will not work. Calling features and texting will work. If you use IM forwarding through text messaging then you can use instant messaging that way.

What is the best phone out with Verizon right now? Droid X or Iphone? Reviews please?

Q. I'd like to know in your opinions what are the best phones out with verizon right now? I'm getting a new phone tonight and I'm not sure if I should go with the Droid X or the Iphone? Or another? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

A. get the droid x (or if you can the galaxy s2), with a app called "double twist" you can sync all your itunes music to your android

I prefer android over apple for the reason that its open-source, that means that the majority of the apps are free, and you get more revolutionary and cutting edge apps. And do things are even only barely available on a jail broken iphone
The android market already has 250000 apps- closing in on apple 500000; some say it will surpass it before the year is over. Also any popular iphone game or game adaptation can be found in the android market for free.
Another great thing about android as that if you dont like something (keyboard, homescreen, etc.) it can easily be swapped without jail-breaking, unlike the iphones one-size-fits-all approach.

Other features only on android
Turn-by-turn voice GPS
Better and larger screen
No need to connect to computer to sync
Here is a big one, add a sd card
Live wallpaper
Better calls
4g
More customizable
More powerful hardware
Flash support, watch ALL the online videos

Apple lovers that say that the iphone is made of better quality material? They donât realize that Samsung, an android phone maker, supplyâs the screen, processor and memory for apple devices, so android has the advantage here.
The iphone is pretty, but not durable, drop it once- it breaks, all that glass around it? That was honestly a mistake. Android manufactures clearly saw that, and decided to do with something a little more durable.

And the iphones âretina displayâ is a huge scam. By definition a âretina displayâ is one where the human eye cannot distinguish individual pixels. But this is determined by several factors; most important being the distance between the screen and your eyes. The iphones retina distance is 12in, move any closer than that- say 7in and itâs no longer a âretina screenâ because your eyes can now see the pixels, by that same token, if I move my android phone back, to say 16-17in, amazingly, it becomes a retina screen as well! (feel free to google this)

Also apple never invents anything, all they do is steal old technology, give it a fresh coat of paint and mass advertise it as âmagicalâ and âinnovatingâ, thus fooling the mass of the population into believing that apple offers cutting edge technology, that in fact has been around for quite a few years.
So instead of innovating, apple actually hinders technology- after 4 years they still have low-power single core phones, while android, an example of technology in overdrive, has rumored that, after their second year, the release of quad core phones that will surpass even some desktop computers in shear processing power.

Apple should now feel pretty worried; android has passed it in market share
http://www.businessinsider.com/android-iphone-market-share-2011-4

Then apple panics and sues
http://www.dailytech.com/Google+ExCEO+Apple+Doesnt+Innovate+They+Sue/article22190.htm
The funny thing is that apple canât sue for being the first touchscreen or tablet, because they werenât,(Nokia fist touch screen, âarchosâ first tablet) so instead they sue for much more relevant things like, âthe rounded icon cornersâ and âhaving a flat screenâ or âthe square shape of the phoneââ¦â¦..

To top it all, if youâve seen apples 2011 presentation, they blatantly copied over five "new" features that were previously on android.
http://androidandme.com/2011/06/news/five-features-in-ios-5-that-show-how-apple-is-now-playing-catch-up-to-google/

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/06/apple-introduces-ios5-with-notifications-ota-updates-and-tabbed-browsing-android-users-giggle-at-their-late-arrival/
1. Notification bar
2. Twitter integration
3. No need to connect to PC to sync
4. Launch apps from lock screen
5. Tabbed browsing

And not only are they copies, but apple didnât even bother to improve, or change some of them in any way- some even have LESS features than their android counter parts, itâs basically a cheap imitation with the ever-popular iphone skin.
According to Steve jobs, these "revolutionary" new technologies that android users had since 2007 will be available on IOS5, and it would not surprise me to see some more android features from 2008 on IOS6.But the truly sad part is that due to apples marketing, in a few months, apple lovers will really think that apple invented those features and call android the copycatsâ¦yet again.

Though I suppose Google shouldâve seen it comingâ¦.

What accessories should i buy with my iphone 4?

Q. I'm getting my first iphone and it's coming in today. I ordered my otterbox last night, but it won't be in for 3-5 weeks. I would like a good case for the time being, due to my clumsiness. I can get 3 accessories for 40% off with my iphone purchase, so what items should i get? should i go to the apple store and ask for a free case rather than buying one?

A. I love the looks of Barely There case for iPhone 4 http://iphone-4-case.org/barely-there-iphone-4-case/ but still up to decide if I really need one.

How do I get a prototype made for my idea?
Q. Hello,

I currently have an idea for an iphone accessories.It could actually be for all phones not just iphones. However, I need to get this thing developed but have no clue to where to start. Can anyone out there help me? Who do I go talk to in order to get this accessory made? I would highly appreciate it. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon.

A. You need an enclosure, board layout, firmware programming, etc. Contact an electronics R&D shop, there are plenty of them out there.

Just so you know, the skills and materials needed for this kind of thing are expensive, so be prepared to shell out a lot of cash and be on the hunt for investors. Some R&D firms will meet you half way by reducing upfront costs in exchange for a share of the profits. Its part of the deal, usually inventors only see 10% or so the profits from their idea, but it is better than nothing.

Also, don't be lured in by cheap outsourcing firms...I made this mistake. They'll farm it out to China, but since China doesn't have any copyright or patent laws, they'll "borrow" your design and make their own cheap knockoff after 3-6 months go by, putting you out of business. They even did this with Apple's iPhone and iPad.

Is is still worth it getting an iphone 4s?
Q. i want a new phone, and its either samsung galaxy s3, which i know is to compete with the iphone 5, but that will be super expensive contract, so is there still any point getting the iphone 4s? as soon as the iphone5 comes out , will the iphone 4s dissapear as quick as the iphone 3 did when 4 came out? thanks.

A. I was faced with exactly the same choice only a few weeks ago, and I settled with the SIII. Must admit, couldn't be happier. The thing is, my mobile operator heavily advertises 2 years warranty on all of their phones, but it turned out that for the iPhone (which already cost double the SIII), I had to pay an extra 80$! What a rip off!

The iPhone 5 will be just as, if not more, locked down than the iPhone 4S, so personally, now that I've experienced Android, I would never buy it. Plus, the iPhone 5 will have a new connector, and no existing accessories will work with it. The SIII? Oh, it has MicroUSB, the standard for phones and many other things nowdays. You can even hook it up directly to your TV using a cable, or using WiFi. If you want to do that with an iPhone, you need to get a 100$ Apple TV aswell...

The iPhone 4S won't disappear, but the iPhone 3GS which is currently sold on the cheap, will. It will still probably cost more than the Galaxy SIII.

Q. I have a iPhone 4 32 gb on Verizion! Is it worth it to jailbreak it? I have jailbroken my iPod 2 gen and it made it really slow. I am scared it will make my iPhone slow too! Also I have insurance from Verizion and if I break my phone will I get a new one for the highly discounted price from Verizion?

is there a way to visually tell the difference between a 16 gb and 32gb iphone 4?
Q. I am debating with a friend who tried to lie and say his iphone 4 is a 32 gb and he wont show me the settings is there a way I can visually tell just by looking at the back like you could with the 3GS?

A. There is absolutely no way to tell unless you either look at the box or if you look into the settings.

Just an FYI: the iPhone 4 does not show the storage capacity on the back like the other iPhones do.

I hope this helps!
