iPhone Earbuds broken inside, will the replace the phone too

right, my friends iPhone 4 is out of warranty, they have since however replaced their headphones, so they have a years warranty still. The end of the plug has broken off inside the headphone port of the phone.

Will Apple fix the phone under the Warranty of the earbuds as it is the earbuds that have caused the issue?

They won't replace the phone. The mini jack tip can be removed easily once they open the phone.

Thanks for replying, he got lucky and managed to remove it with some tweezers he found!!
