Tell me then, how does a vibrator in a phone work?
well err umm private matters but i guess its not to figure out but im not going to get banned telling you. pm me if you really can't figure it out!
the 1st was for a yellow screen, like you cant even get a white page, so i got the replacement and it had a nice white screen (still has a rattle) but i found out it has dust or some water mark under the screen lol so now they are sending me one more. so they are holding $1,200
but the guy said "im not sending you this replacement for the screen because thats how it is on all 3gs's but for the rattle sound you get.." what a douce. today i talked to an apple supervisor and he was super nice.
didnt charge me any shipping fees.. thats a priority overnight shipping.
well its not supposed to make any sound when it doesnt need too... we are talking about a rattling sound, that isnt coming from the vibrate function because its not turned on.
all 3gS has screens with water-marks? not sure i want one so badly nowthe 1st was for a yellow screen, like you cant even get a white page, so i got the replacement and it had a nice white screen (still has a rattle) but i found out it has dust or some water mark under the screen lol so now they are sending me one more. so they are holding $1,200

uhh no, mine doesnt just a yellow tint.. i really want this to be over with. hope the new replacement will be the last.
I think a more appropriate poll would be how soon after buying your non-flawed iPhone did it begin to have problems. For example, soon after buying it my phone started to crack (at the point where you plug the USB in). The ring where the mic plugs in also cracked... not that I actually care about those issues, but I suspect many people would say they had problems too soon after they purchased the phone.
My 3G S case was misaligned when the parts were put together. I could feel it when my finger went across the seam.
Lost a Invisible Shield screen protector wehn I traded it for a new one from the Apple store.

Mine has a rattle that I discovered without even going into these forums. I don't consider it a defect as it doesn't affect my phone's function. It's not annoying either.
Both sides of the USB plug are cracked. One of the cracks is about an inch long. If I pulled on it, I bet I could tear/peal half of the backing of the phone off.
Is it worth sending away for replacement? Hardly. I have had my phone since launch date of last year. I plan to use it/enjoy it until I feel the need to upgrade. I also don't see a point of replacing it for "bodywork" because if I do I'll probably just drop the new phone anyway.
let me makes this clear, all iphone 3gs's have the rattle sound. sorry to say but i was misinformed that it was a defect.
yes it could be annoying at times but what can you do?
