Will Apple replace 3GS if silent button broke?

[bosoxnm3]

A couple of months ago, I dropped my iPhone in the toilet and got the $200 out of warranty replacement. A day later, the speaker on the refurbished one broke so they replaced it with one. Well, I woke up today and my silent button is broken. I did drop my phone yesterday, but I didn't notice the silent button stopped. Do you think they will replace this one too?

It's always hard to know how they will react to damage from a drop, but it's worth a shot to bring it in.

I have known several 3's with dodgy mute switches. Unless you can see physical damage I'd expect you to be able to get it replaced.

If it's under warranty and you haven't tripped any water sensors, they will replace it.

You can try, no harm in doing that

They should. Book an appointment and have them take a look at it.

Don't mention the dropping it part

I have a 3G with the same issue, think it might work if I try getting replacement even though I'm out of warranty?

If you calmly explain that the mute switch no longer functions, they very well might replace it.
