Hi All,

I Have IPhone 4 for 2 Months Now IOS 4.3.4

But From about 15 Day While I Was Using My IPhone (Maps)

I Noticed That the Phone is getting very hot and the Battery (80% to 50% in less than 10 minutes) is getting low very Quick

So that i switched it off for 1 hour and Turned it on again but the Battery discharge very Quick (less than 1 hour)

So that when i went to home i plugged the charger and switched it off for 4hours

When i wake up i turned it on and tried to use the compass but what is that?? (The Compass Got Crazy it rotates everywhere without stopping and the phone was getting hot then it Frozen at 27 N (all that is less than 30 sec.))

So that closed it then opened it again but it’s frozen at 27 N so that i thought that is SW Issue

So that i Downloaded IOS 4.3.4 then upgraded it from 4.3.3 when it completed i opened the Compass but at this time it were 0 N Frozen not 27 N

I Putted the Phone in DFU Mode and restored the IOS 4.3.4 but it does fixed the Problem

At the next day i tried to use it the compass again but no luck at all

The Big Surprise When i Tried to use Safari or use IPod or Photos (There is no Rotation) what the!!!!!!

Battery is discharging now very Quick

When I Uses Maps it Gets Very Hot between Apple Logo and the Camera in the Back!

I tried any game uses the Accelerometer Sensor but it opens but don't work Like (R.Racing GTI - AoD - ...) and the Battery is getting low very Quick less than one day

So that i searched the internet for this problem and i found many things

1- Use calibration Programs like [iHandy Level] Frozen at the center (No Luck)

2- Use Magnet (No Luck)

3- SW Issue (no Luck)

4- Patriot Orientation Locked or Unlocked (No Luck)

5- Return it To Apple Support and they change it for you (HOW?)

So Please Help Me I’m crying now over it.

P.S: I Lives in Egypt and I can’t contact IPhone Support over internet.
What I Can Do?

P.S: No one in Apple Support Answered me for more than 3 days now from Jul 24, 2011

Thanks In Advance

Well if you still have warranty just take it in, you can make an appointment online i believe.

I only know that the orientation can be fixed by turning it off and on, that might actually be able to fix some of these other little tweaks. Although I am not too sure about the battery. But if it is getting very hot, it is using up a lot of processing power, so if you turn it off like completely and have it start up from scratch it might stop the process it may be stuck on.
 
Thanks accessoriesguy

and i can't make appointment online case im from Egypt

Can i just return it to any apple store at any country or just from the country i bought it from ?
