phazey Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hi, My iPhone looks a little worse for wear, and it's battery lasts about 3 hours on a good day. Also my wifi has become increasingly unreliable. Can i go to a place in MBK for the following - has anyone else done this? 1) Replace cover 2) Replace better 3) Dont know if it's possible to replace the wifi chip...but who knows.. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDNinKS Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Have no idea on the repairs, but just wondering how old your IPhone is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDNinKS Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 So, about 20 months then? I guess most people can expect to need to have their batteries replaced at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacefruit Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Judging by the piles of spares I saw in a couple of stalls at the back of the MBK phone floor, i would say that there are plenty of spares and people to install them. I also noticed an Iphone battery replacement kit. It was a battery and two (?) awkward shape plastic arms. As mine is still OK I haven't any first hand experience of quality.

Cheers One of the main reasons I sold my Iphone. In the States a batter replacement will go around 79.95 if I remember correctly. Be careful where u get it done in MBK. A fake battery won't do you any good. Don't they have Apple stores in Thailand that will also do Iphones now? I would personally spend a little more than taking a risk.
