    iPhone 4 is about to be killed......

    I'm literally about to murder my iPhone 4. The "lock" button and my "menu" button have to be pressed 20+ times (the longest has been 87 times) before it will do one. simple. command. Anyone else experience this problem?

    I wanted to spend the $200 to upgrade to the iPhone 5 on a snake instead...but it looks like that money will go towards a new phone this weekend.

    Re: iPhone 4 is about to be killed......

    Just got the i5 still a pos hipster phone. Go buy a galaxy s4 1080p resolution, more free apps. Man do I regret not getting it. I use to work for apple so I'm big into iTunes only reason why I have stayed with these phones.

    Mine only glitch out occasionally, and it usually fixes itself after a triple-tap of the home button. I'm kinda impressed, mine has seen some better days. The entire back panel is shattered. The software all works great, mostly.

    Have you tried turning it off and back on again? :3

    My menu button stopped working on my four, and the antenna went out as well. The apple store couldn't do anything cause I was conveniently out of warranty.

    That's when I made the switch to android.

    The problem is that all I know is apple. All I have music related is iTunes. I just need a new phone period.

    I just had a friend who's phone did the same thing. She took it to the apple store and they said that it was a factory issue and so it wouldn't need a warranty. They replaced the phone for free. I'll take that or I may upgrade. This phone is nearly 3 years old...it needs to be replaced anyway.

    Do you have your itunes backed up? You can still get all your music on an android phone. And I personally like android WAY better.

    Yeah, I'll be honest, my Nexus runs REALLY smoothly on Android Jellybean, and I like the customization options that Apple doesn't have with their products. As faithful as my iPhone's been, come upgrade-time I'll be moving to a Galaxy.

    iTunes is getting backed up tomorrow. I've got an appointment for Sunday at the Apple store. I always back my stuff up before I go since I've lost things before.

    I just have never had android. I went from a flip phone to the iPhone so that's all I've really known. I'm finding it very hard to leave my comfort zone and branch out to android.
