I had my phone in my purse for a few hours at work and when i took it out again they were no longer working. I didn't do anything (use, touch, drop, etc.) to the phone in that time period and now my phone gets extremely hot when I'm using it or when I'm charging it and the gyroscope/accelerometer no longer work. If i try to use the compass app it just goes on the fritz and the iPhone's parallax effect makes everything shake and swirl around like crazy.
I have a small scratch/chip in the corner of my phone and the Verizon store representative said he wasn't sure if it would be considered damaged or not. The iPhone is outside of the 1 year warranty. I'm not sure what to do but i can barely use the phone now
