Slider not working - iPhone 3G

Heya, Brand new iPhone, straight out of the box and activated, battery power is high, tried the hard reset, but still the slider will not budge. Any ideas?

If i reply to my own thread does that make it somewhat more noticeable? I certainly hope so.

Try the restore in itunes, if that doen't work, take it back. Let me know if that works.

Okay, i started the restoring process and it's now downloading the update again. It says it'll take 10 minutes so i'll see what happens after that.

Hmmm....it seems i need to change the title of this thread. After the software reset, it brought me to the main menu (unlocked) after one minute of trying to hit buttons, i have come to the conclusion that the whole touch screen must be wacked. Unless theres some other brilliant mind out there somewhere in the forums who has another idea...?

If you did a restore through iTunes, and the touch screen is still not responsive, it is more than likely a hardware issue. Take it back to your local Apple store and they'll gladly replace it if your within 14 days of purchase. If you're not, they'll repair it. Good luck.
