It looks like they got it with 6.1.2 then upgraded to 6.1.3 and then regretted their decision when they decided they wanted to jailbreak. I read that post the same way you did the first time I looked at it.

Oh I see, lol I'm half awake :(

Yes you read it correct I started with 6.1.2 then updated to 6.1.3. Felt restricted and missed some of the paid jb apps so I got an exchange. My point was to answer the OP that even though got a brand new i5 it only had 6.0.2.

They had a jailbroken i5 running 6.1.2 and for some unknown reason upgraded to 6.1.3 and lost the jb. Since they missed the jb, the only way to get back to a version of iOS they could jb was to lie to Apple to get a replacement phone running an older version of iOS.
 
So I just got off the phone with Apple and they are very adamant that its a software issue. They will replace it, but the more I think about it, it does seem like it started around the last time I upgraded the software. I was just assuming hardware since it seems like the connection between the phone and the lightning cable. I am not wondering if there is anything I can try without restoring it.

Still on the fence, if I go to the Apple Store it will save me $29 that they charge you if they ship it to you. It would suck to get stuck on 6.1.3 though.

Here's my recommendation to you. Whichever way you want to go, go now. The longer you take to make decision the higher the chances of you getting 6.1.3.
 
Dude, you have been pondering this since March 19th and you were stuck at work back then as well. LOL! Link to your previous post and my reply: https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/17020794/

LMAO:D
Give him another month or 2 to ponder some more:D

I work long hours, give me a break:D. That was the first day 6.1.3 was released, then the debate was if I could beat the window of still signing 6.1.2, since I missed that I decided to hold off. But now I'm sick of it not charging and decided I'd try o get it replaced.

But, I'm literally standing by the iPods at the Apple Store waiting for a genius as I type this. Phone has been restored to 6.1.3, so no going back now:eek:.

On the fence. My lower volume button is working intermittently. Want to schedule an appointment and have it replaced but dreading the fact that it will come with 6.1.3 installed.
