iphone 6 error 53 and APPLE WONT REPLACE OR FIX!

I purchased my Apple iphone 6 on januray 10th, 2015 in Dubai. i dropped my iphone in february and the top of the iphone(above the screen) got a minute crack. there wasn't any replacement option in India so i had no other option but to use that iphone and when i tried to update the iphone to iOS9.1 in November 2015 i got an error 53. Apple in india said they cant fix it here and i'll have to send it to dubai. I had to wait a month to send it to dubai and finally did. My warranty expires on january 11th, 2016. When given for service in dubai now, they're telling i'll have to pay 1240 aed to get a new phone because my warranty is void if the iphone is broken. BUT the error hasn't occured because i broke my phone(it was working fine for 10 months). I lost all my data because of this error. i don't want apple to fix my screen or anything! i just want them to fix the error 53 so that i can use my phone but they won't! and i haven't given the iphone for service outside yet! so it's still under warranty. please help me. i can't shed all my earning trying to fix a phone where the fault is on apple. PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU.

iPhone 6, iOS 9.0.2

It wasn't damaged AS IT STILL WORKED!!! It still worked after he dropped it. It didn't work AFTER the upgrade. Big difference.

Perhaps you would be better off trashing your iPhone and buying a competitive product that meets your satisfaction.

Then you should replace it for him.

You seem to be an iSheep. The Guy isint asking for screen replacement , he wants the phone unbricked which was caused by iOS update.

You have a car that works fine and if you take your car in for a computer upgrade (I assume you know that cars have an ECM) and the car doesn't work after that, then the manufacturer is on the hook to fix it. The manufacturer can't tell the driver that it doesn't have to fix the car because it has a cracked headlight. Or do you disagree with that too?

Why should I replace it? I didn't stop it from working, Apple did with its upgrade. Apple's upgrade stopped it from working so Apple should have to fix it.

Have you actually tried, or are you assuming?

Simple. You're not pleased with the product and the support for the product. Buy one that meets your requirements.

There is a reason why Apple just recorded their first Quarterly sales decline since 2003.

Sure there is. What in the world does that have to do with this thread?

The fact that they can deliberatly ruin someone's phone and not be held liable
