If you have official receipts to prove you bought the celphone in that particular shop, you can file a complaint at the Department of Trade and Industry. Commercial establishments in the Philippines are no longer allowed to impose a "No Return, No Exchange" policy. I forgot the specific law, but a Consumer Act was enacted into law during the Ramos Administration. Any seller in the Philippines is required by law to honor its warranty and/or to replace/refund any defective product that they have sold to a consumer.
