Apple iPhone 3GS 8GB Blank Screen While Updating to IOS4.3.3

Hi have iPhone 3GS 8GB. This phone I got as replacement from Apple for my Previous iPhone which got stuck in recovery. This replacement phone was working on IOS 4.2.1.
A few days back Apple has released IOS 4.3.3 and while updating my iPhone via iTunes, there was some error message.
I tried it again and different different errors keep on coming. Now my Phone is totally blank. When I plug the Phone in Computer I can listen to USB Plugin sound coming from computer but nothing is coming on screen. It seems iPhone is stuck in DFU Mode.
Also when I plug the phone in computer iTunes POPs up and says phone is in recovery mode and when I restore the phone error 1600 keeps on coming.
I am 100% sure there is some software issues with the phone as computer responds when I plug in and Plug out the phone (USB Sound). Can any wise person on this Group help me out with the same.
Regards,
Anshuman

are you able to see the apps on the home screen? If so, it's most likely an issue with your carrier
This is also an issue that can appear on devices that have been modified in an unauthorized manner (not judging, just saying)

    Hello, noyz23il.
    I would agree that this is a unique issue.  I have attached an article that goes over basic troubleshooting that may help.  In this article, see the sections referring to display, camera and blank white screen.  If this does not resolve the issue, please see the last section regarding "issue not resolved".

  • Iphone 3gs in restore mode since update to ios4 - error -29

    I updated my non-jailbroken iphone 3gs today to the ios 4 system (or tried to), but the phone is stuck in restore mode and won't respond. The computer gives error code -29 as the reason, which is a miscellaneous hardware problem? Ideas?

    I'm having the same issue, usually resulting with error 29, but occasionally a different #. I had the same trouble with my last update and I fixed it using some goofy hack someone linked to: http://www.ihackintosh.com/2009/07/irecovery-iphone-recovery-mode-loop-restart/
    Just tried it with no luck.

  • My iPhone 3GS has blank screen, won't turn on

    I updated to iTunes 9.2 (on Vista); went fine. Backed up iPhone; went fine. Then, attempted to update to new phone OS. It downloaded the whole OS then started the install. In the middle, iTunes displayed an unknown error message telling me it couldn't finish the Update. Now, my phone is black and will not go into DFU mode. I have restarted my computer, done a repair install of iTunes 9.2. Tried all the different USB ports on my computer. Nothing works. Is there any solution?

    Also tried completely removing everything Apple (posted from on a similar thread): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Still no DFU.

  • IPhone 3GS shows blank screen after OS5 installation

    Hello,
    After the installation of the new OS 5 on my 3 GS everything seems to work fine. I am just facing the following problem:
    - When I turn on the iPhone i often see a blank, white screen. The touchpad is not responding. I have to press the ON/OFF button a few times to get the "normal" unlock screen.
    - The same behaviour happend when I received a call. I just saw a white sceen and was not able to awnser the call (no button available).
    Has anyone had the same problem?
    Regards,
    Tobias

  • Iphone 3gs not working properly after update to ios4

    I updated my 3gs to ios4 and have had nothing but problems since doing so. My battery is draining faster than ever, I have had problems syncing with the exchange server at work which has always worked perfectly before, my reception is horrible in places where it used to be just fine, such as my house. I am constantly dropping calls in my house where I know my phone worked just fine before. I know Apple says their formula for figuring signal strength is inaccurate and has been for years, but that really has nothing do to with the fact that my phone used to work at my house and now it doesn't. Regardless of what the signal shows, I know I used to talk on my phone at my house and now it's a real pain in the a** to try to get through a conversation. Also many of my apps such as weather and stock apps will not update sometimes for a couple of days, no matter where I am or what the signal strength says. Has anyone else had a combination of these problems and if so any luck fixing any of them?
    Thanks

    Apple release an article after iOS4 came out about downloading a new exchange file
    Seen here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398
    I would start by doing this fix and see if that helps out any of your issues.
    I would suggest to sync everything and then back it up, restore your device to 'new', download this new exchange fix and then either restore your phone or better, re-sync you phone.
    Good Luck

  • IPhone 3gs volume very low after updating to iOS4.2.1???

    After updating to ios 4.2.1 my iphone volume has lowered to much extent.
    Now it is hardly audible. And please don't tell me to check volume limit because it is already off.
    Keyboard clicks are hardly audible.
    iPod volume has also lowered.
    Volume of every application is too silent.
    SO please help me out of this.

    I had the same problem and tried to change to a different languge and then back to english and as soon as I did that my volume limit is back to its highest level as before so it worked for me. Worth trying guys! Hope it works for you cos I know it didn't work for some.

  • HT1414 I have lost IMEI number and WIFI while downgrading on Iphone 3GS 8GB.Would I get back IMEI while resotring?

    I have lost IMEI number and WIFI while downgrading on Iphone 3GS 8GB.Would I get back IMEI while resotring?

    Since you attempted to downgrade the phone, you have no warranty and your ability to get support here or from Apple has been forfeited.
    You're on your own.  A Missing IMEI is generally unfixable.  Buy a new phone.

    I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    Tim is correct.
    But, first step with 3GS white screen and most iPhone problems is Reset, hold both home and power buttons until iPhone begins to restart itself, usually about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still white screen.
    Next step would be Restore the iPhone Firmware with iTunes on your computer. If still white screen.
    Next step would be to follow Tim's advice, if you had not already.
