Do white iPhone 3GS have higher chance of developing cracks?

Compared with the black iPhone 3GS, do the white ones still have a higher chance of developing cracks?

my last i phone was the 3G. It was dropped and the glass shattered. This time with the purchase of the 3GS, (I bought white) along with the incase protection case in black. Beautiful contrast. You have to be nuts not to buy a protective case. Dont believe those Youtube videos claiming the Iphone is indestructible. Its not.

Oh there was a thread already about this.

I have tested the 3GS in 3 different Apple stores, and all exhibit the high pitch noise during and about 6 seconds after the video/memo has stopped playing. What I found very odd that all the iPhone 3GS on display except for one, where set on silent and everything else iPod touches wasn't and 2nd gen iPhones as well. (touching my chin hmmmmmm)

Why is there no white iPhone 3GS?

Apple has a white iPhone 4S, they even kept the white iPhone 4 around. This begs the question of why doesn't Apple reserect the white iPhone 3GS? Adding a white iPhone 3GS could add additional profits for Apple.

We're users here Matrix, and we would have absoultely no idea why Apple would or wouldn't resurrect the withe iPhone 3GS. Speculation is prohibited by the Terms of Use of this forum.

White iPhone 3GS or Black iPhone 4?

I'm trying to decide if I should wait for a white iPhone 4, get a white 3GS or black iPhone 4.
I'm with Sprint right now. My contract is up on the 1st of July. I need to switch to either AT&T or Verizon. Sprint has admitted that their coverage is very bad in my area. I find frequently that I have no signal. I want to make the switch now, b/c I'm planning my wedding, moving, going back to school, looking for a job in the new city I'm moving to, etc. etc. etc. I need to be with a carrier that actually has good coverage in my area.
Waiting for a white iPhone might not be an option for me.
Do you guys think I should get a white iPhone 3GS or a black iPhone 4? Are all of the features of OS4 available on the 16 GB 3GS? I just did the update on my 8 GB iPod Touch only to find that home screen backgrounds and multitasking are not supported on it.

I should probably mention this:
I'm thinking about purchasing a white refurbished 16 GB iPhone 3GS. I don't really want to spend more than $99 on a phone. It's not pragmatic for me to spend any more than that.
So the question remains, will a white refurbished 16 GB iPhone 3GS support all of the features of OS4? If not, then I'll see what I can do to afford a black 16 GB iPhone 4.

My phone is an iPhone 3gs too, and last night actually it said the same thing, "No Sim Card" and my friend and I started panicking but I did what I call a "Forced Reboot" where you hold down the Home and Power buttons until you see the apple logo. DO NOT RELEASE UNTIL THEN otherwise you are just shutting it down. So, I did that and it worked again....

Hi jazznola9,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
There are several steps you can take when troubleshooting Wi-Fi connectivity on an iPhone and it sounds like you have already done a few of them already. In your situation I would recommend reading over and working through the steps listed in the attached article.

Will a replaced iPhone 3GS have the new firmware 3.1.3?

Will a replaced (reconditioned) iPhone 3GS have the new firmware 3.1.3 yet?
Thinking of taking mine to an apple store in the UK and it will more than likely just be replaced.
Any had one replaced in the last few days or had experience of how quickly they update thier stock handsets?
Many thanks

I would expect they will not. I got a replacement 3G back in mid October which still had 3.1 or 3.1.1 on it. First time I sync'd it with iTunes in updated to 3.1.2. Phones with 3.1.3 will probably cycle into inventory over time, but I am pretty sure they don't update existing stock.

IPhone 3GS - Have been trying to download OS 4 for a week !!!

I'm using iTunes 9.2 which appears to be working fine ... already reinstalled it twice in case this was the issue ... I plug my iPhone 3GS in and request update to OS 4 ... update runs downloading 378 MB over a 29 minute period ... iPhone still attached ... timer finishes with 377.9 MB showing as being downloaded ... hangs for 30 seconds then informs me that connection has timed out and for me to start again ... I have been trying at least 6 times a day since last Sunday with no luck ... can somebody please advise what's going off ... already tried another PC and contacted my IP provider ?????

You may want to wait until Apple fixes some bugs. My 3GS no longer syncs with MobileMe since installing iOS4. I spent a total of 7 hours over the past two days following all of the suggestions posted on the troubleshooting sites...to no avail. I even did a restore in iTunes and spent over two hours with a chat agent who also had no fix. He is "escalating" my issue to higher powers. I love the other features...folders, the ability to change backgrounds...but I have to be able to sync my calendars.

HT4623 upgraded my iphone 3GS to higher iOS but unfortunately my phone has reset factory setting and now i can't use it anymore... tried to connect to iTunes but it would only say: WE ARE SORRY, WE ARE NOT ABLE TO CONTINUE YOUR ACTIVATION THIS TIME...

tried to upgrade my iPhone 3GS to a higher iOS but unfortunately it had reset factory setting... now i can't use my phone anymore... tried also to connect to iTunes as instructed but only appears: WE ARE SORRY, WE CANNOT CONTINUE YOUR ACTIVATION AT THIS TIME... WHAT SHOULD I DO? THANK YOU...

No, you do not need to nor should you jailbreak your iPhone.
If you jailbreak your iPhone, you void any remaining warranty and lose
all support from Apple including this forum.

1] activation server is actually unavailable. Happens very rarely and
does not last long on those rare occasions. Solution is to try again.

to the activation server. Solution is to temporarily turn off your firewall/internet
security software/antivirun until you have activated your iPhone.
3] your iPhone has been jailbroken or otherwise hacked/modified.
4] the computer you are using to activate the iPhone has been used to
jailbreak an iOS device.

Will the iphone 3gs have imessage?

Was just wondering if anyone knew if the Iphone 3GS will have imessage with the new IOS 5 update? and also what else will the 3GS get with the update as i know it won't have everything

My daughters use our old 3GS iPhones as glorified iPod Touches. They have both found in good Wi-Fi environments they can use Find a Friend App to iMessage to their friends that have iPhones or iPod Touches that have upgraded to iOS5. Once they have started iMessage, then they can continue conversations using the Text App, all using the unlimited character text of iMessage. Can NOT iMessage to a non-iPhone as they don't have SIM cards with phone numbers in these iPhone 3GS's.

White iPhone 3GS/4G

I just upgraded to a white 3GS last month. I was wondering if it's possible to get a white iPhone 4 at christmas if it's out by then? Or will I not be eligible for an upgrade? I know that sometimes they let you pay a $18 upgrade fee to upgrade your iPhone if you're not eligible for an upgrade through AT&T.

If you just bought an iPhone, you will not be eligible for a subsidized upgrade until late next year. You would be able to buy one if it comes out for the full unsubsidized price of $599/$699.
The $18 is not a special upgrade fee to get a new iPhone. It's the price ATT charges to change your service whenever you buy any phone.

How to buy a 16 gb white iPhone 3gs from U.S to Brazil?

Hi! i`m from brazil and i want an iphone so much, but here is so expensive!it's almost $950, there is any way I can buy from U.S with the same price of the apple store?
Does anyone understand me?
It`s very difficult to do this??
Please! I need help okay? if anyone knows how to do this stuff! contact me!
Sorry if my english

As already provided, the iPhone is sold in the U.S. as carrier locked with AT&T only.
The full retail sales price for the iPhone 3GS in the U.S. is $599 for the 16GB, and $699 for the 32GB plus applicable sales tax depending on the city where the iPhone is purchased. The iPhone sold at the full retail sales price in the U.S. does not require a contract with AT&T, but the iPhone remains carrier locked with AT&T.
AT&T's fully subsidized or discounted price for the 3GS in the U.S. is $199 for the 16GB, and $299 for the 32GB plus applicable sales tax. This price requires a two year contract with AT&T.
In addition, support and warranty coverage by Apple is honored in the country where the iPhone was sold officially by Apple only.

Should my 16GB White iPhone 3GS Get hot when using it?

Got a White 16GB 3GS and been using it for a while, and it works great, no worries with it at all.
But recently when i've been using it, its been getting really hot, and you can't really touch the back. Like this morning, i turned it on, snyc'd it with my Mac, then watched 15min of an Apple Keynote Podcast, and check twitter, and now its just sat playing music. And the back it really hot. And i've been using it for like 30min...
Is this normal? What can i do about it?
Simon

Are you charging it while watching the podcast.
Yes, they can get hot. But not hot to the point where you can not touch it. Of course, the other thing is your sensetivity to heat. Everyone has different tolerences. So it just kinda depends on what you think is too 'hot".
playing just music shouldnt get hot. But multi-tasking could make it get hot.
