Dropped iPhone 3GS... :( pls help

hi, i dropped my iPhone 3GS and since it is showing 'no service'. i have tried everything switching it on/off, putting it on airplane mode, taking sim out and putting it back but nothing seems to work. please help what should i do?

I believe after what you've tried, it's time for you to take it in to an Apple Service Center to have them test it, to see what was damaged by the fall.
Hope this helps

Then you'll have to use another iOS device or Mac running OS X Lion or higher to create a new account for you to use on your phone. If you don't have one, perhaps a friend would allow you to create and account on their device (note: this will use one of their three maximum accounts). To do this, they would need to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which will delete the account from their device but not from iCloud), then allow you to sign back in with your ID to create the new account. Then tap Delete Account to delete the new account from their device, and finally, sign back in with their iCloud ID to restore their iCloud account to their device. Then you can sign in with your ID on your phone in Settings>iCloud and use the new account.

Dropped iPhone 3Gs in road/rain

HELP!!! I dropped my iphone 3Gs in the road and it was run over by several cars in heavy rain from the looks of it. Got it back in 1 piece, but in road/rain for over an hour. Screen pulverized, but basically still in 1 pc. Shattered so that suction cup won't stick to remove though. Going to ATT store in the morning, but any advice on steps I can take tonight to hopefully be able to salvage contacts, etc. is much appreciated.
Thanks

All your data should be backed up. If you cannot use the phone and there is no backup, you have nowhere from which to recover your data.

Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

HT201210 I have got error number 11 on itunes when trying to restore my iphone 3gs, please help.

Please help, I am trying to restore my iphone 3gs, but i keep getting errors like 11 which is not listed in this site and i alos get error 1 and -1. please help.

Did you manage to fix the issue?
I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update!

I have a problem with iphone 3gs please help

ok my iphine was jail broken and i restored it as it was and now its stuck on recovery mode and i cant restore it everytime i do it gives me the message with 1015 i thikn please help me if u have a solution.

If I understand correctly, you are in Romania and the phone was bought from Sweden. In order to unlock that device, you have to have the carrier in Sweden unlock it. If your phone just won't power on, then wjosten has provided the steps needed to try and power it on. Otherwise, if you want the phone "unlocked" or if it has been "jailbroken" or an unauthorized version of software has been put on the iphone, nobody can help you here.

As kb1951 states, unless this phone was purchased directly from Apple, it is not officially unlocked. In the US, only Apple sells officially unlocked iPhones. The message you got generally means your phone was hacked to unlock it...jailbroken...Apple's servers have detected such & are preventing your phone from activating...there's nothing wrong with the activation servers.
You'll need a sim card from the carrier your phone is locked to in order to activate it. If you don't know what carrier, you'll have to call AppleCare in the US to determine this info. Be aware, US carriers will not authorize official unlocking unless you are a customer that used the phone on their network. Thus, there is most likely no way for you to get this phone officially unlocked.
Good luck.

Iphone 3gs dead- help!!! see more details below.

I have a iphone 3gs- I had the old operating system so I tried to upgrade it.My phone is unlocked and jail broken.
I tried to plug it in itunes and see if i can restore it. The computer/itunes did pick up that an iphone was connected and said I need to restore it. When the restore finished, it said ''the software for the iphone was corrupted during download'' I tried the restore couple of times, no luck.
I tried to charge it from a wall charger and from the computer as well. Still no luck.
I tried the hard reboot as well- hold the on/off button and the centre button together for a min...no luck here again!
Any ideas? Thanking you in advance!

When I bought the phone from someone, I got it that way- didnt know all this technicalities of jail breaking then. Now I know!!!
Hence, i'm trying to restore the phone, and bring it back to factory settings so that it becomes un-jail broken!
Thanks for replying! will follow your link ans see what happens!

Iphone 3GS Battery help

Bought my first iphone, a used 16gb 3GS
I know iPhone's battery's are poor *but how do I know if mine needs replacing*? It should last me a whole day at least right (on average use, inc a few apps and an hour of music etc).
I basically want to know if my battery is the norm compared to other iphone 3GS's, or whether mine is poor and needs replacing.
Thanks

Update of the firmware?
Thanks
That is NOT what you said previously. You said: "I try to close all the app, close all tab of safari, roaming is off for the data" We are NOT psychic. Your original statement does NOT indicate that you have 3g off.
If the phone is unable to lock onto the preferred provider you set in manual mode, it will be constantly searching for the carrier signal. This will drastically reduce battery life. If you are out of range of the carrier you want to use, put the phone in airplane mode.

TS3694 its showing error 2003 when i restore my iphone 3g.pls help me to get out of this problem

Its showing error 2003 when i m restoring my iphone3g.pls help me to get out of this problem.as soon as possible

Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Dropped iphone 3gs

so i fell down the stairs and landed on my iphone 3gs, two days ago.
in the top left corner it says SEARCHING... (as in searching for service)
and it is saying connect to itunes to restore. itunes has it under devices as kats iphone and iphone.
i do not exactly know what to do. it also says
IMEI: unknown and
ICCID: unknown
and i slide the slider and it takes me to the emergency call screen only. and behind that is my background of my puppy, so i dont really know if its a hardware problem or if its just stuck. and every five minutes or so it will restart its self and keep going to that connect to itunes screen.
is there anyway i can fix this myself or do i have to get a whole new phone..
thanks
alyx kat

I can't get on the phone at all. It just shows the iTunes symbol and is instructing me to plug it into it! Wen I plug it into iTunes it does nothing and wen I reboot the phone the same screen appears. What I'd DFU mode?

HT201328 iphone 3GS Unlock - HELP pls

I did call AT&T for unlocking my iphone. But the problem is that I DO NOT have the receipt anymore. It's an out-of-contract iphone, it's been 2 years I have it. Can't it be unlocked without the original receipt? There has to be some way out?

You do not need the receipt.
https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
AT&T will unlock an iPhone under the following circumstances:
The person requesting the unlock is:
A current AT&T customer, or
A former AT&T customer who can provide the phone number or account number for the account.
The iPhone was designed for use on the AT&T network.
All contract obligations, including any term commitment, associated with the device to be unlocked have been fully satisfied.
The iPhone has not been reported lost or stolen.
