    Downloaded iOS6 on my iphone 3gs and it fully downloaded but when it rebooted it kept powering on giving the Apple logo, but then it flickers and turns off

    I've used the 'self' updater (not used iTunes) and it does pretty much what you describe.

    Contact the carrier to which it was locked before it was hacked, and enquire if they will unlock it.  Not all carriers offer unlocking and those that do usually have requirements such as that you are a current or former customer in good standing.

  • Downloaded iOS 6 onto my iPhone 3GS. Can't download new apps but I can update apps??

    Since updating my iPhone 3GS to iOS 6 yesterday I haven't been able to download new apps. I can still update apps, but when I try downloading a new app I put in my password when prompted, it says installing for a few moments and the loading bar appears. But it never starts to load (no blue in the install bar) and then just stops and the app is displaying as if I've never installed it. Anyone else had this and does anykne know how to fix it?
    Thanks

    If you're using an iPhone 4 as it says in your profile, you're not supposed to have Siri after updating to iOS6

  • I have downloaded ios 6 but my iphone 3gs is doing nothing. IT WILL not activate help!

    my iphone 3gs will not activate following an ios 6 update? Itunes will not recognise it either, any ideas??

    Hook your iPad into your computer and open iTunes. GIve it a couple of minutes to get going, then click on the name of your device, then the main summary page. In the middle you'll see a software update button/area. Click on check on updates and update and follow the prompts.
    it SHOULDN"T redownload but if you've already got it should just install.
    I'd suggest that you first do a complete sync before you update, that way you have a good backup to restore your device from if the upgrade doesn't go perfect.

  • I just downloaded iOS 6 onto my iphone 3gs.

    I no longer use this phone as an actual phone but instead as an iPod. Every time I connect to wifi I get this popup that asks me to login and loads a page that says page not found in a safari pop up.

    Same problem here but I found a workaround.
    Go ahead and tap on the network that you want to join
    As soon as the checkmark appears next to the network jame that you are joining hit the home button.
    This worked for me and I am now connected to my AirPort Express.  It would seem this is a serious bug in IOS 6 that needs to be worked out fairly quickly.  It seems like ever since OSX Lion that Apple has been turning into Microsoft with their super buggy releases of operating systems.  This is why I am still on Snow Leopard.
    Anyway... Give it a shot.  Worked for me.

    You mean for an iPhone 4S?  You can't.  Yo can only update an iPhone 4S to iOS 8.1.3.
    The only iPhone that can currently download iOS 6 is an iPhone 3GS.

    Can I download iOS 6 onto my iPhone 4? I'm trying but I keep getting an error msg.

    OK, but if you do want to try iTunes, you just hook up your iPhone to your PC or Mac like you were going to sync it, and it will tell you that there is an update for your phone when you initiate the sync.
    Otherwise, best of luck! Hope it all gets sorted out quickly!!!

    This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting.  Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
    Change DNS Servers
    Settings -> Wi-Fi
    Click the blue arrow on your connected network
    Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Try again
    If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
    On your Mac
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
    You can use OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    or
    You can Google Public DNS if you want
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers
