Help, i unlocked my iphone 3gs and now have restored now won't work

Help, I have unlocked my iphone 3gs to get 3rd party apps. Problem is I couldn't ever get it to go on silent. so I restored it back to not be unlocked and its stuck at the apple screen, will not turn on. I did a hard reset, pushing both the buttons on the iphone at the same time, the one on the top and on the bottom of the screen at the same time and it restarts, but then is stuck at the apple screen. What should I do? It's still under warranty. Will apple replace it since I was trying to restore it?

It's still under warranty. Will apple replace it since I was trying to restore it?
No it is not. Jailbreaking, unauthorized unlocking, etc. void the warranty (and can be detected by Apple). Also, support for hacked iPhones is prohibited here by the forum Terms of Use.

    If you are receiving a messages that says the maximum number of free iCloud accounts has already been created I'm afraid you won't be able to create a new account on your phone. 
    Each device can only create a certain number of iCloud accounts.  Once they have been created you cannot create a new one.  You also can't delete one of the accounts to allow you to create a new one.  All you can do is either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account to use on another iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

    Sorry, downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple, thus there is no official way to do so. Your phone was re-locked to the carrier it was originally locked to because you hacked it to unlock it. Apple's servers detected such & re-locked your phone. You need to contact the carrier your phone is locked to if you want to get it officially unlocked.

  • Just synced my iphone 3GS and now half of my apps won't open on my iphone. I tried the reboot but it didn't help. This is version 4.3.2 . Any ideas?

    Just synced my iphone 3GS and now many of my app's won't open on my phone.  This was with version 4.3.2. I tried a reboot on my iphone but that didn't help. Any ideas?

    this happened to me with my iPhone 4. I researched the problem and found this :
    "The reason this happens is because every time a downloaded app is opened it checks for your itunes password for validation that you are authorized to open that app (as it may contain personal info). From time to time the iphone 'forgets' your itunes password. You can fix the missing password by syncing the iphone with itunes or downloading an app from the app store and entering your password that way.”
    And to fix it, all I did was download a new app, or delete a current one, I used Facebook, and re-download it.
    Hope this helps

  • I have an iphone 3GS and I have upgraded it to iOS 6. Since then it doesn't work properly. Every now and then it has been restarting by itself and requiring restore. When I connect it to itunes it restarts again and again. Is there any solution?

    I have an iphone 3GS and I have upgraded it to iOS 6. Since then it doesn't work properly.
    Every now and then it has been restarting by itself and requiring restore. When I connect it to itunes it restarts again and again without letting me take any action. Is there any solution?

    Hey, There are afew things you can try.
    - Simply turn your phone off and back on again
    - Hold down your home button and your lock button and let goes as soon as the screen goes black (Phone will power down) - Then turn on your phone and hey presto!
    - Back up your iPhone to your PC, then restore it..
    this ones last cause I think you may have tried it already..
    - Close all open applications
    Hope this helps!

  • I have an Iphone 3GS and the app for Facebook doesn't work anymore...

    I have an Iphone 3GS and the app for Facebook doesn't work anymore since last update made yesterday.
    How can I restore it without the last update?
    Or, what can I do to have the Facebook back again on my mobile?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Ricoco,
    I too had exact issue what you were experienced, then I went to Apple autorised service center and submitted my earpods, their it worked with all versions of Apple iphones, but it didn't worked on my 3gs. The service technician suggested for OS  upgrade.Then I came home and I took the backup and upgraded 5.1 to 6.1 as he suggested, also it didn't worked. I was totally frustated and suddenly I got an idea!. What a funny thing here is, a safety pin resolved my issue, I took out all dust which was there in the jack hole. Then I check my earpods, it was amazing you know..MY EAR PODS WORKED!.
    If you still have this issue, I hope this will help you.

    I just tried to download IO5 to my 3GS and now it wont work, boots up in Japanese or maybe arabic and wont let me do anything, was working OK before the download, Itunes says "no sim card present"

    Keep trying. The update server is overloaded. You will eventually get through and your update will continue where it left off.
    I got the error message about 12 times before it finally connected and continued.

  • Upgraded to iOS4 on my iPhone 3GS and now iPhoto images are blurred...WHY?

    I've just upgraded to iOS4 on my iPhone 3GS and the iPhoto images are blurred? WHY?
    They were fine before...so now my screen saver is blurred and looks low res...all my images are crap quality...what is going on Apple?
    Checked the photos on my laptop and they are crystal clear...anyone else have the same problem?
    I wish I'd stuck with the old software now.

    I also had the same issue. I upgraded my iPhone 3Gs to the new software about a week ago. Yesterday the photos on my phone were blurry. I "googled" the issue and ended up here. Synced my phone and now all is well! thanks for the help.

  • Ive just replaced lcd on the iphone 3gs and now the screen is just blank

    i have just replaced my broken lcd on my iphone 3gs and when i switched it back on it just lights up blank any ideas please

    The replacement you used is bad, you hooked something up wrong, or you broke something when you did it.
    Find a competent repair shop or sell it for parts and buy a new phone.
