HT4061 my iphone 3GS is dead, cannot come on.

My iphone 3GS is completely dead.  I have charged it overnight, gtried different chargers, I tried holding switch and command button together, connected to PC, still no go.  any ideas ?

Sounds like the battery has failed and needs to be replaced, or there is another hardware problem.

    Glenn,
    I tried upgrading to leopard, even bought the software and brought it home but it wouldn't let me. So i went back to apple, gave them the specifications of the machine and been told my machine is simply too old for leopard. This is incredible to me because it really isn't THAT old (i think just a little over 6 years maybe) and yet i'm left out on the curb when it comes to using newer apple products. I understand technology moves on but the mindset that i am supposed to dump a perfectly working machine after a couple of years or face not being able to use any other apple product is counter to what thought apple was about.

    Congratulations. You have bricked it.
    Buy a new phone if you want one you can use.
    You can not get help here. Jailbreaking voids any warranty and Apple Care agreement and forfeits your right to support from Apple and on these forums.

  • HT201413 iphone 3gs is dead and not responding for DFU restore also. getting errors like 1600,1601 etc., any help?

    iphone 3gs is dead and not responding for DFU restore also. getting errors like 1600,1601 etc., any help?

    Mikey, I have the exact same problem. Dropped my 3gs on Thanksgiving, phone was not responsive, plugged into the wall charger, went to grey iPhone restore screen, then said to connect to itunes. So I plugged it into itunes but itunes wont recognize it nor will my computer. I searched the internet for hours with no success. I tried to change USB ports and cords, tired removing the SIM card, reinstalled itunes, everything. When I put it in DFU mode itunes recognizes an iphone in recovery mode, so I click restore and update, then I get error 1602 every time. My iPhone also loses power when I unplug it from the wall. I do not know what to try next. You are the only person I have found with the same exact problem I have. I will update you if I find a way to get my phone working again and I hope you will do the same. I'm very frustrated

  • My iPhone 3GS has dead spots on the left side of the screen, does anyone know how this problem has started or how I can fix this?

    Over the past couple of months, my iPhone 3GS has had dead spots on the left side of the screen, preventing me from using the r, d and x keys, the number 4 and the semi colon and comma keys. Does anybody have any ideas on why this has happened or any ideas that I'll be able to fix this problem?
    Just a note; I can't put my phone to sleep or turn off as my lock button isn't working, so I'm using the AssistiveTouch settings.
    Thanks.

    This has no impact on the ability to purchase a new iPhone... it simply means that the newer one will not be at a fully subsidized price.
    You could always take it to Apple and do an Out of Warranty exchange (I'm assuming the device is out of warranty) for $149 US.

    Let's get that S5 up and running! I want you to love the S5! Is the old device powered off? What zip code are you in?

    Important: Only reset your iPhone or iPod touch if it is no longer responding.
    Why is this important? With a reset, you won't lose any data or settings so it doesn't matter when you do it. I routinely reset at least once/week.
    Also with a Reset, your refresh the iPhone. And yeah, I do this once a week. That way my iPhone will stay responsive.
    If your iOS device is not responding or its very slow then you haven't rebooted the device. Its important to reboot once in a while. Instead of leaving the device in sleep mode for a long time, chances are your device will be slowing down until you reboot it. Even computers. If you don't reboot to refresh the Operating System, eventually the system will begin to slow down.

    Typically activation issues are the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.
