I can't charge my iphone 3GS

i'm using iphone 3GS for quite long time and my regular charger got broken so i tried using Genuine Apple USB charge which charges my ipod but am still getting that messeage on the phone saying "it's not supported" so i tried using the cable and plug it to my PC but the itunes only synchorising the iphone, now my iphone is off and i have no idea what to do.

Well if it was jailbroken no one here can help you.  Discussing jailbreaking is against the terms of use of this forum.

    Hello candymerna,
    At this point I would recommeng resetting the device if if will not turn on.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If it does turn on, but will not charge then take a look at this part of the article iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting found http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Power/Battery
    Battery does not charge from the USB power adapter
    Important: Only original iPhone can be charged from a FireWire-based power source. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the battery may drain.
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    Also refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery.
    If it is charging, but not recognized in iTunes take a look at one of these articles depending on your Operating System.

    please help!! how can i configure my iphone 3gs because i've been updated a new version, i did it but it's hard to activate it again. this message i always recieved in my iphone
    "We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time."

    You phone was hacked. You can not get help with it here. Hacking / Jailbreaking voids any warraty and forfeits your right to support. Discussing jailbroken / hacked devices is forbidden by the terms of service here.

  • HT1414 how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....

    how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....

    If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier.  The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

  • How can I update my iPhone 3gs to iOS4, after iOS5 came out?

    I am still running iOS 3 (1.3) on my iPhone 3GS and I'm happy with it - but all the new apps requires iOS4 and now I'm sick of this. I want iOS4 (and not iOS5, cause it will drain my battery as far as I've understood).
    How can I update my iPhone 3GS in a normal way to iOS4, through iTunes or another easy way? I have never jailbreaked an iPhone so I don't know too much about "backdoors" into my iPhone.

    The only Firmware in the iOS 4 series that Apple is still signing for the iPhone 3GS is 4.1. So you could restore  to 4.1. You will have to download the 4.1 IPSW from Apple, and then install it with iTunes, Option Click Mac or Shift Click Windoz, on the Restore Button and then select the 4.1 IPSW on your computer. The current iTunes may give meaningless Errors, I doubt because you are Upgrading. But if Error Message is given you will have to search the Web for ways to Exit Recovery.

  • Can you purchase the iPhone 3GS with cash?

    Just like the subject asks, can you buy an iPhone 3GS with cash, or do you need to use a credit card? I'm selling my 3G on Craigslist (for cash, obviously), and would rather just run to the Apple Store and pay with that and save myself a trip to the ATM.

    For new customers I believe they need a credit card. But for existing customers you can give them cash and they will put it on a gift card and then swipe the gift card. For some reason, they have to do it like that.

  • HT1386 Can't sync my iPhone 3gs: "store- authorize... ok", "sync ... your compurter is no longer authorized..." error

    Can't sync my iPhone 3gs: "store->authorize... ok", "sync ... your compurter is no longer authorized..." error
    how to solve this issue, help me

    The -50 error is documented in this article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    Here is a synopsis:
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

    How can I recognized an iPhone 3GS on iTunes 11.0.4.4 version on PC Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3?

    My IMEI is unlocked but I can't activate my iPhone 3GS 011950006982337

    ONLY the carrier the phone is locked to can legitimately authorize unlocking an iPhone.
    Your phone was hacked. Not legitimately unlocked.
    You can not get help here.
    Try google or buy a new, legitimately unlocked iPhone that you can use.
