I dropped my iphone 3gs, it still works, i have the applecare protection, my at&t account expires 4/2012. Will I be locked into another year with at&t if I try to get my  phone repaired?

if you have applecare on your phone, this has nothing to do with your contract with At&t, so no you should be ok.

  • The ear microphone on my Iphone 4 has stopped working as have the touch pad tones. Everything else appears to be ok including the microphone at the base of the unit

    The phone works fine on hands free and external headsets its just when I want to use it as a phone! I have noticed a couple of times that when I have dialled the number and cannot hear a response the mute key is highlighted. Even when I cancel this I cannot hear the person on the end of the call. Furthermore the touch pad tones have gone as well. I haven't tried restoring the phone yet but not sure what data I may lose if I did that

    I would call Apple tech support, which is excellent.  Or take the phone to your local Apple store - not AT&T or Verizon, as the Apple techs specialize in Apple products and are somewhat fanatical about them.
    Regarding the photos, they are probably still on the simm card in the phone and recoverable.  Check with the Apple folks to get them back... sorry about your pet!

  • My friend with iphone 4s is not getting messages from my iphone 3gs even tho we both have the new software. everyone else gets our txts but we don't get each others. Help???

    does anyone know how to fix this? it's driving me insane idk what to do!!!
    It hasn't been working for three days now, and i really need it to!
    I also tried taking off my iMessage but nothing changed.
    HELP!!

    My mistake, I read your post too quickly.  I thought you said that you were both getting the same messsages.  Is your friend not getting just your messages or does she not get anyone's messages?  If she's not getting just your messages you might want to try deleting her contact on your phone and creating it again.  Sometimes that will clear things up.  Also, obviously the contact must match the number she receives messages at.

  • IPhone 3GS no longer works with bluetooth since ios 4.3.2 update

    Hi all. Since the ios 4.3.2 update my iPhone 3GS no longer works correctly with the bluetooth in my car (2006 Acura TL).  I know it's not an issue with the car and the only thing that has changed is the update with the phone.  Anybody else having this issue?  I have unpaired, tried to re-pair, reset the network settings, reset all of the settings, and did a restore.  I'm at a loss with what to do next.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Its becoming a problem of epic proportions...so many people are having the exact same problem...I have a Feb 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 200 and since upgrading to OS 4 my USB function no longer works like it did before the upgrade.
    My Apple has become a LEMON!!
    Would be nice to hear that Apple recognises there is a problem...buut maybe they are too busy counting all their money to care!!

  • I dropped my iphone 3gs in water and grabbed it immediately out. It gave me a charger is not supported with device screen every minute or two. I powered it off for the night. I havent experienced problems since. Why does it still work?

    I dropped my iphone 3gs in water and grabbed it immediately out. It gave me a charger not supported sign every minute or two. I decided to turn it off for the night and the next morning it worked fine and only the bottom sensor was triggered. Why does it still work and how long will it last?

    Water in itself will not kill electronic components if you let it dry out.  Your first reaction to turn it off was a good one but you could have waited even longer.
    It also depends what's on your water that will stay after the water itself had dried; like salt. Anything that iseither acid or conductor left on the circuit board will reduce the life of the board.  Given said this, no one could state how long your iPhone will work since no one will know for sure where the water had time to infiltrate before you removed your device and no one what's may left there.
    Consider yourself lucky.  I don't understand however what you mean by a sensor triggered.

  • IPhone 3GS GPS not working

    So I am gonna try this because I know others haven't got a response they have liked or helped…
    I have a 3GS, running iOS on my iPhone 3GS, but still am having issues with the GPS, I am sure others are still having this issue. I found this thread awhile ago, but there wasnt much follow-up on this from Apple, Go to a Genius Bar, plus people in this thread have said that they did that and nothin has worked, or the Mac Genius suggested it might just need the SIM card replaced… I really dont think that would help
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11248780
    So… Apple can you guys just give some clarity on whats is up with this, I mean I am loyal and keep buying your products, but it is only fair that you share just a lil bit of info like: "an update is coming soon to fix this or its a hardware issue, come on in and it will be resolved."
    Let me know if anyone else is still having issues or has a resolution
    Thx

    What Modem Firmware are you using on the phone?

  • What would cause the microphone in the iPhone 3Gs to stop working?

    What would cause the microphone in the iphone 3Gs to stop working?

    Basic troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore.  If these are tried and you still have problems then you have a hardware failure and will need to have your phone replaced by Apple.

  • I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    Tim is correct.
    But, first step with 3GS white screen and most iPhone problems is Reset, hold both home and power buttons until iPhone begins to restart itself, usually about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still white screen.
    Next step would be Restore the iPhone Firmware with iTunes on your computer. If still white screen.
    Next step would be to follow Tim's advice, if you had not already.

    Your the one saying it won't work properly, so yes it is broken.

  • My iphone 3gs is not working properly, when switched on it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and more often than not just resets itself.

    My iPhone 3gs is not working properly and hasn't been since about September of last year. When switched on (Quite often it won't even turn on) it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and just resets itself over and over until power is gone. Occasionally after switching on and off a few times it functions normally for a few hours and some times even a couple of days but eventually always turns itself off and goes back to the 'Update Completed' screen. Does anyone know what might be causing this and/or a way of fixing it?

    Morning JordenR,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    You can resolve many restore issues using the troubleshooting steps documented here.

  • What shall i do? I've done restoring my iphone 3gs and still stuck on cannot activate and contact customer service.

    I've done restoring my iphone 3gs and still stuck on cannot activate and contact customer service. What shall i do? any help please.

    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.
