I´m in Portugal: would my iPhone 3Gs work in US?

This is a question for your provider in Portugal - they would probably know if it is compatible with service in the US

My iPhone 3GS (working on iOS 6.1.3) has not backed up to iCloud for the past 10 weeks.

My iPhone 3GS (working on iOS 6.1.3) has not backed up to iCloud for the past 10 weeks. And whenever I try Backing up to iTunes or to iCloud via either a pc or a Mac, I get the message: "Itunes could not backup the iPhone because an error occured". I tried turning off all apps for backup, but that did not help. I tried deleting all the photos and that did not help either. I tried the backup trobelshooting and I have tried using different computers. I'm completely stomped.

Hi ShakedG,
I'm not sure if this is what you were referring to, but I just wanted to make sure that you had seen the following article:

If my iPhone was stolen and i want to reactive an old phone using that same number for the time being while i waited to see if I could get my iPhone back, would the iPhone still work while i was using a re-activated old phone of mine?

If my iPhone was stolen and i want to reactive an old phone using that same number for the time being while i waited to see if I could get my iPhone back, would the iPhone still work while i was using a re-activated old phone of mine?

If a new SIM is activated on the same account for the same number, any existing SIMs for that number are deactivated.
Why exactly would you care if the SIM in the missing device still works or not?

Will an iPhone 3GS work in iCloud?

Will my iPhone 3GS work with iCloud? I realize I need OS5 on the phone to get the fancy stuff but will all the syncing still work with the calendar, addresses, notes and such?

icloud is part of iOS5 which runs on the 3GS ( not on the 3G ), so everything in iCloud will work.
To be able to sync between other devices, they must all run also iOS5 and for a Mac 10.7.2 Lion. PCs with XP wont work as Vista is needed.
So if you have Macs that can't run Lion, PCs that don't have Vista/Win7 with Outlook07 / 10 or iOS devices that can't run version5 these will no longer sync with the iOS5 3GS.

No you won't. You can try, but your order will be canceled.
But, yes, the phone is unlocked. But again, you won't be ordering one.

Why would my iPhone 3GS die with 30% battery shown on screen?

Hi there!
It's been a couple of weeks since my iPhone 3GS started switching off abruptly (not even showing the AJAX roulette that indicates it is switching off) while the battery indicator was showing a percentage close to 20-30%.
Right after that, I try to switch it back on, and then Apple logo on screen but after several seconds the iPhone goes off again, abruptly.
In one occasion, the Mail app was open and downloading/sending mail and right after pluging in the cable to charge it and switch it back on, it created some corrupted blank/empty emails where there should not be.
I know there are some rules we have to follow with today's gadget batteries and I tried to charge it fully and discharge it completely with several cycles, but no improvement whatsoever (only one day I got to 3%, but the problem started again right after that). The switching off during this time was never controlled by the iPhone, like a timed closing, but direct switch off and all not saved data lost, kind of a hard reset.
Is this a general problem many people would be having now with iOS4? Is my battery deffective?
Any help would be very much appreciated. I really love my iPhone, and this is becoming disappointing.

Hi there,
For how long does the logo remain static..? If it's for up to 3-4 minutes then I'd say it's okay (albeit it is a long time) but if it's 5-10 minutes or more then okay there's a fault of some kind I guess.
I went through a phase where my 3GS would restart and seemingly get stuck at the Apple logo, for what seemed forever. Killing the phone and forcing it to restart would see it restart a lot quicker. Odd though that if I'd left it alone then after 3-4 mins it would start on its own.

Would my UK unlocked iPhone 3GS work on t-mobile US 3G network?

I have a unlocked iPhone 3GS bought from the UK last year. I know US iPhones dont work on t-mobile's 3G network due to network incompatibility. However, do UK iPhones work on t-mobile's 3G network?

The same incompatibility exists in all GSM iPhones. They can use the US T-Mobile network, but only using EDGE since T-Mobile's 3G service uses a frequency not supported in the iPhone.

What can I do to get my iPhone 3GS working properly after getting the error (23) when I tried to restore it on iTunes?

all my iphone 3gs shows is connect to itunes when i plug it up to charge. and if i dont have it plugged up it would constantly show the apple emblem on the black screen and then disappear (it will do this on and off quite a bit). i tried to restore it on itunes and after it was all done an error (23) popped up. i really need someones help to fully fix this problem please!

Start here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US#error23
Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

Does the iphone 3gs works well with ios 5

I need to buy an iphone 3gs for my daughter and need to know if it works well with the new IOS 5 or what ?

I have the nearly the same problem.
My problem is exactly that the music will play, but not over the internal loud speakers.
When in plug in the earphones i will hear the music.
Also the loud speakers would be fine, because the loudspeakers would work when i make a hands free phone call.
There must be a bug in the ios 5.1.
I also had a phenomen when I was connected in my local network, I have some airport express, I see these airport express device, the dock connector, but not the internal speaker or the iphone to select as an sound source.
And i tried to make a reset. Doesn't help.
Maybe i try next to set back the phone to manufacturer settings and restore it.

HT3597 Why would my iPhone 3GS say voice command when I'm not using it?

IPhone saying voice command when playing pandora. What would cause this to happen?

Someone or something is activating it by pressing and holding the home button.

Moving to South Korea; Will iPhone 3GS work?

From what I've gathered in a few posts it sounds like it's hit or miss on whether or not you can transfer the iPhone between countries.
I've had the 3GS for a little over a year now (so still under the 2yr contract) and will be moving to South Korea within a couple months. Is it possible to use my phone there as I would in the states? If I have to stay with AT&T is my only option to pay for the international plans? Is it possible to end my contract with AT&T and use the 3GS with a Korean carrier? I'm looking for legal options to continue using my phone in Korea as I'll be there for a year.
Thanks for your insight -Andrew

All US sold iPhone's are locked to AT&T.
AT&T will NOT unlock the iPhone, no matter what the reason.
Here is a list of carriers that offer the iPhone in various countries around the world. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937
If you want to use the iPhone in South Korea, sell your US iPhone before you leave and buy one in South Korea when you get there. The International roaming plan is extremely expensive.
Keep in mind that the warranty for the iPhone is ONLY valid for the country in which it was originally sold by Apple (or their authorized reseller).

Wil iPhone 3GS work without SIM card?

I am getting ready to upgrade to an iPhone 4. Someone had told me that after I take my SIM card out of my 3GS that my kids could still play the games we have installed on it. That it would continue to operate like an iPod Touch. Is this true?

Yep:

Will the new Iphone 3Gs work with Iphone 3G accessories?

So I have an Iphone 3G and of course I'm ready to upgrade to the 3Gs.
However, I have a car charger and the Video component cables for my 3G. Will these work with the 3Gs?

Your car charger and the video component cables for your 3G should continue to work. The reason some of the car chargers that worked with the first generation iPhone didn't work with the iPhone 3G is Apple removed the firewire pins from the dock connector with the iPhone 3G. A number of car chargers charged via firewire, not USB. The first generation iPhone supports charging via firewire, which is not supported with the iPhone 3G, and will no longer be supported with any future iPhone or iPod models.

IPhone 3GS works fine, unless I the screen goes black after no use. Then I'm stuck on the white screen until I reset the phone.

The title kind of sums it up. After having my 3GS for over a year without issue, it started acting up today. I had my phone on my desk at work, and had been checking my e-mail, news, and web intermittently throughout the morning. I set the phone down, in it's typical spot without issue. No dropping, no hits, no...nothing. Just set it on the desk and go about my work.
The next time I pick up the phone to use it, and hit the button, I'm greeted with an all-white screen. WTH? If I press and hold the home button the phone makes a "dunk" soud, like maybe I'm enabling the voice feature. Long story short, I can restart the phone, and reset the phone, and it's fine.
UNTIL the screen goes dark from inactivity. From that point on, it will ONLY come back in the full-white-screen mode UNTIL I reboot it again, in which case it's again functioning normally...UNTIL the screen goes black from inactivity. I can hear the phone make text-alert noises as texts come in, my e-mail continues to download regularly, etc. But it stays stuck in this white screen anytime the battery saver turns the screen black.
Any ideas on this?

So, I've received and installed a replacement digitizer screen / component. The good news is that the digitizer works just fine! Screen swipes, finger tracking, etc are all great.
The bad news...is that it didn't fix my white screen issue. Same symptoms...everything works fine at boot. As long as I keep the screen from going dark, everything continues to work fine (rapidly consuming battery, of course). If, at any time, the screen goes dark (get a call, accidentally press the top button to shut down the screen, etc), the screen will only come back on as a white screen.
All touch components are working fine at this time. I've grown to remember where the "power down" swipe is located, so I press and hold the power down button, then swipe where I know the "power down" swipe is located. Phone will shut down.
Restart the phone, and repeat the process. Anyone have any other ideas?
