IPhone 3Gs has a color temperature display is warmer, or yellow-tinted
All greetings!
My new iPhone 3Gs has a color temperature display is much warmer, or yellow-tinted compared to the my iPhone 3G.
It is a defect of my iPhone 3Gs?
Here you can see it: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2415/2660565874_ef8a841a20.jpg
I recently bought a 3Gs and compared to my old 3G there's a hug difference! my 3Gs looks really yellow! I went to Apple store at the florida mall to verify if this was normal, brought my old 3G with me so they could notice the difference,so I made the appointment and when the so called "apple genius" saw my phone he noticed the difference and took my phone to change it to the back of the store, he came back in 3 minutes claiming that he changed my phone,when I looked at it,same yellow display I said to the guy that the display looks the same but he never gave me any other option, on my way out from the store i checked the info on the phone but it was the same IMEI as the one in the box, how could this be? if they supposedly change the phone, I asked to speak to a manager and explained to her my situation, the "genius" that "helped me" told the manager that what he did was only changing the display and since I didn't like it,he went back and put back again the display that came with the phone... at this point I got really upset and I asked the manager to speak to the "genius" and asked why he lied about the situation, the manager said that she would bring the guy so we could settle this situation,they left me waiting on the store 45 minutes and none of them showed up... Great Apple store service... Yeah right!! F#$%^ them!

My screen on my Iphone 3gs has lost it's light, Like, I have to hold it in some type of light to see it, what is wrong here?
This is called "no backlight problem". Try a Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart, usually takes 10 seconds of holding both buttons.
This problem is usually due to Liquid Damage to iPhone, either Logic Board component or LCD Display.
If you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage, hope it is not Liquid Damage and make Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution. -

Hi team, my iPhone 3gs has no service. How I can resolve this problem
Did you try removing the SIM and inserting it again?
Have you spoken to your carrier about getting a new SIM?
Have you tried the basics from the manual? Restart, reset, restore -
My iPhone 3gs has frozen while doing update 5.0.1 I think it was. All it shows is the iTunes logo and the usb cable on the screen. I will not turn on or off. I have tried reconnecting to iTunes but nothing happens. Have held both buttons for 10 seconds etc and nothing is working! What can I do?

My iPhone 3Gs has frozen and I can't do anything except turn it off by hard boot. When I plug it in, I have the apple icon and that is all. It was at 43 percent battery life when it happened and my Twitter app was giving me problems. Thoughts?
Put it in recovery mode and restore it as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

My daughter's iPhone 3gs has just been replaced by Apple. When she tried to restore her backup files she was told to upgrade to itunes 10, but she can't because her Macbook is too old to run it. What do we need to do to get all her stuff onto the new phone?
Here's what I'd do, go back to the Apple store, take the phone & computer. Ask the geniuses how to fix this since they replaced the phone. You never know, they may just update the computer for free...its happened before...can't gurantee it will happen for you, but worth a try.
Otherwise, you're looking at purchasing a retail copy of Leopard, however if her computer can handle Snow Leopard you can purchase the $29 upgrade disk & install a full copy of SL. -
okay, so lately my iPhone 3GS has been telling me i have no service what so ever for the past two days. But today when i was on the bus going home from school, i had perfect service and everything until i got close to my house (to clarify, i live somewhat far out from the center of town, and my school is right in the middle of town.. didnt know if that would affect anything). So then i asked my Dad about it and he reccomended restoring and updating my phone to see if it helped because im a couple updates behind. So i plugged it in, backed it up, and began to restore and update it. All was well until it got to the "verifying the restore with apple" stage. I was watching the rose bowl and not paying attention while it was on, but remembered that it started that stage at the beginning of the game. Now the game just ended 5 or 10 minutes ago and lasted a goood hour, hour an a half, and its still verifying!! i dont know what to do... HELP!
Did you check the security software settings? iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the update process: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

My iphone 3GS has wiped out all my contacts and I need help to recover them. I tried a restore back up and a backup from itunes but I don't use itunes at all so I don't think it worked. I tried also wonderfone and some type of DFU mode and couldn't find the contacts. What can I do please help.
Go to settings do a reset when reset is done you will need to enter your Wireless key for your router. Then go to software updates and download new update 8.0.2 That help me. Bsydd uk

Recently my iPhone 3GS has stopped ringing all of a sudden. I've checked the settings and nothing has been changed. I've also made sure the switch on the side is not on silent/vibrate too.
The other day it rang once then went to vibrate.
Anyone have any idea?
The phone is just over a year old too

had a text telling me my old iPhone 3GS has now been unlocked. Inserted Orange SIM (from daughter's working phone) and iTunes says no SIM installed. Help please
Kilted Tim is correct, did you plug it in to iTunes to complete the process? I assumed you would have done so, but I shouldn't have assumed.

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.

I would gladly upgrade to the next model if my contract was due!
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. -

Place your iPhone in manual recovery mode or DFU mode.
1. Connect your iPhone
2. Open iTunes
3. Hold down the home and power button for 8 seconds. After 8 sec, let go of the power but still hold down the home button until iTunes recognize your phone in recovery mode
