Iphone 3gs is suspended and enters recovery mode ios 6.1.3

I have an iphone 3gs with ios 6.1.3 update works well while you are discontinued on but the phone enters recovery mode, can not turn it on or off and when I connect it to the computer does nothing, I have restored several times since itunes when but the flaw allows continuous, wanted to know if there is solution to the problem. thanks

"We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care...Your request Could Not Be Completed?"
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, you need to get a sim card from the carrier the 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.

  • HT1267 my iphone 3gs wont come out of recovery mode and wont restore

    I can't get my iphone out of recovery mode and it wont restore. What do I do?

    Did you use the recovery mode instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 and that did not work?
    If that will not work, you can use DFU mode, but the timing of the actions is critical:
    Power down the iPhone, start iTunes on the computer, connect the USB end of the cable to the computer.
    Press and hold the power button on the iPhone while attaching the other end of the cable, and continue to hold the power button for three seconds.  Then, while still holding the power button press and hold the home button.  Continue holding both buttons for ten seconds, then release the power button and continue to hold the home button for an additional twenty seconds.  Release the home button and you should be able to restore.

    Hello sehrimbabes,
    I would recommend resetting the phone with this procedure then try again:
    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.

  • IPhone 3Gs: Error (-1) after attemped update to iOS 5

    After attempting to update to iOS 5 on my 3Gs, my iphone becomes bricked and enters recovery mode. The update proceeded as normal without issue untill it asked me to for a restore. Now, after every attempt to restore I receive the message: unknown error (-1).
    theiphonewiki.com lists error (-1) as:
    "Error occurs when one uses the "last ditch" method for preventing baseband updates on the iPhone 4. The baseband does not get updated using this method. Use TinyUmbrella to kick it out of recovery mode."
    My 3Gs is not jailbroken and I am unsure of thrid party software when it comes to my apple devices. Also error (-1) shows to be an error message for the iPhone 4, which is not the case in my situation.
    I have attempted these procedures:
    Removed the sim card, attempted recovery without sim card (x1): No change.
    Reinstalled the sim card, attempted recovery (x1): No change.
    Rebooted computer, attempted recovery (x5): No change.
    Switched USB ports, attempted recovery (x4): No change.
    Attempted recovery on multipule computers (x6): No change.
    Reinstalled iTunes, rebooted, attempted recovery (x1): No change
    Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, has any procedure that I haven't tried worked for you? Any insight or recommendations would be very helpful.
    Thanks in advance!

    Here's what fixed it for me. Pretty simple mistake I overlooked.
    I turned off the firewall that was running in the back ground through my virus protection control panel. I then proceeded to make another attempt and it finished as it should have. I did loose all my settings, pictures and videos although, I still have the 2 notes I made in the Notes app. I would have gladly sacrificed the measurements I took for the gutters on my house for the pictures I took of my nephew the day he was born. This is a wake up call to import my photos more offten and/or before another update. Win some, loose some I guess. At least I can make phone calls now. >.<
    I hope this will work for anyone else having the same issues.
    Good luck!

  • 3GS Enters Recovery Mode randomly!

    3GS bought when new, is now randomly entering Recovery Mode. Seems like it does it more often than not when I am out of town and away from my computer.
    It has been doing this since 4.0 release. It is now starting to do it more frequently.
    Any idea's would be helpful as I am about 2+ hours away from a Apple Store.

    It has enterered Recovery Mode again, this time I cannot get it out. I was running iOS 5 B7, so I tried restoring to that, I get the message "the iphone iphone could not be restored. this device isn't eligible for the requested build".
    So ok, not a biggy I will just go back to 4.3.5, nope. I get error 1015. Now I put the phone into DFU mode(black screen only) and try both ways. Nothing, it gets to installing my new firmware and either itunes crashes when it gets close to finishing or the same errors pop back up.
    So now I downloaded a few different softwares, TinyUmbrella, and Recboot, those do not work either.
    Any ideas?

  • My IPhone 4S keeps entering recovery mode after few hours

    Hi,
    I bought a new IPhone 4S from 12/2011. The first month of usage is fine but after I plug it into Itunes in my PC, problems start to appear. The phone keeps entering recovery mode (screen with itunes logo and USB cable) after a few days. Not long later, it automatically goes into recovery mode after 4-5 hours or randomly. I tried to hold the power with home button to kick it out but it goes back to recovery mode again after few hours. The following issues are also detected:
    - Sometimes there is a blue horizontal line appear when device is rebooting with Apple logo.
    - Any apps other than Apple's default apps cannot be accessed (tap the icon and it gets kick out to the home screen).
    - A yellow screen is often seen and then device goes back to recovery mode by itself.
    - 2 to 3 out of 10 attempts holding home and power buttons can get it out of recovery mode while 7-8 times this does not help.
    I even use Itunes on PC to recover the phone as new Iphone. I went through all the settings as a new phone but the problem still persists.
    I thought this is minor software issue but after seeing all these behaviors, I suspect this may a hardware-related problem.
    Did anyone experience this problem before?
    Cheers.

  • IPhone 4S suddenly enters Recovery Mode by itself?

    Hi,
    I need help recovering data from my wife's iPhone. It's an iPhone 4S, running iOS 5.0, un-jailbroken. She clicked on the app 'Dragon Story' and her phone went into recovery mode. Thing is, she has never backed up the iPhone since purchasing it in Oct 2011 even after numerous reminders from me. I know, I should have just done it for her. What saddens me is that we have lost all photos of our now 3 month old baby (2000+ photos).
    It has never been jailbroken before, but I tried using Redsn0w, iRecovery, Recboot to kick it out of recovery mode but nothing works. Doing a hard reset just boots it back into recovery mode. Can someone please help me interpret the iRecovery log below and see what's wrong with it?

    Can we recover the photos without doing a restore, and if we HAD to do a restore, can we recover the photos afterwards using third party software? Any suggestions and advice is most welcome. I think my wife has learnt her lesson, she was bawling her eyes out last night for losing all of our baby's pictures. Please help!
    p.s. From what I've gathered, I can't kick it out of recovery mode because a bootrom exploit has not been found for the 4S. Should I wait unti one is released, or do you reckon it will never happen?
    Thanks in advance guys.
    Ben

    Nevermind I was able to get out of recovery thanks to tinyumbrella

    I have tried to hold the "home" and "power" button to reboot

    I have tried, to unplug the cable, hold the "home" button and then plug it in.
    Can't check the SN or warranty, cause it is stuck in restore mode.
    Is the hard drive gone? Should there be something replaced.

    Error 1 or -1
    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Usually this is caused by your antivirus or firewall blocking iTunes access to the Internet. It can also occur if the phone is jailbroken or if the computer you are using was ever used to jailbreak an iDevice.

    If you didn't back it up, your data is gone. There is no "solution" after the fact.
