Iphone 3GS keep loading in apple logo after restore to 4.3.5

Hi all,
I have an problem in my iphone 3GS. It couldn't boot up to lockscreen and always stuck in apple logo but it able to sync to the itunes. I try many times in restoring to latest firmware 4.3.5 in DFU and recovery mode and also uses different PC, the problem still not resolved. Anyone can advise?

I would try forcing into recovery mode and then restoring again to see if this helps. If not then it would need to be serviced by repair or replacing the device which will not be covered under the warranty due to the liquid.

    Apple recommends backing up the data when you're getting the battery replaced by them. So I assume that you will likely lose the data during this process.
    Will the data on my iPhone be preserved?
    No, during the service process all data on your iPhone will be erased. Before obtaining service, it is important to back up your data using iCloud or iTunes. Apple is not responsible for the loss of information while servicing your iPhone and does not offer any data transfer service. During service, Apple may exchange your iPhone with an iPhone that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability.
    Following service, your iPhone may have a newer operating system (iOS) version and you will need torestore your data using the method used to back it up (iCloud or iTunes). As a result, you may also need to update your App Store applications to ensure compatibility with the newer iOS. If you experience a problem with an application purchased from the App Store, check to see if an update is available or contact the application vendor directly.

  • My iPhone 3GS is stocked on apple logo while restarting my iphone.Do I need to reinstall new IOS on it?Or how can I connect with my itunes again.Thanksssss..

    My iPhone 3GS is stocked on apple logo while restarting my iphone. Do I need to reinstall new IOS on it?Or how can I connect with my itunes again.Thanksssss..

    I having the same issue about the and iTunes says "The iPhone cannot be restored at this time because the iPhone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable.". I've had the  iPhone 3GS since it came out. It was working fine until I just tried to  update it. It has never been hacked or jailbroken. We and a few others are having  the same issue then it is more than likely that this is an update issue.  I took mine to the Apple store and the tech tried to update it and he  came to the same problem and told me he couldn't update it. My  assumption is that we are not the only one's with this issue and that if  there was a way to update it to the update before this last one it  might be a solution. I don't know how to get the previous update. Apple  probably is aware of the problem, and hasn't come up with a solution  yet. Or, enough people haven't complained yet. The tech suggested that  there might be something wrong with the phone itself, but that couldn't  be since it was working perfectly before I updated it and others are  having the same issue. It is highly unlikely that a lot of people are  not having the same hardware issue all of a sudden at the same time.

  • What to do if your iphone 3GS freezes on the apple logo and wont respond when you try to reboot it?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps freezing as soon as i turn it on. I hold the home button and the power button to reboot it and it just wont respond to anything. It just stays froze on the apple logo with the black background and nothing else.

  • Iphone 3g got stuck in apple logo after resetting

    I tried to reset my iphone3g with the option which will delete all the datas and medias from the settings of iphone.It said it would take one hour or so to complete but its more than three hours and my iphone wont start.it gets stucked in the apple logo after restarting and the circle of working appears continuously.What should i do? Any help

    See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select"new".

  • My iPhone 3gs is stuck on apple logo even after a restore on DFU mode, what can I do?

    Hi guys, I just got an iPhone 3gs from my girlfriend and it was working perfectly, I restore it from the phone by erasing all data on it, and it wont boot after that, it is stuck on the apple logo, I've tried restoring it in recovery mode and even in DFU mode, but it's not working, what should I do?

    If you live near an apple store make an appointment.  They will perform a DFU restore using known good equipment.
    If that doesn't work you probably have liquid damage.

  • IOS Beta 7 OTA, iPhone 3GS stuck flashing between Apple Logo and a white screen

    After installing iOS Beta 7 OTA, iPhone 3GS is stuck flashing between Apple Logo and a white screen. I can turn the phone off by holding the top button. But the phone boots straight to the flashing situation. It doesn't appear in iTunes, and I haven't succeeded in putting into recovery mode.

    in the end ... i did it too.
    for sure, the problem is not related to OTA update
    this is my recipe, even if i think that the behaviour is a kind of random and all the recipes given here do not really help
    - absolutely needed: cross your finger before running the procedure
    - leave the battery run flat
    - open itunes
    - connect usb
    - when it starts booting, press home and keep it pressed
    - if it loops (it will ...), try to turn it off with power button while keeping home
    - after a few tries, it will not reboot and it will go into recovery mode BUT WITH SCREEN BLACK (you see it is in recovery mode in itunes)
    - upload ios5b7
    anyway ... this time it was a bad release by apple ...
    and i think this thread will become very "popular" in the next days

    First of all im from Estonia so im sorry about my bad english. The thing is that i wanted to sell my iphone 3gs, but when i erased all content and settings my battery went so low it shut down. So i tryed to turn iphone on while it was charging and only thing i saw was apple logo loading.

  • My Iphone 4 keeps flashing the apple logo.

    Yesterday I was just checking out what apps I had in my phone when the screen suddenly went black. It stayed like that for about 3 seconds than the apple logo started flashing every 3 seconds. It only flashes when it's on the charger (whether the charger be plugged into the computer or wall), and whenever it's not, it just stays black and doesn't do anything.
    I've tried everything like trying to reset it or to put it in DFU mode but nothing will work. It won't connect to itunes or my computer at all. I have the latest itunes and IOS and I can't figure out what to do.
    Please help.

    Does your device have a full charge?  Often if you give it a full charge, that will fix the problem 
    If that doesn't work, plug it into itunes and run any updates that may be available. 
    Let me know if we are still broken after this.
