IPhone 3GS menu has gone!!! Please help~ 

Hi! Recently I bought an iPhone which version is 3.1.2. The menu in the phone was gone!!! My phone was like having a black display~ I couldn't see anything on the screen. Sometimes when I press on the Round button to enter Spotlight, one of my downloaded App will appear on the Spitlight although I didn't type anything in the search. It's so weird!!! Is it because of the firmware which I've upgraded? The previous version is 3.1.1. Anyone encounter the same problem as mine? Hope I'm not the only unfortunate one :o(

Have you tried restart?
Reset?
Restore?

    cannot activate my viber after i update to 6.1.3 iphone 3gs..can u please help me...the the code is ok but if i activate...its being error.

    @theViberTeam .
    I'm having trouble with Viber.
    A few days ago, I accidentally uninstalled it on my IPhone 4, and reinstalled it later on..
    When I tried sending the activation code using the same cell phone number I had on Viber before It got uninstalled, I receive the code but when I try to put it in it keeps saying that I entered the wrong activation code, I click on the no code feature on the top right corner of Viber, it gives me a code, but when I put that code in it says the same thing ,that I have the wrong access code please try again, and so I researched on the internet and came up to this post, It said to uninstall viber and wait 24 hours to install it again, I waited 24hours and tried it again, but it STILL does the same thing. and... I even tried entering my other phone number, yet it does the same thing and shows me the same message that I entered the wrong access code....It is getting frustrating! May you please Help ME?! What can I do??

    The problem is your phone was illegally unlocked and jailbroken. When you upgraded it took the unlock off and now it is locked to the original carrier it was locked to. You will not be able to unlock it now.

  • IPHONE 3GS UPDATE PROBLEM! PLEASE HELP!!

    I went to update my iphone 3gs. an error popped up froze my phone and now it says i must factory reset my phone.....i do not want to clear my phone! it will not even attempt to connect to itunes without the restore! PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!

    cjkeith, you've every right to be frustrated, but now you're coming across as well, let's just say "unsmart".
    First, what on earth does paying 500.00 for a phone and thousands of dollars in other apple products have to do with anything?
    Second, do you think any of us care about your idle threat to save your money and buy a non-Apple product? 
    Third, and what makes you seem the most "unsmart" is your last statement.  We're not Apple here on this user to user technical support forum.  We're users just like you!  So your last statement is just so ridiculous.
    It's always easier to place the blame for our own misfortunes on someone else, rather than take responsibility for our own action.  As Dr. Al stated, you learned a lesson the hard way. 
    Time to move on.

  • HT201415 iphone 3GS showing no service, please help!!

    My iphone 3gs is showing "no service" tried everything please help!!!

    If doing a reset (hold the sleep/wake and home button until the Apple logo appears) doesn't correct it then try getting a new SIM from your carrier.

  • Iphone 3gs wont turn on PLEASE HELP

    Okay so a few hours ago I tripped and fell on some wooden stairs with my iphone in my pocket. Afterwords I tried to listen to some music and it wouldn't turn on, I tried resetting it and plugging it into a charger but that didn't help. It has no cracks or dents in it and its only two months old. Is there anything else I can try before calling up apple or bringing it into them? Thanks

  • Iphone 3gs software 5.0, PLEASE HELP

    I have downloaded the software, but when I actually update it on my 3gs it says "backing up iphone" and it loads about 1mm of green and then doesnt load anymore. I have tried everything!

    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported.
    Sounds like your iPhone was hacked/modified/jailbroken to work
    with wireless carrier other than the one it was purchased from. The
    update has relocked it to the original carrier. Contact the original
    carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify - only the
    carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Be advised that the previous modifications to change from original carrier
    to your local Carrier may have rendered the iPhone unable to be
    officially unlocked.

  • Red dot on iphone 3GS voicemail icon. Please help!!

    Having this little red dot on my phone/voicemail icon for a couple of days indicating that i have a voice message and it's annoying.
    Anyone facing the same issue?
    Any solutions to clear off the red dot?
    I doesn't have voicemail service nor a voicemail box with my service provider.
    Thank you

    Icons are explained in the manual:

    I believe orientation lock is the icon you are seeing. You can check in the manual.

  • My iphone 4 screen has gone blank and its still on it vibrates when i put it on charge ive tried turning it off and the screen is still not showing anything please help

    my iphone 4 screen has gone blank and its still on it vibrates when i put it on charge ive tried turning it off and the screen is still not showing anything please help

    Hi Ellen,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your iPhone 4 has a dim or blank black screen but responds to some commands like enabling vibrate. I understand this may be a frustrating situation, but the troubleshooting suggestions in the article below will help you solve the issue.
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If your screen is too dim, too bright, or you see only faint images
    Try to adjust the brightness. If the screen doesn’t respond when you adjust the brightness, open several apps to make sure it’s not an issue with only one app.
    If you have a screen protector, try removing it. Try removing your case if it includes a screen protector.
    If you see the issue in multiple apps, restart your device.
    If restarting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Take care,
    -Jason

  • Hi, my iphoto had a transparent ? mark on it and wouldn't open so I dragged it onto the desk top and now it has disappeared... I cannot find it anywhere in my finder, it seems to be gone, please help!

    Hi, my iphoto had a transparent ? mark on it and wouldn't open so I dragged it onto the desk top and now it has disappeared... I cannot find it anywhere in my finder, it seems to be gone, please help!

    You have one and possibly two problems.
    First problem you tried to open the iPhoto library with iTunes and appeared to have set iTunes as the default app for iPhoto Libraries. That isn;t going to work.
    To fix that select the iPhoto library in the Finder and do a File->Get Info. In the middle of the Info window you'll see Open With dropbox. Click on that and select iPhoto, then select the Change All button
    This will get iPhoto back as the default app to open iPhoto Libraries.
    Double click the library now and if nothing else is wrong iPhoto will open the library. If it does do as Michael wrote and go to the Applications folder and drag iPhoto to the dock to remake the shortcut.
    However since you started this thread by saying that the iPhoto shortcut in the dock had a question mark on it it is possible that iPhoto is missing from your Applications folder. If it is post back.
    regards

  • My iphone 3gs will not charge anymore help please!!!

    At first it would only charge if i placed it in a specific way but now its not charging at all. Its brand new only got it a week ago and it had these charging issues out of the box. I cant go to a genius bar or use my warranty because i live in malawi a small country in africa where most people see an iphone as alien technology so please help a brother out!!

    If your iPhone has a hardware problem and it sounds like it does, no one here can help.
    The iPhone includes a one year warranty, which can be used in the country where the iPhone was sold officially by Apple.
