IPhone 3GS not working in landscape mode even after tilting.

My IPhone 3GS works only in portrait mode even if tilted to landscape mode for all apps. For  the few apps which are primarily designed for landscape mode but do work in portrait mode, the device continues to work in landscape mode even when tilted to portrait. Continue to face this problem even after reloading iOS 6.

try switching off the portrait lock

  • 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.

  • Iphone 6 not going to landscape mode while in messages

    For some reason when i try to type in landscape mode phone will not go to landscape more I have to close the app multiple times just for it to happen. Also bluetooth not working with any devices. And for some other reason while on FaceTime other people are saying my picture on there end was upside down.. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! Also when i double click the home button and try to go back into iMessage the keyboard is no where to be found for a couple of seconds..

    Indeed the option to lock to portrait mode is not on in the control panel. The behavior of switching from portrait to landscape works fine in my hand, it's when the phone is in a holder that it does not detect the orientation and adjust accordingly. The iPhone 5 did this with no problem, but on iPhone 6 any app that allows landscape mode starts out in portrait mode and then does not automatically adjust. Rather you have to move the phone back into portrait mode and it's that motion of being re-oriented into landscape mode that finally triggers the switch.

  • TS1538 Iphone 3GS not working after IOS6 upgrade. Itunes not recognising Iphone anymore

    When I plugged my 3GS into Itunes I was advised of IOS6 upgrade, I clicked and done said,  the upgrade comenced. Hiowever, after a short while I got an error message saying "an unknown arror has accured" my Iphone will now only show the usb to Itunes screen indicating I need to do a restore. However, my phone is no longer recognised by Itunes or my PC. I've tried all the usual to reset the phone but no good. Is there a way to completely reset it back to factory default without using Itunes?

    Did you get an error message when upgrading? If so, what was it?
    Please also say what you mean by "not working". Is it displaying an error? Is it not connecting to a network? Does it connect to WiFi but not a data network? Was it hacked or jailbroken before updating?

  • Naming voice memos on iPhone 3GS not working.

    I have an iPhone 3GS
    I have many voice memos. I try to name them by pressing 'custom' then naming them, but once I quit the application, it NEVER saves the names. Does anyone know why? I know I'm doing everything 'right'; they appear named after I do this, but never after I quit and reopen the application.

    It has been reported that Apple decided to block developer access to libraries using external display on iPhone 2G, 3G and 3GS and iPods 1st, 2nd and 3rd generations.
    While I understand some potential limitations on hardware capabilities for earlier models, the iPhone 3GS can output to TV from Apple private applications such as iPod, YouTube and Pictures/Videos without any problem. I strongly suspect that it is Apple strategy to force people to upgrade to new hardware. I personally find that limitation for the 3GS rather unjustified if it is based on technical limitations (no comment if it is a purely marketing strategy)
    From their technical documentation: [[UIScreen screens]|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/ UIScreen_Class/Reference/UIScreen.html]
    screens
    Returns an array containing all of the screens attached to the device.
    Not all devices support external displays. Currently, external displays are supported
    by iPhone and iPod touch devices with Retina displays and iPad. Older devices, such as the
    iPhone 3GS do not support external displays. Connecting to an external display requires an
    appropriate cable between the device and display.
    Availability
    Available in iOS 3.2 and later.

  • My iphone 3gs is showing the following error even after plenty to efforts to get rid of it 'charging is not supported with this accessory'. what shud i do ? plz help...

    I bought a new cable but still its throwing the same error. Upgraded to iOS 6 from 5, still the same..!

    If you did not do a reset of your iPod please try that (you will not lose any data)
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If this does not work inspect the opening in your iPod where the cable connects. Look for any debris and clean it (a magnifying glass may be required).

  • IPhone 3gs Stuck in apple logo cycle even after restore!!

    I hope someone can help me with this. I was given an iphone 3gs to repair for my girl friend (the hold button had fallen off) I've succesfully repaired it but now the phone is stuck in a boot loop. I have fallowed all directions and succesfully restored the phone to factory settings with recent updates. The phone shows up on itunes as would any iphone when plugged in by USB, in that respect it functions as it should. The problem is that the screen only every shows one of three images; The apple logo, the revolving circle or the 'connect to itunes screen'.
    Can anyone please help me get it up and running properly? It makes no sense that that everything functions correctly except the screen. And it's not even that the screen itself is broken!
    I'm just plain confused at this point.

    I also discovered that If I push it to DFU and then use Recboot to exit it it will show 4 lines from the console over the logo and than screen turns black until the battery will die.

  • IPhone 3GS stuck on start up.  Even after restore

    Hi, hoping for a little help. Anything is appreciated.
    Ok, Phone crashed earlier tonight so I hard booted it. After this, the phone wouldn't get past the loading screen.
    So, after reading up on the best course of action, I checked iTunes on my PC could see the phone. It could. Next, I restored it. To which I got error code 2009. Lovely..
    Well, I did a little more reading and the next suggestion was to try another machine. I jumped on my MAC, hooked up the phone (Which by now had no OS installed) and ran the restore. It worked!
    Delighted at this point, I quickly realised the phoine was still not coming to life.
    Even now, as I'm restoring it for the second time for confirmation of issues, I'm at a loss as to what to do next.
    Any ideas anyone?
    For anyone wondering, this phone is as original and has never been jailbroken. The screen has been replaced but I doubt this would cause an OS boot issue.

    I had the same problem 2 days ago. It spontaneously decided to not boot.
    Hard restart didn't fix it. I see you're in England, so don't know who you contact. But I finally called AT&T and had tech support do some sort of Hard reset of my service on their end. It fixed it right away.
    No real explanation of what caused it. But again, it was on their end, not mine. Hope that helps your frustration.

  • Apple TV not working.  Period.  Even after restore.

    About a week ago, our Apple TV  (3rd generation) started running very sluggish.  Netflix and Hulu would both "time out" and we would do a restart of Apple TV repeatedly, but to no avail.  On Wednesday (January 14), we did a restore of the Apple TV.  And it worked.  For 3 days.  As of today, it's doing the same thing again.  We have Xfinity internet and it's running fine.  We can watch Netflix and Hulu on all portable devices and laptops.  But Airplay to TV is not working either.  So, it HAS to be the Apple TV that is screwed up.  It's running the most recent software update (7.0.2). 
    Has anyone else noticed anything different with Apple TV in just the last week?

    I've got pretty much the same issue. Mine never started acting sluggish but all the sudden a couple days ago it wouldn't connect to the Internet. I also have xfinity Which is working on all other devices with no issues.
    I've tried all all the different troubleshooting options with no success. Mine will connect if I hardwire it but that's not feasible since its in a different room than my router. Not sure what the issue is?

  • Iphone 3gs not working properly after update to ios4

    I updated my 3gs to ios4 and have had nothing but problems since doing so. My battery is draining faster than ever, I have had problems syncing with the exchange server at work which has always worked perfectly before, my reception is horrible in places where it used to be just fine, such as my house. I am constantly dropping calls in my house where I know my phone worked just fine before. I know Apple says their formula for figuring signal strength is inaccurate and has been for years, but that really has nothing do to with the fact that my phone used to work at my house and now it doesn't. Regardless of what the signal shows, I know I used to talk on my phone at my house and now it's a real pain in the a** to try to get through a conversation. Also many of my apps such as weather and stock apps will not update sometimes for a couple of days, no matter where I am or what the signal strength says. Has anyone else had a combination of these problems and if so any luck fixing any of them?
    Thanks

    Apple release an article after iOS4 came out about downloading a new exchange file
    Seen here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398
    I would start by doing this fix and see if that helps out any of your issues.
    I would suggest to sync everything and then back it up, restore your device to 'new', download this new exchange fix and then either restore your phone or better, re-sync you phone.
    Good Luck
