  • IPhone 3GS wont turn on and is not recognised by iTunes

    Okay, so my iphone is not working at all, i have tried everything possible. It will not turn on, itunes recognises it sometime for 30 seconds then it thinks i have not plugged anything in. I have tried DFU, recovery mode, checked the wires, updated itunes and nothing. The other day, it turned on with the apple logo but then just turned off and nothing has happened since. I am running out of options hear and it has run out of warranty. Any help would be much appreciated. thanks.

    As far as trying to power up your device, make sure it has a good charge and then hold the button on the top of the phone and the home button on the faceplate together until the apple appears on the screen.

    If I was in your shoes, I would choose to restore the iPhone with iTunes and then choose to NOT restore a previous backup.  I'd then go on to set up the phone as though it were totally new, and choose the stuff to load onto it.
    The reason I'd go through that trouble.. even though it meant losing a lot of settings and having to set stuff up again .. is because I wasn't sure I could trust the backup that it's restoring from.
    If you have trouble again after doing the fresh reload -- especially if it's soon after you do it -- you may have a hardware issue with the phone, such as faulty flash memory or a processor chip that's failing. If that's the case, you'll want to consider your repair/replacement options at that point.

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore...
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • My iphone 3gs suddenly turned off and does not want to turn back on.

    My iphone 3gs all of sudden turned off and does not want to turn back on.

    Charge it with a wall charger for 15 minutes, then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears, about 10 seconds.

    That's normal.  Keep the phone in a warm pocket.  From the iPhone Tech Specs, http://support.apple.com/kb/SP565

  • HT201412 Iphone 3gs not turning on and restoring problem 5

    Hello, my iPhone crashed it wont turn on. When im connecting it to my itunes, it ask me to restore it. Im restoring it and after while the loading screen turn off and on the i tunes the error comes up.
    "The iphone iphone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred (5)"
    What should i do to get it working?.
    Thank You.

    You will have to restore it. It will be restored to the last backup you did when you synced with iTunes, which is why its a good idea to sync frequently.

  • I need help on my Iphone 3gs wont turn on

    Hello, I need help on my iphone 3gs won't turn on. I was travel to Asian when I charge my iphone with the USB Power Adapter  about 10-20 mins and then when I check on how many percent on battery then I hear sound on the adapter. I think is shock circuit on the Power Adapter then my iphone shut down. I try to turn on but it won't turn on.when I try used another charge but still don't work. What should I do.

    You either pay Apple to do it (usually you will get a replacement refurbished phone). Make sure to BACK IT UP first before taking it in. Plug into a computer that has the latest iTunes, do a sync and confirm the existence of the backup in iTunes / Preferences / Devices. If they give you a replacement, plug it back into the same computer and do a Restore to recover your stuff.
    Else, DIY!  i3G's are relatively easy to dismember and replace the battery. Parts and howto:  http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPhone_3GS

  • Dead end? Iphone 3gs wont turn on, home button is broken

    Hi! I have my iPhone 3gs for about 3 years now, working flawless. Last night I had my iphone on low battery until eventually it died. I connected it about 30 mins later to my charger, but after a hour I noticed it just won't react! I tried four other chargers that are compatible and none seemed to work. So I tried maybe to do a DFU mode solution, but my home button is broken so I can't do it manually. It's possible as a software in the PC..But the catch is my PC wont recognize my phone...:P
    This looks like a complete dead end! Do people here have any other solution to this? Else...I'm afraid I might be needing to get a new phone. :/

    You can probably get the home button fixed (and maybe a new battery) at a local repair shop.  Else, purchase a new phone.

  • IPhone 3gs wont turn back on once it goes into sleep mode!

    2 days ago my iPhone 3gs (OS 6.0.1) has gone completely wacko on me and i'm completely frustrated!   I have my phone set to have the screen shut off after 5 minutes.  Usually, to just reaccess the phone I just simply hit the home button.  Now, if I let it go into sleep mode, the phone WILL NOT come back on!  I went online and did some research, and it suggested holding the home button and the sleep button for 10 seconds to get it to come back on.  It works most times, but sometimes it takes a few tries to get it to come back on, and when it does come back on it takes forever to load up.  But the whole thing happens all over again when it goes into sleep mode.  My phone is fine as long as I set it to never go into sleep mode, but it is killing my battery.  I need to be able to put it into sleep mode as I have to be able to go all day without charging it at my job.  PLEASE help...I don't know what's going on with it.  I have never done anything to it (jailbreaking, illegal stuff, etc.) and I do all the updates that it asks to do.
    Please please help!

    If you actually see a "6" error code, here's what it means.  Disable your anti-virus and/or firewall.
    Errors related to third-party security software
    Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 1000, 9006
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.
