Hey beyond_infinity,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like it does not start up past Apple logo. This article helps troubleshoot that exact symptom.

  • My iPhone 3GS wont open Apps or e-mail and I cannot MMS pictures from my camera

    My iPhone 3Gs has stopped opening my App Store application and iTunes application.  When I open the camera and try to MMS a picture it returns to the home page.  When I open my e-mail it will show me the inbox page but when I try to open a specific e-mail it takes me back to the home page.  I have tried to uninstall applications and re-install them.  I have also done a restore on my phone.  Still have the same problems.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Was your restore from backup or as new?  Restoring from backup can restore the same corrupt software over and over again.   Restore as new.

    Hi CalebAchid,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If applications on your iPhone are quitting after updating your software using iTunes, first restart or reset your phone:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    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.
    You can find the article with these steps here:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If you are still experiencing the same issue, I recommend resetting all settings next:
    Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose Reset All Settings:  All your preferences and settings are reset.
    Reset iPhone settings

    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:
