My iPhone 3GS camera has frozen

My iphone3gs camera frozen

Try forcing the Camera app to quit, you can use this Apple doc as a guide -> iOS: Force an app to close
If that doesn't do it, try restarting the iPhone.

Hmm, then it could be something somehow with the actual camera sensor behind the lens or maybe software issue. But i'd recommend ringing Apples support line and seeing if they can fix it, if it's still in warrantly they should do it free of charge.

IPhone 5 Camera has frozen

The phone is about 7 months old. I have tried several hard resets and nothing makes any difference. Any ideas? Thanks

The Camera App opens and the shutters are visible. The screen looks normal with "buttons" in the correct places at the bottom of the screen. The Video slider works but the camera does not open. Sometimes the AUTO and OPTIONS and facility to reverse the cameras are visible instead of the shutters.

My 3GS screen has frozen help?

My iPhone 3GS screen has frozen. This is the 2nd time it has done this but I cat remember how to fix it. Help?

Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still problem, connect iPhone to Wall Charger and Reset, this can often take 20 seconds time of holding both buttons.

The top row of my iPhone 3GS keyboard has stopped working.

The top row of my iPhone 3GS keyboard has stopped working. I've already done a soft reset, hard reset, and restored it to a new device. What else can I do?

When you are using other applications, or just on the home screen, does that area of the screen respond to touch?
Steps to resolve issue (I understand you have done what you have but it's always good to try again):
Clean the iPhone screen with the cleaning cloth that came in the box with the iPhone.
Do not wear gloves while using the touchscreen. Do not use the touchscreen with wet hands or immediately after applying hand lotion. Moisture affects touchscreen behavior in the same manner as it affects a trackpad.
If you have a protective plastic sheet or film on the touchscreen, try removing it because it may be preventing the touchscreen from working properly.
The current application may not be responding (frozen), press and hold the Home button below the screen for a least six seconds, until the application you were using quits.
If that doesn't work, turn the iPhone off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of the iPhone for few seconds until a red slider appears, and then slide the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't work, reset the iPhone. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If the steps above don't resolve your issue, please schedule a service appointment with an Apple Retail Store for evaluation and replacement, if necessary, even if your iPhone is out of warranty. If an Apple Retail store is not an option, contact Apple to find out your best service option or see the iPhone Service FAQ.
Tip: If you are going to take your iPhone into a Apple Retail Store for evaluation, follow these steps to help the Mac Genius understand where your touch screen is experiencing unresponsiveness.
Open the basic calculator application to test all but the top row of the screen. Press each button on the calculator and verify activity.
To test the area at the top of the screen, rotate the iPhone to change to the scientific calculator and press all the buttons in the left two rows. (An original iPhone must have iPhone 2.0 software installed to access the scientific calculator feature.)
To test the touchscreen function at the top of the screen of an original iPhone without the iPhone 2.0 software, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. If the slider does slide, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears to turn iPhone on again.

try soft reset dude (press and hold power and home button together, NOTE: the only time you let go of those buttons is when you see the apple logo, when you see the apple logo: let go quickly. your iPhone should restart, if NOT, turn it on and do soft reset again)
then test your camera.

My iphone 3Gs only has wi fi access within 1 to 2 meters from router

My iphone 3Gs only has wi fi access within 1 to 2 meters from router. It had been working normally for the last two years. I changed wifi modem a couple of months ago but still worked fine until a couple of weeks ago. I have the same problem with other wifi networks. The iPhone only picks them up if it's within 1 to 2 m of the box.
I've tried turning the phone and the modem on & off, restoring the phone and different wifi networks - no change, still has the same problem.
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong or what I could try next?

These are the symptoms of a loose or detached Flex Cable # 6 at the top of the Logic Board.

IPhone 3GS Camera App and Photo App Not Opening

Hi, my iPhone 3GS Camera Application and the Photo Application (Base Apple Photo-related apps "Photos", "Camera") will not open. When I tap either of them, it takes me back to the Home Screen and for a brief moment says "Library Updating", I have been waiting over a day for this to work and it still wont open.
If more information is required please specify what areas are needed below.
Thanks,
Datzy.

Please turn off your cpas lock.
All caps indicates shouting, is considered rude, and is difficult to read ( especially when you use no punctuation or sentence structure at all). Many will not read such posts.
Do as the manual says to do and restore the iphone.

How come my iphone 3gs camera takes pix even w/o me pressing the "shutter button"? this doesn't happen everytime tho. just there are times when it does.
could my iphone be defective?

Hi,
sorry, I really don´t understand what you mean. - Can you please explain
in an other way?
Does the shutter button on the screen work sometimes and sometimes not?

HT201328 i have bought a second hand iphone 3gs that has been jailbroken can it be unlocked officially?

It's against the forum term of service to provide help for jailbroken phones. You will need to use google to resolve your issue.

IPhone 3GS Camera Crashes iOS 4.3 When Device Used In Cold Weather

I was in Chicago today where the weather was in the low 40's (high 20s with the windchill). As I was sightseeing and using my iPhone to shoot casual snapshots, the OS completely crashed when I was trying to take the picture. My iPhone has never crashed for any reason, but I shrugged it off and then restarted the device. I took two more pictures, and then the phone again crashed on the third picture. After another restart, the phone started crashing every time I took a picture without exception.
Fearing the worst that my phone was about to die on me while on a business trip, I headed back to the car and headed for the hotel. As I was driving back, I got to thinking that my phone has never been in weather this cold before (I'm from California). As soon as I got to my room, I put the camera beneath the heating vent and allowed it to warm up. Once it felt like it was room temperature, I picked it up and started shooting pictures to see if I could get it to crash again. After forty pictures, it was still working.
Are there any known issues with the camera sensor on the iPhone 3GS in cold weather? Another poster from Eastern Europe seems to be having the same problem with the same model phone:
