My iphone 3GS crashed after iOS4.0.2

Hi,
I installed iOS4.0.2 last week. My phone crashed after that and not coming up. So I tried to restore from itunes, my iphone is at recovery mode and didn't started after that. Even now my iPhone 3GS is not displayed in iTunes.
I checked USB port; reinstall iTunes etc. But my phone is not coming up. It is showing only one screen ( connect to iTunes) and iTunes is not showing any sign of iPhone.
Suggest how can I restore my iPhone 3GS.

It sounds as if you had a similar problem to me.
Does iTunes try to reset and restore your iphone and you get an error message 1604?
I tried everything that was suggest by Apple, and then someone on here said try a different computer and it worked. So if you can access a different computer it's worth a try.

In trying to include what information all that I could I should have specified I DON'T KNOW THAT IT WAS DEFINATELY JAILBROKEN when I took it to the apple store they told me there's no way for them to tell if it was jail broken or not. I'm only going by what ppl have told me COULD HAVE BEEN DONE TO THE PHONE. With that said the only thing I know for sure is that the apple tech at the Genius Bar told me that someone took control of my root menu in February & I've had no control of my phone since. I asked him how to regain control & how he knew his exact words were "oh that is out of our scope of capabilities here at this level & you would need an apple engineer to fix it". I said ok then how do I get an apple eng then? He laughed & said you can't!!!! To which I was furious I came home & called apple requesting to speak w/the fraud dept to file a report they said we don't have a fraud dept!! So after a 45 mn phone call again I left w/no answers.
@TJBUSMC1973-
I DON'T HAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO SPEND HIRING AN ATTORNEY & Although I appreciate your suggestion I fail to how an attorney would be able to facilitate in any way since there's no suspect. I cannot prove that it's him doing it so I certainly can't pursue legal action w/no proof & no money. :'((
Again I thank you for your advice but I don't think that will help.
I was looking more for a TECHNICAL way to avoid this happening w/a new phone should I buy one or trying to get them out of my phone now! Such as installing some kind of software protection?? Someway to clear out the entire phone (other than factory reset which was done 10 x's w/no success, etc. if this person got in then there HAS TO BE A WAY OF GETTING HIM OUT, right????

Windows 7 (64 bit), iTunes 9 (64 bit), iPhone 3GS = CRASH!

I have just bought a brand new Sony Vaio laptop with Windows 7 (64bit), 500Gb of disk space, 6Gb RAM, multi-core processor etc etc. I've installed the 64bit version of iTunes and transferred over my iTunes library (about 35Gb worth).
When I connect my iPhone 3GS, iTunes sees it no problem and starts to update it (my playlists only copy about 10Gb of music over + some photos, videos and podcasts - iPhone has about 10Gb out of 32Gb free after sync). But iTunes then carries on displaying the message "Syncing iPhone..." in the top window and if I look at the performance monitor whilst this happens, the memory usage goes up, and up, and up steadily increasing until all 6Gb is used with 100% CPU usage, and the PC eventually runs out of resources and stalls/crashes, without the Sync ever completing.
If I reboot and repeat the process, cancelling the sync half way through, the CPU immediately comes down, and the memory too.
Am I doing something daft here? I've tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling, making sure I used the 64bit link from the iTunes download pages, but this happens every time.
Has anyone else seen this issue, or know what it is?
The PC is fully patched, has MS Security Essentials installed, nothing else is running at the time, and the iPhone is using the latest OS version.
PLEASE HELP!!

Hello again.
Yes, I've removed all the Sony Bloatware, including all the audio and video scanning processes.
When I look at the processes running when the problem is occuring, it is iTunes.exe taking up all the CPU and memory. Very little else appears to be affecting things.
You're probably familiar with the sequence of events when syncing - iphone is detected (pop up message from Windows about transferring photos), syncs music and photos and videos and apps, then returns to generic "Syncing Pete's iPhone 3GS" message, (usually the last thing before it says "Sync complete" and then sits there - this is when the processor goes to max and RAM steadily increases.
I've checked the Sony website and downloaded all updates and installed.
Does anyone know what iTunes is doing in this last bit of the Sync process?

IPhone 3GS crashed, What can I do?

First of, yes I know, I still have an iPhone 3GS!!!!
Anyway, today I just recently updated it to IOS 6(Which I love the new layout). After a few hours of using it, I turned on my music and started temple run. It crashed! I've played temple run and listened to music, it ran fine.
And so now, it just shuts off, keeps on doing. It'll sit on the black screen with the Apple Logo for the longest time, then it'll go black and go back to the logo and so on. It made it to my home screen CRASHED AGAIN and I'm back to the apple logo for a bit, black screen apple.
All it does is just flash me the logo turns off and so on!
This is the SECOND TIME I've had an problem with the phone!(It's a new one they gave me after my first problem). I'm tired of the problems,and it's starting to leave a bad taste!

Hello,
I'd strongly recommend a restore, from scratch for the phone. Don't restore from backup, do a fresh restore. The problem should go away then, if the cause is from software corruption. Let me know how it goes, and if the problem still persists, let us know!
Thanks,

i have a iphone 3gs running lastest software on lastest itunes version. when i sync my iphone when it gets to the music itunes crashes halfway through syncing songs. i tried uninstalling itunes 3 times, restarting phone. restarting computer, everything. please help

Hi Sarah,
Is the PC showing a blue screen after connecting the iPhone? If it does the information in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502 may help.
Try updating any Logitech QuickCam/Webcams, Lexmark scanners, or built-in media card readers that are attached or built into your PC.

IPod function on iPhone 3GS crashing since music purchase

Hi,
I have updated my iPhone 3GS with OS4 and after purchasing a new song in the iStore, the iPod function no longer works.
When selecting the iPod app, the screen opens and then shuts down about two seconds later.
I can no longer access my iTunes, please help! Thanks

I am having exactly the same problem, tried to buy song through Itunes at weekend, only for it to fail due to poor network coverage. Later try ipod function on iphone this week and seemingly it just crashes every time. Have reset the iphone 50+ times probably now. Very frustrating....

My iPhone 3GS crashes every month -- two trips to Apple store

I just completed my second trip to an Apple retail store in the last month. Both times I walked in with a crashed iPhone 3GS that they insisted was fine and needs an operating system upgrade or back-up. The retail store genius today said she has to reinstall and back-up her iPhone 3GS every 2-3 months. My original iPhone, which my fiancee now uses, works perfectly and has never crashed or needed a back-up.
I travel a lot and I'm not always near my computer for back-ups to my iTunes account. I think the iPhone 3GS is faulty. I'm not sure if it's an operating system or battery problem but the two times I've brought it to an Apple store, more than one employee insisted the phone is fine and that I hadn't charged it enough or I need to back it up or re-install the operating system.
I'm so frustrated with this device that I'll recommend to others to wait for the next version of the iPhone or buy another phone.
Is this a common problem? The Apple Store employee indicated it's a common problem which reminds me of the Xbox 360 red rings of death problems, which has happened to every unit of every person I know.

Iphone 3GS update to iOS4.3.3 - stucked at unlock screen

Hi,
I got a 1.5 year old iphone 3GS which I updated to iOS 4.3.3 last week. Everything was fine with the restore process, got all my data, apps and music back on the Phone.
However 1-2 days after the update the iPhone went into a endless loop when trying to type in your unlock code. Actually the screen jitters a little bit, no keys are accepted, you can see the "activity wheel" spinning in the background, the only way out is reset.
I am not finished testing all possibilities (i.e restore again without any new apps, remove SIM card, remove unlock code, stop all background apps..) but I am surprised to find such a severe bug where I cannot be sure about a SW or HW bug??
Anyone else with this error?
Cheers, Emilia

Found the culprit by myself. Out of some reason the database for old SMS messages got corrupted. I could not send any SMS and any message coming in crashed the phone
Another new backup restore resolved the issue.

Iphone 3gs crashed after installing new ios update

Please help. I just installed the newest ios update to my daughters iphone 3gs. It installed successfully, i thought. Then about 10 minutes later it said verifying update. It went off and now tries to come back on and the apple icon flashes for a few seconds and goes back off. I have tried a hard reset (both home and off buttons held down) and it does the same thing:( Please help me!

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
If no joy... Perform a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

IPhone 3GS crashes with iTunes 9.0.2

Hello,
I have a iPhone 3GS with latest 3.1.2 firmware and on my Macbook Pro I have iTunes 9.0.2 installed. Every time I connect my iPhone to my Macbook and load iTunes, iTunes just seems to hang with the spinning beachball and says in the dock application is not responding. If I wait around 10 mins or so it will come back to life and work fine after until the next time I restart my Mac. This happens to me everytime.
Is there a workaround fix to this bug?
Thanks

A couple of things you can try:
Repair permissions: Disk utility app>Select your hard drive>repair permissions.
1) create another id on your computer - logon with that id and bring up itunes and sync your phone.
2) logoff and log back on with your real id - bring up itunes and sync the phone.

IPhone 3GS Crashes (gets Black Screen with White Apple Logo) Mid Phonecall

For the past week, when I make a phone call and use the speaker, after the call has lasted between 8 and 12 minutes; without warning, everything goes quiet and I get a black screen which displays the white Apple logo (the same as is displayed when you reboot your phone).
After a while, the phone comes back on, I’m not required to enter my SIM Pin and everything seems to work fine(ish) from then onwards.
I have done a reset, restore and resync in iTunes, but this still happens.
It does not seem to matter if the battery is 100% charged or not! I have tried a few battery recalibrations too!
I’ve also noticed a slight sluggishness since the upgrade to iOS4 (for example, when you receive a text message, click to view, there is a noticeable delay where the screen is blank (you can see the lines where messages should be) and then they appear/message opens).
Any ideas?
Cheers in advance.

Hey Mac Beep Beep,
As did many out there on iOS4 release day, I plugged my iPhone into the PC, iTunes fired up, the software upgrade was found and installed.
Three iPhones updated in my household, all the same model (3GS 32Gb) and yet none of the others have had the same problems as mine.
On top of having the reboot during phonecall issue, my calendar (historic and future) was wiped, birthdays were added to the calendar from the information held in contacts however some (not all) were showing as a day earlier then they should be (even though they are correct in the contacts entry).
Just to clarify, when I tried to reinstall a verified version of the legacy backup (3x), I used iTunes to reset iPhone, re-active iPhone and restore said legacy back up. This failed in a spectacular way so I had to go back to an iOS4 back up.
Note: I had the problem of phone rebooting mid phonecall before I attempted a rollback to 3x.
Any further advice/ideas?
Cheers
