My Iphone 3gs is suddenly dead.

I looked at it to see if what time it was and put it on the table. When I picked it up 30 minutes later it wouldn't respond at all - totally dead. Plugged it into the computer, but still dead.

You may want to walk through this article and see if it helps.

  • I have an iphone 3GS and suddenly am getting a "storage almost full message" even though I have 1.4 GB of free space. Now I cannot text.  How do I trouble shoot this?

    I have an iphone 3GS and suddenly am getting a "storage almost full message" even though I have 1.4 GB of free space. Now I cannot text.  How do I trouble shoot this? I recently upgraded to version 6.1.3 if that helps.

    When you sync using iTunes on your computer, do you see a lot of "Other" at the bottom of the iTunes Summary Page for your iPhone?  If you do, try a "Restore iPhone ...".  That should help.
    Hopefully that would do it for you.  If not, the next (more drastic) step would be to restore again as above, but choose "Restore as New" and then manually sync.  Omit any apps that might be suspcious in their space use (primarily Game Center apps).

  • My iphone 3gs is totally dead and not charging if I will connect to power connector too

    My iphone 3gs is totally dead and not charging if I will connect to power connector too
    It shows only the battery charging sign when I will coonect to power connector and press menu button. But if I will put it for whole day or night too , It is not charging.
    Please tell me what I can do.
    I am so frustate.
    Please help me.
    Thanks

    Are you currently plugging it into a computer? If so, try plugging it into a USB power adapter. It's possible that you're trying to charge it from a low-power USB port, and that's not enough to sustain your phone and get it charging.
    If you're still unable to get it to charge, schedule a visit with your local genius bar at apple.com/retail

  • Is my iPhone 3GS's battery dead?

    Is my iPhone 3GS's battery dead?

  • IPhone 3GS just went dead - what do I do?

    It's not responding to plugging it in to the wall or Mac. Is the battery dead? How do I fix it?

    Try a reset.

  • My iPhone 3gs has suddenly stopped showing my new emails

    This just started the last couple of days.  It says it is checking for mail, but doesn't have the moving circle in the top left corner and nothing new ever shows up.  Any idea what's going on?  All my other apps seem to be working fine and updating.

    Thanks Lawrence
    I omitted to say that it only occurs when the screen is locked - if I'm looking at something on my phone when an sms or email arrives, the phone 'notifies' me with a sound but doesnt do it when its screen is locked. Email messages and sms's (texts) still arrive but I get no sound to tell me they have.
    The MUTE swith is in the correct place and I have tried resetting the phone with the Home and Sleep buttons several times, still to no avail.
    I have noticed on the forums that many people are suffering or have suffered the same problem but Apple are never forthcoming, of course,

  • My iPhone 3GS has dead spots on the left side of the screen, does anyone know how this problem has started or how I can fix this?

    Over the past couple of months, my iPhone 3GS has had dead spots on the left side of the screen, preventing me from using the r, d and x keys, the number 4 and the semi colon and comma keys. Does anybody have any ideas on why this has happened or any ideas that I'll be able to fix this problem?
    Just a note; I can't put my phone to sleep or turn off as my lock button isn't working, so I'm using the AssistiveTouch settings.
    Thanks.

    This has no impact on the ability to purchase a new iPhone... it simply means that the newer one will not be at a fully subsidized price.
    You could always take it to Apple and do an Out of Warranty exchange (I'm assuming the device is out of warranty) for $149 US.

  • HT4061 my iphone 3GS is dead, cannot come on.

    My iphone 3GS is completely dead.  I have charged it overnight, gtried different chargers, I tried holding switch and command button together, connected to PC, still no go.  any ideas ?

    Sounds like the battery has failed and needs to be replaced, or there is another hardware problem.

  • Iphone 3GS dead

    HELP MY IPHONE 3GS IS TOTALLY DEAD tried all no success ..

    So do I and unless its a recent purchase from O2 or whomever, you will either have to ask them to send it away which takes ages even if they agree to do it, or make a trip to an actual store.
    Its not that far to an Apple store unless you live in Stornoway

  • Volume Problem in Iphone 3gs

    I have an iphone 3gs and suddenly after sometime, the volume switches off..
    i can only play songs.. but no volume..
    but after some time, if i plug my device for charging, the volume comes up or if i play a game the volume returns.
    Whats the problem??

    How are you listening? Via headphones, then internal speaker, or a dock? If it's a dock, in some cases output is controlled only by the dock system, not the iPhone itself.

  • IPhone 3gs (with full charge) went dead in middle of playing a podcast

    My iPhone 3gs had a full charge. In the middle of listening to a podcast, it just suddenly stopped playing, and the screen went blank. The iPhone is unresponsive, no matter what buttons I press and hold. Nothing happens when I plug it into my work computer via USB (I was hoping it would cause it to start doing something...anything). The work computer doesn't have iTunes.
    Is there a chance my iPhone 3gs will come back to life once I connect it to it's home iMac, that it syncs to iTunes with?
    Any other suggestions?
    Please and thank you.
    Wayne

    Well if the battery did go dead then you cannot charge off USB...USB requires the phone to send signal to computer that it is connected so the computer knows it is there to send charge back. If it is dead, you have to charge off wall adapter.
