IPhone 4 recharges if turned OFF but wont charging if ON
The 1st tragedy was my Dock Connector & Loud Speaker Buzzer were burnt bcoz of overnite charging. 1st scenario was, I slept over my iPhone on my bed. My phone slips under my body while im sleeping along the night & i guess is overheats along d nite. On the next morning i smells burnt toxic gas & i realized that my dock charger cable were merely MELTED, same goes to my Dock Connector. But thank God that my phone was 100% charged and still ON. After that I tried to recharge it again just to test it, & its NOT CHARGING & my iTunes dont detects my phone. So then, that was d last 100% battery dat i used my phone b4 my phone went DEAD.
After dat, i replaced d damaged Dock Connector & Loud Speaker Buzzer coz i assumed dat my phone was fine other than these 2 damaged parts. Since my battery was 0% & d phone was OFF, so I tried to recharge it using d newly installed parts, and IT CHARGES!
BUT! after 4-5% of charging, usually most iPhones will turn ON automatically and it STOP CHARGING! and my phone starts to GETS OVERHEAT on d motherboard side! It seems that my iPhone ONLY CHARGING IN TURNED OFF MODE! After d 4% drained completely, it will charges until 5% & stops charging again when d phone turns ON automatically!
Then i tried to replace using another battery dat have some amount of charges, my phone turns ON and functioning NORMALLY. But IT WONT RECHARGES & SYNCS when i connect with the cables & it starts getting overheats again. But it charges if it turned OFF. I assumes dat it was not either d Dock Connector nor Battery was d problem.
So I suspects dat d Motherboard was damaged bcoz d Liquid Damage Indicator on d damaged Dock indicates dat water was entered d phone, & d motherboard gets overheat while tries to recharge.
But if d motherboard was damaged, how come my phone still fuctioning normally if using a charged battery? I tried to make a Call, 3G Surfing, Play Music etc & it all works fine!
After doing some researchs, now i suspects dat d Power Management Unit IC was damaged. It iz bcoz dat it gets overheats specially on d PMU IC part.
So i sent my phone to replace d PMUIC, & i still waiting & hopes dat it is d last resort to my phone problems...Please attempt to post in something approaching English, or your own language. These posts are read worldwide, and I find your post almost impossible to interpret, and I am English. "dat it is d" and "it iz bcoz" is incomprehensible to most.

hi i need sum help plzzz, iphone 3gs blackscreen and tryed evrything but wont kick out of dfu mode , much apreicated plz, it just happen wen i was restoring the screen is balck but wen i restore it from itunes it says erorr 1600 and itunes does not reconise the phone , i have tryed eveything bt still no luck , I NEED UR HELP PLZZZ ,its my disabled daughters thank you
Anyone on this forum can correct me if I am wrong. I am not judging you, but to my knowledge the iTunes error 1600 usually affects products that are jailbroken. again I am not saying that your iPhone 3GS was jailbroken. my only advise off the top of my head to assist you is to download the recent IOS firmware online. I know it is not the the #1 advised option, but it is the only option you have unless you wish to bring it to the Apple Genius bar and see if they can replace the phone or fix it themselves.

I m having problems with both my iphone 3gs and 4 when my cellular data is on and my battery is fully charge but out of suddenn it will shut off can i know how can i troubleshoot this issue thanks
simply try doing a back up and restore
when going thru the activation screen, select SET UP AS NEW and then test your device. if it is not shutting down then it could be 1 or more apps tht have been downloaded wch could be affecting the device
you will then need to follow the process of eleimnation, meaning add 2 apps and then monitor your phone, if nothing happes then add another couple of them and then check
good luck !! -
My iPhone 3GS battery loses at least 30% charge when off for at least an hour
My iPhone 3GS battery loses at least 30% charge when off for at least an hour, I took it in to an apple retail store at the end of 2010 and they told me it was fine but advised I restore and set up as a new iPhone which I did, it got better for about a month then went back to normal losing battery. I have no hardware coverage left and my specs are: iPhone 3GS 16gb IOS 4.3.3 white. I have had it since December 2009.
I'm afraid I don't. I don't know if the phone is still within warranty. I don't know which country you are in. I don't know what third party repair companies charge where you are.
Hang on - I do know one thing: if your phone is still covered by warranty - it's free! -

iphone 3gs shows activation required, hooked up to iTunes and it is not recognized. Did the restore but just gets to the end and gives an error message it could not be restored, an unknown error occurred (-1). Can someone assist me in next steps please?
Instructions to get the phone back working temporary.. till there is a real fix.
1. turn off the phone
2. fire up iTunes
3. press and hold the home button, plug in the cable, hold till you get to see the recovery mode
4. iTunes will the allow to choose restore the phone back to 5.0.1 ( no other choice)
5. iTunes will then ask you to choose which previous backup to would like to recover.
(note: please do not reboot your phone unless necessary, i realize at times after reboot, it goes back to sq1) -

I have just rceived an upgrade to an iPhone 3GS. Now, when I visit the Store all the prices are in US dollars, not a big problem but I cannot edit my card details or contact to a UK address. I cannot see how to change this.
Hi Roger
Thank you for your reply.
My original feed is: http://casa-egypt.com/feed/
However, because I modified the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast and nothing changed, I redirected it to another feed and then I deleted this feed.
Is there any way to change the feed in itunes? The only feed I have now is http://feeds.feedburner.com/CasaEgyptStation
I tried to restore the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast but feedburner refused.
I know that I missed things up but I still have hope in working things out.
Thanks is advance.

Iphone 3Gs turns its self off when i go on to the internet
Hello,
Can anyone please help me my Iphone 3Gs turns its self off when i go on to the internet, especially when i go on to google. When i am on the internet browsing my phone screen just goes blank then i need to turn my phone back on.
This happens all the time and it gets so bad that the internet doesn't turn on and turns its self straight off.
ThanksYou need to go through the basic troubleshooting steps as described in the User Guide:
Restart phone
Reset phone (press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup.
Restore in iTunes as a new iPhone, without using a backup.
BTW, are you really still using long obsolete iOS 3.0 as your profile states?
Is your phone jb or hacked? In that case, SOL. -
