Restore - now my phone wont work - not worried about losing content

Tried to change Iphone version from 4.1 to 4.2 on my iPhone 3g,
It starts but requests that I connect to itunes -itunes recognises the iPhone
but says I must use the same sim from mobile service - I have only used 1 sim
Not worried If i lose the data on my iPhone - just want it to run normal again,
HELP PLEASE!

If Apple did not replace the screen, bring it back to those people who did. Something probably went wrong replacing the screen.
If a 3rd party repair center opened the phone, Apple will not service the unit anymore.

  • I did the new software update and now my phone wont work at all and keeps saying it needs to be restored from back up

    I had my phone plugged in to my iTunes yesterday and downloaded the new software. I then went to install the new software and it crashed half way through with an error message. Then it went off completely and wiped everything. I tried to restore from back up and now it says it has restored from yesterdays back up, restarts afterwards and says it needs to restore from back up again. and just goes round and round doing that. Even if i try an earlier back up. I also tried wiping everything back to factory settings and restoring from back up and that did the same as above. Please help!!

    Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

  • HT201210 my phone says that i am not registered as developer program and now my phone wont work

    what do i do now

    If you're a developer, go ask your question in the Developer Forum.
    If you're not a developer you've stolen Apple's software and are a thief.  You will get no help here.

  • Updated & Restored now click wheel wont work

    I have an iPod Nano 2nd generation.
    It froze on me... so I followed all of the instructions.
    Charged it up. Updated software. Restored the Nano.
    Repeated the process.
    Now it is stuck on the select language screen - but anytime I click any buttons - nothing happens!
    When I restored it... everything appears normal from within iTunes - it tells me it is synching my music, allows me to name the iPod. Click wheel does work when connected to the computer either.
    HELP?
    Thanks
    Dave

    The click wheel is broken and needs to be replaced. It will also need a new battery.

  • Did ios update now phone wont work

    Help!  I just tried to do an update on my iphone 3 (which was prompted when connecting to itunes) but now my phone wont work at all.  It wont configure

    Any specific error messages?
    Try switching off your seurity software and restore the device http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    NB: using that article will erase everything so make sure you have a backup
    try restoring on another computer if this fails, and if that doesn't work either, the device needs hardware repair.

  • I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information

    I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information (it just shows a blank white screen with "iphone" in the centre".

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • I have an iphone 4s that i got last week and i set it up just using the phone. today my dad restored it as my mothers iphone so i lost all of my data. I tried to restore it as my original phone i had but i exited out of itunes and now my phone wont showup

    Did you fail to import them to your computer before restoring?
    Not good.
    They are likely gone.
    You can try restoring from backup.

  • My iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error-51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

    I was in the middle of the iOS 8 update and tried to turn my phone off (yes, I realize this was dumb) But what happened was it tried to reset. Now,  my iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error -51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

    Try a Hard Reset.....
    Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds.  Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

    The "radio" on the BB actually refers to the network connections.  Go to Manage Connections and Turn all connections on.  Let us know how it goes.

    I am seeing if I can get another battery even though I do not believe that is the issue.  It keeps giving me vdd_under which I believe is under voltage, maybe it is just a faulty battery?  It charges up like normal and functions normal (when plugged in, or above 90%) but it gives under voltage warnings and shuts down when in heavy use (using camera or going back and forth to imessage).  When just sitting idle it doesn't seem to turn off until that 55-60% mark.  It may just be a faulty battery because I feel I installed all of the other cables correctly when replacing the screen, and I don't think those connections should affect the battery anyway except for maybe the logic board cable (the 2nd cable to be unplugged after the battery cable) I guess I could clean that out as well with isopropyl just in case.
    Any other suggestions would be helpful... and I will get back to you if a new battery helps.  Thanks!
