Updated iphone 3gs from 3.1 to 5.0.1 it wont activate :( HELP ME!

it was jailbroken before also and i bought a sim card and i live in doha,qatar i used QTEL sim card but still doesnt work :( HELLLLLP!

Nothing you can do.
Discussion of jailbroken devices/jailbreaking is forbidden here.
Updating the iOS version will revert the device back to the carrier locked status it was originally built for.
Only an official unlock from the carrier will survive an iOS update.

  • My updated iPhone 3GS from 4.2.1 to 6.0.1 is stuck in restore mode

    Hi,
    I've got a problem with my iPhone 3GS, which is stuck in restore mode.
    I've done theses steps :
    Update iTunes to the last version on my Windows7
    Connect my iphone and synchronize for the first time
    Manually backup my data with iTunes (more than 4000 pictures, messages, ...)
    Accept to download and update to iOS 6.0.2 from iTunes
    iTunes backup my data once again and starts the iOS update
    When my iPhone is updated, restore process starts and craches with an "Error -10" message.
    The iPhone is fully functional but completely empty. I check this page - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 but can't find my backup.
    If I check this path \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\ or use iTunes to find backups, the only are made by itunes with iOS 6. Old backupswith iOS 4.2.1 have disappeared.
    How can I retsore my iphone ?
    Regards

  • Problems updating iPhone 3GS from 3.0.1

    I have read numerous other posts on this topic, but they have not helped me. Whenever I connect my iPhone to my Mac, I am prompted to update the iPhone software, but this has failed repeatedly, with err=-3259. I have tried connecting the Mac to my wireless router with an ethernet cable, and have also tried turning off the firewall. I have no specific antivirus software installed to turn off. I have tried restoring my iPhone, but this also fails, as the iPhone software update is "timed out" with the same error message. Any ideas, anyone?

    That's because Apple is no longer signing v3.1.3 nor any firmware other than iOS4.  You could try following a downgrade to v3.1.3, see these:

    This guide works for 3G but not 3GS, though there are some suggestions for 3GS users in there:

  • Hello, migration to iCloud is impossible because updating iPhone 3GS from v 3.1.2 to v 5.0 fails

    Hello,
    Here is my configuration
    iPhone 3 GS 16 Go, iOS v 3.1.2
    Airbook Mac OS X v10.6.8
    MobileMe account since 2009
    (all in French)
    Here is the problem
    I am trying to migrate from MobileMe to iCloud. Several trials to update the iPhone with iTunes to v5 however failed. Safeguarding iPhone content takes > 6 hours and blocks at about 10 %. Syncing iPhone and Mac is no problem. Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    Hello Boris,
    >> It implies that I can do an export of my app from the old env (Application Builder -> Export Application) and import it into my new env (Application Builder -> Import Application) and expect everything to work. Is my understanding correct?
    Your understanding is almost correct. APEX application is not only the “source code” of the application, which you get upon exporting the application from your original APEX engine. You also need all the supporting objects of the application, on the database level – tables, sequences, stored procedures, and every other database resources your application is using. Those will not be included in the APEX application export file.
    After you duplicate the APEX database environment (like the schema that was associated with the APEX workspace), you can import the application, and it all should work just fine.
    Regards,
    Arie.

  • HT4623 updating iphone 3gs from version 4.2 to higher

    Hi
    I have a iphone which has not been connected to the internet for a year and is on version 4 software but i cant seem to update it to a better version as most of my apps dont work on version 4
    Thanks

    This is the "ordernumber" it means it is a 3G indeed, not the 3Gs, and the 3G max iOS is 4.2.1.
    It can only updated via the computer iTunes.

  • In trying to update my iPhone 3Gs from v. 3.13, it apparently downloaded the upgrade, but got stuck during the backup. It backed up for over an hour, and now the green bar in the Backup window is now colorless and is showing no movement.  Any suggestions?

    I'm trying to update my iphone 3gs from version 4.2 but under settings-general there is no update link. This is probably a frequently asked question, so I'm sorry but I'm new to this.

    That is only a feature of iOS 5 or later...
    You have iOS 4... See Here...

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported, and likely has caused the problems you are experiencing.
    You'll need to go elsewhere for support.

  • I've updated my iphone 3gs from iOS 5 to iOS 6 and now I can't access the internet on 3g, can anybody help??

    I've updated my iphone 3gs from iOS 5 to iOS 6 and now I can't access the internet on 3g, can anybody help??

    I don't follow your instructions... mine goes Settings->General->Cellular and from there it's just on/off options for Cellular Data, Enable 3G, Data Roaming, etc. Or I could go Settings->General->Profile APN Carrier Settings but when I click that it just shows as verified but no Visual Voice APN or MMS Settings. If I click More Details it goes to Signing Certificate which has a bunch of parameters for unlockit.co.nz but I am unable to change anything.
    I just updated my iphone 3GS to IOS 6 and my internet (wifi and 3G), voice and text all work, but the only thing I can't do is send/receive pictures via text message. I am using At&t prepaid sim. I tried turning off the phone completely but I'm trying to avoid a complete restore.. at least until I can understand the problem better! Any help would be appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Hello everyone,
    I just updated my 3GS from iOS 5.0.0 to 5.0.1
    Since the update, Itunes says that no SIM card is detected, and the iPhone says that it cannot be activated. It also obviously does not detect any network.
    I tried restarting the phone several times, removing the SIM card several times, but it did not change anything, the SIM is still not detected.

    You do not need to keep posting the same thing over and over again.
    Look to the right side of this page at "more Like this" or do a forum search.

    Insert a SIM from a supported carrier.
    Where did the phone come from,  it sounds like the device has been hacked or jailbroken to be unlocked and updating has re locked to the original carrier. It is also possible that the SIM simply needs to be reseated or replaced.
