iPhone 3GS won't charge or reboot

Sorry, taped from Iphone 4 and realized the volume is horrible.

Phone was under 50% charge but working great. Would not charge an eventually died and now won't do anything. If you hold both home and power buttons it will show you the charge screen.

Was dropped over a year ago so that is not the issue.

Ok i learned this from my friend press the mute button 4 times up and down then press the lock and home button for 7-10 seconds then an apple pops up then connected to your computer and it will charge.

i dont get how people get their screen to look like that....do u deliberately chuck it at the curb or something? i am relentless with my iphone dropping it and it nevers been close to looking like that

your dock connector is broken, you need to replace it. you can see the battery logo because your phone still has a small charge, but can't continue to charge until you replace the dock connector.

This happened to me twice when I let the battery die, the problem with my iPhone not charging was because I used some chinese charger, and the charger didn't have power to charge the iphone from zero, it charges the iphone when it have more than 15% of battery, but it takes more than twice the time to do it to 100% compared to an original Apple charger.

If you don't have an official Apple charger my advice is to borrow one from a friend or try it out on a Apple store.Thumb up so ppl can see it

He thanxs mate but I do really reccomend a new phone it's a bit battered

Woooooooooooooow it is solved now, i had exactly the same problem

here is what you need to do:

1-restore the software using iTunes (5.0.1 is recommended) "The normal way - holding the lock and home keys..."

2- Jailbrake the phone " using redsnow.... normal way"

3- disconnect / reconnect the cable you will see the battery with red / low level again... no problem...

4- hold the lock key for 10 seconds and keep it connected to the USB for 15 to 20 minutes and it will start

Really i was surprised
