IPhone 3GS won't charge and connect to Laptop - Any solutions?
Okay, so the other night, I charged my iphone via the wall charger and in the morning, It was fully charged. I played temple run for like 20 minutes and the battery was down to 84% so I decided to charge it again but then, it won't charge! I was waiting for the "sound" or the FLASH symbol that would indicatethat it is charging but nothing appeared.
I tried connecting my iPhone to my laptop but it won't even recognize the phone, so does itunes I also tried doing a reset (Pressing the home screen and the power button at the same time for 10-20 seconds) but the same thing, nothing happened. This is really frustrating me.
So, I tried turning it off and I plugged it in via wall charge and voila! The apple logo flashed and my iPhone turned on.So, at that moment, I was hoping that it was already charging… But by the time the lock screen appeared, there was no FLASH symbol that would indicate it was charging. I decided to use all the battery that is left and drained it. By the time it finally turned off since the battery was already low, I decided to charge it again *CROSS FINGERS* After plugging it in, the BATTERY LOGO APPEARED with the flash symbol underneath it but it opened after it was charged at around 5% and it didn't continue charging, but the battery increased from 5% to 6%.
Obviously, it's not the usb cable that has a problem. My warranty has already expired last November and I'm afraid that if I would go to an apple store (I don't even know if we have one here), they would charge me a lot.
Help Please HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND A SOLUTION TO THIS?
Just buy a new one from AT&T for $1.00. Just drop your old plan.

- My Wi-Fi won't connect on my laptop but will connect to my other devices (an iPhone and iPad)? I have a MacBook Air. Sometimes it does connect but other times it just won't. It takes ages connecting and then in the end comes up with the exclamation mark or is just blank. Is this a problem with my laptop? I've tried researching the problem but have found nothing.
