IPhone mobile Safari issue

I have an iPhone 1st Gen (I know, it's 2013 and I have an old school phone) and when I go into the mobile browser (Safari) and I type in a website like yahoo.com or google.com it dims the screen (darkens the Safari page but not the status bar, if that helps) and says "connecting" and eventually just crashes… The phone is NOT activated but it is connected to Wi-Fi. Please help.

Added (1). I can't access the App Store as it will not load… I just restored my iPhone about an hour ago but I don't have a backup for it (New phone and new computer)

I almost always use apps to view stuff on the web… Can't think of when I last opened safari.

  • Safari on iphone keeps pushing desktop instead of mobile sites? My iPhone (safari) keeps redirecting me to the desktop version of youtube instead kf the mobile version. It's really annoying, please help. Also, i would just like to add, i know that there's a "mobile version" link in the bottom corner, but when i go to my bookmark, it goes straight back to the desktop version.
  • Safari not working on iphone 4? I used cydia to jailbreak my iphone 4 and after that safari would just open for a second and then go back to the home screen. I used ifunbox to delete cydia from my iphone and it's not there anymore, but safari is still not working on my phone. Is there anything i can do? I have already rebooted my phone numerous times and this hasn't done anything.
  • IPhone safari issue? I have an iPhone and I use Safari, but I went to a website and the attached photo keeps popping up and won't go away. How can I get rid of this?
  • My Iphone was hacked, and I no longer had access to safari. I then proceeded to reset my Iphone with an old update from a few months Keep in mind I have two icloud accounts. After doing so I then reset my phone with the second icloud account( as that was the only option). Having done so, does that mean everything that was on my phone has been deleted before I reset it, or do the hacker/s still have access to important information of mine?
