Restore jailbroken iPhone 3GS?
I have an old 3GS that was jailbroken, and when i restore to the new iOS 6, my phone stuck at activation screen, no matter how many times i try to activate, it just didn't work, when i see on itunes, it say there's no sim card on my phone even tough there's a sim card there
Try holding both the home button and power button until it does something.
Maybe it is because the software is way too new for the OLD hardware of the iPhone 3GS. Plug it in, restore from iTunes.
Maybe put it into DFU mode (or recovery mode) and then restore it. (Google it if you don't know how)
Um. Throw it away and buy an andriod. Naah jokes, try reinstalling ios6(I though it was only available for iPhone 4, 4s, 5), or you could put your iPhone into recovery mode and recovery the iPod through iTunes. Otherwise sim could be broken or damaged try using a different sim card juts until you activit your phone.
- Why can't I restore my jailbroken iPhone 4? I jailbroke my iphone 4 using redsn0w 0.9.10.b6. This was a semi tethered jailbreak and i have turned my phone on and off. I now want to completely remove the jailbreak by restoring my iphone. But iTunes brings up an error- 'firmware not compatible'. I was wondering how i can get past this? (by the way i'm trying to remove it because it no longer works when i download the jailbreak tool- as i deleted it ages ago)
- What can I do to restore my Unlocked & Jailbroken iPhone 3g? I recently got the phone. I tried to erase everything on the phone while it was near death, and I think it died while doing so. It then went into recovery mode. I tried to put it into iTunes to restore it, but that keeps failing too. The phone has a custom firmware, and I have no idea where or how to get the firmware to properly restore the phone to. Any ideas?
