Added (1). There's nothing on my iphone it is new restored to 4.3.5
The 3gs is an older model, and likely has trouble handling the new operating system (the 3g, for example, is capped at 4.2.1). I would suggest downgrading to a lower version. Also it might help to clear up applications, extra photos, and things you don't use, so as to have more space.
Another thing, try doing a hard reset by holding down the home and power buttons simultaneously until the screen flashes white and goes black. Then keep holding until the apple symbol comes back on, and release. This will clear up the cache, etc that might be slowing the phone down.
And while you're at it, why not jailbreak? XD. There are a lot of nice features through jailbreaking, such as the ability to make a customized os, or set the amount of memory to be reserved for system.
- Will updating my iPhone apps affect my phone speed as how updating the Operating System (OS) will? Currently I'm using the iPhone 5s on iOS 8.3 I know if I were to update my phone to the latest OS I may notice some slowdown on my phone's performance, since it may not have the "muscle" to handle certain functions. Many apps now are optimised for iOS 9 and/or the 6th generation phones. Will my 5s' speed performance slow down if I update my apps? Will the app's performance slow down?
- Why does the last percentage of my iphone battery takes so long to charge? I have noticed that the very first percentages (1-20) of the iphone battery charges very quickly, but when it comes to the last percentage (99-100) it takes like 15 minutes to charge!
- Why does my iphone 5 takes so long? I ordered my iphone 5 on Oct 5th by phone a week from today and i haven't received yet! When do i get it Please let me know and why does it take so long?
- Why does Iphone 6+ takes up battery easily? I had been using 5.5 inch android phones and it lasted few days without charging. Then I switched to Iphone 6 plus and drains the battery in 24 hours.
