After updated to iOS 5 my Iphone 3GS became generel slow.
Graphics and starting apps are slow. Some apps have now up to 10-15 seconds start time.
I thought closing the Iphone and restart clould help, but NO.
Yeah, like OS windows upstarts. 😁
Ok. processor not the same as new Iphone 4s.
I started to regret my update to iOS5.
iPhone 3GS, iOS 5
iPhone ***** WITHOUT STEVE JOB.
It's as simple as that!
Same case here, my iphone 3GS lags like ****.
Shifting to Samsung Note 2 soon.

Jesus! People on this board are so dumb! It's 3GS after all, it's not the 4s or 5! Just kill ur apps every once in a while.

Hi,
I have recently been given an iphone 3g and the current version is 4.2.1. I want to update it to a newer version as some of the apps i want cant be used without the newer ones. I have tried plugging it into my computer but thats done nothing. Do you know how i can update it??
Thank very much

iPhone 3GS is the oldest device supporting iOS5 officially. If you want to install iOS5 on iPhone 3, then I suggest you googling "How to install iOS5 on iPhone 3". It WILL be VERY SLOW tho!
Tammy_Adam's suggestion worked for me, too. Performance is still a little slower than when the phone was new and running iOS 3, but about 5 times faster than before.
Thanks, Tammy_Adam!

🙂My Iphone 3GS works again properly (with Icloud and all other features ! after update to IOS6 AND replacement of battery AND keeping running apps on background as small as possible + download APP Battery Doctor !
The main trouble has been that upgrade to IOS5 which was an very large update, demands a lot of energy from the battery. Most computers crashes due to battery failures and exhausted batteries. Therefore it is extremely important to maintain a battery in good condition and batterydoctor helps how to do it. Same for MacBooks ...
hope this info helps to mitigate all frustrations of Iphone 3GS owners (alike me)
😉
So true! But now what we have to physically go to Apple Store to oppose issue?
