My iphone 3GS keeps restarting itself after I upgraded to iOS 5.01?

Hello, my brother had this same problem of the iPhone 3gs restarting cuz of the ios5. I tired enabling the 3G n dat but it only lasted for a few days them start rebooting itself again.... Try this method not sure how long it will last for but. Good so far.

General/reset.....Erase all data and settings.

On the iphone......Set up as a brand new iPhone.

Then log in with your apple i.d on your phone.

Once done, restore it from the pc and then sync ur backup with your apple I.d(if u hav 1) if u don't have back up saved it don't matter.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.

Because i know how frustrating it's been

I will try that today and hope that will fix it 🙂

this is my second iPhone with the same problem, and i can not get another one again...

thank you 😀

I really like Apple, and i think this is very special, because they never make mistakes 😀

i wouldnt think its gonna fix it, you should try to do a full DFU restore. try to search on youtube and you will see how to do it. i think thats gonna help!

Non of then works for long time!!!

This is what i found! F..k apple, these days many issues...

After changing the sim card this issue appeared for and I have tried every solusions what the guys said but non of them work! After couple of days it happens again and again :(

I think think their software engineers are just f...king around these days

The Solution is:

1- Remove the SIM card from your mobile

2- Enable the (3G & cellular Data)

3- Add the SIM card again.

4- Now .. it will working fine.

Also you can Disable the (3G & cellular Data)

that defeat the idea of internet on the go that apple advertising for iphone user

Nice to hear that solution.

Can I remove and place sim when iPhone is on or is it needed to be off?

I went ahead and restored my iPhone 3GS and set it up as a new phone today.

The problem went away. iOS 5.01.

Other solutions did not work for me.

Good luck.

Thank you - the solution is looking good and I didn't have to remove the SIM.

I have had the problem since Jan and have tryed all the solutions posted, Nothing seems to fix it after a week or so it comes back, if you turn it off problem is back straight away. This has to be a bug in the latest software and Apple should be the ones to fix it or tell us how. It is probably a checky way of getting us to replace the phone!!!

My wifes phone also rebooted. I tried the fix and it worked for a short while. If I rebooted the phone it still worked but if I turned the phone off for more than 10 minutes it would start reboting again.

I updated the phone via its self not with a PC unlike you use to have to do.

The latest updaye 5.1 was released so I ran the update via itunes on the pc instead this time. this is now in the second week and my wife turns the phone off each night and its AOK.

try doing the update via the pc/mac, works for me

Yeah, Garvey 2003 is right. I have updated also to iOS 5.1 on the realease date, and all problems are gone. It is not Necessary to use Mac/pc, because I updated without.(Software Update, in Settings)

I hope this will work for you, and never experience anymore problems with your iPhone or other Apple products.

I'm having the similar issues after updating to iOS5.1. Eariler today the phone rebooted and got stuck in recovery mode. Took me around 2 hours to get it working again. Right pain in the ***!

I tried the steps from saadalsakran sadly they didnt help 😟

My phone reboots after a few seconds of recording a video! .. sometimes just on its own but mainly using camcorder.

iPhone 3Gs 16gb - Model: MC132B - Firmware: 05.16.05 - iOS 5.1 (9B176)

I'm woundering if theres some sort of RAM leak in the new update which is casuing it to panic and reboot.

Not sure what to do next.... :\

Its gotten a billion times worst! Its totally unusable! After a minuet or two of just using the phone it restarts and doesn't start up properly so have to manually turn it off and turn it back.. takes around 7 or 8 try's before I get it to fully boot! 😠

..... going to the Apple Store tomorrow. Will let you all know what happens!

btw my 3Gs is out of warranty.. should be interesting. 😝

Had to pay £120 for a replacement!.. suppose its better then paying full price.
