I woke up this morning took my phone off the charger(3g, OS3.1) and checked my email as per usual. 20-30 minutes later I took my phone out of my pocket to check for a response and my phone was dead. My phone has mysteriously shut off a few times before so I thought no big deal, this time it wouldn't turn back on.
I only get a response from my phone when I plug it into the wall (not a usb port on any of my machines), my phone will display the apple as per normal bootup but it only gets that far and shuts down and becomes unresponsive(until I hit the hold button again, the process repeats).
I can manage to boot the phone into DFU, but only while it is plugged into the wall. If I try and plug it into the machine after getting the "connect to itunes" screen the phone dies in the process.
I contacted my provider (Rogers) and they promptly told me that my phone was out of warranty (by 1 month) and they would provide me with a refurbished 3g (8gb) for $450.
Has anyone experienced this behavior or have suggestions outside of canceling my contract with rogers?
