Can I update to iOS 4.3 firmware on the iPhone 3G?

What is the big deal about a 5 year old phone becoming obsolete? yes it was expensive.. so was my first big LCD 5 years ago now that's obsolete with LED smart TVs it's the way technology advances. If we all kept iphone 3 we would not know of the new technological breakthroughs which we see in new devices like Retina screens for true HD (let alone the fact the company would go bust if no one bought their products). How is your camera on the 3g? What about the photos in the dark? Is Siri good on the 3g? (because it lacks the hardware that wasn't produced back then, before you blame apple). Good wifi speeds on a 3g?

Get with the times, man up and invest or shut up.

There should be something done with apple coz what's the point in buying an iPhone 3g when it first came out only to find out that apple is not now supporting it anymore
And you can not use the phone for what you paid all that money for.
It's about time apple started to support the ppl that supported apple in the earlyer days not just the ppl that buy the new phones

idiot 3g at last end to bin haizzz...waste a wages...danm!!

I want my phone upgraded to 4.5

JUST TELL ME NOW COMPUTER

hi i ve iphone 3g with ios 4.2.1 and i m not able to download any apps , every tm error comes not comp with this ios pls download ios 4.3......bt how to upgrade 4.2.1 to 4.3. no updates in itunes

pls help me

I had to get my 4s repaired, using old 3g now, all the apps work, just cant update them, facebook works, there is nothing that does not work.

I was given an older iPhone 3G in Feb. 2013 by a friend who had upgraded. It took me a week or so to get it unlocked and working on the WalMart Family Mobile plan, but once I did, it works just AMAZINGLY well! Maybe I am just not too picky about so many apps, but I have Pandora working fine, some utilities, some games, a few books and yes, even Facebook working on this 3G. You just have to access Facebook Mobile through Safari, not the Apple FB app - and it works perfectly.

Yes, most apps I try to download from the Apple store won't work, but with patience, I always find one or two that gives me what I want - you just have to be persistent. I am thrilled and happy to have been blessed with this. I am saving to buy a 4 when I can, but so far, this 3G is working great!

I hope a genius creates an OS that could replace the IOS of Apple & completely run this iPhone 3. It may be soon!

Hi all. I had the same problem with a 3G I was given the other day, but got all the "old" apps from another PC and copied them over to the /Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications directory on my laptop with the authorizations for my machine from my children (the apps were theirs). Then thru iTunes just started loading them with no problems. Hope this helps and more knowledgeable folks can fill in the gaps.

this is my first "smart phone" and it is anything but. i know it is older but that is no excuse for apple leaving it behind. for what it is worth this will be my first and last iphone. android up.

WTF so meaning to say iPhone 3g is just a garbage compared to iPhone 3gs tsk I'm so unlucky for getting this iPhone 3g blah blah blah I can't even download any nice apps . I'm really disappointed for buying this shit off Uhmmmmm Can we request to realease the version 4.3 ?? Since were all using iPhone 3g plllllsssssss release the version 4.3 we really want it

for the people here who say that iphone is shit.. and the apple company.. i had many iphones all versions beginning from the 2g.. .. before i buy 5s a say i try samsung s4 and the android i was curious.. what can i say.. after 2 week i selled.. i will never buy again not even the phone is not enough good.. but the android is a laggy bullshit ..a lot of phones use the android.. it lags.. have to touch 2 -3 times to react.. even on the s4.. ... samsung will never will be better than an iphone.. and android will never beat ios .. the problem is that a lot of idiot people dont see the small details that makes apple better than all.. and cant see the differences..
