iPhone 3G wont turn on, don't charge and overheating
Hi guys. I need some help here.
My iphone 3gs wont turn on, wont charge, isn't recognized by itunes and overheats.
I've found a missing component on the board near the dock flex connector but i can't identify it.
I don't know if all problems are caused by this fault.
Can someone give a help please.

Are you sure it is the 3GS ?
picture looks more like the 3G version.
maybe you can post the number off the circuitboard ?
Because there are different version of each model.
@Oldturkey03;
picture you posted is from a 3GS, but different from the Topic Starter.
This looks like the board of the popic starter:
In this case it are 2 coils.

Update
Try to put the coils back on.
And in case they are gone, make a jumper on the place of the coil.
thought these are the data lines of the USB.
That should fix the recognition in iTunes.
Only the overheating ......
Is there more damage to the circuitboard?
Update
Maybe you have some more informatiopn on how this problem occured?
was the phone dropped?
did you use a non apple (car)charger.
do you have a multimeter available?
Maybe you can measure the voltage on the spots where the components are missing?
And then repeat the measurement with the usb cable connected to the charger/pc.

Hi, this is not an answer, I just opened mine and got a picture of what is missing. I am sorry if the pics are not upto the mark. But u can make out what seems to be an inductor coil or something. Anyway if someone can help.
