Does this work for the iPod touch 3g if the battery is dead

The case is a backup battery and works great to double my power. Once in a while because it did not want to charge together, I have charged just the case by itself and it charges and works just fine to still double the power so I think it should work as the only battery. But my battery in device still has power so I do not for sure. Hope that helps.

At his point, if you're still using a 3G like I am, you should be thinking of upgrading to an iPhone 5 now (or 6 in a month or two). Don't spend money on a 3G battery backup.

I used this for my iphone 3g, battery use perform worst when the phone was connected to this case, then when my phone was off this case. if you want to buy battery charger buy something better.

The product is for an iPhone 3GS specifically - it should fit a touch 3G since the case is the same...In theory it's possible, as it acts like plugging in a charger.It would still be better to replace the internal battery - as a faulty internal battery could lead to other issues later down the line...

Yes this does work for a apple iPod touch 4. That's what I use 1 of mine for.

This battery was supposed to work for all 3gs Iphones. !!!DON'T BUY!!! This battery came with 40% battery charge but once that was gone it never charged again. The battery did not work at all. Find a new source if possible.

Did you open the iPod application before you connected it? You have to open the app before it works with "older" iPod accessories. It may not charge the iPhone 3G if it uses a FireWire connection, but it should at least let you play the music.

Yeah, I have an iPhone 3G, and this thing works perfectly. You can get about 2-3 full charges off this single battery. I bring it with me when I travel, so I can use the iPhone to watch videos on flights and not have to worry about not having any battery when I arrive.

Now I'm really confused. I bought this for my trip as well, not noticing that it "doesn't work" on the Ipod touch 3G. I have the 64 gb 3rd generation IPOD Touch. It is working quite well. I'll keep trying it over the next week and report back if it stops working. Now I'm worried that it will die on me during my trip.

Yes it does. It has a 30 pin connector. I use my old iphone 3G with it and it keeps it charged.

battery is gone on my 5gen classic ipod and only works when plugged in to its old charger. Does not run with new classic charger. Will this drive it?

I just purchased this unit and I use it with my iPod Touch 3rd gen. It works perfectly with it. Even the remote works with it.

It should be. As long as it has the original wide iPhone plug in, it will work. My ipod touch is a 3G and it works great. If you have an iPhone 5 or higher you would need an adapter because they changed the plug end on the 5 and later.

I bought this system a couple of weeks ago and I can confirm that it DOES work with the iPhone 3G. As far as I know, everything works including charging, playing music, and using the Onkyo remote to change tracks, pause, play, etc. I was fairly surprised to learn that it actually charged my iPhone... probably the most functional dock I own - i just wish it was in my bedroom

Only if it is connected to an outlet. If it is running on its own battery it will not charge your iPod.

From my own personal experience, it does play and charge the touch 1st generation and iphone 3G. However, it does say on the website that the video out and the USB connection on the back of the dock does not work for the touch or iphone. I haven't tried it since they say it doesn't on the website. It does sound very nice. I think I bought it when the price went to $30 during the summer. I wouldn't pay the $$$ that they are charging now though.

It works very well with my iPod but I don't know what version I have (one of the earlier models) which doesn't take the charge anymore and the battery cannot be replaced according to Apple, so I bought a Gembonics external battery. I can't imagine why it shouldn't work with a iPod touch 5. Hope it helps.

My iPhone is 3GS, and it did not work. The bad point, after trying with charger my iPhone is not getting charged by original charger also.

Yes, but it doesn't appear to work as a charger (battery icon does not indicate charging). Works on my iPod 3rd generation (though the unit does not work when the car is cold).

Go on the Apple site to research the ipod model you have. You need to buy a replacement battery to the specific model.
