    Thats a big can of worms.
    First is your 3GS jailbroken and unlocked with which version of firmware?
    Give as much detail about what and how you did what to your phone so I can help diagnose the problem with you!

    Are you sure your firmware is 4.1 (the newest one). 4.1 cannot be jailbroken.

    Sounds like it could be a hardware issue. Still under warranty?

    Try doing a factory restore n iTunes and see if it's the same?
