Indeed it will. Give it a few hours to fully charge. Then drain it fully for at least two times then charge again - I noticed the complaints previous users where having about poor battery life, and when I did this - with my same usage patterns - my battery life improved significantly; however like Masseur stated fully charge it and don't worry about it. I didn't give it hours to fully charge initially when I bought mine.
If you FULLY power it off (pressing & holding the power for a few seconds and swiping to the right at the top of the screen) and connect it, it'll charge by first powering on the device. The screen being off (is a setting)

Hi Guys
Just bought my nice 3gs 16GIG white Iphone today 
Its well fast than the original. Quick question, does anyone know how I can make my own ringtones on my mac? or do i have to purchase ringtones only via itunes?
Thanks
Miyagi
If your iPhone is jailbroken, download MyTones from Cydia, it is very useful and very easy to use, free as well:) It lets you use the songs from your iPod library to make your own ringtones, right on your phone:)

very probably, but all you have to do if you need to get warranty is a reload of the original firmware
turn the iphone off, hold the home button while connecting the USB cable and keep the home button pressed until you see the usb cable picture on your iphone
then it will restore you iphone with the latest standard firmware and the phone will no longer be jailbroken or locked

honestly, its a 2 minute job to jailbreak and unlock
just be aware that many, including me, lose wifi connectivity but all you need to do it go to settings > general > reset > reset network settings and reboot the phone and all should be well

Not all, but most, but don't worry, resetting network fixes it, mostly:P don't worry, if something happens, you can always go back to the original firmware and have it all back, so it's nothing to worry about
