Carl Eugen asked you to provide not only the complete command line you
tried, but also the complete, uncut console output from the command.

Getting back to your question:

What were you expecting? How did you check the resulting file? What did
you get?

I can point out several errors at this point (but still want your
complete, uncut output!)

- The command line element "-atag mp4a" is not interpreted, as you put
  it after the output file name. Your ffmpeg should have warned you as
  such:
  "Trailing options were found on the commandline."
- Copying the video stream with "-c:v copy" into an ADTS file (which
  ffmpeg automatically assumes as format when you give the output file
  the suffix ".aac") will result in an error, because video cannot be
  mapped into that file format. You are probably lucky because your 3GP
  file did not contain video in the first place. Use "-vn" (no video)
  or just omit "-c:v xxx".
- You're not just "extracting" audio, you are converting it. Without
  your complete, uncut console output, we can't say whether this is a
  good or a bad idea. Depending on what you were expecting.
