    Default Stuck in boot

    My iphone is stuck in the loop screen with just the apple. I had to restart the spring board after uninstalling something and it wouldnt restart. So i turned it off and rebooted to a never ending boot screen? what to do?

    what did you install? do you have openssh installed? can you ssh to you iPhone?
    If you do you could possibly remove it that way.

    ssh connects with your wifi.
    This reminds me of the days when people didn't enough space left to install an app. Could this be the problem?
    anybody else have an opinion?

    I know how to connect the ssh but if it doesnt recognize my phone on my laptop than i cant connect it. i have on a gig of space that i know of on my phone. I was uninstalling the app though, not installing. I might just try to let it die and than charge it again and see if that works and if not force AT&T to give me a new one. But im still open for suggestions.

    edit.

    I was thinking of jailbreaking it over again? When i open quickpwn and connect my phone it recognizes that. Should i just unlock my phone again and restore its settings?

    sometimes when I first jailbreak my iPhone I get the infappleloop. A trick which worked for me once was to just sync the phone with iTunes, somehow that broke the loop and it was fine lol.
