    I think I just had this problem last night. I just installed something from Cydia that required a reboot, and when it tried to reboot it got stuck in this loop that it would just show the silver apple for a min or so then turn off.

    To fix it, I held the power button until it came on and tried to boot, then I held the home and power button until it shut off, waited ~4sec, then released the power button while I kept the home button pressed. This was all done while it was plugged into my computer. This sent my phone into DFU mode, where I restored it like normal. Now its fine; I'm not sure what happened, but restoring from DFU mode is the only thing I could get to work.
