tonite my phone was fine. then all of sudden my signal went out and no service. after about half an hour or so, still no service. so i turned off the phone normally. but i start it up again, its stuck on the apple screen. now about two hours passed, and tried everything, i even held down the lock and home button. but now its stuck and after a while it shuts down and tries to re-boot itself. but still gets stuck at the apple screen. and it keeps doing it over and over until battery low. i tried plugging into my pc,wall, and car charger but its still does same thing. help me please!!!!!!!

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.
