    Default Help! Computer doesn't see iphone

    iPhone 4 4.2.1 snowbreeze ipws, windows xp, iTunes 10.2

    Last night I used snowbreeze to make custom firmware, installed fine, updated cydia and installed sbsettings, gridlock, perpagehtml, and now iTunes or my computer don't pick up iPhone

    Tried several reboots, reinstalled iTunes, checked apple device manager, and a new USB cord... I'm lost as what to try next

    Plug phone in, makes correct sounds, starts charging, but no iPhone in iTunes or on 'my.
    Computer' , doesn't show up in device manager either

    Ifunbox can access the iPhone tho no problem

    What other steps shall I try
    What happened?

    It had no problem seeing my iPhone for a few hours after the fresh install and cydia packages

    seemed to happen randomly ?

    Do you install anything weird?or even new?

    Try possibly going into DFU mode and then using a program to kick it out...NOT ITUNES.

    My parents didn't pay for my iPhone.

    or use tiny umbrella to enter recovery.. and then exit it.. it might work.. try reinstalling your itunes again but first uninstall itunes.. get the latest version.. it might be some issue with your iphone drivers.
