    Try placing the phone into DFU mode like this:

    1. Itunes open, phone plugged in, phone off.

    2. Hold the POWER button for 5 seconds.

    3. WITHOUT letting go of POWER, now hold the HOME button for 10 seconds (both held).

    4. Let go of POWER, CONTINUE to hold the HOME button until Itunes recognizes the phone (usually around 15-20 seconds).

    Restore. Hopefully.

    Did you try DFU mode? Change usb port and a different cable.

    Yes ive tied DFU mode and thats the only way it will recognize it,
    But after i do DFU mode in one usb port i have to switch ports...
    And i only have one cable.
    MY computer wasnt recognizing it.. but i think if i wouldnt of tried to restore fromt he iPhone everything would be fine...
    im stuck on this one; i really am.

    You can "trick" Itunes by using Quickpwn.

    Run Quickpwn like you normally would....when you get to the point of placing the phone into DFU mode and quickpwn ACTUALLY STARTS...the screen on the iphone will turn COMPLETELY WHITE......

    AS SOON AS THE SCREEN GOES WHITE.....KILL/CLOSE QUICKPWN IMMEDIATELY.

    If done right, the screen on the iphone will remain white.

    Now, go to Itunes and restore.

    Think of it as DFU's big brother.
