3g Rebooting
I was trying to jailbreak an old 3g so I could unlock it and then sell it. But then, I decided I needed to reset it first. So I started to restore it on iTunes, but it was taking forever to download ios 4.0.1 (which it made me do
) So I tried just going to settings>general>reset>Erase all content and settings
After maybe 20 minutes of loading (It said it would take a while), it went to the apple logo. Then after a few minutes of that, it went to the respringing logo with the apple. Then the screen went blank. Now it's back on the respringing logo along with the apple logo. It won't load. Is this phone screwed?

Just follow a guide normally even if it is in a boot loop, just keep playing with it until you get it.
