iphone 2G stuck at bootneuter screen after restore

[Salan]

So I had my iPhone 2G running properly on a jailbroken 3.1.3 or jailbroken 3.1.2 (I dont remember which iOs because my little brother used it - i use my iphone 4).

One day the phone just got a popup at the lockscreen saying something like: "You cant make use this phone, you need to restore it in iTunes". So I did.

First I restored to a original 3.1.3 ipsw but I got "error 1011" at the end and the phone just showed "connect to iTunes" on its screen. So I downloaded pwnagetool and made two custom ipsw; one based on 3.1.2 and one based on 3.1.3. I tried restoring using those two and both worked just fine except one thing: the restoring process completes but when the phone is about to start for the first time it just freezes at the bootneuter screen with a popup saying "Please wait, determing current settings" then it stays like that forever. Turning it off and rebooting makes you stay at the apple or the pineapple logo screen forever.

So basically it wont boot!

Is there any fix for this or is my old friend bricked ?

Sounds like the baseband is corrupt or you have a hardware problem

Allright so assume that it is a corrupt baseband. What does that mean? Am I fukced? Is there anything I can try to fix it? I would try just about whatever cause it aint working now anyway

When this happens it is almost impossible to recover. You can try a dfu restore but if that doesnt work then you may be out of luck.
