    Default iPhone 4 won't boot, apple logo flashes on and off!

    Hi, my friend gave me his iPhone 4 to jailbreak for him. When I plugged it in to my pc the apple logo came on for about 4 seconds and went off for 3 and back on again for 4 etc, so i unplugged it and tried to switch it on but it wont work so I tried putting it in to dfu mode and restore and update in iTunes, I tried jailbreaking it with (4.3.3) the new redsn0w and it came up on the iPhone screen and said downloading jailbreak files and the a bunch of White writing came up and the phone rebooted and did the apple logo thing again. Please help.

    I have tried 4 times to restore it via iTunes and nothing, I have tried to jailbreak it as well but nothing. How do I get out of this bootloop?
