I need help please iPhone stuck
Hey I am recently a new member and I cannot seem to find an answer to my problem.
I have an iPhone 3g with 2.2.1 on it
I tried to jailbreak using QuickPwn and i must have mess up somewhere because it just got stuck at the Pineapple logo when it was all finished jailbreaking.
I have tried a few different things to get it going. I've tried restoring it using itunes. And ive also tried holding the home button then connecting to the computer, and itunes still doesnt read my phone.
Could somebody please help me out here it would be greatly appreciated!

You need to place the phone into DFU mode and then restore in Itunes. DFU mode:
1. Itunes open, phone plugged in, phone off.
2. Hold 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 phone in "recovery mode" and asks for restore, usually about 10-20 seconds.

Its not working man. I read earlier that i should delete itunes and re install it, so i did. Now when i try to force restore my phone, when it connects it makes a sound on the computer like its connected but it makes the noise twice and doesnt read the phone...any ideas?

Try another USB port, reboot the computer.
Im not sure why its not connection, but the method I explained WILL restore the phone....once you get the connection issue resolved.
