i used quickpwn to jailbreak my phone. the phone locked up and so I went into general and went to restore it (wipe clean) and was in the apple logo screen (took about 45min) and when the bar below was complete it turned off and back on with the pineapple logo and it just is locked there. it will cycle every 15min or so but goes right back to the pineapple. it wont connect to Itunes or anything. this is a 2g 8gb unlocked phone, used quickpwn 2.2.1 the file says.

You cant do a "reset all settings" to a jailbroken phone. It will always lockup.

You need to place the phone into DFU mode and restore it in Itunes.

[devanwon]

how do you place the phone in DFU mode?

[captainjapanicq]

To put the iPhone into DFU mode so you can do an iTunes firmware restore follow these steps:

Step One
Open iTunes and connect the iPhone to your PC.

Step Two
Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time.

Step Three
After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode

Here is a link to how to....

Same thing happened to me.
I'm a moron.

Basically, now i cant even get the iphone to go into DFU mode.
would letting my battery die completely help any?


also, i have a 3g with 3.0.
