    Default Can't restore after failed BSD World install - Bricked?

    Tried my hand at jailbreak1.1.1. No cp or killall commands so I tried to install BSD World with WinSCP. Failed during install. Now only have connect to iTunes icon when holding down power and home keys.

    Is my brand new iPhone completely brickes? Any ideas how to get back to step 0!

    Thanks

    iTunes dosn't recognize the iPhone is connected so there is not option within iTunes to restore.

    When I hold down the power button and home button it iPhone never goes into restore mode. I've restored the iPhone to 1.0.2 at least 20 times in the last 3 days but now I can't get it into restore mode.

    Am I missing something? Is there another way to get the phone into restore mode? All I can get is connect to iTunes and apple logo.

    JedixJarf,

    You were right. My son unplugged the USB cord from the computer and pluged it into the power outlet to recharge his phone. I "assumed" the cord was still plugged into the PC!

    Thanks for the help.

    That would be kinda funny if it didn't suck so much!
