Did I Brick it?
For some reason my iphone is always telling me to connect to itunes. When i do that its ok but then when i run ziphone it reboots the phone into recovery mode and itunes comes up and says that i have to restore my phone. Then this process starts all over again.
Is there a way out of this loop? Help

Run ziphone, leave itunes running in the background, and just do whatever you're doing in ziphone

Thats what i've been doing but when ziphone reboots the phone into recovery mode itunes doesn't like that and says i have to restore which leaves ziphone hanging. Do yo think there is a length of time i should leave it running?
I'm starting to wonder if my sim card got messed up up somehow?Last edited by mike84; 08-07-2008 at 08:37 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost

ziphone should take a few minutes to unlock, jailbreak and activate
Once ziphone starts you can totally ignore what's happening in itunesTo live, you have to lie

You might just want to abandon using ZiPhone for now and restore it back to normal. If regular recovery mode doesn't work your can put it in DFU and that should do the trick.

anyway, I think ziphone only works for up to 1.1.4, so that might be the problem
