I just restored normally and wanted to jailbreak again using iActivator. iActivator got stuck and then i had to force quit after 45min. Then I had to restore again using iTunes. It seemed to go all right, but now, every time I start up the iPhone i get a boot into what seems like the terminal of the iPhone (black background, white text), with the bootup messages zipping by (far too fast to read without a cam). Then, after 4 secs, iPhone reboots and starts all over -> Startup (terminal) -> Reboot -> Startup (terminal)...

If anybody has an idea on how to solve this, please post below...

When mine starts up i get the iTunes to start up and then when it looks for the iPhone i get an error message as ....

iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "iPhone" Unknown Error Occurred (OxE8000023)


if anybody knows about this error message please help....How can i restore my iPhone to factory default.

I'm having the exact same problem as you Sassaman -- iTunes 7.4 and iActivator and now my iPhone is scrolling text everytime I turn it on. Restoring doesn't fix this either.

Is your phone hw unlock?

No hardware unlock on mine. Seems to be an issue with activating with iActivator or iNdependence and iTunes 7.4 apparently.

no hw unlock. tsim.

I have this same problem too and was trying to get the turbosim to work. iActivator quit unexpectedly and now I am stuck with the scrolling command line loop.

Restore won't work, and I think it is a problem when it is trying to restore the iphone firmware, not the software.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

yes, it seems to be the firmware.
