**wiachy** · 08-15-2008 04:34 AM

was wondering if there is a program that has a 1 click to revirginize or to do whatever it is i gotta do in order to get the phone back. this is the first generation iphone and it was running 1.1.4 firmware, my damn sister screwed it up and im trying to get it working for her. thanks for any help!

What exactly did your sister do?
What exactly is the problem?
"revirginize / Virginize" is a wrong word to use for an iphone that ran 1.1.4 fw

Well, I don't know what his story is, but I'm in a similar boat...kinda. Anyway, I have a 1.1.4 jailbroken (via ZiPhoneGUI) with a bunch of apps on it. I recently changed the name of an app, then rebooted and now I'm stuck on the apple logo screen with a super slow spinning wheel. I CAN still SSH into it once the spinning wheel is there, but I cannot enter restore mode, dfu mode, or anything! PLEASE HELP!!! Any suggestions from anyone!!??

#1 - don't ever use ziphone again.
#2 - you should be able to put the iphone in DFU mode. Search the forum.
#3 - once in DFU mode, restore with firmware 1.1.4 (this will wipe everything on your phone)
#4 - use iLiberty to jb/act/unlock your iphone
#5 - read the sticky post on iLiberty so you know how to use it.

If you really really cannot put iphone in DFU mode, you can try to connect the phone to computer while it has the spinning wheel. If the computer can detect the connection, you can use iLiberty to put the phone in DFU mode.

i DLed iLiberty, and tried to do what you said, but the iphone just keeps this on the screen....

WITHOUT the "slide here" or anything, just the itunes logo with the usb cable. iLiberty doesnt even recognize that the iphone is connected either

that picture is exactly what you should get after the restore.
the slide to emergency is on that picture.
You need to use iLiberty to jailbread & activate that phone

just tried it and iLiberty starts the process but end up doing nothing saying there is an error.

now the phone is back to just having the itunes logo and the usb cable with NO slide bar. >.<
