press home and power button together for 1 minute. Phone will shut off. Afterwords, do DFU mode ! Then restore. The brick will break and it will work again! :p

also have the same problem as described

I sometimes manage to put it in DFU mode, but I always get an error 6 on restoring.
Correciton: it never starts the restore per say, iTunes just unpacks de firmware, says it is waiting for the iPhone and then gives an error 6

sorry for the late reply, I have some things going on. If I were you I would use a older version of iTunes as many are having issues using iTunes (the newest one) getting in to dfu mode

**rugburn** · 07-30-2008 09:08 PM

Yes that is correct, use old version of iTunes....7.5 or 7.6 i used 7.5 and it worked

after i fixed it i installed 7.6.2.9

Is the phone plugged in via USB when it's looping like that? Have you tried plugging it in to the computer, going into recovery mode and restoring?

**truckdiver** · 07-31-2008 07:36 AM

he's only in a loop when he's off the usb cable.
when he's plugged in i only have the next screen usb cable > white arrow > itunes(text) >itunes logo
itunes pup up when i plug in the iphone ore when i set the iphone in dfu mode, but he don't appears in itunes so i can't recovere it
