Hi
I have tried in vain to get this to work and failed so any help would be appreciated
Firstly my iphone at moment is jailbroken using winpwn on version 2.1
It worked great until recently wouldn't connect to computer via usb and therefore wouldnt connect to itunes and wouldn't charge up using usb either.
I still used it as normal as it charged up on my ipod radio alarm and also using the car charger.
when I tried to put it into restore or dfu mode I just got Steve with his arms up saying npebea.
I stupidly went to setting erase all contents and settings.
After an hour + the phone restarted but now nothing except a small part bitten pineapple showing and wont boot into normal screen ARG.
I cant get it into recovery mode at all and I get is a pineapple and sometimes with spinning think symbol behind and then switches off and back to same all over again.It will do this untill battery runs out but I can recharge still as above.
I have held the home and power buttons to shut down and it wont
I have done the same to get into resore mode and it wont ?
I have run out of ideas ?
Please help ?

p.s I am using Windows Xp professional version 2002 service pack 2 and my iphone is 1st gen

Thread moved

I see no one has answered yet does that mean it totally bricked then ?

No m8 cant get to this stage anymore ?? as I stated in my post " I cant get it into recovery mode at all now and all I get is a pineapple and sometimes with spinning think symbol behind and then the iphone switches off and back on to the same all over again.It will do this until battery runs out but I can recharge still as above."

No matter how long you hold the home button and the power off button nothing happens. Also cant get it to shut down even with using the power off button or even with both buttons held. Normally I could force a shutdown if phone was stuck by holding both buttons for a period of time but not anymore.
What I was trying to do is switch off then hold both buttons as reconnect to pc but as said before the phone aint responding no more ??.It just has the pwned logo and also with spinning think behind for a while then switches off and back on to same sequence repeatedly Arg !!!.?
