Re: Bricked or what?
 

unplug the phone from your PC,

Hold the power button for like 10-20 seconds, if nothing happens try it again (I once had this happen to me, I did this like 3 times and it turned on fine).

Let me know if this does nothing. there are still more steps we can take here, don't worry you're not bricked :)

Re: Bricked or what?
 

I know that ususally in dfu mode it shows the connect to itunes picture...mine just looks like its turned off

Re: Bricked or what?

Re: Bricked or what?
 

not always.


did you try it with the home key as well?

I have to get back to work for now, but I will get you back up and running (probably without having to erase any data) later on today. No worries.

I got the connect to itunes screen to pop up on the phone and the blackrain started and now that picture of blackrain is just stuck on my screen.... i couldnt get spirit to read it though

Re: Bricked or what?
 

OK good, now turn off the phone and turn it back on (blackra1n was supposed to do this automatically)

Re: Bricked or what?
 

it went away and the apple popped back up with the spinning load bar or whatever that is and then it just turned off and the battery charge popped up..

Re: Bricked or what?
 

charge it for a half hour then turn it on again.

Re: Bricked or what?
 

When you get it up and running back up ALL of your data, then reflash the 3.1.2 IPSW and use blackra1n again, you should be fine and ready to rock, but you've had too much funkiness not to reflash at this point.

Re: Bricked or what?
 

it came back on by iteslf ...right back to the apple and the spinning load
