huck iPod up to computer, when the apple logo appears hold the home and sleep key till the iPod turns offleaving then still held down as soon as the iPod starts and u see apple logo let go of the power button whilst still holding down home key, if done correctly you should get itunes logo with usb connection on the touch's screen.

load iTunes it will say it detected a iPod in recovery mode simply click restore and eventually when its done you'll have a fully working 1.1.4 iPod (non-jailbroken)

iPod Touch 3.1.3 HELP!!

Last night while I was doing a Cydia update, my iPod Touch froze on the screen that says "Restart Springboard." I kept pressing the lock & home buttons but nothing happed :confused: So this morning when I checked it was STILL frozen on the same screen :mad: I decided to hold the lock and menu button until it shut down. When i turned it back on, it worked fine, and nothing seemed wrong.
I no longer wanted the jailbreak so I decided to do a restore on iTunes, but it said that the device could not be restored :eek: so I went into the settings and pressed "Erase all data and Restore all settings." After I did this, the apple logo showed up and the little loading circle also showed up. but it completely froze there. All I've been doing for the past two hours is trying to put it into DFU mode, but all it does it turn off, back on, and freezes at the same spot. Although the loading circle is still moving, it won't do anything else. I really don't know what to do, and I can't send it in to apple because my father payed quite a lot of money for a 5 year warranty and he would be so upset if it was void because of this. Can someone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEE help me D: I'm desperate

to DwaejiTokkix3, if you restored your ipod to get rid of the jailbreak, apple wont know its jailbroken because its back to the factory settings and for all apple knows, the warranty is still there

my itouch is doing the exact same thing as DwaejiTokkix3. i jailbroke it about a month ago with some stupid spirit thing and my friend said to use blackra1n. ho told me i was going to have to restore my ipod. but when its in the computer and i do it, it says apple is not able to restore this ipod. I've tried the whole holding home and sleep button, it just goes back to the apple with the little circle thing, the circle is completely white, but my itouch will not do anything else. its been on that screen for over 24 hours now. and sometimes it just blinks white, then just the apple shows. its driving me insane! what do i do!?? please please help!!!!

How about do the restore thing and when on itunes it gives you 2 options click "Set up as a new ipod" so that will remove everything and im pretty sure it will remove the jailbreak too. And after if you want to jailbreak it again (assuming you won't) You can.:D

Hope it helps you!!
