iPod ipod nano 5th gen stuck in apple boot cycle

Ok so I am starting to love macrumors more and more. There seem to ALWAYS be someone that can fix just about any apple related problem out there.

Anyways I have a Nano 5th gen. I left it plugged into my computer to charge while I was at work. When I got home and unplugged it, it worked fine till I turned it off. that's when the trouble started. After trying to turn it on again it will load to the apple screen then back off and repeat that cycle over and over.

I can get it into DFU mode but then itunes don't recognize it

I can also get it into diagnostics mode if that matters any

any ideas?

no go it didnt work. But however. I had bought this ipod of craiglist. I called apple and its still under warranty. Im getting it replace for a hardware defect
