Firstly, posting your cell number probably isn't the best thing to do - in addition to your email.

I'll try the video posted above, but I guess it's a lesson learnt to read carefully before jailbreaking, or just don't do it at all.

That's a caricatured Steve Jobs speaking in Russian.

Try to turn it off and then put it in DFU mode on your own.

i tried that like it wont do anything after that guy comes up have this happened to you can you tell me how to fix it please
 
Reading all your jumbled posts gives me a massive headache. First off, settle down. Second, follow the video Mouton posted. Perhaps you shouldn't have messed with your phone seeing as you sound like you have no idea what you're doing.

Huh. Then you should have NO problem fixing this.

I tried EVERYTHING to get my iPhone to work back... oh, man, WAY back on firmware 1.1.2. I was sure it was bricked.

Then I opened iTunes in Boot Camp and it was recognized instantly. :p

but wait how because is not letting me at all there is alot ive tried can you please tell me how you fixed yours please
 
Ive had this problem before when I was trying to downgrade from 3.0 to 2.2.1. I was almost in the same boat as Tallest. My MB refused to recognize my iPhone, plugged it into my mom's Dell, put it into DFU and restored. Make sure you're using iTunes 8.2.

okay two questions should i try it on a different computer??
and how can i change my itunes like how can i put it to 8.2, should i go to the itunes store
 
If i remember correctly, the Steve Jobs logo showing after you jailbroke the iPhone meant it was in DFU mode, you could try restarting the computer and seeing if it will recognize it then, if still no luck, try a different computer. If you have a mac around or know someone that owns a mac, try plugging in into it.

okay i guess ima try that but if not you know hey one out of hundreds iphones messed up i guess
 
wow you don't understand the problem is that my computer doesn't detect my iphone!!!how can i fix that??? do you know how to do that??
 
You either need to let that phone completely die or manually put it into DFU for a restore. Perhaps an uninstall and reinstall of iTunes 8.2? A defective USB cable (sounds silly, but I've read several situations where someones PC wouldn't recognize their iphone/ipod and all they did was switch cables.

A call to 1-800-MY-IPHONE might help.

Yea, somebody can SAY they know what they're doing all they want... but if they don't even know how to update iTunes then I DOUBT they actually know what they're doing when it comes to jailbreaking.

It's basically like someone saying they know how to do a fuel change but not how to put gas in their car. If you're claiming to know the 'hard' stuff but can't even do the easy stuff... something's up.
