Then the title should be "tamberine Disgrace" or "JB Disgrace"

Nothing against hacked phones, seriously thinking about JB mine so i can use the hotspot, but sounds like the issues are with the JB part not the iPhone part.
 
so nobody has a solution.

iphone is stuck in it safe mode, wont sync to computer thus unable to restore iphone.
 
I've never been in safe mode, so I don't know what to expect. Do you have access to anything, like "erase all settings"?
Are you sure you did DFU correctly? It's easy to enter recovery instead.

Yeah the screen flashed white when i entered dfu. There is still access to restore all settings in the iPhone menu I don't know if thatll help my situation
