[krewelement394]

you guys probably heard this a gazillion times but after 1 hour and 30 minutes of trying it myself i end up in the same exact place! ipod touch 2g will not turn on! i had it on 3.1.1 and i downgraded successfully to 3.0 i used my ipod on 3.0 for about 20 minutes then i decided to jailbrake after it jailbroke it had that pineapple running and it installed then it turned off and now it will not turn on! ive tried putting it in recovery mode... but it will not turn on at all the screen is black pitch black! the macbook will not pick it up and neither will the windows xp computer! what do i do?

ive done this so many times... it ussually wont turn on but i turn it on by putting it in recovery mode and it turns on after 30-45 secs of holding down the home and off button ive been holding it for 5 minutes and nothing! im kinda scared now....

Have you tried to put the device into DFU mode?

I would take it to the genius bar and have them look at it. If they can't get it to turn on and there is no water/damage they will probably replace it.

You should try these 3 things because my ipod is doing the same exact thing...

1.) Try plugging it into your computer with the USB cord, open up itunes, and restore your ipod.

If that doesnt work...

2.) Try plugging it into an ihome or a wall charger, the odds are, it could be dead.

If THAT doesnt work, I suggest you...

3.) Call the apple store.

Sorry if this doesnt help,
