try to put it into DFU mode(http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034) and restore. If that doesn't work return it to an Apple store
On a side note, did you try to jailbreak it, if not how did that happen?

"An Ipod has been detected, But it could not be identified properly, Please disconnect & reconnect"
is it new? if not call apple or go to an Apple store, explain your problem, and they should replace it
this is CERTAINLY not something u did cuz you didnt jailbreak it (or thats what you say) i would return it to the apple store like others have suggested.
its way out of warranty and it has not been jail broken mkay
it all appears to be the screen, as I have managed to restore the touch, and it is seen in itunes, and i can see the os on the phones screen beneath all the wavey lines.

did it drop at all? thats what it might be.
From my experience, there is nothing you can do. I'd suggest contacting apple and making sure on that before chucking the device in the garbage. I had similiar problem with a different device and it turned out that you have to replace the screen's display chip (circuit) and the paper (ya there should be a paper) to fix this problem.
Unfortunately for you, since the product is out of warranty i'd suggest contact apple to make sure that nothing can be done, if something can be done then great, and purchase a new one.
