Hi.
I've been trying to jailbreak my iPod (specs in my sig) I tried blackra1n, but it did the thing where I would have to make it rain every time I turned it on, so I retried PWNage tool and it worked. I got as far as the custom ipsw file was made, but then I ran into a problem - iTunes won't let me restore to it - error 1604. I really want to jailbreak again, so can anyone help?
***ALSO!***
I have access to ANY iTunes version 7.4+ (7.4 - 9.0.2)
THX.

If I'm reading correctly, your blackra1n jailbreak was a tethered one—you got the "connect to iTunes" logo every time you rebooted? I'm guessing youhave a 3G Touch, since those are the only ones with a tethered jailbreak.

Unfortunately, that means your iPod isn't compatible with PWNage tool :( Your ONLY option for jailbreaking right now is blackra1n. There have been rumors of an untethered jailbreak for 3G Touch, but nothing has come out yet.
