Stuck In Loop In Restore

I was given a 8GB i phone - I used Ziphone to unlock the phone and everything was working.

Then I did  a really stupid thing, when I went into i tune I upgraded and it has I think bricked my i phone.

My phone is stuck in a loop in restore.  I click restore and go through the process and it then tell me that my sim is no recognised.  Then it tells me I need to restore etc etc.  I have tried to upload an old firmware because as far as I can see I have the 2.0.0 version on my iphone.  When I tried I get a error code 20.

I have tried various jailbreaks but because it is stuck in restore it is not finding my phone, even though it is on i tunes.  I am in process of trying to let the phone run totally out of charge.  I am running windows XP.  I have also tried a hard and soft reset pressing the keys etc.

Can any please help me:(

First off, ZiPhone sucks.

Try upgrading to the latest firmware, 2.0.2 and use quickpwn to jailbreak it

Re: Stuck In Loop In Restore

big_smile Right if anyone else has this problem this is what I did that solved mine anyway.

I downloaded QuickPwnRC3, bootloaders (you will need BL-39 and BL-46), Pwnage Tool.  I then downloaded every firmware from beginning to end.  Whilst it was stuck in restore I keep pressing restore and the shift button on windows to get up a different window and selected the firmwares until one loaded without me getting an error.  This was painstacking long but I got it.  May i suggest you download everything on your desktop so they are easy to find. Anyway once I got it to download the firmware i started the quickpwnRC3 program, it is so easy they talk you through it.  Hope this helps.
