I have an iphone 2G on firmware 2.1. AND I know, I just learned this app is for 3.0 firmware:(
I downloaded ActivateMMS2G from Cydia and it bricked my iphone.
Now I'm stuck on the apple logo boot screen.
My iphone won't connect to my computer or anything.
So what should I do to unbrick my iphone??????

I would really prefer to not have to restore!
 
I had the same problem...

After trying over and over again (reboot after reboot), and 5 or more minutes staring at the bootlogo, i had to restore the device!

The only solution is to restore, unless you have a backup, you can restore from the backup instead.
 
Activatemms2g bricked as well

How are you able to restore if my itunes wont even recognize it? The apple boot logo just comes up then it will reboot every few mins but just to a black screen. Any info would help now thanks!
 
i have a question i have the bricked problem because i didnt have 3.0 ether but how can i unbrick with windows?

PLEASE HELP!

and if i have to restore is there any way to save my pics?
 
You can't save nothing now that's bricked. Hope u had done a backup in iTunes recently.
Click on the link I provided above to unbrick your device.
