Need help. I downloaded Intelliscreen X and it automatically restarted. Goes to apple logo, goes black, and then goes to a dim apple logo and repeats off an on right there. Tried to restore in DFU and Recovery mode, but iTunes says something about the build being invalid or something so I can't restore.

This happened earlier when I downloaded Winterboard, but I was able to get back to the homescreen. I can't now, I've done over 2 dozen resets. Of course this has to happen as the last thing I do for the night. What should I do?
 
Had the same issue with IntelliScreenX, I plugged my phone into iTunes, home+power button for 10 seconds then just the home button. Was able to restore after that.
 
I keep getting the same error. After extracting software, I get a message saying:

The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the request build.
 
Download the firmware from an online mirror, hold down option and click restore and restore from that.
 
Nope, that wasn't it either. I tried that earlier.

I found out what the problem was though. TinyUmbrella modified the host file. Fixed that file and am now currently restoring.

Anyways, thanks for the help.
