i think i bricked it.

i tried fixing it using ibrikr.

what happened is..

i jailbreaked my iphone, and then decided i needed more music on it then there was. it was synced with a friends library, so i wanted to wipe it and sync it with my own. i tried to sync and got the errror "the disk could not be read from or written to" so i decided to restore factory settings. i got an error, and the iphone went into recovery mode. i tried restoring firmware 1.1.1 (what it was before all this happened), i tried to "restore and update" and i tried restoring to 1.0.2 as most tutorials recommend. nothing ever works, i always get an error and the iphone stays in recovery mode




PLEASE HELP!

all i did is jailbreak and i refuse to give up hope and you seem to be the only one who can give me a chance of having it functioning by tonight. what were you saying about turning it off?
 
i think that 1.1.1 isn't compatible with itunes 7.5, i tried downgrading to 1.1.1 and got an error message too, with my macbook and i got that same recovery screen, then i restored to 1.1.2 with itunes 7.5, it works now (you just jailbroke it right, not unlock?)

lowering itunes wont do anything oh try idemocracy to jailbreak try jailbreaking it with idemocracy and google is your friend and try restoring from there it can make it downgrade i thing just try
 
well, im not super experienced, its just that i was trying to jailbreak my phone yesterday, and i realized that a big problem is 7.5; if you're trying to restore to 1.1.1, then yes, downgrade to 7.4.2
