If the reboot (power and home button doesn't work u may have to upgrade. Try it again I suppose.

If hard resetting doesn't work, then allow the device to drain out until the batt dies. Screen will go black. Then try again

I'm curious…

When you attempted to jailbreak, how much charge did you have on your device?

There was someone here a while back that had a device that acted dead because they were doing something jailbreak wise with a really low charge. They eventually managed to recover.

When jailbreaking you should either have a charge above 65% in my opinion, or have the device connected to a charger.

I had a good amount of battery I don't remember how much but i was easily above 50%. Should i let the phone die and attempt to restart it then?

Ok, so when phone dies, attempt hard booting?

That's what I would do.... hopefully it comes back up without needing to restore via iTunes.
