I tried using ibrickr last night and it failed on me everytime. Finally i went to the boot now button, The screen stayed red like it was supposed to. But now the phone wont boot. It shows the iphone logo then scrolls through a bunch of code. then back to the apple logo and back to the code. Did I just brick my phone. Itunes will not recognize it anymore. Is there anything I can do?
Got a tip for us?

First of all, what are you doing using iBrickr for? If you have Macs then use Pwnage, if you have Windows use iLiberty+ or iPlus, as simple as that, do not use ZiPhone.
To kick it out unconnect the iPhone from the USB hub, then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button along with the Home Button. After 10 secs let go the Sleep/Wake button but continue pressing the Home button for another 10 secs. Then connect the iPhone to your computer and try using iTunes to restore.

is there any other way... been try the step you have mentioned but it is doesn't sync it to iTunes. iTunes doesn't show any iphone/ipod at all. Pls HELP!!!!!!
Your just nervous so your being impatient!
Plug your iPhone into the computer WITH iTunes running.
HOLD DOWN the Sleep AND Home button until you see the Apple logo dissapear and come back up THEN LET GO OF THE SLEEP button but KEEP holding the home button and the iTunes logo will appear.
Just restore to 1.1.4 and use iLiberty+ to jailbreak. Easy.
