Exit iTunes.
Turn phone off.
Hold down the home button.
Plug the phone onto the dock (still holding the home button).
Let go of the home button when you see the white cord and the cd.
iTunes should start and recognize the phone in DFU mode.
Restore.

the only way to restore pwnage on your phone is to restore your phone with the stock firmware file. what freakoftheindustry described is recovery mode, not DFU mode.

Here's how to enter DFU mode:
1. phone disconnected from computer, itunes open
2. with phone on, hold both the sleep/wake button and home button until phone has turned off
3. release the sleep/wake button, continue to hold the home button; plug usb into phone
4. your phone screen will remain black as if it's turned off
5. if you've entered dfu successfully, itunes will recognize your phone and ask you to restore it
6. restore

I'm getting really sick and tired of this problem can't find the answer on the web and it's really frustrating . ... i don't know if there is someone with the same problem as me, i hope so, so I can't be alone... so if someone has another good idea... well I'm all hears...

thanks

itunes no.. I haven't try yet but sync(restored and all) yes in another one.... but how do i do it on a mac.... well I think i know but I'm not sure if it could work or could damage more the iphone.... i really think that the problem is the pwnage... don't know why but i feel so....
were do i unistall the itunes?

[jtesnani]

you uninstall itunes by dragging the application icon to trash and reinstall/download it from the apple website, although if you've tried it on a different computer already, i'm not sure if it's going to work. i guess it doesn't hurt to try

also, i just re-read your first post and you mentioned you can't put it in dfu. what does the phone do when you try to put it in dfu?

another note, it is not pwnage that did this to your phone. have you ever used another software to jailbreak/unlock your phone?

well as i told you i haved use other progams to jailbreak... zhipone independence and iliberty and all of them worked perfectly... when i put it in dfu the iphone restart the pineapple logo appear and then it show the cartoon of steve jobs.. thats all...

[jtesnani]

not sure when you had told me about using other methods but anyway...you're not properly putting it into DFU mode. sounds like you may be holding onto the sleep/wake button for a bit too long, triggering the phone to turn back on.
