    If you don't want to pay apple a fortune to fix it, buy a new phone. They are notorious for getting nasty if you try to get their products repaired by a third party.

    how about buying a phone that's better than the iphone? iphone is ridiculously overpriced for what it is.

    i want too, but i got this iphone from my cousin as a gift, not really a gift but like a hand out. he said if i can fix it, i can keep it. so im trying to fix it so i can use it as a normal ipod instead. btw i got to error code 21. help? i've been stuck here for an hour now.

    Listen now that itunes picks it up, just go to itunes, and say recover! it will then download the latest firmware and fix your phone.

    You obviously tried to crack your iphone, but use redsnow next time. its automatic-
