how to restore your ipod touch/iphone

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

you would need to put your device into DFU( DOWNLOAD FIRMWARE UPDATE)
if you need to restore your iphone/ipod touch " its crashed" or, maybe you need to jailbreak also,,,,the firmware needs to change ,be custom etc...

1:iphone/ipod touch plugged in (usb)
2:hold power button and home button for about 10 seconds until you here the chime sound
3: when you here the sound ,let go of the power button,but still keep home button pressed for about 15 seconds until the chime again.
4: you should then have a black screen,and itunes will tell you ,you are in dfu mode and need to restore firmware :software
5: this is where you can restore to different firmware( very handy if you want to jailbreak also.
6: hold shift button on pc and left click on mouse restore and choose firmware....location
7:wait awhile and your ipod/iphone etc....is back to original settings...

you will have lost your stuff,but if backed up just re-sync

now if you have backed everthing up then you can sync your apps etc......back to your pod

there soon will be a lot more tips/tricks/mods/etc.....soon thnx micky

You cannot upgrade or downgrade firmware an iPhone that apple has not signed sign anymore and will only work if you have yr shsh saved on cydia server.

I have jailbroken my daughters ipod touch 2G, to get the legodrive app, all OK now.
On the first attempt I failed, she lost her songs from itunes, can she connect to itunes now, or will itunes recognize the jailbreak and attempt to "repair " or replace the firmware?

You can connect to iTunes as usual and syn , add songs everything.
Just don't update software when it asks !
