      Hello.

      I have a little problem with my Ipod right now. I was downloading some new hawt games and then I clicked on Sync My Ipod in the Itunes and went on the toilet. When I came back, there was a message that Sync was succesful, so I decided to spend some time gaming. Tried to start it (fully charged) but only Apple Logo appeared for couple seconds and went off. And nor Itunes neither CopyTrans or any Ipod software can recognise it.

      Any idea whats going on?
      Thanks

      PS: Ipod 3G 32gb, 3.1.2 Jailbroken

      So what happens when you try to turn it on? The Apple logo appears and then the iPod Touch turns off again? If so, try charging it with a wall charger.

      You know, that theres headset hole? :p


      I dont have Wifi Sync installed, never had.

      When I try to turn it on, apple logo appears and turns off again after few secs, yes.
      Ipod should be fully charged, atleast it was before that sync. Maybe some software glitch could drain all the energy? But I dont have wall charger. I can buy one, but does that fix the problem?

      Sometimes, my iPhone incorrectly displays its battery level. It indicates that the battery level is full, but in actual fact, it's nearly empty. As a result, it wasn't able to turn on because it had an empty battery. Try charging it using your computer first, but if that doesn't work, then use a wall charger.

      Yeah thats possible. Thing that scares me is that PC doesnt recognise Ipod at all, nor Itunes doesnt, nor CopyTrans doesnt.

      my iPod just got screwed tonight
      I tried restoring it to an earlier backup and it's now stuck in some loop
      it shows the apple logo, then a progress bar appears under it, goes up a bit, stops, screen flashes white and it happens again and again

      I think I will have to :(
      But wont be a jailbreak problem? Since it voids the guarantee. But I guess if its dead, they wont find out...

      NOTHING'S IMPOSSIBLE!!! Just put your ipod in DFU mode, which will manually set your iPod/iPhone into restore mode, plug it in your computer, then click the restore button :D
