iPhone Problems
1 May 2008, Hedi |
Installed a modded version of iSMS by iTarek on my iPhone, it asked me to restart, that’s what I did, but the iPhone never gave me anything but the start up screen. It is frozen….
Tried to restore the firmware with iTunes, but it returns me an error 1611…

I think I’ve lost my iPhone in less than 4 days.

I have heard that if you SSH into your phone and remove that last thing you installed and reboot you might save your phone.
It is possible that it is installed, but how can I get into the iPhone then?
Use a program like Forklift or Cyberduck and you can go into your phone and uninstall the iSMS program. Let me know if you need specifics.

I have Transmit but I don’t know how to connect to the iPhone…
I’ve posted the same problem on the mac support website. Im thinking maybe a downgrade. I’ve never heard of a phone not being able to do a restore. I’ve tried to force the restore, but nothing besides the same error!
HELP!
is this irreversible damage?
Ok hang on and I will download and walk you through it. You can email me at fullquiver8@gmail.com if you like
Added you on GTalk and sent you an email, my address ends up with a @mac.com
Check with the spams if you can’t find it please.
Thanks to the CIMEF team in Tunisia, especially Houssem (which solved my problem in less than 5 minutes) and Slim for always being here for me!
And here we go again, another problem!
The iPhone thinks my music is an “other” kind of files, and I can’t get rid of them!
Here’s the latest one when I tried to restore it…
It’s an error (6), this time it’s a few seconds after the restore process starts.
Switched the USB ports, changed user account, downloaded a fresh copy ot the firmware… It’s probably my iMac…
go to modmyifone.com they have alot of good information,
if you have firmware 1.1.3 or higher you need to install summerboard, not only does it add themes, but apple but a 80 program limit, and if you go above that your phone will give you problems
other then that im not sure but that website could help
That will probably useful if I ever restore my iPhone…
Thanks
