okay so i tried to jailbreak my 1st gen 8gb ipod touch with blackra1n, and it got half way done and locked up. okay, so just restore it (i have no problem erasing everything on it), right? WRONG! my stupid ass home/menu button doesnt work! (thats the whole reason that i wanna jailbreak it, so that i can run this little app that eliminates the need for it because right now when i wanna go home it have to turn it off and back on, a major pain in the ass.) so now i can't re set it (its in the all too common locked up state right now. usually just a reset would fix it) so then i found this super half-assed program (start it with the "run" feature in windows; high tech, right? haha. and it runs is a command prompt. W-O-W lmao) and it did a half-assed reset. now when i plug it in, itunes kinda recognizes it, but it says its disabled and needs to be restored. okay, sounds good, lets do it. well itunes seems to think that its an iphone and it tries to download the firmware for that. just for shits and giggles, i tried it. and of course, it didnt work. so then i downloaded my original firmware (1.1.5 i think) and shift + left clicked restore so i could select the .ipsw file manually. well that doesnt work either and now im sitting here all pissed off with an ipod that doesnt respond to anything and is stuck with an all grey screen.
sorry for such a long rant but if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated
