I saw the thread about the 6.1 jailbreak and it sounded like a must-do. I was on 5.1.1 firmware with redsn0w's untethered jailbreak. I went on iTunes and clicked on "Download and update." Since it was about 10 minutes long, I decided to go play some AC3 while waiting for it. I come back and find an error on iTunes stating that it couldn't complete the process, and it put my iPod into recovery mode. Therefore, I went on TinyUmbrella and attempted to kick it out of recovery mode but now it just shows the apple logo for about 4-6 seconds then turns black and repeats the process.

I put it back onto recovery mode manually (power button + home), then tried kicking it out with RecBoot and it did the same thing.

Help, please?

ok i also have a ipod 4th gen and i was on redsnow untethered jailbreak as well so what i did was
step 1:update to ios 6.1 (official) from ios 5.1.1
step2: use the evasion jailbreak to get to the 6.1 jailbreak
step3: everything is what you want to do from there on
these are just 3 simple steps i done to get my ipod out of the redsnow jailbreak and onto evasion . to explain the error and black sreen i dont know ? . but just try what i have told you if not attempted already . So if you can get your ipod to show up on itunes its straight forward from there . hope i helped a little

That happened to my friend and he said he fixed it, ill ask him tomorrow.

I tried those three "simple" steps. However, I got an error while upgrading to iOS 6.1 from iTunes which caused my iPod to go on recovery mode. I don't specifically know the reason why as I was doing something else while I was upgrading, but I'm not really looking to go on iOS 6.1 anymore as I heard there were a lot of tweaks that can't be used on 6.1.




Please do.

When rebooting your phone after a hard reset, try holding the home button and volume button or power button and volume button whilst the phone is starting up, do this until you get to the recovery menu and you should be able to restore.
