So, last weekend I jailbroke my Ipod touch 4g on ios 6.1.6. it went fine but I wanted it tethered (I have a broken home button) So I used the P0sixspwn untether repo. It installed and said it worked so I turned my ipod off and it wouldnt boot. It booted fine with redsn0w. So then I found that they have a untether tool, I downloaded it. And I was gonna restore using itunes. So either I did and it didnt work and put it in dfu mode, or it just shut it off. Or I messed around with redsn0w and either got it in dfu mode or just had it off. I cant quite remember... But long story short my ipod wont boot I used rubbing alcohol to fix the home button it worked and it went into dfu mode, but... it wouldnt boot with redsn0w. Nothing would work. And when I would boot it with redsn0w it would get stuck on the pineapple logo. So I got it back in dfu mode. And I did try to restore with itunes and it didnt work. And it went out of dfu mode at one point and wont work. I used the rubbing alcohol again... It worked then I did something else (I cant remember what...) Now it wont work it looks like its in dfu but its not reconized by my pc. So I used rubbing alcohol again... And it didnt work... So... My pc wont reconize it. It looks like its back in dfu but it wont work. I dont know if my home button works or not again but since I cant seem to get it into dfu mode (if its not already) but it wont work. Its just a black screen now. I dont know what to do. Whats wrong with it? I got it december of 2010 btw.
You can try tinyumbrella to kick the ipod into recovery to try and restore with itunes...
Note: If you get that far and are restoring with itunes be sure to close tinyumbrella or else you'll get a 3194 error.
