Help, Frozen at Apple logo

OK.

I did something very stupid to start. I only wanted to jailbreak my phone but when I first ran ZiPhone I checked Unlock instead of Jailbreak. I realized this and hit stop while it was going on (probably very stupid). I did a restore back to 1.1.3 because the phone was just showing the gray apple logo and now the phone works but when I tried to run it again to Jailbreak it runs and then sticks at the gray logo again. I'm using the original ZiPhone I think.

I have a 1.1.2 OTB thats running 1.1.3.

Any ideas how I can still get this thing jailbroken?

well first off, i would def use the newest ZiPhone. do a fresh restore and then when you run the jailbreak, try "ZiPhone -v -j". this should keep it from hanging at the apple and should jailbreak it for you! let me know if it works.
-j = jailbreak
-v = verbose mode.

Run your ziphone with a -j -a -v... the -v will let you see everything on your iphone screen. The -v might actually fix everything, but if not, you'll be able to see exacly where your phone stopped responding, and from there we can make the proper adjustments.

OK. Thanks. I can use the GUI right and just do Verbose and Jailbreak right?

[offtopic] Drakkhen, some day I hope to be able to explain things as clearly as you! haha[/offtopic]

The GUI version should be fine to use.

Let's use the command line - I always like command line better...
