Problem Installing Limera1 on 4.1

[ImYourHuckaberry]

Need help guys. Followed the installation video but after I hold the home button + power keys & then release I get the image on my phone of the itunes logo & the usb cable and the prompt from itunes to restore?? I'm unable to do anything else but restore. I pop up window from Limera1 that shows on the video does not show up. Help???

Your phone is entering Recovery Mode instead of DFU mode. Make sure you.

1. Turn off your phone completely and then connect to computer, where it will immediately start to turn on, apple logo will appear.
2. Hold down both the sleep and home buttons for ten seconds so you see the phone go off again.
3. Let go of sleep button only, hold on to home button for about 10 more seconds.
4. Phone is now in DFU mode (screen will be black)

Try rebooting your phone...

If icons arent appearing then your JB isnt being delivered. It must be delivered in DFU mode and its a bit stubborn. Try restoring again and then getting it in DFU mode again. Sometimes it just needs a fresh install to get it to deliver the payload...

No AT&T Logo after installing Limera1n

Anybody have the problem of signal issue and no AT&T logo on iPhone 4 after installing Limera1n?

That happened to me the first time I installed Greenpois0n. What happened was that the activation part of the Jailbreak did not go right....

You need to restore and try it again. Wait until you get the activation notification on your phone, and you see the logo before doing the JB...

Limera1n uses a dynamic library to hacktivate your phone, EVEN if your phone can properly activate through itunes. Its lazy and causes problems.

Please use greenpois0n if you can normally activate with iTunes. Also make sure your iPhone activates properly before implementing the JB...

FYI make sure you have itunes open during the process.. if not you get stuck in a loop

Thanks for all of the help. Wound up going with Greenpois0n instead & is works perfect so far. I read some other threads & also changes the root & mobile passwords, so I think I'm good to go now. I do have another question though & I'm assuming its pretty basic but I am new to all of this. Now that the phone is jailbroken, can I still sync with iTunes like normal or will I lose the jailbreak once I sync??

I had an NON JB iphone 3gs on 4.1 with 5.13.02.

I tried to JB using Limera1, i follow all the procedures and I got stuck on limera pop up "DFU mode" and it did not do anything. So i cancelled the whole process and when i try to start my ipod i got to the restore option on itunes. I restored it multiple times and it keeps coming to the same....

could somebody please help me? Thank you so much
