What firmware are you at?

verizon 4.2.6 jailbroken by Greenpoison

 

[hpcomputergeek]

So it stays at the Apple logo. Right?

 

[phonejunky]

Why are people still jail breaking anyway?

Because, jail breaking is fun and a challenge

 

[phonejunky]

Well if you're the person creating the jailbreak yes, but challenging lol really. I didn't know following directions on a web page was challenging.

We do it so we can use our devices as we want, with functionality far beyond what Apple offers?is that so hard to understand?

The real question is why numbnuts continue to troll forums with dumb questions.

OP: did you install something right before the respring? You may be able to remove it via SSH.

First of all name calling is unnecessary I was asking a legitimate question NOT trolling.

The question and answers are both unnecessary at this point as there are quite a few other threads asking the same question, and without browbeating the people offering answers.

Ok, I will take you at your word, but if you're really interested there are--like Alli mentioned--a ton of other threads that tackle that question. No need to take over a thread where someone is looking for help on a different issue. For a few of my thoughts on why I jailbreak, see my post here.

Feel free to ask whatever questions you might have in a new thread; I'd be glad to talk about it.

Sounds like a respring loop, but the OP doesn't mention the loop.

Is it actually a loop? If so, I have a solution.

I'm having this problem too on iOS 5 jailbreak. Doesn't seem to be a loop because the screen never changes. It just stays at the Apple logo.

Any help would be appreciated. If this has already been answered somewhere, I can't find it!

Try booting back in with redsn0w boot tethered option

Try booting back in with redsn0w boot tethered option

Redsn0w doesn't want to recognize my device since it isn't in DFU mode and I can't seem to turn it off to get there.

Edit: Nvm. I tried to get in DFU mode 4 times before posting. Looks like fifth time was a charm. Thanks for the response xboxit.

I didn't install anything before this started happening! I powered the phone off and let it sit for about 10 minutes, then turned it back on it eventually boots! This is very strange! I also noticed that whenever i respring, this happens! After a respring, it just gets stuck at the apple logo screen! So far only my workaround is turning the phone off and letting it sit for a while, then turn it back on! This is extremely irritating! I'm wondering should i just go ahead and upgrade to ios5 and jailbreak that!
