iPod touch 4G stuck on black screen after full redsn0w jailbreak

I

iMore Question

I have an iPod touch 4G running ios 6.1.6, that has a broken home button. I was able to use Redsn0w to create a custom dfu and through restore of itunes, the device was put into dfu mode. From here i successfully completed the rest of the tethered jailbreak flawlessly. Then i proceeded to cydia where i installed the p0sixspwn which i though was supposed to make the device untethered. Everything seemed to work fine so i went to eat lunch but left my ipod upstairs plugged into the computer. When i came up to get it about an hour later, i unplugged it from the computer, which caused it to go black. I think it is in dfu mode but everytime i try to just boot again through redsn0w it stops at exploit failed and then when i click just boot a second time it tells me that the ipod needs to be put into dfu mode. I have tried kicking it out through tiny umbrella but to no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated.
