  • i was restoring my ipod touch and thats the first thing i did and then i tried to jail break it but im not sure if it did cuz now my ipod would not turn on and when i plug it onto itunes it says itunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. you must restore this ipod before it can be used on itunes.. and the problem now is it wont do anything

  • can anyone help me i have a ipod 3gs jailbroken with spirit jb and my itouch been really laggy so i decided to restore it...ever since then when i try to turn on my itouch it just stays on that apple logo for a long time then the screen just blacks out i tried that hold the home button then plug into your computer thing and it didnt work PLZZZ HELP I MISS MY ITOUCH

  • @Assasin477owns The easiest way to fix this is to do a factory default restore. To do this, put your iPod touch into DFU mode. To do that, press and hold Power and Home buttons for 10 seconds. Then release the Power button but remain holding the Home button for 10 - 20 seconds. Then your iPod will be recognized by your computer and you can use iTunes to do a factory default restore.

  • @kill4thefame i did exactly what you said because i have the same problem and when i go to restore it it extracts the soft wear and then a error pops up and it wont restore it what do i do???

  • @Assasin477owns It's a "tethered" Jailbreak, download redsn0w and then go to "Extras" and "Just Boot", if you don't want it jailbroken, go into DFU Mode ( explained on redsn0w ) and restore it on iTunes. I am waiting for untethered jailbreak, and I suggest you do too.

  • My ipod always restarts when ever im doing something how do i stop it from doing tht

  • 4g RULES

  • Wat is that theme

  • Im trying to fix my ipod like this, ive done it before the same way you show in the video. But now when i do it it gets to the picture with the guy and the ipods and doesn't pass that part. i have an ipod touch 3g 32gb. please help me out if you know how i can fix this. I don't even care if i have to format it at this point. I just want it to work again, I can jailbreak it again later. please help, anyone

  • @lolpankake you can always just format it in iTunes by pluging it in and iTunes will say there is an iPod in recovery mode... at this point if you have a back up on your computer then it can restore it to your backup, but if not you can start fresh... then once you have the normal 3.1.2 firmware or which ever one you choose on your iPod you can then rejailbreak... i would reccomend going with the new 4.2.1 jailbreak...

  • @kill4thefame

    When I try to just restore it with iTunes it gets to the part where it says waiting for ipod, and on the ipod it comes up with the apple logo onscreen and a loading bar but never passes that part. Also I have the newest iTunes downloaded.

  • blackra1n keeps saying its missing something.......

  • its a MacBook Pro. I also use my Mac Pro for some things.

  • your pc looks like a mac

  • i keep getting a black screen instead of the picture what do i do??????????

  • Good explanative review. Rock your Phone has recently been bought out by saurikIT (cydia) and rock is o longer a working app for installations, hope some people find this helpful, somewhat.

  • do you hve to do it all the time or only once???????

  • @armykid0000 only after you turn off your iPod or the battery dies do you do it

  • @kill4thefame kk so say im somewhere im listening to music and i turn it off. After i turn it back on will i be able to go on my ipod touch or do i have to do the blackra1n thing all over again???

  • @kill4thefame i forgot what gen i have possibly 3g its a itouch 32gig and i left it unpluged for a while because i didnt use it anymore, so now when i pluged it in it just goes to the apple logo screen and then goes black...i tried DFU mode nothinged happened, it is tehtered by redsn0w i think any ideas?

  • so do you have to do it awry time you turn it on

  • I was wondering how to update a ipod touch while its jailbroken

    I dont want to erase the jailbreak and reintall it ??????

  • @JOEYMAN101100 what you can do is backup everything that you have via Rock's backup feature... you have to have a rock account which is free and it stores what you have downloaded... you then upgrade, rejailbreak and then let rock re-download everything... that has been the most effective method I have seen

  • hi my said version 4.0 what should i do ?

    also every time i tried to run the blackra1.exe it shows me an error that says unable to locate component...

  • @joseandres20fl If you have 4.0 you need to get the newest jailbreak for your iPod... you can check out jailbreakmatrix and see if you can jailbreak your iPod. Only the 2nd gen touch can be jailbroken with 4.0 and its in beta and crashes quite a bit... if you have a 3rd gen iPod then you will have to wait in order to jailbreak

  • Spirit is better easy and untethered

  • @coolapontan98 Duh... it the newest jailbreak... obviously a video from November 2009 isn't going to have Spirit in it... this is a work around for people like me who have way too many apps or just don't care to upgrade to 3.1.3, or even 4.0 for that matter

  • I jailbrok my 3rd gen deleted cydia and black rain. But how do I delete installous

  • @Shadowplay117 you need and app called cydelete which allows you to delete apps from cydia

  • i9dont get this

  • @htel123 not really

  • Nice video, really worked!

    Thanks!

    P.S What theme is that on your iPod?

  • Nice Video really worked!

    Thanks

    P.S What theme is that for your ipod?

  • I used "Spirit Jailbreak" which is an untethered jailbreak which means that you don't have to reboot your iPod ever. AND you can't turn your iPod off and on as many times as you want and you don't have to reboot. Even if your iPod dies, you can just plug it in and turn it right back on. Questions on how ro do this, MSG me back

  • @cooliest147 what are you ipod specs?

  • thanks! just wondering, is it ok to put it on hold instead of turning off, and if you need to install blackra1n again, what happens to the ipod, will it go un-jailbroken or will you loose all your free apps? thanks, hope you have time to reply

  • great help thanx

  • thnks dis was helpful

  • I got a problem on this, when I click make it rain and the "jailbraking successful" pops out, my ipod will show the picture of blackra1n and it will reboot but the usb connect to itunes is still there.. How do I fix this????

  • @kill4thefame But,my firmwAre is 3.1.2 (7D11)!!!!

  • @roberttrujillo14 yes, but you can upgrade to 3.1.3 if you want to

  • is there a way to reboot with out having to jailbraking it again for an ipod touch 2nd gen?

  • @unknowuser10 Rerunning blackra1n does not rejailbeak, it simply restarts your iPod. You keep all your apps and music, etc. However there is now a 3.1.3 untwtheres jailbreak out now so I would reccomend that.

  • @kill4thefame thank you so much for your help and for your reply!!!

    Now the awnsers in your questions:

    1st:My iPod touch is tethered jailbroken!

    2:My firmware is 3.1.2 (7D11)

    3: I will try it!!

    ;)

  • @roberttrujillo14 Hey, there is a 3.1.3 untetherd jailbreak out now which might solve your problem. You should check it out.

  • @kill4thefame where is this3.1.3 UNTETHERED jailbreak locared at?

  • @shredMaster031 it still is blackra1n you just upgrade your firmware to 3.1.3 before running it

  • @shredMaster031 SPIRIT

  • @lylrocker you can run or save it

  • it works for all shutdown processes. so yes, if you slide off and if cydia powersoff

  • THANK YOU!!!!! You finally answered my question on if u have to reconnect to blackra1n if u put it on standby or reboot!!!

  • no problem

  • your'e the man!

  • thanks, but actually I'm just his worldly messenger

  • Heyy kill4fame please help me!!!!!!!!!!! My 3rd gen iPod Touch, when I open a app it closes staright away with3 seconds what do I do? :(

  • @TheTruePunjabi

    turn off your ipod and then turn it on and run blackra1n

  • aww thanks a lot ill suscribe haha well i restored mine but finally found this and it help soo ill do that later when it happens again haha thx alot

  • thanks man !! it helped me A LOT !! i was almost clicking on restore before i found your vid !! gosh... really thanks !!

  • every time i plug in my ipod to the computer it says that it cant find the driver software. is it because i have vista??

  • you may need to uninstall and reinstall itunes

  • @kill4thefame yea i tried that but it did the same thing

  • @mtdrew735 if you have more than one USB bank on your computer, try a different port... like not one next to it, but on on the backside, or front... also you can try updating your driver for your USB banks and see if the driver did not install correctly in Vista

  • does rock has all the cydia files?

  • rock has had every cydia file except one that i have wanted so far... and thats is because it was an app designed by cydia and they would not allow Rock to have it, but Rock linked to the cydia page

  • you can also hold the top button and the home button for 10 seconds then let go of home and keep holding the top button for 2-3 seconds

    Your Welcome this works for any ipod in restore mode

  • @tankdagr8 this will put your iPod into dfu mode, which may be what you are looking for, but I am not 100% sure...

  • cydia is slower, but it never makes you reboot, only respring which doesnt require you to run blackra1n again.

    so, i recommend you use both, but only use rock when you are near a computer because its faster, but requires reboots for almost every app.

  • @corndog5595 rock has never asked me to reboot for an app... it has always been a respring which does not require a computer... Rock is up to 1000% than Cydia in the last dev team test i have seen

  • okay then...well, about 2 months ago when i last used rock, thats what it did.

    glad they fixed that.

  • um could u help me i did all of the above but when i run blackra1n the screen turns black after the picture shows for like 5 seconds. Then it tells me to connect to itunes :p

  • Hey question if my friends acedentaly shut off my iPod and everything gets erased can I just run blackra1n instead of restoring it to save all memory? Because my iPod is a tetherd jailbreak

  • yes... this is how to do just that

  • Thanks your awesome

  • how do you delete winter board?

  • you need hold down on winterborad until there is an x... you may need cydelete from cydia/rock

  • 2 questions does this work with windows? Do I have to have blackra1n installed on my ipod? I have blackra1n on my windows coputer touch but I uninstalled it on my ipod touch

  • windows works, and black rain will install balckra1n on your ipod for you

  • Will i have all the apps i got from installous? Will all my apps be deleted?

  • This helped so much! it worked on my iPod. Lol i was wondering for a few days how do i reboot it. Thanks alot!

  • @adamglfcv21 I recommend you to try rocketdock :) Just search for it and you will find their homepage. Download it and get the OS X Leopard skin + the stack docklet and you will have a taskbar like on the mac :) I use it myself + you get to change to whatever skin you want, size, placement etc. ^^

    Thanks for the video also :) This works the same for iPhone 3gs i hope? Had to reboot mine once jailbroken, but it got stuck at apple logo. Had to put it in dfu :(

  • thanks mate, been looking for a video just like this!

  • this is my macbook pro so it runs Snow Leopard not windows... however, Windows 7 runs a similar OS that has a "task bar" feature that runs on the bottom

  • does this work with windows?

  • Hey man thanks alot ur rock and quick question will this work for the app poof on rock because it needs a reboot so can I do the same steps as in ur video?

  • @DannyMan2804 yes, this wil work with any app from rock or cydia

  • dude i hope this works

  • thx ur the best

  • thanx vid explained alot

  • when are they comin out with an untethered jailbreak?

  • that is unknown... rumors are that Apple closed the backdoor that we once thought was open... however i have not seen anything to confirm this... to be honest I, along with everyone but the dev team don't know

  • regninnep12 vplease listen to me.

    i have a ipod 3g 3.1.3, and i want to downgrade it to 3.1.2. i have tried to restore from 2g 3.1.2 but is doesnt want to restore. could you help me out here?

  • ok... for those of you who upgraded to 3.1.3 you have to download the 3.1.2 off of a site like rapidshare or mediafire, etc... then you shift + click on restore in itunes and select the 3.1.2 firmware

  • thank u so much man u saved my life

  • You need to close out of blackra1n and the open it up and click make it rain again if your iPod sits on the guys face or a black screen for a while.

  • dood this helped a hell load! i was about to restore my entire ipod lol

  • mine just shows a blackscreen not the guy

  • thank you!!!

  • ok i got my ipod jailbroken and i installed cydia when i got somthin there it turned off and on itunes they told me i have to restore it and i think i will lose all my stuff what do i do?!?!?!??!

  • follow the steps in the video and this will prevent you from losing everything

  • if i click make it rain to reboot screen only turns black.. :(

  • when i reboot and re jailbreak, will all my apps still stay and deos this work with i tunes 9?

  • all of your apps stay... yes this works with iTunes 9

  • Does it have to connect if it is in sleep

  • no. your ipod can go into sleep mode normally

  • Does it work if i shut my Ipod off?

  • this is what you do if your iPod does power down of gets shut off

  • One thing: I run my blackrain to reboot.. The makers face comes up and then it shuts down?

  • if you are on a mac you may need to close black rain with your iPod connected and then rerun blackra1n so that it reboots the iPod to finalize the process... the same may be for a PC so you can try it

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH :D

  • Hey kill4thefame, so there is no way blackra1n will mess up or freeze or anything when you run it in order to get winterboard, correct?

  • it never has for me and i have jailbroken my iPod like three times, and about seven other people's iPods without a problem

  • ty subed

  • I GOT A QUESTION: Is there any way to turn off ur ipod without needing to rejailbreak it again (to save batteries)? I believe you would have to plug it into the computer and then turn it off...is it true?

  • if you are plugged into a computer then your iPod would be on because it charges in the on mode, so to answer your question, No

  • thanks loads!!!!!!!

  • There is no way to reboot without a computer. My theme is custom elements combined. The link to the wallpaper is in the descrition. I also have five icon and a couple of other mods.

  • Is there also a way that i can reboot my ipod touch without connecting it to my pc=

  • dude plz tell me the name of your theme and where did u get it from. Btw i have the exact name ipod jailbroken

  • Haha I figured this out a couple weeks ago after rebooting like 5 times

  • i <3 you :)

  • why when i open black it said the software is encounterd

  • <3 u (:

  • thankkkkkkkkkkkkkk you dude, I was freaking out because I thought I needed to restore my ipod cus it got fucked by the jail break. turns out its just a tethered break. I bet 80% of the complaints/problems with this break are from idiots like me hahaha. anyway thanks a lot!

  • hey dude just a quick question...what happens if you actually restore it instead of using blackra1n?

  • you lose everything

  • i dont think you need winter board i turned mine off said i needed 2 connect it 2 itunes just opend black rain did the make it rain thing again and turned my ipod touch back on and evreything was how it was

  • you don't need winterboard.... if you want apps like winter board that require a restart then you will need to follow the steps laid out in the video

  • thanx sooo much

  • so that dont matter the 2g u can do w.e u want and the 3g apple made it beacuse they found out about the jailbreaking so they decided to make the new ipod touch 3g thehered ( how ever u spell that word ) so ppl can stop jailbreakin cause that shit gets annoying

  • every generation of iPod touch was tethered at first... it takes time to develop an untethered jailbreak... eventually there will be an untethered jailbreak for 3rd gen iPod touches

  • wow that suks y dont u just get the ipod touch 2g

  • because 3rd gen has 50% faster performance

  • thx so much this vid helped alot

  • Excellent!, thank you very much saved me so much time and no more RESTORE!

  • thanks so much man i thought i lost my ipod again

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

  • the link to the wallpaper is in the vid description for those who asked...

  • when i try clicking the make it rain button, it says "wating for device" and stay that way. what do i do????? i dont want to restore through itunes and lose everything. please someone help.

  • are you attempting to rejailbreak or is this your first time?

  • ty worked very well

  • ty!!!

  • where do u get the green apple wallpaper??

  • Oh Maybe U Get Like Reset Ur Itunes Or Reset Ur Setting On Ipod Touch 3g 8 Gig Bite

  • ok i got a big problem my ipod doesnt let me play some apps and i dont know why it just started a day or two ago i just bought nova and it will play the cinematic in the begining then goes to the home page or it lets me play for a little then kicks me out what do i do??

  • if you use installous then certain apps may crash on you... just follow the steps in the video to reboot your iPod and see if clearing the caches and ram fixed the problem

  • I bought the eight gig one and or still has the tether jailbreak

  • if it is gen 2 then no, i'm not sure about the gen 3 because they are just revamped gen 2 8 gigs and don't have the faster processor
