Hey guys, I just got an iPhone 2G cause my brother-in-law had one laying around...
When i first got it, i started to charge it cause it didn't turn on; once i plugged it in i saw a red battery charging after about 10 minutes i unplugged it and it shut off. I tried hard reset "home button and top right", plugging it to computer even while holding the shift button, restarted computer when plugged it and still empty handed. I recently just leave it there to charge and one random day in the middle of me using the computer the phone turned on "i didn't open itunes or anything just plain random" and it went to the recovery mode and finally itunes detected it. i restored it and everything but when it finished it was still on recovery mode. so i did it again no luck. i tried hard reset and it shut off....now its back to square one where its off and nothing works.....
any idea or advice? any help would be greatly appreciated
THANKS
