i guess I'll try being really descriptive here to figure out the solution, so...
I bought an iPhone from a friend (1st gen), unlocked and whatnot. I put my SIM but his contacts, mail, etc were still all there so I went to General settings and went to delete everything.
That's when it started to get odd, every time I would turn on the iPhone it would start up and freeze at the loading screen. Also on the top right there would be a little small part of what I assume is the Home screen.
I tried doing the restore thing and I had to do an iPhone update on my laptop while my iphone was connected, so I did it in about 2 hours. It's been a few hours and now my iPhone will show the battery bar and it will blink red in the end. I connect the charger and after a bit it boots up by itself and then I go into the logo freezing issue all over again.
I don't think I can do the restore thing again because i have to have the USB charger connected at all times because the battery is so low.
Help? I'm really confused
