hey my phone has a personal lock on it like when you have to type in a four digit code to actually use it but now that seems like what is my problem i have the connect to itunes screen but when i connect my phone to the computer to connect to itunes it says it cannot connect because it has the lock on it. is there anything i can do to disable the lock because all i can do is make emergency calls and thats it.

Hi! I have had the same problem now for an half an hour.. I tried do downgrade from 1.1.4 to 1.0.2, and it worked fine.. than I jailbraked it with “ziphone” so it worked fine.. than I tried to use the “ibrickr” tool, and it started the jailbreak program “again” and it all clicked! it didn’t respond after 10 minutes, sp i disconnected it. and now It runs through a kind of.. MS-Dos modus on my iPhone, and ends up with “connect to iTunes” and stays at that sign forever.. until I connect it to my computer, and than starts to continue to run trough the DOS thing.. without getting any contact with my iPhone and.. ey! something just happened! it stopped just out of no-where, and now I get contact!
Now I have upgraded it to the 1.1.4 again.. and think I will stay with this.. I just thougt I should post this whole story, maybe it will help someothers if they just let the iphone stay conncted to the computer for a long time! This scenario really freaked me out! hoh..
But.. it wold have been fun to get the ibrickr to work.. so I could install NES emulator and games^^ but.. I guess I’ll just stick with it, as it is for now.
