So today I was messing around with my old iPod Touch, but I forgot the passcode. I decided to create a custom IPSW using Sn0wbreeze and try to restore it. The thing was, my power buttons was broken, so using Redsn0w I fired up the DFU IPSW creator, put it into Recovery (I think or maybe it was DFU, not sure) and restored it. I ended up with some error.I tried to turn it on and it wouldn't. Its stuck at a black screen. I tried everything, holding down all the buttons, and came up empty. I also tried running TinyUmbrella and RecBoot. TinyUmbrella launches, goes to a little bar saying "Reticulating spines", then goes to solid black bar, with no activity. RecBoot gives me errors with Unhandled Exceptions. RIght now I need a way to fix the black screen and/or get TinyUmbrella running. Thanks!
