My iPhone was stuck in the same restart loop all day yesterday. No clue what triggered it. Began during a routine charging. It was working well before the recharge.
I tried a few things that didn’t work including a “reset all settings.” Finally fixed by installing the new upgrade 2.2. Good timing.

I just ran into the same problem, did all resetting over and over with no resolve. I then cleared the phone (sync set to manual and erased the contents i.e. music, pics). Then downloaded and installed iPhone s/w v. 2.2. The firmware update took about 20 minutes (a white apple on the phone display with a progress indicator during the update). Then the phone rebooted and is now working fine. I hope this helps.

Apple Store sucks, Go there what you can do is reserve for a 8 hours later support. They don’t even look your phone.

Hi,
I faced a similar problem after installing an app from the installer… my phone just freezed and wont re-boot no matter how many times i tried to cold boot it (by holding power and home buttons)… I finally had to reboot my phone in recovery mode (By plugging in the USB and holding power+home buttons and then then letting go of the power button as soon as the phone started) … I already had 1.1.4 firmware on my machine and i restored my firmware .. then used Ziphone to unlock and again jailbreak the phone…
It all works!

Cheers!
Varun

Have the same problem, but I guess I have to blame myself for installing iPhone 2.0 firmware (the latest developer version). ;-) My device just reboots ever 2 minutes to recover mode and I can’t access it from XP, Vista and Leopard 10.5.3.

The Apple Store didn’t want to do anything with the iphone once they knew it was unlocked.. My iphone is trash now :(
Did anybody have this rebooting problem and got it fixed/replaced???? Please advise.

Thanks.

This rebooting problem -out of no hwere- happened to my 8G iphone!!
The phone was unlocked 4months ago and was working with T-Mobil sim card like a charm.. I don’t know how this happened..
Even my iTune is not detecting it. Do you guys think appel store will replace it for me even if I don’t have an account with AT&T??

Hi
I just manage to step one step further on this ;))
What I did was…
… plug my iPhone to my PC (windows Vista) with itunes on, now my iPhone starts constantly reebooting and then I pressed the HOME (rounded one on iPhone ;) ) button and the OFF button together waited a minute and the phone shoved me a sign of being conected to the pc.
Itunes recognised it then I pressed the restore button in itunes and it started to download my 1.1.4 firmware for my iPhone.
I hope this will help someone to get started adn sorry my english.

well, i found something out today. I dont know if this is the best place to post this. I installed an app using the installer and then the springboard froze with the little gear. I couldnt click on anything. Power off didnt work. So i had to hold home and power to reboot in restore mode, only to find that it kept me at the apple logo and buzzed and kept rebooting in a loop. So, i tried it again until i got the little connect to itunes screen. I then used INdependence and it connected but it did not boot it. So i went to customize and tried to delete any app from the phone and it rebooted the springboard. Back in business!

By the way i have a mac so i don’t know how it will work on a pc.
