    iPhone Not Detected on Computer

    I have a t-mobile unlocked iphone.

    If I plug my USB cable into my iPhone, and plug it into the AC adapter, it charges.
    If I dock it, it won't charge.
    If I plug it in directly, it won't charge.
    I can't sync or hack it from a computer because of this.
    The computer never reacts (i.e., normally you see "found new hardware...")

    This worked yesterday morning (already unlocked). Between yesterday morning and today, I installed a few themes and performed a youtube hack. Either way, all of that was done on another computer using the same cables, and the iPhone was unlocked prior to this morning when it worked on my home machine.

    I tried all the USB ports on this computer. I tried my laptop. I tried another cable. None of it fixes it. Why would it suddenly stop working? Is it possible a hack could kill it like that? (see this thread for a similar story http://www.iphonealley.com/forums/showthread.php?t=853).

    The phone was unlocked on a Mac using INdependence 1.2.3. Further hacks were done using iBrickr on Windows (never had a problem the entire day). The machines now trying to access the iPhone are Windows as well.

    Any ideas?

    Sounds like your phone got confused somehow

    I would try revirginizing before you restore. Use these instructions to virginize http://www.iphonegoboom.com/faq/faq.html#restore

    I figured it out.

    There is a patch 1.1.1 lockdownd file in this thread:

    http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/show...downd+download

    Upload it to /usr/libexec/ (make sure you back up your current one)

    THEN MAKE SURE YOU CHMOD IT TO 0755!

    Restart iphone.
