Many of us have probably
jailbroken
our iDevices before. When you jailbreak, there are plenty of risks you are taking to do it. One of the big ones is bricking your
iPhone. You know your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad is bricked when you turn on the device to boot up, and it just stays on the Apple logo, and won’t come to the slide to unlock screen. Nevertheless, your iDevice is unusable.
Bricking of the device can occur after a jailbreak, where your phone’s processor can’t handle it. This also can happen after upgrading your software. Most of the time, your IPhone is bricked because it has too much data (usually apps) for the iDevice to load. Sometimes this can happen even when you are not trying to jailbreak or anything of that matter, but Apple doesn’t want to tell you that there is a free way to fix it, so they want you to get a completely new phone. If your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad is bricked just follow this easy tutorial to get your iDevice back to its original state.
