    I assume that your last post was removed and you know why. If DFU mode didn't work, you are most likely stuck now. See if you can find help from the site where you learned to hack the iPad in the first place.

    The reason my Ipad is not working isn't because of some hack. It was because I reset the Ipad and then all of a sudden it just stopped working and this happened. Nothing to do with hacks

    And you know that for sure because??? You admitted that it was jail broke, didn't you? All bets are off when you jail break. You can't expect the standard troubleshooting fixes to work on a device that is no longer "standard".

     

    I'm really not trying to be a jerk. I want to see you fix the device. I'm just saying its a different animal now that it is jail broken. If all of the standard fixes didn't work and DFU mode didn't work, there's nothing more to try. Just keep trying what you have been trying and maybe something will finally work.

    Ok so here is what happened. First, I reset my device completely. Then the bar is stuck like at the full mark so I decide to hold home and power to restart or something. Then when I turn on it won't work. My battery was around 47% when I reset. Do you know what possibly could've happened after I reset?

    I Understand what you are saying. The software download/update stopped for some reason. Many times, a forced restart like you tried, will get it going again. When that doesn't work, the next step is to try recovery mode. You said that you got that error message when you tried recovery mode. If you tried all of the suggestions, there really isn't anything go else to try except for DFU mode. So that's why I'm saying to keep trying what you have been trying.

     

    Try recovery mode or DFU mode on another computer. Something is preventing the restore from completing and it's almost impossible to know exactly what it could be that is causing this.

    Lol. Just called apple and all I had to do was get the latest version of Itues and it worked. Customer support is great.

    I asked you if you had tried everything in this article and you said that you did.

    If you see Error 3194, Error 17, or 'This device isn't eligible for the requested build' in iTunes - Apple Support

     

    This is is the very first thing that it states in the article.

    If you see one of these messages and need help updating or restoring your iOS device, install the latest version of iTunes and try to update or restore again. If you need more help, follow the steps below.

     

    I am happy to hear that you got it all sorted out. Be nice to your iPad now.
