Honestly, with an iPhone 4s, it's not really worth the effort. It is unlikely that you'll be able to use it as a phone, at least not in the U.S. If it can't connect to the cellular network, it's going to be quite crippled. It won't be able to send the SMS messages necessary to log into iMessage or FaceTime.


A boot loop is usually a sign of a hardware failure.
