Try doing a restore in recovery mode or what is known as DFU.


Instructions to boot into DFU can be found here:

Once in DFU mode, plug into iTunes and click Restore.


I know you said you tried all reset procedures, but I want to be sure.


Note: This will delete all your data on the Phone, hopefully you have a backup.
