My iPod touch keeps restarting itself.

I updated my 4th gen ipod touch this morning and since then it is stuck continually restarting itself. My ipod gets to the start up screen where the apple logo shows and then it switches itself off and then turns itself back on again and this repeats until the battery dies. I charged it thinking once it had died it would fix its own problem, but it continued even after that. I've tried the full restart by holding the home button and lock screen, but that only stops it for a second. Anybody have any ideas on how to fix it?

Try:

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

- Try another cable

- Try on another computer

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
