My friend gave me his iphone 3g because he bought a new 3GS. before he gave it to me he tried to wipe it to a clean slate. In the middle of the wipe the battery ran out, now whenever i turn it on it just shows the apple logo in the middle and then turns off again. I plug it into the computer and it doesnt show up in itunes. Is there any way I can fix it or wipe it from this state? thanks for your time.
