Today, I was installing the official 3.0 firmware update for my iPhone. Apple's authentication servers crashed. I now own an iBrick. FML

put your iphone into DFU mode, then boot it with 1clickboot.

Aww... I'm sure they can do something about that though.

That happened with my Ipod touch when I was jail breaking it. Just go onto youtube and there is a million tutorials on how to unbrick your iphone/ipod touch. You got to reset it though. thats the only bad part.

You really didn't expect this. The 2.0 did the same thing and you can just reconnect and it will authenticate. YDI for thinking this is an FML

umm Wow I like htc and nokia phones better than anything else... Not a den of either apple or blackberry And i prefer pc over mac Just cuz it lets you do more stuff and is compatible with a lot more things But apple has it charms as well Not everyone fits in the same shoes ppl which is why have so many options So chill ppl Its not a ******* big deal And op ... Fyl . . . It must have felt horrible You were thinking that it would become better but instead ... Its became a brick Its saddening And ppl who say this is not ******... This website is not meant for something seriously ******. It say "share you every day onenrutoate moments and other funny fails" This post fits the criteria So puts being such bitches

Just put your phone into DFU mode by holding the home and sleep button, when the phone shuts off you keep holding the home button and press the sleep button for 10 seconds and boom! You should be in DFU mode, than just connect to iTunes and restore :)
