I was just trying out the Pwned DFU Mode prior to the normal DFU. So once I successfully entered PWNED DFU Mode, I 'got out of it' and the apple logo came out. Since my iPhone was tethered jailbroken, I had to click just boot. And the apple logo would just stay there until I did the tethered just boot option.So, my iPhone screen was at the apple logo and I tried to enter DFU mode normally, the. I bought an iphone 4, 4.3.5 locked to at&t. I tried to jailbrake it with redsnow and restored it to 4.3.3 with custom firmware from snowbreeze. Everything went smoothly, no errors but now my phone is not responding. I can't reboot it or get out of DFU mode.
