iPhone 4 - In Recovery Mode but won't restore?!

purt

I logged into iTunes earlier and saw that there was a newer version of the iPhone software available. Went to download it. Thought it had but obviously not. Now my phone is in recovery mode.

Every time I connect it to iTunes I get a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode and I must restore it before it can be used with iTunes. I've tried restoring it but when I do, all I get is an error message saying that it can't be restored because an unknown error occurred.

I'm now without a phone. Anyone encountered this? Any solutions?

Try resetting it. Pressing both buttons and holding.

Then try to restore

Take to an apple store or where ever you got it from. My ipod touch 2nd gen got bricked by an update same problems, had to get it sent back to amazon and got a new one.
