I'm having all sorts of issues.
My dad tried to do a screensaver hack and it must have failed or something, but the firmware is stuck at 2.5.6 (501108064) +ss 0.4
I have tried (for way too many hours, really) to uninstall it using original firmware, resetting to factory settings (before i learned that that wouldn't help) and upgrading the screensaver hack.

My dad tried a screensaver hack, but i don't think he had any idea what he was doing. I'm not sure if the device is jailbroken or not, and the screensaver hack is definitely not working. If someone can get me to day 1 firmware, so i can re-hack it properly, or fix my current hacks, i would be eternally grateful.

Serial Number: B003B0A2006XXXXX

Thanks!
