Default Please Help I Am Struck

Dear FriendS,

I have used Ziphone to unlock my Iphone & it has been working perfectly since March 08, Kudos to them for doing this for all of us.

NOW I have a big problem, which is of my own doing.
- from the installer I was trying to install some applications like games etc & in my over zealousness I also installed the BSD subsystem as I was promted to do so before I could install the caller ID help plugin (for unsupported countries), I am in India where Iphone is still not available officially.
As soon as I installed both these files I was prompted to restart the phone which I did, but it refuses to start now, all I am getting is the apple sign on the screen & a hung timer.
I have tried all permutations & combinations including restoring the phone but it always get struck after the 2nd restart with the same screen.
While restoring I get the message "Itunes has detected an Iphone in recovery mode, you must restore the iphone before it can be used with itunes", I click on restore & it starts preparing the phone for restoration , but hangs with the apple icon screen & eventually I get a message saying "The Iphone could not be restored. An unknown error occured (1604)"
Twice it has so happened that Ziphone informed me that the Iphone is unlocked & it even shows on the screen that it is syncing with my computer, but on the screen I keep getting the apple icon & the timer
Please advise what do I do now.

I am using the itunes 7.6.2.9 & the version 1.1.3 for the iphone.
