Default Restoring my iphone

Hi, i need a way to restore my iphone without a computer... Using installer or something.
My computer won't detect my iphone so i cant restore it that way. I am having lots of problems with it. Since i jailbroke my iphone, i need to restore it so i can get it exchanged. i have a 16 gb iphone with 1.1.4

thanks

You need to put the phone in recovery mode. You do that by holding the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears (about 20 seconds). Release the Sleep/Wake button, and continue holding the Home button until the connect to iTunes graphic is displayed. You may have to do it several times, but eventually it will take.

Good luck

Does it also not take a charge via AC? Your dock connector is shot, and there is no way to restore at this point.

Wow this is the third time I've given this advice today. Must be an epidemic:

Let your phone drain to the point that it won't power on anymore then take it back to Apple. If it won't take a charge or light up when docked, they won't be able to tell what you've done with it, and you may get a replacement.

But there is no way to restore without a computer.
