IPhone 3GS doesn't work after recovery mode?

I turned on my iPhone and it show the sign to plug into iTunes. I plugged it in and it said, "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this device before it can be used with iTunes." I restored it, and afterwards it said the same thing, to Restore it, as if I never restored it.
I can't even turn on my iPhone to the menu. All it will show on the screen when it's on is the sign to plug it into iTunes.

Try holding the home and lock button for 10 seconds, After 10 seconds release the home button but keep hold of the lock button. When the logo screen comes on release the lock button. If this doesn't help i'm afraid i would go and get it looked at by someone, or try and restore it in iTunes.
