try setting permissions in var to 777 first before you restore.

I doubt he can do that. Maybe try SSH anyway. Use your router to find the IP address.
Perhaps try DFU mode. Hold power and home for EXACTLY 10 seconds, then let go of power and continue to hold home until (hopefully), your computer recognizes it.
