Try plugging in the phone to the computer and holding down the home and power button for a couple minutes. Sometimes it starts right back up.

Not sure if your iPhone would have the right version but there is a tweak that comes with Cydia called "Cydia Substrate" and allows you to bypass broken extensions that you may have installed that caused this. Hold down the Volume Up button while your device is booting. So I would hold down on home & sleep button until device cold restarts than quickly hold the Volume UP and see if we can at least boot up as normal or get to the iTunes screen to restore. Hope this helps

If you download redsn0w, they have an option to take it out of the boot logo
