Awful_Past_RS wrote What IOS device do you have?: iPhone 4s Jailbroken
What Firmware is it running?: I honestly don't know, 1.5 something I believe.
What is the problem your having?: I tried to update it to 1.6.3 from the iPhone under General Settings. It started to download the update then all of a sudden crashed and went into recovery mode. I need to get out of recovery mode or access files on the iPhone because I have notes I need. I've tried to kick it out of recovery mode with programs but they either do not detect my device or they just restart the phone and it goes back to recovery. I've tried putting it in and out of DFS or w/e mode. Please, any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

im not sure but i think u can use iexplorer to access files in the iphone but if not that try redsn0w to get it out of it

I've tried both. iExplorer doesn't detect it and Redsn0w says it doesn't work on jailbroken devices.

you said you tried putting it into DFU mode? does itunes detect it?

Yes. It is the same as recovery mode, it says I need to recover the device before I can use it. Also, if I put it into DFU mode before I plug it into the computer, it turns back on to recovery mode automatically. Idk if that's normal or not, but yeah.

you should restore through itunes that's all i can think of that would work right now

As I've said, I have important things that I CAN NOT lose on my phone. Restoring it is not an option until I access the notes.

Back up your files on Icloud, Then once your phone has been restored, Simply choose the back up of your device. This can also be done via itunes.

Can I do this from recovery mode, and if so, how? This is all I see on iTunes. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Sorry if this is obvious, I've never used iCloud before.

That's no problem atall that's why were here to help.

Sync with iTunes (disabled if you have iCloud backup turned on)
Right-click (or Control-click) the iOS device in iTunes under Devices and choose Back Up
Use these steps to manually back up your iOS device using iTunes:

Connect your iOS device to a computer with the latest version of iTunes installed.
Click the File menu and select Devices > Back up.

Where is the devices menu you keep referencing? Is ^ the File Menu? If so, devices is not there.

It's under prefences if not try this.


Connect your iOS device to a computer with the latest version of iTunes installed.

Open the iOS device's Summary tab. There are two ways to access this:
Click the device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper right corner. The device button will then be visible.)

From any view in iTunes, click the View menu and select Show Sidebar.

Select your iOS device in iTunes under Devices.

Click the Back Up Now button.

To verify that the backup finished successfully, open iTunes Preferences and select the Devices tab. The name of the device will appear along with the date and time the backup was created.

I found Devices under preferences, [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
What do I do from there?

Is that the Summery tab? If so, there's no Back Up Now button.

Thats summery

Well if that's summery, does that mean that way won't work? Also, I just found this [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Oh, and I've already tried the steps in the video.


That's the correct device tab , But it seems like it's not working since it's in recovery mode :/. Unless you previous saved your back up your kinda screwed.
