Recovery Mode is running iBoot

Entering Recovery Mode

  1. Turn the device completely off and disconnect it from cable/dock.
  2. Hold down the home button.
  3. While holding down the home button connect to a computer with a cable (easiest) or dock.
  4. Keep holding down the home button until you see a connect-to-itunes screen (on a QuickPwn'ed phone a drawing of Steve might be shown). You are now in recovery mode.

Leaving Recovery Mode

To escape Recovery Mode on 2.x.x firmware download QuickPwn, start it with iPhone connected to computer, when pop-up show up do as it says (press home and power buttons for 5-15 seconds until phone switches off, then turn it on normally). Here is video tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xO1jiPE9nnY#t=3m40s

For firmware 1.x.x start iPhuck and ussue the following commands:

cmd setenv auto-boot true
cmd saveenv
cmd fsboot

For some situations simply hold down power and home buttons for ten seconds without QuickPwn, didn't work for me though.
