I tried to jailbreak my 4S, now it's in a boot loop & I'm afraid I will lose my 950 music tracks?

I tried to jailbreak my 4s which was running IOS 7.0.2. Eventually after The CYDIA logo came on screen it showed READING KERNEL below and the rebooted and that was the end.

My phone is stuck on the endless reboot mode. I dont mind restoring the phone and i know iTunes will automatically update me to 7.1

My only concern is my 950 music tracks thats there on the phone. How can i retrive it? I have backedup the phone but forgot to backup the music and i dont have all those tracks with me anymore.

Please help.

I have tried (Reiboot) software and it didnt work. It failed to recognize the phone.

Well you had it all until you said that you did not back up the music nor have all the tracks. My word of advice would be restore your phone to 7.1 and cut your looses and get back whatever you can or just set it up as totally new and re add music or anything else yourself manually. At least you won't spend the weekend with a phone that won't work don't you think? Best of luck to you and Welcome to iMore. You came to the right place.

I agree with Jan.

I'd heard that if you hold the volume + plus power button it might help get you through the bootloop? It can't hurt to try it, can it?
