Is there a way to get out of recovery mode without restoring my iphone

I was trying to update to ios 7 beta 5 and my iphone seemed to be updating it was about 3/4 the way and then it crashed and sent me into an endless recovery mode loop. i tried rebooting it a couple times but it does work. is there a way for me to get it out of recovery mode thats not restoring it?

No.
If you're a registered developer, you should be smart enough to be using a device dedicated to development and testing...

Go elsewhere. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

IPhone 3GS froze during iOS 5.1.1 update - how do I get out of recovery mode without having to restore?

So I tried to update my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5.1.1, like iTunes told me to do, and it froze part way through the installation for a couple of hours. I tried to "reset" the iPhone by pressing both the home and power buttons simultaneously, but now iTunes tells me my iPhone is in recovery mode. From my limited knowledge, it seems I need to restore my iPhone, but I don't want to lose anything, like my SMS history.
Is there a way to get out of recovery mode without having to restore?
Thanks!

I came across this post as my iPhone 3Gs had gone into recovery mode on its own accord.   I had hundreds of photos unsaved and was gutted when I saw this post, I felt even worse as it was not the information (gdgmacguy) I wanted to read.
Unfortunately, the above post is simply wrong! A system cannot destroy information in a blink of an eye.   If it were that easy, the forensic teams across the world would have a hard time. A criminal could simply force a phone into recovery to remove all the data. Please!
I managed not only to take the phone out of recovery mode but also, salvaged all the data held on it.
To be fair, I am a little annoyed at Apple for not offering a salvage option on the device for such a situation. And it may be that they will not like me sharing this information, in which case I believe this view to be morally wrong because photos are so important. We all make mistakes, in terms of forgetting to backup from time to time.
What I used was the Redsn0w software, running as an administrator in XP compatibility mode. In the ‘Extras’ section it as a Recovery Fix option. It simply runs some software that takes the device out of recovery mode. I had to run it twice for some reason but the second time (out of desperation) worked a treat. The phone is now exactly as it was before it went into recovery mode. More to the point, it allowed me to backup all the photos and videos that I had failed to do before hand. And let’s face it, photos and videos are usually the most valuable stuff we keep on our phones.
I hope this help anyone in the same situation. I really hope someone from apple reads it and is able to convince the bosses that a recovery option is very important. And to take note that YES it is possible to recover data on a phone stuck in recovery mode. And more than likely it would be easier for apple, compared to other non-apple professionals.
Good luck.

Is there a way to get iphone 4s out of recovery mode without restoring it?

i was just using my iphone 4s normally and it just froze randomly. i held down the power and home button like i usually do, because my phone freezes up on me somewhat often. i saw a "connect to itunes" screen that i have never seen before, and once i connected it to itunes, it said that it was in recovery mode and the only way i could use it is to restore it. problem: i don't want to lose everything on my phone! everytime i've tried to back it up something crashes so i've never been able to back it up, so if i restore it i've lost all my pictures for good. is there a way to get it out of recovery mode without restoring it? please help!

If it's in recovery mode, your data's almost certainly gone anyway.

How do I take my iPod out of "Recovery Mode" without restoring to factory settings?

(iPod 4th Gen, Windows 7)
I hadn't synced my iPod touch for a long time, because just before Christmas, my antivirus stopped working on my laptop, and I got a virus. I was unable to do anything. Because of my circumstances, I wasn't able to get my computer back to normal until just about a week ago. During the time I didn't have access to my computer, I made a lot of purchases in the iTunes app.
Now that I have access to my computer again, I tried to sync my iPod. Since it had been a while, I needed to update it. Something must have happened during the update, but I don't know what. All I know is that now my iPod will only show the "Connect to iTunes" screen (so I can't use it at all), and when I connect to iTunes, it says my iPod is in "Recovery Mode." My purchases were not synced to my computer.
iTunes says to restore it, but I don't want to do that because I would lose all of the purchases I've made since Christmas. They weren't synced, so they would be wiped if I restored it, and only what is on my laptop would be re-synced.
Bottom line: is there a way to get my iPod to work again, without restoring it to factory settings? If not, then I spent all of that money in iTunes, and now what? I'm supposed to buy it again?
Thanks for taking the time to read this; I know it's long. I just wanted to make sure all of the details were there, because I've scoured the internet, and no one has a solution for this, other than wiping the slate clean, downloading a program from who-knows-where, with who-knows-what viruses attached to it, or jailbreaking. And those are not options.

Yu can try to use this program to get the iPOd out of recovery mode.

Is there a way I can get my iPhone 4 out of recovery mode without restoring it?

I recently came back from an amazing trip to Europe and I took so many photos on my iPhone, sadly on the way back it froze so I put it into recovery mode because it wouldn't connect to iTunes. Finally it did, but now I have to restore it and I didn't even get a chance to sync my photos, apps, contacts, etc. Is there some sort of third party software that can assist me?

Hi,
Firstly, very sorry to hear this has happened to you, have you simply tried holding the home and top button in until you see the apple logo and seeing if this will reboot the iPhone?
I can understand your pain , there are some apps out there but I would not recommend for the novice user and I unfortunately there is no guarantee, if you are more novice, try googling "recboot", if your more advanced, you should google "ibooter"
Good luck.

How do you get your iPhone 5 out of recovery mode without restoring it?

I plugged in my phone and tried to update it to iOS 7.1.1 but something happened and it told me to plug my phone into itunes and restore it.
I have an iPhone 5, it's not jail broken.
I haven't gotten the chance to backup on phone on my new laptop yet so I have no way of getting all my photos and contacts back.
Please help!

There is no way to recover your content if you have no backups and once it is in recovery mode it is too late to back it up. Are you sure you didn't set it to back up automatically to iCloud as prompted when you first set it up? How about the backup from your previous computer?
