Iphone 5 stuck in recovery mode? - 2

I have an iPhone5 is jailbroken but was having some problems so I decided to update to ios 7 My phone is now stuck in recovery mode telling me to connect to iTunes, iTunes pops up with a notice saying "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes". However iTunes displays "Your iPhone software is up to date… " then has a button to "Restore iPhone" when I click this, it starts downloading iOs7 again, while it downloads iOs7 it keeps disconnecting my iPhone, making the pop-up come back. What can I do to fix this

You take it to the nerd herd at apple and hope you aren't the proud owner of a spendy brick.

Turn off phone using both home and sleep button together til the screen comes black. Then keep home button pressed til apple logo appears then release home button and press up volume key. The device should boot up in safe mode. Then go into cydia and remove mobile substrate. After that turn off device and turn on device. Now you can restore and update ios in iTunes.

Hope it helps/.
