Issue with updating iOS7 on iPhone 4?

I swear I'm about ready to chuck this phone across the room!
Made sure my version of iTunes was the latest; have to download iOS 7 that way since my phone is just a 4, not 4S.
Spent lord knows how much time waiting for my phone to back up through iTunes and finally upload iOS 7. Now I'm going through the set-up on the phone and keep getting stuck on this one issue.
When I select "Restore from iTunes Backup," it prompts me to connect the phone to iTunes, which I do.iTunes recognizes the phone, syncs, etc. Phone says it's connected to iTunes. Then when iTunes tells me the sync is all done, my phone continues to tell me to connect. It won't let me move past the screen for setting up.
Please Help!
This phone is close to becoming as worthless and outdated as a paperweight.

I would setup as new then after that is done then I would restore it from backup. Hope it helps.
