How to get rid of the connect to iTunes screen on my iPhone?

I recently dropped my iPhone in water, and it was working fine after I recovered it- then I realized that I had no service and was given instructions to restore my phone. When I got home I saw that the screen was on "connect to iTunes" and so I did, but now iTunes is telling me that my device in recovery mode and to restore it. When I attempted to restore it iTunes told me I had an error1 and gave me a list things I could try, which included resetting my phone. I can't reset my iPhone because it's stuck on "connect to iTunes… Please help!

Did you try doing a check for updates for itunes? That may be the issue. If itunes is up to date call apple. They are going to need to help you from here.
