IPhone stuck on Apple Screen

I believe that I know quite a bit about iPhones' etc. But am completely stuck with this.

I have a Jail broken iPhone 4 and I had just downloaded something off Cydia.
Then my phone froze so I decided to leave it for a while, after an hour or two I attempted to put the phone into DFU mode which worked. Although now it's completely stuck on the Apple logo.

I have tried holding down the home and wake buttons etc. (every possible way) with no success, I'm able to restore it but I'M NOT going to do that, because stupidly I haven't backed up the phone in the whole year or so I've had it, so resting isn't an option.

I have an idea but don't know if it will work.

Idea: I want to download Recboot and use it to enter Recovery Mode, then use it to get out of recovery mode, would this work?

If anyone can help me with this I would be IMMENSELY grateful.

I don't know if recboot has been updated to still work as i tried it some time back to no avail. Maybe trying plugging the charger in, or let the battery completely drain out then charge it from scratch. Sometimes little things like this do the job.

Give recboot a shot though. Could work. Its a simple one click process, will certainly do no harm.
