Hi,

I tried updating my jailbroken iPad from iOS 7 to 8 using the update option on itunes without doing a backup. Now its stuck at verify updated ipad software. I believe its not updated the software yet on the ipad and i dont want to lose the data on it.

How do i get back to the home screen on my ipad bypassing the connect to itunes screen so i can backup and restore?

I've tried holding down the home and power button for 10 seconds, it goes off, when i switch it back on, it shows the apple logo, but then goes back to the connect to itunes logo.
