Nightmare! I wanted to charge the iPhone by plugging it into the PC laptop and it asked "There are purchased items on the iPhone that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPhone. Are you sure you want to continue?" I hit Continue...

I then got an 1602 error after the upgrade had finished.

Now it has iTunes logo and USB plug image and has this even after a re-start to the iPhone.

I can't get iPhone out of recovery mode.

Now when phone is connected to PC iTunes says:

"iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."

I don't want to Restore and lose Apps and stuff I have written on it.

How do I get everything back?

We haven't done a jailbrake.

There's lots of conflicting info, do I re-install from iTunes, or get rid of iTunes on the PC reinstall it on the PC and then re-install the iPhone OS? Reinstall it from a MacBook Pro with iTunes? Or use some 3rd party software like TinyUmbrella?
