    I tried to update my iPhone last night to 5.0.1 while still preserving my baseband, now I'm stuck in recovery mode ( apple logo w/ usb icons)
    already tried holding power and home button method. Help!

    You phone is currently in recovery mode. You need to put it into DFU mode first, then restore it again.
