I was changing my "bottombarknobgray@2x.png" file to a different on on my iphone 4 and when i rebooted, the phone cannot get past the apple, and the spinning activity circle thing. I have rebooted it a couple times but the same result. The icon i loaded is 130x102px, and 33 KB. I made the icon larger because i had read for the 2x icons they are generally double the size of the regular icon. I really do not want to restore it, but of course it that is whats needed, so be it.
What I am asking is there anything I can do to be able to access the phone and SSH into it so I can remove the added icon and put the old one back?
THANKS FOR ANYONES HELP!

So i can go to recovery mode, but Diskaid will not recognize it, nor will iDemocracy. Does anyone have any ideas?
 
Have you tried to press the home button and power button simultaneously for several seconds? Don't know if that is the remedy but I always do that when my phone is stuck on a screen. Just happened to me 10 mins ago and now it's perfectly functioning.
