3GS wont go past Apple logo

[aleicgrant]

hey all

Running my 3GS for sometime now with no issues, I have latest firmware with blackra1n JB and Unlock.

Today while making a call I got a call failed notice and the screen froze. So I decided to do a hard boot and now the phone wont go past the Apple logo. I had this happen once before and that was when I made the mistake of restoring and had my baseband forever changed.

I am looking for suggestions options because quite frankly there are a bunch of pictures on there of my kid I really dont want to lose and of course they were added after my last sync.

Any ideas? Really appreciate the help

anyone, I really need to get those pictures PLEASE

Hold home and power till it shuts off, then let go. Hold home and power for 15 seconds, then hold power for 2 seconds. See if it boots.

Or try the rock app desktop client and see if that can boot it, or google watchdog process disable - not sure if this is relevant on 3 firmwares worked for me on 2 before though.

im confused, what does rock app desktop do to help this?
