Hello Guys,

I need help in recovering from boot loop on my N9. I was using latest Qtweak version 9.3.5a
I was trying Tweak Y: Customize the Statusbar Clock & Clock UI
-->Customize statusbar clock-->Custom
I tried few strings with custom colours and it worked fine.
Then I guess I tried some string like %R and colour FF0000 and phone rebooted. After that it went into boot loop.
After many reboots , I got to attached screen which advised me to update the software.
Actually I have installed many apps, have lots of music, videos and put literally hours to make my N9 the way it was before reboot.
If I flash it , I guess I will lose apps and customisations.
Music , Videos will stay.
Also I haven't taken backup of contacts since last 4-5 days and they were not synced with cloud , so I guess i will lose whatever few numbers I added in that time
I can flash device , as I have done many times earlier.

But I wanted to know if there is any other way?
Like by manually changing files which Tweak Y changes to default values? Problem is that now N9 doesn't show as mass memory or by other means if I connect it to PC. I have tried both in Windows and Linux Mint.

Please let me know if any one of you have faced such issue and any solution.
I am going to wait for 1-2 days and then flash if no solution is found.

I am sure there must be some way to connect such N9 to PC , then access its file system.

Please let me know if you have any solution to get out of boot loop without flashing.

Thanks in Advance.
