Does it boot? If you can boot rooting and certain apps can recover the images. Debug from USB should still be able to recover certain partitions even if the phone is not completely bootable.
It boots, goes to the main screen for 1 second, then reboots and starts over again. My PC recognizes it for about a second.

huh? Sorry, I don't understand.

Nope. Doesn't recognize.

After that I set up a drop box account and set it to auto back up every night. I'll never get back the three months of photos that I lost but at least I got everything new covered.

I really hope you can recover the data!
Thanks.

If it happens to be hardware that may be something that can't be helped.
My phone was working fine all week. Like I said, I was sitting there, reading a book, and it started randomly rebooting.
