Forum Thread: Jailbroken iPhone 5 with iOS 7 charges from wall charger but is not detected on iTunes except in DFU mode

I don't want to do either as I have no backup and don't want to upgrade to iOS 8 and lose my current jailbreak. Initially I thought it was a jailbreak or Cydia apps problem, but after booting in the "no substrate mode" I still got no difference in the detection via the iTunes.
