try putting it in duf mode.( if it doesnt make a sound on your computer then you have to time it.) if u dnt know how to do it. hold the top and bottem butten Dow for 10 secs then let go of the bottom one till u here a sound on ur computer
Edit: my answer. This does work (for me at least..) because I had this exact problem (jailbroken iPod touch stuck on recovery mode screen) and I just kept experimenting to fix it. You're going to need a different computer with the latest iTunes installed. Simple turn on iTunes, plug in your iPod touch with the new computer and it should say that iTunes has found an iPod in recovery mode. Press ok and click 'restore'. Then just go through the rest and you'll be downloading the latest firmware for you iPod Touch. Hope this helps you and other people with this problem.
Edit: if that doesn't work then trick your iPod touch! How? by doing this:
1. launch blackra1n or download it
2. "click make it ra1n"
3.let it shut your iPod touch off
4.then while it says "running" turn your iPod touch on rapidly......
5. slide or put in passcode if needed then enjoy your iPod
:)
OR HOLD SLEEP AND HOME FOR ABOUT 30, MORE LIKELY THAT THE IPOD IS GOING TO TURN OFF BEFORE 30 SECS

Where is installer on the iPhone?
Im not sure what you mean by installer but I assume your talking about apps. If you want to install apps you can download them from the app store and it will automatically install.Or you can download on itunes and sync to iPhone. If you have jailbroken you need to install 'installous' on cydia by adding hackulous as a source . Search how to install installous. For a normal iPhone that hasn't been jailbroken you don't need a extra program. But for jailbroken you need installous.
