You have to hold the home AND power buttons for as long as it takes for the recovery screen to show.

It's not worth jailbreaking.

There is a fix for this. Attempt to use quickpwn again, only this time, since your phone is in dfu mode, it will ask you to take it out of dfu mode. Follow the instructions and voila.
