I got a Samsung Galaxy S 4g from a friend and I tried to root it via this youtube vid:

How to Root Samsung Galaxy S 4G Gingerbread 2.3.6 Part 1

Well I got to the end where the phone started Talking and a static screen showed up into an infinite boot loop.
Now the only thing I can do is get into download mode. But no recovery mode and no startup.

Can I save my phone or is it garbage? :*(
