Hi,

I just went through the root process for my S4 using ODIN according to the instructions in El Androide Libre.

First I used CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar and my phone screen went black after putting the password.

Then I tried using the boot.img.tar and Kernel_XXUADMK.tar combo and now my phone freezes on the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo screen, not even allowing me to put my password or use the phone.

Any help would be appreciated, I might have missed a step or something, I just don't want to do anything else so I don't render my phone unusable, as there are pictures in it I want to save.

Thanks!
