Ive just plugged my phone into kies and it said i had a firmware upgrade. Followed all the instructions correctly. It completed ok, and said "firmware has successfully installed" etc. Now though the phone wont go past the boot screen. It just continuosly cycles through the flashing "Galaxy S" animation on start up. What has happend and what can i do!?

I was on 2.2 froyo which i had sucessfully upgraded to using Kies about 6 months ago when it came out.
 
I was just cruising through the forums and saw your message. I'm sorry that I'm unfamiliar with your device and keis. Have you tried powering down your device... pulling the battery out for a few.. replacing it and booting up? Not that it will gain you anything but it might. Hopefully another of your fellow users here will come to your aid. Welcome to AF robbie11, I hope you can resolve your problem.
