Afternoon all,
A mate of mine in Australia asked me how to root his SG2S so I pointed him in the direction of CNet's excellent video guide. He followed the video to the letter (pixel?), downloading all the right gear before he started. He even downloaded the kernel that was closest to the one he had in his phone already. Everything went fine, he got all the green lights from Odin without any error messages.
However, in rebooting he got as far as the startup screen with the yellow triangle and the phone just hung there. After an hour he pulled the battery and now the phone only boots as far as the initial screen and then just freezes. Any hints / tips / ideas? It sounds to me like the root didn't take effect properly and something's missing, but beyond that I'm a bit stuck.
The phone's details are as follows:
Model= GT-I9100
SSN = I9100GSMH
Kernel = GT-I9100_XWKL1_
He says he can start it in download mode, if that helps.
Cheers guys,
Hobbit.
