Hi,

I can't get my sgs rooted after a factory reset due to rebooting problems.

Anyone?
 
Is the phone in debug mode? Make sure it is. Do a factory reset one more time (from the recovery screen), set the phone up, enable debug mode, and try again.

I had the same issue before were it did not go the first time so I had to do the steps above and it worked fine the second time.

Success!
Don't forget to reboot!


thanks for your help, much appreciated! :)
 
For ages and ages, my Epic 4G refused to accept the 2.2.1 update over the air because I had previously rooted my phone--or so I thought. I never figured out what caused it, I ended up flashing a pre-rooted (but otherwise untouched) 2.2.1. ROM on there and it fixed all my problems. Was damn handy.
