Root Help :( Galaxy 551 freezes while turning on.

I just ordered a new samsung galaxy 551 phone and i got it in the mail and it was working great, the only thing it didn't have was Hebrew fonts so i looked online and found out that if i root the phone then download hebrew fonts it would work. so i followed all the steps super carefully and it looked like it was going to work...but it didn't.
so i clicked "run" on the "reboot now" option on the gscript lite app, and my phone turned off, but then when it turned on it got stuck as it was turning on.
i've tried turning it on, turning it off, clearing the SD card, everything and nothing has worked.
i've tried reseting it to factory settings and wiping the cache, and still whenever i turn it on it gets stuck and doesnt get to the home page.
it still charges.
please help i'm completely out of ideas of what to do and i've only had the phone for 3 days.
Please please please help me out!

is the installation Guide for Custom ROMs

But I will suggest you to follow the official Samsung Repair Guide

1.)Register at samfirmware.com
2.)Link for the Odin Flash Guide Login - www.SamFirmware.com
3.)Download the Guide
4.)Go to Login - www.SamFirmware.com is the page
5.)Download Odin 4.34 and OPS file ( Callisto.ops)
6.)Here you have many options to download firmware .
Either go for the I5510XWKD4 which is Android 2.2.2 (Froyo)
Either go for the I5510XWKP5 which is Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread)
7.)Follow the instructions in guide
You will need Four files for KD4 (Bootloader,CSC,PDA and PHONE) which are in the rar file
You will need one file for Gingerbread (One Package Option)

Cheers !

So I got to step number 5 and found the OPS file, but not the Odin 4.34? Where is that?
