Root New apps & frozen at lock screen & ADB su

[fleece]

My son has a Galaxy S I896 model, rooted, running Gingerbread build UXKH2 from Samsung. Is been running fine for 6 months since I originally rooted it.

He installed some apps recently, and the now it repeatedly freezes up at the security lock screen after a battery pull and boot. With USB connection from my PC, I can ADB into the shell and list files/directories, but trying the su command freezes up.

My son really doesn't want to loose his gaming data on the device.

Any suggestion for fixing the freeze and recovery?

I fixed it! Booted into Android Safe Mode by holding down the Menu button during boot, and uninstalled new apps that were misbehaving. My teenage son loves his father today.
