well i am curious if this whole mess was started when you tried to go back to stock and flashed the wrong firmware. because there are firmwares in that guide that are from different countries. if you flashed the wrong firmware, things could get bad.

so maybe it would work if i flash the right ROM?

 

[ocnbrze]

ok lets try kies

that is if you are going to use a different computer then the original, if by chance the original computer fails.
