Gee thanks! I feel so loved here... LOL I even have a video to celebrate the moment. You can see the phone quietly self destructing on the coffee table!

Thanks I think I'm going to hope that the Jig thing gets it to the download screen then I can follow this guide

I know.... Long list.... I'm stupid for googling quickly instead of coming here... The worst part of this BF is always commenting on how I need to stop messing with the software on my phones and just leave them alone. Then I go and kill his phone within 30 minutes. I will never hear the end of this

Were your dogs mourning the dying phone in that video lol?

Congrats on getting it fixed, hope you are out of the "dog house" with the boyfriend now!

I think maybe they were! LMAO maybe I should listen to them more.

I had trouble flashing a rom. I gave up around 5am, so he woke up to a rooted stock themed phone this morning. Which is probably perfect for him! Haven't heard a peep out of him so I'm going to guess he's a happy new phone camper. I can't wait to try out that s beam thing! I'm so relieved that this worked out!
