I installed the necessary drivers on the phone but cannot get this ****ing thing past the second reboot stage. I've tried SD card in and out. I am about to put this phone through a window. Help please?
You do realize rooting isn't covered under a replacement right? Have you looked on the Android forums?
Yes. The phone is working fine, it simply will not root. Went through Android forums and YouTube videos and finally discovered that the most current software (three days old, totally stupid to update it) cannot be rooted.
What new features are you looking to gain by rooting?
