    Many thanx! I screwed up rooting my gingerbread and ran into looping after turning on wifi. This guide and the download helped me fix it! Thumbs up. Now trying to install ICS without bricking the thing :)

    THANK YOU MATE!! My phone had the problem connecting to wifi.. When i connected to wifi it basically turned my phone off and when i tried to turn it off it wouldn't turn it off! So it basically kept turning my phone of and on and off and on.

    When you boot your phone, it should say it in the bottom, OR go to: Settings > About phone, it should say it in "Firmware version" or some crap.

    When I try to put it into download mode, the steps I did were holding down: volume DOWN button + Home button + Power button after one another. When it rebooted, it showed "Galaxy S i9000 blahblah, and it kept flashing after 3 seconds until it rebooted and went to the home screen. Help? I'll send a video response!

    I will buy this phone tomorrow. It will probably come with 2.1 eclair. I want to upgrade it. The best way is via kies, isn't it? Should I upgrade to 2.2 or 2.3? Also, if I upgrade to 2.3 via kies, will I be able to root it and use superuser? Help please..
