Hello and welcome to Android Central!

Contrary to the previous post, there are a number of things that you can do to get your phone up and running. Here are a few simple questions that need to be answered first....

1. Which model of Galaxy S5 do you have? (see #1.2 of 41 Galaxy S5 models - Dummies Guide. You may have to look at the sticker under the battery as you cannot boot.)

2. Which method did you use to attempt your root?
