Hi folks. I rooted my phone which worked great but the next day I tried to install Xposed. Instant boot loop! Wouldn't full boot even once and only gets to the Samsung splash screen. I found out through ADP consul that I most likely re-locked my boot loader after I rooted, I can't remember why...duh.
I think I may be out of luck though because I can't boot to recovery, only download mode and ODIN fails to flash a factory ROM. ADP see's the phone but says it's "unauthorized" so can't get in.
I've exhausted the info on the xda-developers forum so now I'm just grasping at straws I'm afraid. So any help will be appreciated and if you need more info I'd be glad to give it.
Thank you, Wally
