I STRONGLY advise you not to go with that method there. I've tried it and bricked my phone (so have many others, apparently). There's a link on the first post about an updated method, which I didn't try, look for comments about that. But definitely don't try the original method, the only way to unbrick my phone was by JTAG, which was the last method before sending it to service.

Cheers!

I decided to pay £12.85 to Sammobile, and it was fairly easy as they gave me the code to unlock it, and was risk free as well.

thank you for helping me

I gave this phone away, didn't work with Rogers here so I tried the updated method. It worked. Just a heads up to anyone who finds this.
