$100 paypal donation to whoever can help me!

I was messing around with the ONE-click-lag-fix thingy on this thread

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...41#post8353541

someone posted a "fix"

""you can fix the jpk issue by doing this:
after the failure, reboot the phone.
then with root explorer delete the file linux.ex2 in folder /data/ext2 this will give you back the space
open terminal emulator on phone and type:
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system

press home button and reapply the lagfix.
wait...
profit!"


So I went into my phone in /data and found linux.ex2 (although it wasn't in /ext2 it was just in /data) and I deleted it

and used the terminal commands etc.

I reset my phone and it books into the logo then turns black and turns off

I don't have the 3 button recovery mode enabled... I have ADB and stuff though

WHAT do I do ?

Please oh please tell me I didn't brick my phone

Please tell me how to fix this and I will give you $50 or $100 paypal right away

If it is bricked, what do I do to go about getting it replaced ?

Try: adb reboot recovery

And try a factory reset

Otherwise, you can boot into download mode by: adb reboot download and flash via Odin.

Where do I get ADB again (im at work) is there a tutorial ?

btw if this works Ill need your paypal info

You can use mke2fs to re-create linux.ex2

Ex. mke2fs /data/linux.ex2

This could get you booted up again. Then you could uninstall/reinstall the lagfix.

WAIT!!!!!!!: Before you do anything else!!! Look for /sdcard/linux.ex2 and see if it exists. This should be a backup that can be restored. Copy this back to data and you should be good to go. Might take a while to copy but it should work.

I'm fairly new -- this is the problem

What do you mean "look" for it ? I can't even open up my phone -- it goes black on the boot screen (i shouldn't have deleted linux.ex2)

So I would assume this would be done through ADB ? I'm downloading it now

I would need to know the commands to type to "restore" this file basically once I get ADB running

and if it works, please PM me your paypal info

I downloaded the android development SDK -- but when I ran it i got this: "Failed to fetch URL http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/rep...repository.xml, reason: dl-ssl.google.com"

Is this b/c I'm at work ? (firewall)

do I need to connect in order to use ADB ?
