Hello Sumo! Have you got this working yet?

Guys Sorry for the late reply. I couldn't take it for any longer. As it turned out a friend of mine hooked me up with another friend and the service provider. I spent about 15 to 20 mins there and I got the phone rebooted and updated with the new OS ( Ice cream Sandwich). Thanks all the same guys.

Hi,

I need help with the mentioned problem. I did one of these automatic firmware updates and on the reboot the phone got stuck in that "glowing S" phase, and it stays there forever.

I seriously don't know what to do with this. I can't get in to my phone I really hope you can help me

i guess hard reset can resolve this thing permanently from your phone. why i am saying this coz i have already tried it. when it comes to hard reset so i would say--hard reset is indeed a panacea for thousands of issues occur on a phone. Let me share few of my experiences with you guys, I had some sort of problem on my Galaxy S2, it used to freeze quite often, initially I did nothing and felt its just a normal thing and will be all right on its own. But I was totally wrong because the phone became more drastic only after a week. This was the time when i started searching for a remedy, searched a ton on internet and finally came across a solution; I would say the best solution rather. Something that helped me to get rid of the problems was this How to hard reset Samsung Galaxy S2 I got a strong feeling while I was reading your Blog and thought of contributing a little to help people like me. I mean those who are having problems on their phones like I have mentioned above.
