Hi there, I am a new user on smartphones and in this Forum, my English is not the best so I do hope you will bare with me. That being said I did already try to root my device and managed to turn it into Invalid Kernel !!! mode. However after reading many good advices, and trying out methods via pc I actually succeded in getting it running again, so for that thanks alot. Now I do still have 2 problems: one, every time i try to back up, turn off, restart etc. my padfone 2 goes right back to the invalid Kernel !!! mode, and I do the hole disciplin all over again. I read and try and so on....!!!!???? the second problem is that now after getting it started again using pin kode it asks for a password which I did not make ond therefor do not know. NOw I am really getting desperat does anyone have a solution???
