Hey Mac, I know you posted for the s5360, but does your Root work for the S5363? (I know that they are the same series, hence I would assume that it would work) I’m not able to root it thus far. I’ve tried just about everything I can think of (even modding the *_script file in notepad) and still I get “Installation Aborted…”
Any thoughts???
i havent tried the same on GT-S5363.. so not sure about it… sorry
Dear select the second option “Download” in green u will need no registered account…
