Maybe someone in this thread can help me out.
I wrote this tutorial in a hurry, so I understand that there may be some things I can improve. The steps are all there and accurate, but it seems like I'm missing something because I keep getting questions that I thought were answered.

In the FAQ, the 1st question is
Q. I did the OTA 1.47.651.1 can I still root my phone?
A. Scroll down and follow the steps in ****ROOTING AFTER OTA 1.47.651.1****


The section is called -****ROOTING AFTER OTA 1.47.651.1****

In the description I wrote -
This is for Root access after someone has applied the OTA 1.47.651.1. If you accepted the OTA or it was done for you when you bought your phone, use this guide.

I specifically said -
If it says "1.47.651.1" this guide is for you.
If you're on version "1.32.651.1" or "1.32.651.6" then use the ****ROOTING Part I and Part II (Full Root)**** instructions in section 1 & 2 of the first post.

So what can I write to make it abundantly clear that anyone w/ OTA 1.47.651.1 needs section 5 to Root their phone.
