Root [Merit] Complete ZTE Merit Guide: Root, Flash Recovery and Install New ROM (with links)

It has been a while now since I've did this. I think it was post 113 & 114 you should look at. you have to push the su file by running cmd from the folder it is in.
 
They're all in the "all things root" section for this device if you look through it a bit. Look for one.three (which will have one.(0-2) as well), MH-1.0 (which is more superuser centric), MH1.0.1E (for some Eurpoean flavor, but runs like 1.0) and a ROM by a user named brohn (which is still progressing)
 
You all have been beyond helpful so far but I still need a bit of help, I get through steps 1 through 13 fine with the # symbol, and it reboots, once I get to 14 it says adb: not found, and you mentioned before I need to open a command prompt in another folder? what folder and how do I do that, because I've just been using the same command promt.

After "adb shell", you don't need to type adb, as it is not a binary on your device. The shell operates from within your phone.

EDIT:
Upon closer inspection, remount and push are done outside the shell, from cmd.
 
Again it has been a while but as I remember your already in adb so you type "remount" only. If you followed these institutions: (Place the file called "su" into your adb
"Tools" folder. I believe it is usually somewhere
like: program files/android/android-sdk/tools) then open program files/android/android-sdk/tools & right click on tools in the tool bar in the window. You need to select run cmd from here. Fallow the institutions in step 14.
 
ok, i'm a noob and i cant even get started on the first step. when i type adb shell it says device not found. what do i do????
 
i downloaded adb tools, i have usb debugging turned on, i hookup the usb, run the cmd prompt and it just says device not found. do i have to download some drivers first? mass storage is off.
 
Once you have root & Super User then Root Uninstall works with the one.three rom but I don't think I even tired with the stock room after root.
 
Is debugging turned on?

I hated the stick rom do I no longer even have it to look at & it has been a while since I did this.
 
i got it to work, i had to go to my computer and install the drivers that come with the phone on the G: drive. thanks for the "my computer" help.
