Root Public Mobile

So I got my replacement N861 and tried using junkies tool to flash my recovery and it wouldn't work either with the terminal or fastboot method. then i pulled the recoveries from the files folder and tried it with fastboot manually and it would send but not write... I was stumped at this point and tried switching usb cables, ports, rebooted my pc... and still no go. So then I got creative and in fastboot i used the fastboot boot c:\cwmt.img command and was able to boot into cwmt!!?? so I tried flashing the firmware partitions from my last N861 thinking that Public didn't like that I bricked the last phone they gave me in a day and locked the bootloader or something... and still could not for the life of me use junkies tool or adb or fastboot to flash my recovery... so then I got creative and made a very simple recovery flasher to be used with CWM and used the fastboot boot c:\cwmt.img command to boot back in to recovery... flashed it and then it worked... go figure... I wonder what it was...
 
glad you got it working :)

Question...where did my posts go? I posted some things on this thread that are now gone. I don't think they were offensive in any way. Weird

I actually believe you because I never used the zte tool or the ota. Thanks for straightening me out ;)

changed the file name
Partition_Updater_B07.zip | by superr for Warp Sequent

Well it worked out great because you had the b07 bootloader in there, with the online upgrading tool, I was able to get the update package for the b09 release with all the files in their raw form (no patch) and b09 seems to be the latest available package with the online tool... for now... I'm updloading it now, it will be up in a few

Sweet! Glad it helped :)
 
In the zip theres a zteroot.apk? how exactly does that work? i installed and i tapped root but it said mismatch version assuming that it knows that im on b11 rather than b09.
 
Yup

Take a look at this logcat. I'm I reading this right? Is it calling for version b15 or b21?
