Hey, newbie rooter here...ive never rooted a phone before and i wanted to root mine now...and yes i know all the warnings that go along with it! my TU is running on 2.3.6 android and boost mobile if that matters and i need help rooting it. ive tried different tutorials and none have seemed to work for me. :( so if anyone could please help me out, it would be great! TIA.
 
yeah, i tried it..it got to the point where it said if you dont have this part filled in you messed up somewhere and mine wasnt. so i tried again and it did the same thing...but thank you!
 
sounds like you may not be in download mode? can you please list what you did step by step (the more detail the better)? otherwise Im just guessing at where its going wrong.
