Step 2 : PREPARING YOUR COMPUTER FOR ROOTING

1. Download the attachment.
2. Download X8 drivers just in case your computer doesn't recognise your phone X8_drivers.zip

Step 3 : ROOTING

1. Connect your phone with pc (make sure debugging is on & memory card is unmounted)
2. open the Superoneclick thing and click root.

PS : if superoneclick doesn't work and give intialize errors than it may happen your computer doesnt have the latest .net frame work download it from here

Microsoft Net Framework

CLICK THUMBNAIL TO SEE FULL IMAGE
within few minutes it will root your phone & a confirmation message will come telling "DEVICE ROOTED"

CLICK THUMBNAIL TO SEE FULL IMAGE

it may happen you wont be successful on first try. but give it time like 5mins if nothing happens close superoneclick, disconnect your phone and connect it again and try again. it will surely work


PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE :D

ok what I did was....


I backed up my whole system with xrecovery
Updated my phone with SEUS, naturally lost all the roots and app2sd and all
than I used this thing and got my phone rooted
installed xrecovery again
booted my phone and xrecovery worked

enough proof for me to check the root

time to go back, I just did a restore and I was back at step 1 :D
 
ok juz for a clarification..

whn we do a backup using xrecovery, n after weve done this, n we do a restore through xrecovery, all the jit n app2sd will work right? or do we nid to do tht all again?

why do you need to root an already rooted phone?????????? lmao

I did it cuz whenever I post a tutorial here I do it only after I've tested on my cell :)
 
wow it works :)

i have a question about the add ons, should i install all the add ons on you post? or i can select which one i need?

i tried to skip xrecovery and apps2sd and tried JiT first but i cant make it work, noob here XD

thanks

what error do you get :)
 
If I want to change SD card in my moble, what should I do? Xrecovery? Copy paste from one card to another? Thnx!
 
do u have app2sd enabled?
if yes

than first create partitions in the new sdcard
than have a bck up in xrecovery
copy the xrecovery folder from the old sdcard to the new one
run xrecovery
do a restore

i think it should work :)
 
Thank you! (And now, just one question - should I change form 8GB class 2 to 4GB class 4 SD? -I mean, would it make a noticeable difference? )
 
Thnx, my brother will be thrilled when we swap cards. 8GB card for his nokia 5310 it doesn't matter wich class the card is :P

Unfortunately this method doesn't work. I've made backup on one card,and tried to restore on other (partitioned),but all it does is hang on first SE logo...guess I'll be staying on my class 2 card for now.
