ZTE Mimosa Mini [Root]

True... The sad thing is that I just need root, so I can delete and install some apps. I don't need custom roms at all, I am happy with the one I have.
 
Will try, reporting in few minutes.

EDIT:

Poot won't even install, just says application not installed when I try to.

EDIT:

Other poot apk installed...

Downloading needed libraries from app manually as it says that ministro won't satisfy my needs :P
 
how can you make it work? can't find a program that roots it with this exploit?

I didn't find anything, but I read here that it should be possible. Still waiting for one of the experienced guys to confrim

Levitator: Root on your Android phone | Fortinet Security Blog


Also on this forums were download links, but deleted :P

Method 2 - Levitator

- You need to install SuperUser separately from the market (but only once), if you don't already have it on your phone.
- Then install m9.r00t.apk.
- Open it, press "Get r00t", wait for confirmation (very fast), and that's it!

The app has inbuilt auto start - activate once, and then your phone will be temprooted on boot. To disable, press "Un00t phone"

This would work too, I just need lucky patcher and titanium back up...
 
I don't know really. Like I said I am waiting for penguin or other guys from this topic. If there is a way to root it via this exploit they will know it.
 
i have the program lemme find it

youll need to run this via adbshell/terminal


When you say run via adbshell/terminal (I have terminal emulator installed on my phone) do you mean I should type all of this or just one part or something completely different?

Ok, I'll have to check it out tomorrow since It's getting late here. You just leave what is to be downloaded and instructions and I'll try it first thing tomorrow and let you know. If it works I shall forever be in your debt...

P.S.

Here is the link to what I have copied over :D

enable usb debugging
extract teh zip and run teh script within :)

ive never used this exploit so lemme know h ow this all works out

Damn, device not found... I don't have ADB like I said. So it doesn't recognize debugging. You hear usual sound when you connect debugging, then additional 3 beeps. As soon as I find right drivers I shall try... Storage mode works good.

(As you can see in the pic few posts above there is Android Phone then Android Composite ADB interface, which is what I need, had it before, but I just re-installed my OS on pc 2 days ago and lost it)
