thank You for quick response. I tried before with norenaming .zip as I downloaded, and still dont working. A is wrote above i choose:  install .zip from sdcard, then choose zip from sdcard  then /ROMS/atomic-2.0.zip. Still i see report in CWM: "finding update package, opening update package, istaling update and Instalation aborted". You think that upgrade CWM changing something?

Have you checked to make sure the zip isn't corrupted?

I would like try with cm7 but when i dowloaded the two last version, they have diffierent md5, which tilal6991 give .

I downloaded once agine cm7, md5 are the same, and now innstalation is complete!:-)

Glad you fixed it sometimes re-downloading  a ROM solves the problem.

Hi i also have the Medion P4310 and its not simlocked I use it in Belgium.

And no super user is not unlocking, the links for unlocking ar at the bottom in the links section.

I dont think there are simlocked Medion phones. Have you tried putting a new sim in LOL

I think you should let users know that after rooting, wifi stop working.

No, it does not.

what are you talking about After unlocking maybe, but rooting is pretty safe

Maybe you are mistaking rooting with, sim unlocking. The only thing that could happen is that your phone gets in a bootloop if you do superboot for the wrong android version. And i warned people so if you just follow this tutorial you should be fine.

Dude, Im not mistaking anything.. I followed the guide step by step and after rooting, wifi stopped working. Since it's not my phone Ive done some research and I found on the internet that it does mess something in kernel.
So I flashed back to Stock ROM but with ROOT and CWM included.

This was the build on the phone before I tried to root it:


I'm just saying that if it happened to me it can happen to someone else. And people should be aware of that.

Ok i believe you.

Did you change your rom or did you do superboot? And did you solve this yet. If not try flashing a other ROM and see if that soved it.

If other people also have this problem i will add it to the tutorial, but this is the package from a other topic wich has 13 pages and no one reported this problem.

All I did was:
1) installed all necessery drivers
2) ran 1_Install_Android_2.3.5_root.bat

when the phone booted, I couldnt start up Wifi. I went to Settings -> Wireless
and under the checkbox in Wi-Fi column there was ERROR.

So I downloaded stock ROM (it was modified - root was already included and cwm too) and flashed it.
All data in the phone were lost but nothing important since it was sinced and apps can be downloaded again.

[Wacky.ddw]

Weird

I have a other build,  for me and others it worked without problems. But i did clockworkmod first and changed ROM.

I only tried superboot afterwards in purpose of the tutorial, since i dont understand why people would stay at the slow and crappy stock orange or ZTE ROM.

imo flashing clockworkmod and custom ROMs is the way to go.

If other people also report this problem i wil edit the tutorial.

Anyway im glad you solved it

You probably used the 2.3.5 superboot that has the wifi error. Look later in the thread for the fixed one.

Part 4) Installing Superboot for beginners. (Johnny Hung’s package)

Please check your android version first. Go to: “Settings > About phone > Android version” Only continue if you have “2.3.4” of “2.3.5” else you could get your phone in a bootloop. If the version matches download this package: LINK

I changed the link in the part i quoted, that should be the right one.

But johnny hung uploaded a separate “super2root.img” in this post: LINK. Should i download that and replace it with the one in the package and reupload that. Or was that just a fix for that person?

This is the first time I have encountered with ZTE device and it's my mother's.
I don't know ZTE much so I'm afraid there is high chance it becomes damaged.
And I don't want to lose warranty (from my friends stories I heard techs doesn't look for Superuser app but they look for Custom ROMs).
That's why I don't want to change ROM.

[Wacky.ddw]

You would have to do much to completely brick it, if you have clockworkmod installed you also lose your warranty.

Imagine you need to send it back for warranty purposes, they hang the phone to their computer and reboot into recovery and see the stock recovery is replaced with clockworkmod. I guess they won’t give you warranty either. Then when they boot they get things like bla bla granted by super user…

If you ever want to go back to complete stock you can follow the part on that in my tutorial. Oryou could download a TPT put it on your SD card power on with volume + and power.

I recommend you completely unroot it before you send it back     .

I'm so confused, when i had my OSF all i did was download Universal Androot & Titanium as I just wanted to delete the Orange crap. This is so much more complex and I've downloaded the drivers, the phone rebooted etc but i can't see any Clockwork Mod on my phone. And it shows in device manager as ADB Interface, not what was said above.

Also don't want to risk losing Wi-fi as I'm probably too noob to fix it.

Is there not a more straight forward way to just delete the stock apps?!

Btw the guide is great really grateful for the work that's gone into it, I am just a worrier and don't want to break my new phone.
