the only choice is "back button'' .. tipsypedro already posted the mtd.zip on the first page and

files_build_config.zip.. inside

files_build_config.zip is the boot.img.. is that what you need?

Yes is all the files that is needed

[Guest C3C0]

files_build_config is not the boot.img. Just the kernel configuration. We need full boot.img extracted from boot partition.

I don't know how to extract them without having root already.

Root exploits like psneuter and GingerBreak do not work on Skate.

But ZTE has released new factory updates to the Stock ROM of ZTE Skate.

[Guest C3C0]

This is not a ZTE Skate as we know it. Completely different device.

[Guest dentot]

is there any other way on how to root this device.. do you need any other files? build.prop or something.. i saw that file via es file explorer.. pls. help.. :(

[Guest dentot]

can we root it via cwm recovery? but we only have the stock recovery.. :(

[Guest C3C0]

We need compatible clockworkmod. To create it we need original kernel (boot.img)

I contacted Paul to ask him what exploit he used to gain local root on Skate to extract images. But no answer yet.

[Guest C3C0]

I'll try to compile kernel from sources to see if we can get the clockworkmod booting.

[Guest C3C0]

I need output of: cat /proc/mtd

The mtd.zip on the first page is empty

[Guest C3C0]

Made some real progress. Completing clockworkmod that we can try

to boot (not flash) so we can make a nandroid backup of stock rom + install superuser.

The good thing is we don't have to flash the clockworkmod but just boot it from external image.

This means no changes will be made to device at all so because it will not rewrite stock recovery.

I just need that cat /proc/mtd to double check the partition layout. Preparing the clockworkmod package will be

a question of couple of minutes after that.

C'mon guys. I don't have the whole day for this :)

[Guest C3C0]

Use full editor (more reply options)

Or just paste it here. It's not too much of text.
