[ROOT][GUIDE] Root your LAVA IRIS 501 Jellybean 4.1.1

[Guest Kamal882]

Yes,my phone is upgraded to jellybean.

If you have upgraded your phone to jellybean with the help of sp flash tools then it means driver is already installed in your pc.

[Guest Razvan19]

No,i get update from phone,i don't use sp flash tool for upgrade .

I read on several forums and i flash this phone,i installed MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.4.4 and i get this message :

ATTENTION! File /system/recovery-from-boot.p which restore factory recovery in case of phone switching on in a normal mode Is Found!

I install ES File Explorer and i try to rename..fail-/system is only for read,is not writable..

Any ideas ?
