My friend has some problems with rooting. He has an ST17i (Active)bought from Sweden.

He has working ADB drivers (he can type adb devices and get some letters and numbers)

But the rooting process is filled with 'Permisson deny' , 'No such file or directory' and other failed messages. He has FW 4.1.B.0.431 (the latest here in Sweden) There is no operator lock or something. Log from the runme.bat:

"andorid emulator" trick

Credits go to all those involved in making this possible!

---------------------------------------------------------------

[*] This script will:

(1) root ur device using "andorid emulator" trick

(2) install Busybox (1.18.4)

(3) install SU files (ICS specific)

(4) do some checks for free space, tmp directory

(will remove Google Maps if required)

[*] Before u begin:

(1) make sure u have installed adb drivers for ur device

(2) enable "USB DEBUGGING"

from (Menu\Settings\Developer Options\Development)

(3) enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES"

from (Menu\Settings\Security)

(4) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes

(5) connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC

(6) skip "PC Companion Software" prompt on device
