[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kokokranc:
Dear all,

my method ultimately becomes obselete now. to root, you can just use one of these 2 methods:

1. Ishuaji

2. e-root

the supersu included is in chinese, so you might need to flash CWM to change to english supersu.

as for flashing CWM, you can find tutorials using Mobileuncle.

thanks!

Detail of files:

Method:

1. Download all related files

Pretty self explanatory. Download and extract all files.

First, download and install USB Driver:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/f7h1f7i7skggmtg/ZTE+Driver.rar

2. Install Driver

We need 2 drivers to be installed:

- ZTE_Handset_USB_Driver.exe

- JoinMe_for_Android.exe

the Joinme driver is needed when flashing custom CWM. However, it didn't work for me. so I installed zte_mtk6573_drivers_cdc+vcom+adb_v1.1136.0.zip manually. To install it, remove battery from phone, connect to usb. Wait for computer to start searching for drivers, select Browse for drivers and select the vcom drivers downloaded.

3. Flash custom CWM

1. Open Flash_tool.exe from SP Flash Tool v3.1216.05 folder extracted earlier.

2. Click "Scatter-loading". Select "MT6575_Android_scatter.txt" that you downloaded earlier.

6. If you see below the application, it will say "Searching" next to NAND. Time to plug in your phone. DON'T FORGET TO REMOVE THE BATTERY BEFORE PLUGGING IN YOUR PHONE.

7. Now you're done flashing, it's time to boot into CWM. Unplug the phone from USB. Put on battery. Press Vol+ & Power Button simultaneously. When ZTE logo appear, RELEASE ALL BUTTON.

8. Let's hope you boot straight into CWM

If you have this, then CONGRATULATIONS! you are now a step away from root!

4. Install Root & Busybox zip file using CWM

1. Copy the "Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2-Update1-signed.zip" onto the root of SD Card on your phone as normally you would (I wouldn't elaborate since this is android 101 knowledge)

2. Boot into Clockworkmod (CWM) recovery. To do this, turn off your phone normally. 5 seconds after the phone vibrates (fully off), press volume up (vol+) and power button. Wait until ZTE logo appears, then release both buttons.

If you do this correctly, you will see "CWM v 5.5.0.4 for ZTE V"

to navigate, use volume up (vol+) & volume down (vol-). to select, use power button.

3. Select "install zip from SD CARD" > "Choose zip from sdcard" > Look for "Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2-Update1-signed.zip". REMEMBER: Navigate using volume button, select using power button.

then, confirm by selecting "Yes - Install Root_Superuser_" and pressing power button.

when completed, go back to main menu and select reboot.

if nothing goes wrong, you will see SuperUser and busybox icon in your App drawer.

UPDATE:
