[General Questions and Answers] o2bryanc:
Hello all,

If I have posted this in the wrong place please lmk and I will be happy to delete this thread and post a new one. My questions have to do with the Huawei M650. The actual model is the Sprint Express PCDM650KT. It was actually an Obama phone issued by i-wireless. This phone is a strange cat to say the least. I have spent the last 2 weeks trying to find any info. at all re: rooting and finally stumbled upon DooMLoRD's easy root in a post about the unpopular M650 by Jerdog. The phone did not even come with enough room on the hard drive to update the bloatware that came with the phone.

Here is the error message I get when trying to install DL''s easy root toolkit. Any help would be welcomed.

Thanks,

Ryan C.
