Never heard of it. Let's hope someone will help us soon.
. Yes someone :\\
I've tried Unlock Root but it doesn' t work either. Someone...:crying:
z4root also not working :\\\
superoneclick not working :\\\
some other idea?
anyone?:crying::crying::crying::crying:damm
OT-995 is already rooted here.
You can download and try some other methods here and here and here.
The User Manual says it's a Platform MTK6573 processor.
This site says that is a dualcore from MTK6573 (650MHz) and NXP SGA531 (208 MHz).
This is the beginning of de OT-991 community, good luck everybody!
Are the speed and batterylife OK?
If I buy this phone and we succeed with rooting, I'll try to make a custom ROM.
Rooting Alcatel
You can always try Gingerbreak 1.2 version just google it
Unfortunately Gingerbreak 1.2 doesn't work on 2.3.3+. SuperOneClick stops in Step 7 and Universal Androot fails (the message is: No ~Fu goo ~ )
Battery lasts two to three days, depending on the usage. The speed is just fine but since the phone is unrooted I haven't installed too many applications yet.
This is the progress so far.
Maybe Googling some errors can help. It could be a problem on your computer or your USB cable, therefore somebody else should try too.
I'm doubting between the Samsung Galaxy Ace and the Alcatel OT-991. If we can root it, I'll buy the 991. If not, I think I'll just pay more and go for the Ace.
yes unlock root not working also not working:z4root,universalroot,and other apk xd,so some idea??
Great phone but we need Root the phone because is inpossible to instal more apps.Please someone came with the root for this phone.
I think that all those apps don't support this phone yet. There is another way to root, which is already mentioned before:

I don't know much about this but you have to press some buttons to get in a special menu where you can update your phone with a .zip file. That's a way to root and flash a ROM. Since I don't have this phone, I can't try, but I'll try to help you.
You can find more in this thread. Try some key combinations and if you can get into this menu. Good luck! I don't think this .zip file will work, but we can try others and make our own (with Google and a little help).
Hello , i found the update.zip on my SD card me , i have a alcatel ot 991

Hi all....
Yes, there are loads of threads on this, but it appears my own specific problem isn't mentioned anywhere and I'm hoping someone can help.
The normal 'update.zip' way or rooting (official) 2.3.3 just doesn't work on my Ace - I get the following error:
Applying Multi-CSC
Can't access to '/system/csc/h3g/system'
Installation aborted
I think it may be something to do with the three mobile firmware, but can't be sure - is there any way of rooting this so I can use Titanium Backup?
TIA

Yes, it is, and have also tried renaming it as suggested a couple of other places - very frustrating!
You're on stock recovery ? If yes , flash CWM and try again .

Hi,
Im on 3 and I rooted sucessfully (and unrooted) if you look on the android foums website in the galaxy ace section - look for a post uk gingerbread 3 network out today then read through there u should find out how.
It wont let me post a link on here!
Note the comment about the error.
Worked for me

The last time I tried CWM on my last Ace it totally bricked it! Not compatible, so reluctant to go down that road again unless I know for sure it won't brick it. I was lucky enough to get the bricked one swapped out as faulty as it was less than a week old.....
EDIT: Actually, it was ROM Manager that bricked the phone, but I'm wary of anything with the 'ClockWorkMod' name attached to it!

I'll go find the thread, thanks.....
EDIT: Found it, but although my own errors as described in my 1st post, it definitely isn't rooted after it.... no root privileges for Titanium or anything else when trying to run them.....
Does anyone know if there's a compatible CWM for the Ace? I mean one that doesn't brick it when you select 'Backup' from the CWM menu!!

No joy - I did get CWM installed, and did a backup but still can't root the stupid thing. CWM gives less info on the problem than Samsung recovery....

Installation aborted.
I think I'll just have to give up as it appears no one else has this problem so it's not likely to be solved.... at least it never got bricked this time...
I actually downloaded the update.zip again and tried..... different error in CWM, but much more info this time......
I think your only way to root is to flash a custom ROM .

Ta - what custom ROM's are available, is there a list anywhere? Is there anything actually better than 2.3.3?
I guess since I can't use TB I'd need to reinstall all my apps again if I flashed a custom ROM!! *Groan*
you can try cf-root by ketut.kumajaya
Tried VillanROM (three times) but no keyboard - seems like a common problem with it. Don't think I fancy the cf-root. Too many files available at the bottom of the post and don't know which one to use, plus many pages of problems with it, so I think I'll pass.....
I too own an SGA (2.3.3) on 3 and rooted it using this zip:
http://db.tt/6YsR3WVM
I selected "install zip from sdcard" instead of "install update from sdcard".
Worked first time for me. Hope that helps =)
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Tis' OK - I put 2.3.4 on it, then CodeROM v2, so it's now rooted anyway.... at last!!
Thanks to all.

this method and the 993D has stopped working after a kernel upgrade, try this this way, if the last time out, then and now should.
Sorry for translate.google
1. download the utility View attachment unlockbootloader.rar
2. Unzip to your C drive
3. Run and choose unlockbootloader.exe ROOT Your Background
4. Wait for all operations. Console appears that self-close after the completion of the process of obtaining mouth
5. Download and install SuperSU

As I can see from your other posts you rooted the 997D with the Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v15 solution. After that you did the system firmware update and you don't have root anymore?
I also updated the firmware of my 997D through my phone settings/about phone/system updates/check for update and after that I first tried to root my phone with the Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v15 utility and it didn't work.
Is there any way to rollback our firmware?

Before running unlockbootloader try to disable antivirus, and run as administrator.
root
i'm pretty sure the update is preventing the root. Badluck for us then? i know a bit of android, but i'm no developer so i can't make a rootfix by my own
Anyone here has some knowledge to get our nice device rooted?

The root is not working with that tool
SuperOneClick: Step #7 .. after that, freeze
same here, tried both superoneclick and the binary root, both don't work anymore.
Nice move from alcatel to fix root in an update, if i only knew this before i updated
Also tried Unlockroot 3.0 (which was updated recently) but it doesn't work
ok, found this out, when you shut down the phone, press volume up + power button, phone starts in android recovery mode 3e, any possible chance to get the phone rooted this way?
c'mon guy's i want this phone rooted, getting resolution problems with games (software buttons of ics hide some of the screen) can't start some gps apps because of this stupid software buttons)
anyone dare to try this: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?ldao6p9eyjuu1f9
I'm prepared to even pay for a working root, so if anyone has found a way, pls contact me at pm
Any news on this subject? I love the phone, but I miss the SetCPU profiles I used on my previous phone, and a battery meter with percentage...
Nothing yet, I have tried every available method soc,unlockroot,bin4ary etc and nothing works after the firmware update.
Is there anyone who hasn't done the firmware update and can root his phone? If yes please do a factory reset and take a backup of his ROM and upload.
I guess our best bet would be a port of CWM recovery. Maybe I'll backup the stock recovery and use the CWM recovery builder this evening if I have the time

I'll reply to myself: no way, since you need to be rooted in order to dump the stock recovery. Maybe if someone could try to extract the OTA update so we could examine the files and look if the recovery.img is there...
---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 PM ----------
Ok, I have managed to get something.
Following this tutorial by Bruno Martins (a well known rom cooker who's also a user here) I've been able to dump recovery.img from my Alcatel OT-997D: http://bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.com.es/2012/04/creating-rom-dump-of-your-mt65x3-device.html
The tutotial was meant for MT6513 and MT6573 devices, but looks like it works on MT6577 too.
Then, I've used that file with the Clockworkmod recovery builder at http://builder.clockworkmod.com/ and now I have another recovery image, which is supposed to be a CWM port for our Alcatel.
I'm still unsure to flash that recovery, since I can't be sure it will work. Mediatek based phones do not have a fastboot mode, so it's impossible to just try a recovery image without actually flashing it. In fastboot mode, you can boot the phone into a custom recovery without actually flashing it, so you risk nothing if it doesn't work
In case someone daring enough wants to try my custom recovery, I've uploaded it to my Mediafire account: http://www.mediafire.com/?7232aj7jhg7l4e5
The idea is that, with a working CWM recovery, it should be possible to flash Chainfire's SuperSU root zip and easily root the phone.
Of course I warn you this could ruin the recovery image on your phone, so don't risk doing it if you're not sure.
Welcome. Today I did the root method and ministro2 poot.

Does anyone know how to root Alcatel Ot-903?
I have tried Gingerbreak, Super One Click and One Click Root but neither worked. I would rather do this through an apk than my pc because my pc is quite slow. Please reply if there is a way.[

ot 903 root
Use EROOT, you can google it. Its in Chinese. Let it load, press root. When done reboot manually, or superuser wont work. Then download mtk root and tools to create auto build cwm recovery.
