EDIT : I ROOTED IT SUCCESSFULLY USING THE METHOD BELOW[ do it at your own risk.. i am just sharing info and i am not the author etc of the scripts or drivers or anything .. ] /B]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
How i rooted it ?
i first installed enabled the USB Debugging from settings--> Developer options..
i also enabled unknown sources .. settins --> security --> unknown sources ..
then i connected the phone to computer (xp sp3) and it prompted for drivers ..
i had download this drivers
http://www.4shared.com/rar/0MvyztbR/usb_driver_MT65xx_Android_ZTE_.html
and then extracted it to a folder .. in the xp driver prompt i pointed it there and installed the drivers ...
rebooted xp machine ..
and my phone was unpluged from system ..
then i downloaded the following file
Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v17.zip from the thread which i mentioned above ... for which i am giving link again below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
read that post thoroghly .. and be sure to have a backup .. and read the ill effects of it on that forum .. and do all on your own risk ..
while i didnt red anything and had no backup whatsoever .. but everyone should have a safe side .. dont want to scare u.. hahaha
and extracted it .. then i opened the RootMe.bat and then i connected my phone .. and let it do what it wanted ..
during the process my set got rebooted 2 or 3 times .. untile the above file said .. success .. dont close it until all the steps are done and it says u to do so ..
hope by the end u should have a rooted clone s3 .. then update SuperSu and su binary ..

Try Superoneclick, that seems to work for most phones.

my father got it in china .. its price is like 165 US dollars..
it is real android 4.1.9 .. its display is not amold or super amoled .. but its very crisp .. physically its 1 to 1 replica .. it has dual sim .. though the other sim slot was hidden and a dummy sim was there and a sticker was pasted over it to hide it .. i removed that sticker and got it double simed .. one is normal sized sim .. other is micro sim ..
its camera etc is all ok .. much better .. but definitely not comparable to samsung .. sound is awesome .. build quality is superb..
the only google app is the google play store .. its working out of the box. but it lacks maps . navigation. gtalk. and youtube. we will be able to get them after rooting .. hovever it has flash support so it works with youtube through browser .
it has gps and all bla bla ..
if u want to buy it .. buy the dual core version .. which has mt6577 chip .. not mt6575 chip .. the dual core is realy fast due to many cores ..
pm me for further queires regarding this set ..
superoneclick is not working..

Give it a shot!
Thanks for the info, searched the web a bit, well as your device is running Jellybean/ICS and you have a Armv7 processor and evn the analyzer confirms your phone as GT-I9300, You can use these methods given here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28178105 , try flashing through stock recovery first or else push the files....
If I have helped you, kindly thank me by pressing the THANKS button, means a lot to me.. A newbie here

we dont even know its manafacture3r how can we find its rom . hahaha
frankly its risk to do so .. we may brick it ..
however we may proceede slowly ... by first finding a cwm for it..
and urs is not like mine .. urs is showing quadcore ..
can u use android analyzer and post its result on their site and give us the token number as i did ?
is urs mtk6575 ?

Just rooted android 4.1.1 mtk 6577 gt-i93000
Thanks for the great work!!!!!
Had tried on simular device running 4.1.9 mtk657 i9300 clone.......success. However, after reboot, it runs slow with pop up error.
It acts as if out of ram?
any ideas?

it should not give errors ..
on other device that i rooted it gave me touchwiz error . and after using format /data and /cache from stock recovery all was ok .. and i was also rooted as root info is stored in /system which is not formated ..
