Appuyez sur une touche pour continuer... I finaly did it !!! And i found out the true reason why i made it work. Some guy in the chinese most popular android forum did say that the results were really random depending on ram. Zergrush is based on a ram exploit, since creezalird told us he installed a lot of things, i was thinking that maybe he didn't clean his phone ram, but i clean it all the time. So i loaded 2 gameloft games in RAM, 3 making the phone crash because not enough memory, i did not close the games, just running in the background. Then i ran doomlord's script, and it worked ! ZCKI1 kernel rooted ! Thanks to everybody here for their feedback, i'll myself continue to post on this board since we all own the same phone, and it's always usefull to share experience. congratz man, finally u found ur way in..so its the memory after all..

Sorry if it took me 1 hour or more to give some feedback, but installing android market and google apps gave me hard time too hahaha ! i just tried the "memory crash" test myself again, flashing back to 2.3.6 and reset everything to stock. now, install some app, in my case 2 GPS navigations (papago and copilot), ran as many apps as possible and close it using home button, not back button. check with task manager, ram usage should be at least 500mb and above. i've tested with around 400mb but without luck. now time to run the doomlord script. and it worked, twice for me. thanks kldoc for the explaination i think if another people also succeed using this theory, OP should add this to the frontpage This post has been edited by creezalird: Dec 2 2011, 11:48 PM

On my way Junior Member 504 posts Joined: May 2011 From: Semenyih, Beranang, Lenggeng	no need to re-ran or whatsoever , one time run only make sure the ram is showing 500mb/0.91gb in task manager. then ran script. all other precautions like killing kies app is implemented currently backing up my rom using CWM, i flashed over superatmos kernel to get the CWM recovery using ktool This post has been edited by creezalird: Dec 3 2011, 12:11 AM

[/quote] just bought last 2 weeks =.=\|\| [/quote] go download the JK2 firmware from the first page and also download odin and the pit file. after that use the second method guide as reference, not fully follow, just as reference to update basically make sure usb debug ticked, unknown sources ticked, adb driver installed ran odin select pit file select firmware file as PDA ( here u need to extract the firmware zip first and get the *.tar.md5 file inside, select this md5 file) start flashing. after finish all that, u need to follow the first guide. but make sure memory usage are high like 500mb above

On my way Junior Member 504 posts Joined: May 2011 From: Semenyih, Beranang, Lenggeng	nope, i never use any antivirus as i usually just being cautious with my surfing habits, and even it is not proven working after all i've tested with fresh stock firmware, just add 2 gps apps, as usually gps apps use high RAM. other than that, i just ran everything and close with HOME button. just try it, it wont kill u..LOLS This post has been edited by creezalird: Dec 3 2011, 01:18 PM

On my way Junior Member 504 posts Joined: May 2011 From: Semenyih, Beranang, Lenggeng	lols, CWM : clockworkmod recovery, usually used to flash custom rom and also make backup rom, get from rooted kernel such as superatmos or mygkernel ktool : a tool developed by Hellcat(maybe), used for flashing kernel and also for backup EFS, get from market EFS : it is a folder where sensitive information like IMEI number are stored, a backup should be done to prevent if worse case somehow u lost the data setcpu or no-frills cpu : get from market or xda, from xda u can get setcpu full version.

Am i right? Added on December 3, 2011, 8:32 pm Sorry~! I am living in Seremban... u are totally right with the steps, but please do your own rom backup first with CWM before flashing another rom haha, i am currently jumping around, currently at my parents house in kelantan, sometimes at my sisters Semenyih or Gombak.
