I haven't bought the phone yet but I did some research and found 2 methods but none on english :S

Hungarian - http://data.hu/get/6493358/Alcetel_OT_6030D_Root_HowTo.pdf

German - http://www.android-hilfe.de/5684068-post10.html

I tryed to translate the German text via Google, here it goes...


-Download first the files

CWM Recovery 6030D
Cwm Recovery 6.0.2.8 Neu!! Optional
MTK Droid & Tools 2.44 (without warez)
TWRP Recovery 2.4.4.0
VCOM Drivers
SpFlashtool
************************************************** ************************************************** *
MobileUncle Tools
Mobile Uncle Tools 2.8.0

-So you can very easy to flash the patched recovery

Here we go:
-Idol connected on the PC (USB debug mode must be active) and install drivers if needed
-(Must be quick startup disabled) SPFlash run tools, Scatter file and then load cwm recovery to download press idol off
-Idol on the Pc connected (the drivers are installed automatically)
-The SPflashTools will now flash the Cwm recovery. If a green circle appears everything went well.

-Unplug the cable, run MTKDroidTools.
-Switch on with Power & Volume + and simultaneously connect the smartphone to the PC
-Once this is recognized (as comic characters will appear, but everything is ok), go to "root, backup, recovery and super user click on it that can be installed.
-The display during the root process remains dark all the time with me. So do not panic
-Unplug the cable, wait a minute and long press on the power button until the logo appears idol
-I had to update suspersu (after first boot) ... but is normal.
-You can also make a backup, although that will not be complete. Important is the boot.img and recovery.img are here.

-caution: After a reboot the CWM recovery is overwritten by the stock recovery. Personally, I would leave it there so far is no 100% functional recovery

The idol is now rooted
The CWM and TWRP recovery is not 100% functional. The Custpack partitions get no support.

edit
With Mtk Droid Root Tools & backup works fine)

Hope I helped Cant wait to get the phone, just 20 days to go...

What are your impressions about the phone?

Edit: Forgot to say, this is for 6030D but it will maybe work on the other two models... Hopefully

I do not have enough knowledge to do a this, + none of the tutorial is on in English ...

I successfully rooted all my other android devices, gt i5500, Galaxy Ace, Galaxy Tab 2, Huawei G300, but this Alcatel giving me a headache ...

Look at this:

In Idol in default.prop is "ro.secure=1" , so we need to dump boot.img and set "ro.secure=0"

Hey Guys,

I have created the Hungarian document so will guide you through but will definitely need some time.

Let me know if you need help!

Please check the scatter file maybe it's incorrect. Try re-creating it once again. The Cusotm Recovery has to be smaller or equal than the recovery partition size in the scatter file.

Finallx got the phone! It's so cool! Love the slim box and it's sooo fast! Anyway, i read something about the phone losing the DRM licence after root. Now, what does this DRM licence do and can we use this phone normally without it? As much as i got it, this has something to do with the licences for the apps...

After losing DRM, you can lose GSM signal all the way, I do not want to play with it...

@H377

Are we losing DRM after rooting?

Is that tutorial for 6030X also?

Does stock recovery owerwrite custom cwm (which we need to install) after rooting/rebooting?

Hi,

I still can use all the features on the phone after root, so I'm not quite sure if we loose anything. Still can play videos, MP3s, so all the apps work. Haven't noticed anything yet.

I think you can root the 6030X also with this procedure just be sure that you use your own scatter file extracted from your own phone. Then you cannot really mess anything up.

If you flash the stock recovery to the phone after rooting it will definitely overwrite the custom one. So normally it doesn't overwrite it automatically only if you manually flash it.

So I need to download stock recovery with flash tool, to flash after rooting?

Also, cwm recovery in tutorial is good, no need to mod any other recovery, just to use scatter which I made with MTK?

It depends on:

If you have rooted the phone you can leave the custom CWM on it no need to reflash the stock recovery. But if you want to you can flash the stock back. It's all up to you.

I'm asking because I do not need cwm for now, just need root and everything else to be stock... Thanks, I will try this method...
