For about two months I have been scouring the web looking for a way to root my wife's Huawei Ascend ii (M865c) from Straight Talk. I wasn't getting anywhere. I looked and tried any exploits I could find: zergrush psneuter rageagainstthecage motofail gingerbreak. Finally I stumbled across a new one called poot that was developed by a genius over at phandroid, giantpune. I created a walkthrough for rooting this phone using his method, however, he still deserves all the credit. You can find my guide by clicking on this link

In overview, you need to download poot.apk and ministro.apk and install both.
Then open poot.apk, it will download some needed libraries.
Then select the button to root the phone.
You will then need to reboot.
That should be it.
