19I've finally managed to root the son of a *****! I used the Universal GB Root kit but with a small modification: I've added the GT-S5690 phone model to the getprop statements at the beginning of the file "META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script" assuming that it should work as well on this Samsung model. Well... it did work!
Here is the patched version of Universal GB Root:
Universal_GB_ROOT_v5_patched_for_S5690.zip
Mirror:
http://uploading.com/files/8m63916d/Universal_GB_ROOT_v5_patched_for_S5690.zip/
Here is the code (in red) that I've added to the "META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script":
Code:getprop("ro.product.product") == "GT-B7510"[COLOR="Red"] || getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-S5690" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-S5690"[/COLOR] );
Please post some feedback here, whether you succeed or not to root the phone using this workaround. I will let StoneBoyTony know about this, so he can integrate it in the official release of the Universal GB Root tool, if the solution proves to be stable and usable (so far I am the first to confirm that it works).
Regards,
Cristian3Hello , to get into recovery mode i tried this :
- press volume up, home button and power, then release power button and keep the rest until recovery mode appears.3Tried so far (without success):
zergRush -> failure (operation not permitted)
DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su -> failure
SuperOneClick v2.3.3 -> failure
adb reboot recovery (stock recovery), install update from sdcard, Universal_GB_ROOT.zip -> failure
My S5690 is running Android 2.3.6
baseband: S5690XXKL3
kernel: 2.6.35.7 official.alkon@androide #25
version number: GINGERBREAD.XXKL3
CSC: S5690OXFKL2
simlocked on: orange romania
Please help!
My intention is to actually remove the SIM lock, but I need access to nv_data.bin in order to search for the unlock code.
Regards.3Patched it to make it work on Latin American version (S5690L)
This will also work on S5690.

xenux55: most likely you have an incomplete file. Please test it on your PC using WinZip/7Zip or any other archive manager BEFORE you try to install it via the phone's recovery interface.
uhugyorgy: are you sure that bml15 is the file in charge with the sim lock on Galaxy Xcover S5690 phone model?
