I've tryed to root my NoBrand Legend fw1.31 BL0.43 with No Succes!!
I did the step1 but I cannot enter in recovery mode from bootloader. It appairs a black warning screen and the pc does'nt found the device so I cannot start the step2!
Once I restarted the phone I've the previous setting but in software information I got a ROM no-sign.

Is it branded or unbranded phone which ver of software u have?

Is it branded or unbranded phone which ver of software u have?

It's NOBRAND, fw 1.31, bootloader 0.43.

 

[Pirreballo]

Finally I've root it!
Run all the processes from a lite version of Windows XP!

The difficult part was to configure the drivers of Legend for adb, fastboot and bootloader mode: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg90765.html
After that another possible variant for my success may have been the change of the microSD which I created the Goldcard.
So, from windows, step1 did not give me more the error 42 and was able to load all necessary files on the device, consequently, has also completed the step2!

P.S. single bug found ... greater instability in wifi!

Cannot root my Legend

I have the same problem at Step 2. I get Error: Device not Found when it tries to load files to the phone and to the SD card. And I have that warning symbol on the phone screen. Is there something that you have to do so the computer can find the phone? I have the drivers there. What else do you need to do? Has anybody figured it out?
Thanks for any advice.
Jeff

Did you pass the step1 without problems?

If any error was encountered, step2 is likely to fail.

Have you checked your ROM/bootloader versions?

 

[dbezzegh]

win7 x64

Ok. So with win7 x64 the step1 was never done.
I rooted with my mac, that worked fine.
