After several retries worked on my phone.
Notice that windows mount 3 Removable disk drives, when I plug the USB connection cable:
– one for the Drivers, labeled Mobile Partner, with a green icon
– one for Internal memory
– one for SDCard
additionaly to the above steps I did:
5′ copy dLoad folder in the root of both Internal memory and SDCard drives
5′ deactivate Quick Start option from settings
5′ unplug USB cable before turn OFF
9′ plug USB cable after reboot
Don’t which one helped, but before this, point 8 was not happening.
I tested the su by creating a new user for my kid, see
How to Enable Multiple Users on your Jelly Bean Device
This really helped me…

Should it be pink screen after step 7 ?
It’s fine as long as it doesn’t generate an error.
I have super user on my phone now but no apps show in the list. I reckon this could be because I placed the dload folder just in the first list, not knowing where exactly internal memory is found and assuming it to be the default. any tips?
mine says it can’t find the specified path

ive got pink screen please help me 🙁
