Hi,
This tool unlock bml5 to allow writing of kernel with a simple "dd" command.
You can find also a basic update.zip for CWM that :
- Make backup of the current current
- Flash new kernel
The bmlunlock tool is in kernel_updater.zip.
How to use :
Put your zImage in the update.zip. Then, use CWM and install zip.
This tool was made by Koush (Thank to him ): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767431
also Thanks to Supercurio for the updater idea.

Is this hard todo? You just have to open the zip(not extract) and replace it with a new zimage.

I left it over night and it still stayed SAYING "android". I used this website (i am not aloud to put a website on this thread but google this and it will be the first one to come up):

No 11 is more like what could happen if stuff goes wrong...its not really a step, but more of a state your phone might go into if you do things wrong...
Kind of like "clearing the air", since people use the word "brick" too often...

Flash a stock rom, preferably of your region...
Sent from my g-fit using xda premium

Why dnt you try a different rom...
I suggest u fitdroid 3.5.. Its very nice..
Just download the fitdroid rar file and patch file. In your pc. G then connect your phone to pc..go toclockwork mod
and then go to advance then mount sd card.. Then the phone will connect to the pc now copy both files in the sd card.. Then unmount
navigate to the file and just flash it via clockwork..
remember 1st u hav to flash fitdroid file then flaash patch..

Ounce you have downloaded it you want to put it onto the root of your SD card. You can do this by putting it onto your external SD card and copying it over to the root of your phone.

Boot into CWMR. You can do this by shutting your phone down completely and ounce its shut off you hold down power and the volume Up button.
Step 4
After you boot into CWMR you want to install zip from SD card so hit the volume keys to move up and down and click install zip from SD card. Then you scroll down to where the Superuser zip file is and flash it.

Hi Vikram,
Thanks for your post..
Just a small correction in Step#4.
In order to go to CWMR, we need to press power.. and then press volume_Up and Home button simultaneously... and not Volume_Down..
I was following your instructions to the T.. and was not at all getting into CWMR mode.. as i thought for a second.. the hot keys combinations have changed..

how to push it via adb?

Try to install clockwork mod recovery and apply the update from sd card.
This may fix the problem.

Try with super one click. If this does not help you, then wait to hear from developers.
To use super one click you need your mobile USB drivers for PC. Download them and try rooting with super one click.

Framaroot
Hi Framaroot v1.4.1 worked for my GT-S6312 with Android v4.1.2 as well.
I picked the option 'Gandalf' during install and it rooted the device after a reboot. The only thing I had to do was change the language from German to English (Phone was shipped from Germany). The device is now rooted and I still have all my apps and data. Easiest root I've used so far.
