[GUIDE] Rooting Orange Pasadena Branded ALCATEL OT-918 (v2.3.6)

The guide is for the Alcatel OT-918 (No D, N, MIX), single sim, Orange Pasadena, from Romania with Gingerbread 2.3.6, it might work on other versions to, but I can't guarantee that.
Care should be taken, while the Orange Pasadena is a cheap phone, modifying your software might turn your device in an unusable brick.
Unfortunately the Android version of this phone can't be rooted with superoneclick or other simpler methods.
First of all You need the following tools from the attached file:
USB Drivers
SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.00
AlcatelScatterRetriever01 - optional
Universal recovery for Alcatel OT918 (2.3.5 and 2.3.6)
Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/74256292/Pasadena/Orange_Pasadena_OT918_root.zip
1. Turn off the phone, and connect it to the computer (Windows XP/7) with an USB cable, and install the attached drivers
2. Create a scatter file with AlcatelScatterRetriever01,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(alternatively you can skip this step and use the scatter file from the OT-918_Orange_Pasadena_Branded folder)
3. Run Flash tool and open the scatter file
4. Check only the recovery file from the OT-918_Orange_Pasadena_Branded folder
Double check that all other checkboxes must be unchecked!
5. Click on download
6. Connect the turned off phone to the computer, the progress bar should change its color and after a short while a small window with a green circle and ok should appear.
If it's not working remove USB cable, the battery, and reconnect the battery and then the USB cable and try again.
7. Remove the battery and the SD-card
8. Copy Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to the SD-card
9. Replace the SD-card and the battery
10. Start the phone with the Volume UP and Power combo (release first the power button)
11. You should be in the OT-918N recovery, and should install the file Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip from the SD-card
12. Restart and enjoy your root-ed phone.
For UNROOT make a full wipe from recovery.
Repair information:
If you got an Orange Pasadena which would not boot or is in a bootloop, at step 4 select all the files from OT-918_Orange_Pasadena_Branded folder and go on with the guide.
At step 8 copy to the SD-card deepROM 2.3.6. from http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=323769&st=2320#entry16968462 ,
the file from http://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=%2BFgTiMPQgqQjcFeH30tIoZnLBEVANGQz3%2BeBBWub5m0%3D ,
which is the only functional custom rom as far as I know for this model of the phone.
If someone needs a functional (but incomplete) stock image feel free to p.m. me.
Still searching for a full stock image, which will be posted here.

Drivers
Hello,
At step "1: Turn off the phone, and connect it to the computer (Windows XP/7) with an USB cable, and install the attached drivers"
Witch one of the drivers should I install? I've tried everything, but the phone it is not recognized by the XP OS, and therefore the ASR.exe cannot generate the scattering file.
Please help, with more detailed procedure regarding the drivers.
Thank you,
Stro

It works, thank you!

Is there anyway to install another, more stable, Rom.
Maybe an original OT-918 ROM?
Thanks.

also I've tried to follow this tutorial to add the IMEI back ('cause now is null), but without any luck (I don't have any "write imei" button). can someone help me out please?

for your information
Device is rooted.

Any ideas?

Help
I've seen one or two threads that were in the same vein as this, but no clear resolution. Every time I open SuperSU, I get the message, "The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" I select "Continue," and am given the message to install it normally or through TWRP/CWM. If I try through TWRP, the phone restarts into TWRP, but does nothing. If I select "Normal," I get the "Installation failed!" message. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling SuperSU, but that didn't do anything.
In a related problem, I only have root access pretty much immediately after I reboot. Only immediately after I restart the phone can I use apps like WiFi Tether or Titanium.
I'm on stock, rooted 4.2.2. Any help would be great, thanks! :crying:

For problem with su binary updating but end up in failure you must delete set.immutables theres a guide on xda somewhere but you need termanal emulator on your device to remove

Flash the stock recoverys
Rebuild the Dalvik-cache

Which version of kinguser did you try?
Go to Facebook group page and download the kinguser.zip from there. For me it always works on g6-l11 and u-10

It's the same kinguser 3.4.0

Thanx for this one, but bootloader unlock isn't working. You have to have a code, I don't have one, so it says 'invalid key'. No i'm back stuck in fastboot mode where it says 'recovery image verify failed' followed by 'please updat to the authorised images'. So, this is not going well, dunno what to do...

File not found

Hello guys;
On the official website they indicate using the "firmware upgrade" option instead to "download only" and update the preloader.bin file. How should I proceed? another question: this process unlocks the bootloader and accesses the root?
