Does it just says root failed ? Maybe you should start the rooting process from the beginning of the tutorial (or) maybe your device is still on the previous Software version (i.e v10.0.3), make a check and do update your device if it's the previous update on your device and then try again rooting your device using this tutorial.

5 minute tutorial video on how to install clk
credit to cedesmith for creating the clk bootloader
if you run into this problem - "when I right click the google drivers file and hit install it says "The INF file you selected does not support this method of installation"
then you need to do this - the problem I had was resolved by changing my windows update settings. I had to change them to always install the best drivers for my device.That got me the boot loader drivers ,android sdk and adb. after that I follewed these steps from post #10: device manager>androiddevice>update software>browse my copmputer>let me choose>have disk>browse to .inf file>click or( double click) the.inf file and see if it will install."
Cant wait till they fix the rmnet issue with clk
nice work!!!
i will add your link to my OP ....

when I right click the google drivers file and hit install it says "The INF file you selected does not support this method of installation." I'm using same OS as you.

This is not true.....PPP is much more better....use the beta4 and you ' ll see that i'm right...some devs use beta5 that had problems and made that voice go around...then you have to find the best combination of files if you make a ROM based on cLK ....

My bootloader corrupted
Hi,
I was actually trying to put ICS on my device from GingerBread Nand.I connect device with USB and I was trying to Wipe using HD2 Nand Toolkit.As device reached 100%, it suppose to restart but in my case it hanged at 100% for 30 mins .Then I restart by removing the battery.Now when 3 color screen shows, it shows serial at the bottom but it change to usb when I connect to pc .The problem is now when I try to re-partition ,it says device is not connected.
So I thought I may be able to install windows by downloading actual rom from T-Mobile and place the file to sd card by renaming it to LEOIMG.nbh.I did it using a class 2 16Gb card.As I press both volume down key and power button, it goes right to the rainbow screen.Please help me!
Thanks for reading the issue.

1. Goto Device manager
2. Right click the s1bootdownload icon (which will have an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle)
3. Click update driver
4. Use manual install from computer option
5. select the folder where you extracted the zip file

Thanks a lot! It works!
Nobody mention models or what kind of rom does this program root why? is very funny no real data, any one with solid comments about models and rom versions?
Sorry if I'm rude but I think we need some info like what firmware version works with this root or any prerequisite should we have before rooting like bootloader being unlocked etc. Also a simple tutorial would be nice for newbies to avoid confusion. Ill test this out on the latest firmware [.108] on an unlocked bootloader and I will report if this is working.
Its booth for locked on unlocked bootloaders but for no already rooted devices (except rooted by our tool), its tested on last 3 android versions. There is 2 things, it can work or not work, you can try in jellybean and let me know (probaly not working). No more words here since tool is very easy and anybody know what to do with them Enjoy if you found them usefull and easy! Anybody can post detail installation here if allready used my aplication, I am lazy sory!
So I just tested it out and it works. So I figured out, why not just make a tutorial video since it's so simple. Here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06S9GUL9U5s
I enabled USB Debugging and Unknown Sources just to be sure.
No need unknown source since usb debuging is enought! Is not easy? I think very easy Did you tried my recovery after rooting, I just want to know how its working on z1, (you need to press volume button after blue led blink to enter into recovery)
It's really easy to root now. Just 1 click. CWM works too. Here's more proof that it works. Good work man

[FIX] Updated ADB Drivers for Nokia Devices
It was quite sad that Nokia Devs forgot to update the adb drivers after the update. The update also updated some configurations within adb and fastboot and as the drivers didn't have these updated configurations, they refused to be installed. But I'm still breathing so I made it happen.
Procedure:
1. Download Latest ADB Drivers from below and extract it's contents on to your desktop (or anywhere you like).
2. Connect your Nokia X/XL with USB Debugging On. (Settings-->USB Debugging).
3. Windows 8 users, you need to follow this guide to turn off signature verification. This is necessary as I cannot sign the drivers. Windows 7 users also have to do this by following this guide.
4. For Windows 7: Press Start and in search box, type "Device Manager" and open it.
For Windows 8: Use Search to find "Device Manager" and open it.
5. Now, under other device, right click the Nokia X with yellow triangle and choose "Update Driver".
6. Browse to the Nokia X Updated USB Drivers folder in the zip package. And let it install.
7. After some time, it will install and Nokia X ADB Composite drivers will be installed.
8. Do it for the other Nokia X with yellow triangle as well.
9. Done.
Downloads:
- Nokia ADB Drivers 13.9.14 : Added missing compatibility.
Configuring ADB:
Just copy the adb_usb.ini file found in the package to C:/Users/<Your username>/.android and replace the previous one (if any). Done!
Enjoy and now, you can use Nokia X Manager and flasher. Cheers.

CPU MTK6750T Octa-Core 1.5 GHz. This is the vendor page: https://www.banggood.com/Bluboo-S8-...re-4G-Smartphone-p-1177022.html?rmmds=myorder
Yes, I enabled usb debug.
Also install Windows_10_MTK_VCOM_USB_Preloader_Drivers. Without them, the error is the same.
