Help Rooting Vodafone Smart 2

[SystemCrash86]

I got this new android phone and I am very new to android and it turns out I need to root this phone and I don’t know how to do it with this model.

Vodafone Smart 2

Alcatel V860

Firmware Version 2.3.7

Build Number 01015

I need root to delete some of the factory apps and make space but the program I found to do it is called “SuperOneClick v2.3.3” and every time I run it the program keeps crashing half way through.

There is a video on youtube, the URL is

and this is my model phone and I follow the video exactly but when I get to the recovery menu mine is different. I am supposed to get options and menus but instead all I get every time is “All data will be lost, continue?” and that same message is repeated in different languages until you get to the bottom where there is a green tick and a red cross. The green tick wipes my phone back to its factory settings effectively erasing all my data and the red cross boots my phone like before, so nothing has changed.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

that is because of the kernel update on the phone you need gingerbreak installed on you phone and let it run it will take a while but when you have it done then you can aplly everything you need it just roots the phone you still need apps like root explorer and superuser
