dont know how u guys

but so far i had 3 pieces of ace2

and i didnt had to root a single one, box rooted the phone (at least thats what it says in the log)

all 3 phones unlocked nice and easy without root

just remember to use UART(C3300) cable when phone restarts to finish the unlocking process

Copy files to SD CARD power on handset as normal go to memory card and copy update_su.zip file to handset... By finding file on memory card then holding another option will come up then copy to handset...
NOW VOL UP + HOME and find update_su.zip file (IT WILL NOT READ IF YOUR TRYING TO ROOT FROM SD CARD ONLY) it dosen't recognise there's a memory card in the handset...

thats the way to go , thank you

1) Download and install SAMSUNG USB Drivers for Mobile Phones
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...0#post11633550

2) Copy update_su.zip to internal sdcard.

3) Switch off the phone and enter to download mode ("Vol Down + Home + Power").
Wait until the driver will be installed and Odin will recognize the phone!

4) Flash I8160XXLD8_ready_to_root_ANT.tar.md5 using Odin as PDA part.

5) Turn off the phone again and enter to recovery mode ("Vol Up + Home + Power").

6) Select "apply update from sdcard" and choose update_su.zip file

7) Reboot the phone

8) Got root?

Simply Use Vroot To Root the phone takes less then 5 minutes - unlock via z3x - then enter 00000000 when asked for NCK.
