rooted! 
Good box, the initial foothold made me go crazy for all the resets… for who’s still struggling in the first part, especially if stuck on the p****** p*****, there is a quicker way with i********e, that could also be scripted for convenience 
Needed some nudges, so thanks for everyone who helped along the way!
root has been a breeze, too easy but hey, who cares…
Do i remember correctly … someone was saying that there is another way to get root?
