Question Need help on rooting PRS-T2 using porkupan method

Hi,

I need to root my PRS-T2, and had tried many times with porkupan method, following these instructions:
http://web.archive.org/web/201411122...ic.php?t=25360

Here are what I've done so far:

1. Download required packages from:

https://projects.mobileread.com/read...sh%20packages/

2. Connected reader with PC, run flash_reader.bat (in jailbreak folder) with admin rights. flash_reader.bat copied some files to my reader and finished with this message: "Device is not connected to PC" - no reboot of my reader, no new firmware (see attachment)



FYI, I've tried to hard reset, reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package, with and without SD Card etc. Nothing changes. I also referred to

https://web.archive.org/web/20141127...ic.php?t=15576
but not many information.

Btw, do I need to copy "something" to the SD card?

Thanks.

Wow. I think I can answer this one:
