So, you should be able to do either the SimpleRoot method or follow the instructions in post #1 for your appropriate version.

I'm hoping you just tried the wrong SimpleRoot method. For your phone, you need to use this version - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720565

If that's the one you tried and couldn't get it to work, I'm not sure you'll be able to do it through this tutorial either. SimpleRoot automatically does what this tutorial has you do manually. The steps are the same but the only difference is SimpleRoot does them all for you.

If you want to try doing it the manual method, follow Section 5 in Post #1.
Like I stated in my original post my phone is ok up to this step

"cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/local/flash_image
chmod 755 /data/local/flash_image
/data/local/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img"

I know i'm copying files to the device because as soon as I execute the cmd the phone starts saying low on disk space
