If none of that works try Kingroot run it on your phone and it should root it for you

@lunatic59 Both Yes & No, they may want to:
fastboot boot recovery.img
so it'll just boot into the recovery and you can check to make sure it even works, which will also enable other options when booted.
The cmd:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Will indeed install the recovery.img to recovery partition

Wrong version of fastboot perhaps, or wrong recovery image?
