So I know I most likely have to wait awhile for the breakout to be rooted. I was just wondering if any of the developers on this site where actually looking at doing it as we speak? I have tried using other methods currently out there to see and no luck so far.
Just got mine. Looking to root too.
I have also tried many different root methods none of which have proved successful. I recently had to upgrade from a droid incredible.i also have the Asus transformer which is the financial reason I had to settle with the Pantech. With the upgrade I lost my free tethering ability, I am now back to the Incredible until I can figure out how to root the Pantech. If anybody has some knight please let me know thanks.
not sure if this will help but I posted the breakout system dump here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18211013#post18211013
I also found how to get into recovery by powerng off then holding power and the search button while powering on. However I am still unable to root. Maybe I am not understanding what the system dump is.
A system dump is when a dev gets the phone to copy the entire Android OS to the computer sort of like a dump truck dumping it's content into a hole you made (in layman's terms). This allows the devs unfettered and unrestricted access to the core of the phone's software components which they use to find a flaw in the system that allows the phone to be rooted. That's step one.
Step 2 is after the phone's OS has been rooted is to use that to gain access to the phone's boot loader and install a 3rd party recovery (like clockwork) that will show up when you press the power button + the search button. Right now you only get the stock Pantech bootloader area which does nothing unless you have the Pantech stock firmware and a special software verification key. You have neither.
Step 3 is then using the stock firmware dump to create custom, flashable ROM's which you can then flash using the 3rd party recovery software.
We're well into step one with the system dump. I'm gonna grab it and see what exactly they did to stop Gingerbreak.
Thanks for the information D.. I am going crazy I had just bought my Asus transformer so did not have enough money to buy the Bionic. Verizon initially told me i would be able to use the Pantech for unlimited tethering since I had a grandfathered plan now they told me it would be 30$ for 2gb a month. I am in desperate need to root the Breakout if anybody has any insight it would be much appreciated
[Q] How to root a pantech breakout
Is there a way to root a pantech breakout yet? I have tried superonclick, gingerbreak, and z4mod with no luck & I am running android os v 2.3.3 gingerbreaed.
Not yet, from what I've seen. And I'm with ya, tried all the current rooters. But looks like Google patched something in the 2.3.3 release that blocks the current methods. Hopefully someone will find something soon (wish I knew enough about programming). This is an awesome little phone, and with a little root and customization, will be amazing.

have you tried the wifi hotspot app on market? It works for the breakout and u don't neeed to signup for mobile hotspot.
I am unable to find any apps that support wifi tethering on the Breakout. I have tried many including barnacle, pdanet, and more all to no avail. The only way I am able to use the Breakout as a hotspot is by using the preinstalled verizon app. I am currently on an ulimited everything plan and have been given a month free tethering. however, I am being told that I have a 2gb monthly limit and will be charged for any overages even with the "free" month. It was my understanding that having an unlimited data/web plan that tethering would follow suite, guess not. If anybody can offer some advice it would be greatly appreciated.
getting my breakout tomorrow...hopefully someone figures out how to root this thing!
tethering app
I found the tethering app that works for the Pantech Breakout. It works as a widget instead of an actual app but it goes off your unlimited data plan and it doesnn't require root. It is called tethering widget by HI-DEVELOP XD
Is there any way to upgrade ma os version to 2.3 .......???

Would any developer be interested in rooting this crap (breakout) for some money?

So the wifi hotspot app doesn't require root or mobile hotspot? I can't find it in the market, can you give me a hint?

People are saying that because it has a locked bootloader, but that hasn't stopped Devs on other phones, so I am holding out hope for our Pantechs!
it's pretty unrootable(at the moment)
i had my breakout since it was released and have tried various methods to root it.
I even bricked mine while trying a method i was pretty sure would unlock the bootloader.so (for now) it is not rootable.
Hey guys! I have a question, is there any possibility to install without root quick remote from LG G2. It has a lot more features. I tried something but I still have not succeeded. Does anyone have experience with this?
Yeah... I searching for this, since i bought this phone ( 1yrear ago... ). Tried to install G2 qremote, but phone resiss to instal it. It would be very nice, if somebody wuold find a driver, so LG IR's would work with apps from google play.
BTW, my phone is rooted
yea i want that too, our qremote sucks but G3 qremote work perfect my friend have it and work like a charm, can some one make a port for d605 plzzzzzz
I can't seem to find any info here (or anywhere else, really) for this device made by Chinese manufacturer JXD. Here is a link: http://www.jxd.hk/game-console/s192/
It runs the nVidia Kepler chipset. This means, in theory, I should be able to wipe this device and flash the nVidia Shield Tablet K1 stock ROM on it. I can't seem to find any information on how to do it, though. Looks like there is very little information about this particular manufacturer in general. I was wondering if anyone here has any information about this device they can share with me?
Thanks.
Hi, was just able to root mine using kingoroot (pc version) moments ago.
https://www.kingoapp.com/root-tutorials/how-to-root-android-4.4.htm
GL! Hope someone would make a marshmallow rom for this great device..
Kingoroot installs some apps with it on your pc and device so just uninstall them too.
Hello
at the moment there is nothing that's a shame for a jxd device does not upgrade a marshmallow
The device is great to play but this way it only uses for retro games
P.S I HOPE THAT SOMEONE VERY GOOD WE CAN HELP
BUT I BELIEVE THAT NO MAYBE it ABLE TO UPDATE THE JXD SINGULARITY
good day
Can you guys give a review of this device?
I'd like to know how the controls feel (compared to an xbox gamepad)
Additionally, I'd like to know how it works with PS4 remote play apk and moonlight (for PC streaming)
As for how to for flashing..etc I could definitely work on that as I'm looking to buy one but I'd like to know more about the device since there are ZERO reviews out there for this.
The controls are well built and it is really comfortable to hold. I had this for 4months and loved it. Unfortunately one of the joystick broke and had to return it. Return process was dodgy but luckily I got my money back. Now I have the GPD XD. User experience wise I liked the JXD S192 more.. Though mine broke, I'd still pick the JXD S192 over the GPD XD if given the chance. The screen was awesome for any gaming.. I'd honestly say they hit the sweet spot design wise.
***********WARNING FLASH/INSTALL @ YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!!*************
I do not take any responsibility if anything were to go wrong in the process of installing any apps to your device!!!!!!
Hey Guys
So I recently brought the JXD S192k of GearBest and the first thought that came to mind was how i was going to root it just like all my other android devices, little did I know just how difficult it was gonna be to find any information regarding the root process.
All searches regarding this device and obtaining root were fruitless, it didn't matter what I searched under there's just isn't anything out there!
Frustrated I turned to Kingoroot only to find myself more frustrated as i needed to reroot everytime i restarted the device, each time taking longer than the last and keeping this thing ON was not an option.
Then.........I happened to stumble across something that changed everything, looking through the official JXD digital site I saw that they had a Firmware available for the previous version the S192 and in amongst the files was a Root apk. So I thought to myself there isn't much of a difference between the 2 devices so I downloaded it from the Mega site and transferred it to my device.
Once it installed it was just like the Chinese version of Kingoroot and even through everything was in Chinese you could pity much make out what you needed to press. The process it didn't take long and with the 2 root checker apps installed I confirmed that I indeed rooted my device so I went ahead and installed BusyBox to the system.
The best thing about this process is not having to worry about losing root upon restarting, there's one thing that I should mention is NOT to install any sort of SuperSu apks or zip files as you'll get a error message stating the SU binary is occupied. Just use the INBUILT supersu that comes with the Root apk and you should be fine.
Here's some screen shots taken from my system to show that it does work, along with my system details taken from Device info apk.
Hopefully someone out there in the XDA community can expand on what I've stumbled across in the hopes that one day we'll be able to get a custom recovery for our machines.
I have owned the sinigularity for about 4-5 years and I think its an awesome bit of gear for what it is. The controls work fine and feel good in the hand and I've used it with remotr linked to my PC and and found it did work fine for games that didn't require split second reflex timing but there was a little lag. Over all it worked great and you can run your PC remotely from other rooms in your house (if you wanted too).
The 10,000 mah battery is the real deal and has plenty of playtime.
I use it a lot for playing movies and link it to a projector via the HDMI output. The screen is a great size and I don't know how they didn't become more popular.
I only found this thread because I was looking for firmware upgrades but as you all know there doesn't seem to be any. Either way I'm still using it but it would be nice if they had support.
Any help on rooting this phone would be greatly appreciated, even if it's just to tell me that it's not going to happen...
I've scoured the forums trying to find some info on rooting my LG Premier Pro LTE (LML414DL) from straight talk. I know the chances get pretty slim with cheap phones that don't have a removable battery but I saw a few sites with info for the Lml413dl (not sure if the root for this one will work because of the radio) which is the same phone with a few minor changes as far as I can tell but I don't know if there is really any support for rooting this phone.
I know it's a low end phone but it's all I can get at the moment. I'm going to try to get at least an LG Stylo 4 (Preferably a lower priced Xiaomi or Honor) in a couple of weeks but I would still like to be able to do something productive with this device because of the severe limitations of an Unrooted device. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
I am looking for the same thing. I have tried a lot of different root methods and so far nada.
Is a Root for LML414 Straight Talk
I am looking for a Root for my phone can anyone help and how do i unlock it ....tyvm:fingers-crossed:
Can we just use twrp and misgk to get root access?
Anybody got any news on some workaround etc in rooting? I have been searching like crazy but no success.
I've just bought a Reno4 Pro. Love the device but detest the factory software, so desperate to blow in a decent ROM.
