PLEASE HELP: zte z813 root help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, I'm new to XDA so please understand that I have searched all over the forums, but have not found the information I am looking for about my ZTE z813 Overture 2. I want to root this phone, but have found nothing on it. KingRoot does NOT work for it. There's no way possible that I will believe an Android 5.1 phone can not be rooted by this time when phones and tablets with 6.0 are being rooted every day. I'm not new to rooting, nor am I a noob when it comes to tech, so I would greatly appreciate any help with this! I've searched all over for the firmware, contacted ZTE USA, and even considered just simply slamming the phone into a brick wall. (No, I'd rather not do the last option, although, it's quickly starting to appeal to me.)
Phone info:
Brand: ZTE
Model: Z813
Name: Overture 2
Carrier: Cricket Wireless (yes, I know, they suck)
Android Version: 5.1
Baseband version: Z813H01
Kernel version: 3.10.49-g3d22cfa-00488-g8088fb1 [email protected]
Build number: Z813V1.7.23
Hardware version: wuzA
I have heard this phone be called the Xuantan before, but it's the Overture 2 as per Cricket.
Previous software I have tried includes, but is not limited to: Framaroot, iRoot, SRSRoot, KingRoot (both one-click and pc-based), and many other One-Click methods. Please, do not lock this thread and tell me to check with the Root Experts, as my device is not listed, nor is it under the "Other" section.
***Consider this a challenge for "The Experts". Find me a method to root this phone successfully, or else my ability to consider them "The Experts" has ceased to exist.
Thanks in advance and I'll humbly await your responses. :good:

Try the pc version of KINGO ROOT.Try it with charger,driver,mtp,and ptp settings.If it doesn't work,install the kingo superuser apk or kinguser apk and try to root again with the KINGO ROOT PC EDITION.Tell me what happens!!!

What do you mean when you say "Try it with charger,driver,mtp,and ptp settings?" I don't see a settings menu in the Kingo Root PC version I have installed (v1.5.1).

By the way. I tried 'charger', 'driver', 'MTP', & 'PTP' under 'Connect to PC' settings on the phone to no avail. I also tried it again after installing KingoSuperUser.apk & it still didn't work. Any ideas?

KingoRoot still failed on the ZTE Z813 even after entering "adb reboot disemmcwp" in adb powershell window. I've tried KingRoot, KingoRoot, Framaroot, Root Genius, & OneClickRoot to no avail.
