IOMonster saved the day here, without him you would have to wipe your phone and install modified leaked firmware to get root.
Very glad we decided to not release the initial root, sorry
If IOMonster wants to explain he can, I would prefer not to however.

Here is what I did to get root on mine, maybe it will clear up things for others.
*Note, I am on 64bit Windows so folders will be different on 32bit windows.
On phone:
go to settings > Applications > Development > turn on USB Debugging
On Computer:
1-Download and install Pantech PC Suite from c724062.r62.cf2.rackcdn.com/PantechPCSuite_1.0.10.3314.exe
2-Launch Pantech PC Suite and update if it asks. When PC Suite is fully updated, plug phone into computer until device is recognized.
3-Download and install Android SDK from developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
4-Start SDK Manager and check the box next to “Android SDK Platform-tools” and install package.
5-Download prestoroot.img from dl.dropbox.com/u/9772722/XDA%20Forums/prestoroot.img and save it to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools”
6-Download cwm-5.0.2.7-presto.img from tau.shadowchild.nl/files/cwm-5.0.2.7-presto.img.zip and save it to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools” as well
7-Now open your command line and navigate it to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools” folder
Run the following command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
When the bootloader screen shows up on your phone then wait a few seconds to make sure your phone is recognized by the computer then run the following command
Code:
fastboot boot prestoroot.img
After phone reboots itself, shut the phone down and turn it back on again.
Then run the following command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
When the bootloader screen shows up again then type the following commands
Code:
fastboot flash recovery cwm-5.0.2.7-presto.img
fastboot reboot
8-When the phone boots up this time, download the play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noshufou.android.su superuser app[/URL] from Google Play

FYI,
I've tried uot.dakra.lt UOT Kitchen couple times so far and have been ale to change the font of the device and the color of the glow for overscrolling but my time and other icons up in the status bar disappeared (the "AT&T" still shows up there though). The Backup and Restore in CWM does work nicely though to get me back to before I installed the zip from UOT Kitchen. I'll try 1 mod at a time using UOT kitchen and see which is making the icons and time disappear from my status bar.
EDIT: I did notice one issue with CWM backups. The backup I did today saved the folder name as "1970-02-22.03.14.56". Some reason the date is wrong in the file naming, should have started with "2012-04-13", right?

For those having trouble with a missing driver I followed the below instructions and installed PDAnet (I did so while in fastboot mode so I could see the drivers install) as soon as it installed and the drivers showed installed. I went back and uninstalled pdanet (leaving the needed drivers behind)
hawkwind212 said:
I solved my problem by referencing to part II of the following page:
theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/Describe
Be sure to download two programs PDANet and USBView (which you may not really need but it's a nice little program).
It's suppose to be "stupid easy" to root PANETCH Burst, but who ever said that left out that it's not so easy if you don't have all the proper driver on your computer. Anyway, so soon after the fastboot mode is brought up, you should notice the computer is telling you a new hardware is found. This is when the burst switches from PANTECH's ADB driver to something else, and only way for the command "fastboot boot prestoroot.img" to work is to find the proper driver for the new hardware call "Android" in the device manager. Now you want to install PDANet, and as soon as the installation process begin, it'll find the driver for the device "Android." and install the driver for you. Once the driver is installed, the installation process will tried to install whole bunch other things into your phone, but I really don't think it can install them in fastboot mode, so you'll probably want to terminate the process. Now type command "fastboot devices" and you should see some kind of output telling you that it's recognize the "Android" device. Now, and only now you can follow the rest of "stupid easy" rooting instruction.

Is there a Mac version of any of this software?
Is there a Mac version of any of this software. I understand all of this started on a PC but does that mean Mac users are forever out in the cold ? I own a Pantech Burst and a MacBook Air. I don't have access to a PC nor will I in the future, in so far as being able to use any of the software referenced here.
Any suggestions?

I think tfranzman is referring to Pantech PC Suite and Android SDK. The Android SDK I believe has a Mac version but I do not think the Pantech PC Suite has a Mac version.

they were asking if any of the software we are using would work on a mac. the answer is yes depending on what software you are refering too. the pantech suite (which has been useless to me with the exception it installed the drivers for me) is windows only. I had actually gotten the drivers originally at work by using pda net. The information I gave above is what I came up with after a quick google search. I'm not sure if that or pdanet for mac would have those drivers.

You have the JDK & Android SDK installed? Occasionally I had issues connecting to adb when recreating previous bootloops & soft bricks. It seems that it gets hung up in a stat that Windows doesn't like. The only way I could get adb to function at these times was to run a Linux distro or on a Linux machine. You can download the wubi installer for dual booting Unbuntu, which is what 99% of people that have had issues have done to regain adb access. Linux just seems to play better with Android & the Android SDK tools, which really isn't surprising.

NO. This is not an OMAP device & it does NOT use uBoot, so factory cable is useless. Try a different USB port. Also, if you installed Linux, you still have to install the Java JDK & the Android SDK. There are some guides for setting up a build environment, which is pretty much what you need to do to really be able to use the tools in Windows or Linux. Taske a look here: Setting up a build environment in Unbuntu
You don't need Python or Gnu, nor the modules, but you must sdet up the JDK & the SDK & then set the paths.

as I said maybe something will come through QPST
at least QPST detects Kindle HDX 8.9 (gray logo and then a black screen) with factory cable
I also lock the device after editing build.prop

You'll have to search around for it. Lab126 is the company that makes the HDX. That page only shows you the various driver names, the correct com port & identifies what device you want to see in device manager once you get QPST set up properly.

Thank you for the prompt response, all the prerequisites settings are in place like OEM unlocking and USB debugging are enabled.
Read is somewhere that ROM can be installed by sideload method but does it require ROOT privilege? Or can the ROM be installed from recovery by selecting Install it from SD card?

Recently, actually the day after getting a phone, it broke, somehow, while using king root, and I need to fix it quick as possible. Is it possible to flash a new rom onto a phone using the chromebook I have. I need to know quick before I get in trouble.:crying:

Hello H4ck3rz,
I have recently purchased a Samsung Chromebook Plus and I also recently got a Nexus 6. I have been looking into how to use fastboot in order to root and rom my Nexus. I have found some promising info on the subject:
I first found this XDA Article that gives more of an overview on enabling ADB and Fastboot on Chrome OS
https://www.xda-developers.com/guide-to-enable-adb-and-fastboot-on-chromeos/
That article refers to an actual XDA guide (tutorial thread) at the very end:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38232908#post38232908
I've read through them both and they seem pretty straight forward. It helps to have a bit of command line knowledge, but the commands used are clear in the instructions.
There is a section in the tutorial that links back to the Chromium Project site where you'll have to find your specific device to learn how to get into developer mode (assuming you don't already know).
NOTE: I have not tried this yet, but I am 100% sure I am going to at some point soon. Probably some time this weekend. After I go through it, I will post again to let you know how it went, if you want to wait to hear about results before you try it.
Hope this helps.
Rk.
Update: I decided I to work on this last night and from the beginning I had problems. TL;DR - adb and fastboot are already part of the developer mode system on my Chromebook Plus. So the need to follow those guides isn't necessary for me.
I was not, however, able to do anything to my Nexus 6 from my Chromebook. Since the Plus only has USB Type-C ports, I bought a USB Type-C to Micro USB cord, but the Nexus wasn't being recognized properly. adb devices returned "????????????" devices, and I didn't get anything with fastboot. I can only surmise that it is the cord, because on my windows laptop, adb and fastboot work flawlessly while my Nexus 6 was connected with the included sync cable.
I'll post again if have more info to share. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Thanks for this! I can't find my windows laptop and all I have to use now is a Chromebook that does not have adb or fastboot installed. I followed the links and tutorials you shared and was able to install chroot (linux), install adb and fastboot on that linux, and then finally use it to load my phone into fastboot and flash TWRP on my nexus 5. You saved me so much trouble!
