I traded my Samsung galaxy s3 for this and the element tablet and I don't regret it
I moved up from a Samsung Infuse and yes, compared to the other devices I tried out - Galaxy III and HTC OneX - I am quite impressed with the Flex. The hardware is excellent; we just need root and perhaps a custom kernel and rom to play with.

Any progress so far on this I ordered my Flex last night and should have it in a few days. Hoping to root it right out of the box if possible.

no unfourtunatly ive recived no reply from the guys over at the burst forums there is however a guy over at the forums at android forums who says hell take a crack at it
OK GUYS SO I got this from a pm with DAVEPMR all credit is due to him I was not able to get past the adb shell command as my 64 bit windows 8 did not recognize my device and there are no drivers for our device for PC but if anyone here wants to try we have an untested GUIDE
Not sure we can help much, rooting kind of requires a phone to test on.
you will need su and Superuser http://www.4shared.com/file/77Hm6isK/su_online.html Superuser.apk is at http://www.4shared.com/android/o6FouNYk/Superuser.html
but you might try
adb shell
rm -r /data/local/tmp
ln -s /data/ /data/local/tmp
exit
adb reboot
adb shell
echo 'ro.kernel.qemu=1' > /data/local.prop
exit
adb reboot
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb shell
chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
rm /data/local.prop
exit
adb reboot
adb install Superuser.apk

ive tried z4 not super one click heres the issue with super 1 click it was designed to root gingerbread just like z4 root none of those one clicks have been tested on a device with ICS on it thats the issue when it comes to that ! and yes patiently waiting heres an edit ive tried adb shell on the flex on a windows 7 32 bit! and still no luck i cannot get the dang thing to recognize our devices i tried downloading and installing pantechs only drivers for the burst and still no luck! im at a loss when it comes to this how can we get our device to be recognzied by adb shell?
Maybe we need to start bugging Pantech for drivers... I don't think the drivers for the Burst would work anyways. The Flex uses a Qualcomm MSM8960 and the Burst uses the Snapdragon S3 APQ8060. I know they're both Arm7 processors but my guess is that the rest of the hardware in the phones is different too.

Just requested drivers from Pantech lets see if that does any good.

Already have the phone, myself and there is no need to root the phone. It's already rooted and comes with 'su' installed.
As as said 'su' is there, but you should update 'su' to a newer version as Superuser.apk doesn't work well with the version included in the phone.
Go to androidsu.com/superuser (download latest su and Superuser.apk)
run:
# adb push su /sdcard/
# adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/
# adb shell
in the shell:
# su
# mount -o rw,remount /system
# cat /sdcard/su /system/bin/su
# chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
# cat /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
# logout
# adb reboot
As for the recovery mode, using Power Btn and Volume Down Btn, you can go into recovery mode, no need to re-flash recovery, but you can if you wanna

Sorry, I made a mistake. When using 'cat' you need to use the redirect:
cat /sdcard/su > /system/bin/su
cat /sdcard/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk

BTW, does anybody have problem with the GPS? I've tried Sygic and Google Maps and not getting any satellites, or at least no very fast.
I've tried the how-to for the GPS from htcmania.com, but doesn't really help. Also tried FasterGPS app and nothing.
Please let me know if you know a good fix.
Also, does anybody know how to unlock the bootloader? Recovery can't be re-written if the bootloader is not unlocked (or at least thats what I believe).

Would it be possible to dump the ROM from your phone and uploaded someplace? I'm thinking is the ROM, but don't have the original one.
I am trying to replace my digitizer firmware so G01 will work in place of the 5185FC I replaced.
I was following a guide which told me to type this in:
$adb push 02-3011-4820.ekt /sdcard/
$adb push 02-3011-4820.ekt /sdcard/
$adb shell
$su
#touch_fw_update command -u /sdcard/02-3011-4820.ekt
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
every time I try to push the new touch firmware I get this
"cannot stat '02-3011-4820.ekt': No such file or directory"
adb detects my device, I havea all the naked drivers, Android studio and JDK 64bit installed.... what else do I need to do?
I'm just wondering what I can do to fix this and get my touchscreen working once and for all!
Thank you so much in advance
And you are in the folder where you have put the file you want to push?
Changed the directory in the command prompt to the correct folder?

Here is the command you are using to push
Code:
adb push 02-3011-4820.ekt /sdcard/
Maybe try this instead .....
Code:
adb push 02-3011-4820.ekt /sdcard
You can change directory with this
Code:
cd
and you can list files once in adb shell like this
Code:
ls
Thx Josh
I wasn't sure what I should cd to. I also tried ls but wasn't sure what to do from there.
I did look at the tutorial for adb and pushed the file into /sdcard/ from my laptop. It seemed to be successful because this is the message I got
943 KB/s <32868 bytes in 0.034s>

Use the "temporary ROOT" method, will say put a matching SU-binary into phone's /data/local/tmp directory and then by means of ADB
make use of it:
Code:
adb devices
adb push <FULL-PATH-OF-SU-BINARY-ON-PC> /data/local/tmp
adb shell "chmod 0677 /data/local/tmp/su"
adb shell "/data/local/tmp/su -c '<COMMAND-WHAT-REQUIRES-SUPERUSER-RIGHTS-HERE>'"

Hi,
Can you please give me a hand with the method you mentioned?
1. the SU binary should be the supersu binary as zip file or the folder from the zip file?
2. could you please give me an example of how this string would look like if the file was for example in partition C?
adb push <FULL-PATH-OF-SU-BINARY-ON-PC> /data/local/tmp

Use the MauiMETA aka ModemMETA 10.2124.0
The software can restore your IMEIs but you need know How use that.

Because I messed up the first time I did it and had to format all with SP FlashTool, I had to restore the IMEI. I will post instructions on that too.
If you root with Magisk the boot image, it will put it in a reboot loop. I found on another forum a file that you have to flash first via adb.
It took me a week and reinstalling the software 5 times before I managed to find all I needed . Now it takes 10 minutes max to set it up.
