Root Root Zte warp elite N5918

so i typed this in my windows command symlink(“/”, “./symroot”); and i got this /system/bin/sh: syntax error: '34/34,' unexpected
 
Maybe should I try something from the ZTE Blade? or another ZTE that's similar to the n9518 warp elite?
If any of you know which ZTE phone is closest to the N9518 Warp Elite and has been rooted then tell me and ill try to sideload that instead.
 
I know the max has been king rooted, maybe we can use some files from the max and sideload them, I tried a recovery app that adds the recovery option to the max, if we can get the same idea for the elite we can have this done the old fashioned way instead of waiting on kingroot
 
Where would I push the SU file to to get access to root ?
pictures bellow show the directories inside the zte n9518

SU binary & busybox is usually installed in xbin folder while SuperSu.apk is in system/app
 
Well A little info just so you guys don't fry yours lol.
Went into FTM and then started the old ultimate zte warpdrive way then told it to do all then the phone went as far as flashing clockwork recovery then crashed phone and now it is stuck in boot loop dont try that way guys lol.
 
Strange looking Mode hold all 3 keys down then release all of them after the blue circle blinks 4 times. Make sure it isnt hooked up to your pc then after you do that hook it up a new driver loads.

Dfu mode? Like for other zte devices?
 
I am thinking DFU stands for done F'ed up lol because now it is locked in offline mode after doing above sequence and I have tried it all to get it back online errrrr.

If its an internal battery Hold power button for 10-15, should reboot it
 
Nope there is still nothing, the best thing we can do is have everyone download King root and let it run so we can push it closer, uninstall and reinstall a few times to give it the extra bumps, not sure if it works that way, but worth a shot lol were a long way from the top of the list
 
Yeah I have been doing everything I can. This phone doesn't have any upgrades that I could find, do you know where I should be looking to make my phone performance better?
 
Here's something that worked for me, I uninstalled the kingroot app, REDOWLOADED it, not reinstalling it from the same apk, and tried it again like 5 times so 6 of the people asking for a root for this phone are me.
