Root Devs Needed Bad

If any of you guys know any android Devs please don't hesitate to invite them to maybe take a look at this device. I am not a dev and have no idea where to get started but if someone out there could just show me a starting point I would be glad to follow instructions. This is a great device and it is a shame we don,t have root yet.
 
Hello kdraw, how do you like it compared to the warp4g? I was thinking about getting me one. It might take a while for dev. Support on this phone since its brand new and sharp doesnt have that many phones.
Any idea of what your free useable ram looks like? Itll be a deal breaker for me if there is like 800+ MB of useable ram.
I heard the warp sync uses like 70% of the 2gigs it has
 
It seems to hover around 50% usable ram. I'm really thinking of going back to the Warp 4g until we can get root. I think with an oc'ed kernel and a little magic it'll be a pretty good device but to tell you the truth I wish I would have waited a bit.
 
I just ordered one, got it for cheap. I still have my warp4g, its still activated so I can poke the aquos with a stick until it gets root. I might do some risky things to it to see if I can get it up and running

What's all the drawbacks?
 
The main one is root, there is none. I also don't like the display material, it is not glass. It feels like poly-carbonate, like the stuff they make safety glasses out of.
 
The screen doesnt feel that bad. Its like higher end plexiglas. But yeah itll probably get scratched if your not careful. Root is a must have tho. Ill be happy with just a way to root.
One thing I do not like though is, the flashlight is not bright at all. My screen is brighter.
But imo its an upgrade from the warp4g.
Maybe the developers are staying away from this phone because the specs make it seem really cheap. But for the most part it feels like a moderately high end phone. I was skeptical about the display resolution but the screen looks better than the warp
