1. Yes check the last 107 pages for people trying publically available stuff.Not sure if this is my 1st or 2nd post, but please don't let that discourage you from reading this (and the fact that the only decent amount of development is on here and not XDA where I'm usually at). I've been following this thread around for literally months now, racking my brain as to what could be done to root this bastard. I remember someone trying to obtain temproot by causing a scare by whatever exploit I can't remember at the time, but what about dirtycow? Drammer? I thought somebody had tried stage fright, I'm not certain. But I'm just trying to throw a bone out to anyone and see if they can't turn up with something, I'm not as adept as I'd like to be, but I'm not a novice user, and I have a spare T-Mobile variant ZMAX pro I can chock up as a loss and a guinea pig, just let me know, if this post was utterly useless and I'm an idiot, sorry , my mistake, but hopefully it proves to be useful instead. EDIT: has anyone poked around the axon 7 fastboot/bootloader unlock file and maybe port it to our device? I mean ive seen crazier things happen, and I know they're 2 completely different phones with different hardware, but thinking of same parent company so hey, anything can happen, but it literally looks like ZTE just patched in fastboot onto the axon 7 through an OTA. Just my 2 cents and maybe worth looking into. My biggest reasoning is because it's able to be flashed through a stock recovery.
2. We can't access fastboot on this device.
3. Flashing anything from another phone to this phone or ANY phone for that matter means death for that device.
4. Axon 7 is bootloader unlocked. This is not.
