Has anyone been able to root this phone?

Unfortunately, no.... And there doesn't seem to be any devs working on this so for now we are out of luck my friend...

I'm currently working on installing my own custom kernel for the Burst so i will keep updates on how that goes and when it will be ready as a flashable .zip package. So far i have foumd the stock kernel pieces wbich now just need to be rebuilt and package into a working kernel with root injected. Im using Sourcery G+ + Lite to build my kernel with the toolchain. If any developers could step forward and help me with this, it would be vreatly appreciated. I have the Toolchain and the kernel.gz file on hand, if anyone is interested in taking a swing at it with me, reply here or drop me a PM.

Awesome! I've been checking regularly to see if there would be a root. Any idea on when you might release this for use?

It's been released for a minute, and so has recovery

I wasn't sure whether or not to start a new thread on this. I tried to follow the root guide i can connect fine thru PcSuite. So I assume drivers are installed correct. I get to the point where the bootloader loads and I get the fastboot boot screen at that point it tries to install drivers and cant find any. I have to pull battery to reset the phone because its locked at that point. Any ideas anyone else encounter this? Thanks
