I might be able to code an app to do this. I don't quite understand how it would escalate though

If you want to play around with busybox, install busybox no root from the playstore. You can use it with terminal emulator.

I can already use the built in busybox. Just need to give it the right permissions

This "fixes permissions" while installing.

Busybox is preinstalled into /system/bin. No need to install a seconday busybox. It's already fully functional, just doesn't have userland permissions for the important things. Open terminal emulator, do "ls -l /system/bin/busybox".

We can, just need the proper perms. It's read only, and I can't chmod into system. I pulled it into data/local/tmp to chmod, but the commands themselves are symlinked elsewhere

That only applies to user installed busybox, not ZTEs busybox that comes preinstalled on stock firmware. We already have su from busybox, but it requires SUID, which I can't get as it requires different permissions. The userland permissions are there, but the root permissions are not.
I'm not interested in a psudo busybox that exists on userland, only the preinstalled one that resides in system/bin, that the permissions can't be changed without root.

Yes. But executing them requires building an APK.

From everything I've seen lately it seems ZTE has root in there and it's hidden.

Most likely as busybox su asks for suid. The problem is finding where they stored the binary, and executing it

But there's no absolute proof that it has been rooted already, just rumours

Just from what I see. It behaves as though it's rooted. We just don't have permission.

I haven't started. Gotta find a way to actually do it. The actual coding wont be rough, just implementing it.

I was playing around the busybox commands. I found out something that solve my mysterious random numbers coming up my battery app.
It's a uid account. Try this command:
ls acct
And there you have the uid accounts. 2 of them show up on my battery use 99453 and 99443. Would it help?
ls dev and ls sys also interesting.

I also use this command and what is displayed is almost the same as in my phone.
