Well, here’s my failed experiment in rooting the Kyocera E4810 
I’m accepting donations for Kyocera phones to keep trying
That was my only one.
Its bricked? (I can’t see the pics clearly)
Yep, dm verity error with no way for me to get back to fastboot.
i bricked a schok for that exact test 
AVB sucks…
At least I got to fastboot
Disabled vbmeta, but I guess that didn’t work lol
i thought its not possuble to root without the firehose?
I wasn’t using edl
Call this my failed experiment that I hope to try again
ah, so what were you using?
Fastboot
and you can root it with that?
Maybe 
I had some setbacks obviously 
The updater app doesn’t trust user certificates, can’t intercept traffic.
Is it possible to mod it so it will trust user certificate?
You’re talking about on your non rooted sonim phone?
Yes.
(I’m assuming if it was rooted it would be a lot easier to intercept traffic.)
Wouldn’t know how. Also don’t know exactly what you mean regarding you not being able to intercept.
I’m trying to intercept my phone network traffic, so I can see the requests the updater app makes to check for and download updates.
No ADB access?
I have ADB access.
Tried running what I wrote?
Which is?
