I recently got a new android phone, so, what is root, and is it worth it? I am interested in playing with these things.
It's up to u if its worth it if u try and return a rooted devices they won't give u a refund or switch it out but if u do root it u can download anything u can think of
Root means be a SuperUser of your phone, mean be the ruler. Is best because u can do billion things being with a rooted phone, my device is rooted. And best way to root is using a app called Root1Click, isn't in Play Store, i can send you the link.Quote:

After root, you can do LITERALLY everything you want. (Yes, even install windows RT)
Youtube helps a lot and XDA Developers fourums has all the downloads and non-graphic guides.
Yes u can, flashing via usb with a PC, theres some developers what does unroot.zip for flash directly in your phone by CWM, all guides have how to unroot.Quote:

Try installing SuperUser in Play Store, ( Don't open it ) and install KingRoot, and touch in the green circle. Tadá, ur phone is rooted.Quote:
