Frequently Asked Questions -

What is root?
Rooting is the process of allowing users of smartphones, tablets and other devices running the Android mobile operating system to attain privileged control (known as root access) over various Android subsystems.
It is similar to superuser permission on Unix based systems.

Do I need root?
Yes and No. If you are a power user and like to use your device to its full potential, then yes. You should root your phone as it gives you complete access to the filesystem.
Rooting your phone or tablet gives you complete control over the system, and that power can be misused if you’re not careful. A superuser, however, can really trash things by installing the wrong app or making changes to system files.

How do I root?
Every device has its own procedure. The best way to find out how to root your phone is to head over to http://xda-developers.com and find a guide on rooting your phone.
