Today, the market is supplied with a lot of mobile devices based on the Android operating system from such well-known manufacturers as Lenovo, Asus, Acer, LG and so on. The peculiarity of this OS is that it has an open source code, and therefore the user has the ability to edit system files, folders and install any applications downloaded from the Internet in .apk format. However, in order to unlock this feature, you need to get Root rights or, as they are also called, SuperUser (Superuser).
What is root rights on android
What are root rights on android? This term dates back to the days of the first UNIX operating systems, and its main goal is to obtain all additional rights to provide full control over an Android device. You can draw a fairly simple analogy with Windows, where only the user who logged in as an administrator can get into the system directory and change its data. Android works in the same way, that is, after purchasing a smartphone, you only have guest rights, and Root significantly expands them.
Why do you need ROOT rights Andorid - pros and cons
Superuser rights can be extremely useful on absolutely every device, regardless of the version of the Android operating system. The key advantages of Root include:
- Ability to customize the outer shell of the OS;
- Freeing up device memory by removing software from Google and the manufacturer;
- Installation of hacked paid applications without ads and with advanced functionality;
- Changing files in system directories;
- More efficient system optimization by applications that require Superuser rights;
- Using tweaks to improve smartphone performance.
Although the minor disadvantages of the root are compensated by the above advantages, they still have a place to be, namely:
- Loss of manufacturer's warranty;
- Failures in the firmware due to incorrect work with system files and directories;
- The inability to update the smartphone via the Internet.
How to get root rights on android 6.0, 5.1, 4.4
Today, many are wondering how to set root rights on Android, but you need to understand that it all depends on the OS version, because in each of them the system files are different. Now there are quite a few options for getting Superuser, but for example, on Android 4.4 and 6.0 they may differ. In general, it is customary to use only a few methods to install root:
- Using a computer or laptop;
- Through dedicated smartphone applications.
It should be noted that earlier on Android 6.0 it was required to install a modified Recovery, but with the release of updates for this is not necessary either. But still, the easiest and fastest way to get SuperUser rights on devices running Android 5.1+ is to install TWRP (mod. recovery), which independently root your smartphone if necessary. For almost every device, you can find Recovery on the Internet and installation instructions.

How to check if your phone is rooted
If you have done all the necessary steps, but are still not sure about the presence of Root, then this is easily checked. Download and install the application called the latest version, then run it and the screen will display all the information regarding the Superuser. Thanks to the same software, you can easily and quickly give or take away administrative rights from individual applications.
So, how to make root rights on Android is already clear, but sometimes it becomes necessary to remove them, for example, if you want to update the firmware over the air. This is where the Root administrator comes in handy too −
An article about how to get root on Android devices, why root is needed and what the consequences of rooting can be.
All Windows users are accustomed to the fact that on their computer they, for the most part, are full owners. You can install almost any programs and games (limitations are only in the hardware stuffing and OS version), fine-tune the system or modify it...
After the first acquaintance with a touch Android device, many Windows users experience some confusion :) It turns out that Android has quite a lot of different restrictions by default, and in order to remove them, sometimes you need to "shovel" quite a lot of information on the Internet.
When I got my Samsung Galaxy Y smartphone, two things immediately strained me in it. The first is a very small amount of memory allocated for applications (only more than 100 megabytes). The second drawback was the presence of a whole bunch of any third-party and unnecessary software for me personally, which could not just be taken and removed (clients for Odnoklassniki, Facebook and others like them).
In order to solve the problem with the place, it was decided to find a way to remove pre-installed applications. After searching the Internet for various tips, I came to the conclusion that for this I need to root my smartphone. Actually, we will talk about this procedure, which frightens many beginners, in our article.
What is root and why is it needed?
In Linux-based operating systems (which include Android), there are quite a few possibilities in terms of settings. One of them is the strict delimitation of access rights to individual files or entire directories and functions. Windows also has such features (editing file attributes and changing accounts), however, most often we do not use them, working at a computer with a single account - Administrator.
Roughly speaking, the analogue of this account in Linux is the Superuser mode or simply "root" (English root - root). The superuser account on UNIX-like systems has a default login of "root" and a UID of zero.
With root rights, you can perform any actions in the OS. However, this is where the main catch lies. If you do not know the features of the system well enough, then with an active ROOT you can easily spoil it by deleting or renaming just one file. And, if you consider that a virus or another user who has gained access to your device can do it for you, then the risks increase significantly!
Based on this logic, most manufacturers of modern Android devices do not give the user root rights. Moreover, if you do ROOT, you will lose the warranty on your device! Another side effect of rooting is that you won't be able to get system updates from the Internet. Well, in the most neglected cases, an attempt to get a root can render your device unusable.
Looking ahead a little, I want to say right away that for many smartphones and tablets, the rooting procedure can be reversed :) That is, if necessary, we can block the superuser account again and at the same time there will be no traces of root in the system.
And now let's see what we can get when unlocking superuser rights:
- the ability to install any application;
- the ability to edit and modify any system files;
- the ability to remove any pre-installed programs;
- the ability to install third-party customized firmware and mods;
- the ability to fine-tune the system by enabling / disabling various additional functions (for example, SWAP activation).
As you can see, obtaining superuser rights is a procedure for more advanced users who understand at least a little the intricacies of their system and want to improve something in it. If you use your device only for calls and surfing the Internet, then rooting is, in fact, useless to you :)
Rooting Options
- Usually, getting superuser rights means full root (Full root). This type of rooting is saved in the device after numerous reboots and provides full access to all system directories and files. A sign of the successful completion of rooting the device in this case will be the appearance of the SuperSU or Superuser application for visual management of rights and requests from other applications.
- Temporary root. This type of rooting involves obtaining superuser rights for a while before rebooting. Useful for performing one-time tasks, such as uninstalling unnecessary applications or installing some tweak. Such rooting does not install anything and after rebooting the device does not leave any traces. Unfortunately, not supported on all devices.
- Shell root. This type of rooting allows you to get permanent superuser rights, but differs from full rooting in that it keeps the system folder (/system) locked. Like Temporary Root, you can not get it on all devices.
What is characteristic, root-rights in your device may be initially, therefore, before you start "dancing with a tambourine", you can check this. Go to Google.Play and search for the phrase "Root Checker" or follow the direct link and install the application of the same name. Run it and click on the top line with the name of your device. After a couple of seconds, the program will issue a verdict):
As you can see, we don’t have superuser rights now (I unrooted the phone in advance for the purity of the experiment :)). Therefore, now that we know all the theory, it's time to move on to practice. There are two ways to get root on Android: directly from the device itself using the application and by connecting to a PC via a USB cable. Let's consider each of the methods.
Applications for obtaining root rights
A couple of years ago, in order to get a root on a smartphone or tablet, you first had to find a driver for it, then find a rooting program, configure it, and only then try to get superuser rights. And that did not always come out and not the first time.
Today, the above algorithm has remained valid only for outdated and Chinese devices. Getting root for most modern and popular Android devices has become a matter of a couple of clicks! Moreover, you do not even need to connect something somewhere. Simply install the app on your device and activate it.
I bring to your attention several such applications. Since they are designed for modern devices, not all of them worked on my Samsung Galaxy Y, but, nevertheless, thanks to one of them, I managed to get the root :) So ...
- official site .
This application is one of the most popular on various forums and, almost in the forefront, it is advised to try to get root rights on modern devices. The application features include the choice of the installed root manager (Superuser or SuperSU), several rooting algorithms for different devices, and the function of removing superuser rights (unroot).
Unfortunately, the app didn't work on my phone. Therefore, in order not to get into the same situation for you, first check if your device is on the list of supported ones on the official website.
z4root- official site .
This tool is also recommended in numerous forums. Like Framaroot, it allows you to get and reset root rights in one click. But in addition to the full root, it can also produce a temporary one, which adds to its advantages! However, on my smartphone, this application did not start at all and fell out with an error, so I can’t say anything more about it than what is on the forum at the link above, alas.
un-rooting- latest APK file (Un-Rooting 2.1) .
Another craft on the topic of rooting without a PC. As you can see from the name, the application is primarily focused on the abolition of superuser rights. However, as it turned out, it can give these rights. By the way, this is the only app that rooted my Samsung Galaxy Y! But first things first.
When I found it on Google.Play, it seemed rather dubious to me. This was facilitated by screenshots only in Chinese and a score of 3.2 points. Moreover, most of the ratings were either "5" or "1" :) But, nevertheless, I decided. After launch, a screen appeared in English with only three sections:
The first section contains a link to reference materials that are not really needed. The latter allows you to write a letter to the developer. But the middle one is just what we need. There are two buttons here: "Un-Rooting", which will be active if you have root rights and allow you to remove them, as well as "Re-Routing". The latter just assumes the activation of the superuser mode. Click it and confirm all requests.
After successfully completing the installation of the root and the Superuser application, the latter will ask us to grant superuser rights for our Un-Rooting. We allow access and see that now the "Re-Routing" item has become inactive, and instead the first one has turned on, which allows you to remove the root if necessary:
In addition to the applications mentioned above, you can find a number of others. Perhaps one of them is right for you. Therefore, if you were unable to root the device using the above programs, I recommend that you enter a query in the search engine like "an application for obtaining root rights to (name of your device)". Perhaps you will find something useful in your case.
Thus, summarizing our experience, we can say that the advantage of obtaining root rights using applications is that they cannot, in principle, lead to a breakdown of the device and do not require rebooting it. That is, we can enable and disable superuser rights directly on the fly, which is convenient in some cases when we do not need root for good.
However, not all devices can be rooted this way. Therefore, we will also consider the traditional rooting algorithm below.
Getting root using a PC
As mentioned above, this method of obtaining superuser rights is one of the oldest. It involves uploading a special exploit (script) to your device, which installs the "su" executable file and a number of utilities in the /system folder, such as the Superuser and SuperSu root managers already familiar to us, as well as, optionally, the BusyBox terminal application.
There are quite a few programs that allow you to get root on Android using a PC, however, from the free ones, I would recommend using Kingo ROOT. This utility has a fairly large database of popular smart device models, automatically downloads drivers to work with your device and can both grant superuser rights and revoke them (that is, unroot).
First, download the program from the official site or from ours in the archive and install it. After installation, the program window will start in connection standby mode:
In order for the connection to occur on your device, go to "Settings" - "Applications" - "Development" (or in new versions "Settings" - "For Developers") and activate the "USB Debugging" option there. Now you can connect your device to your computer using a USB cable. If the Kingo ROOT program recognizes your device, it will start downloading a driver for it, which will notify you:
When the driver is installed, the main working window will appear, which will display the current status of root rights and two buttons that allow you to remove the root or reinstall it:
Actually, to get superuser rights, you need to press the right button "Root" or "Root Again" (if you already have root rights, but they do not work as they should). This is where your actions end :) It remains only to wait until Kingo ROOT copies all the necessary files to your device and restarts it.
After the reboot, the root will be ready. This will be clear by the fact that a new one will appear in the list of applications - SuperSu. There will also be another application called Kingo ROOT. This is a utility through which the computer transmitted commands during rooting. It can be deleted if the root rollback procedure is not planned (although even if you delete it, it will reappear when you reconnect to the PC via Kingo ROOT).
If you are the owner of a smartphone from China, then for such devices there is a specialized utility - VRoot. Its latest version (which you will find in the archive) has finally begun to support English, so it will not be difficult to figure out what and what (if it is possible to get root, there will be only one button).
In addition to Chinese phones and tablets, VRoot also works with most popular branded models (its database includes more than 8000 devices). However, I would advise resorting to using this utility only when other methods have not worked. It's just that the problem is that VRoot installs, along with superuser rights, a number of third-party utilities in Chinese (they can, in principle, be deleted), as well as the non-standard Chinese root manager KingRoot.
It will be possible to replace it with a normal Superuser or SuperSu only manually through some file manager. To do this, you will need to do the following:
- Download SuperSu and rename the APK file to Superuser.apk.
- Upload the resulting file to the device's memory card.
- Using the file manager, replace the file in the / system / apk folder with this file.
In principle, the described actions are easy to perform, but these are all unnecessary gestures that might not be needed if we use one of the simpler solutions.
Root through recovery
The last way to get root (if all the previous ones did not work) can be to get superuser rights using the device's built-in recovery system (in the common people - recovery).
Here, alas, there is no universal way. You will have to re-read the popular forums specifically for your device model and, most likely, somewhere in the bowels of the discussions (or in the header, as on w3bsit3-dns.com) you will find several archives with names such as recovery.zip, root.zip, superuser .zip or something like that. Next, the algorithm is as follows:
- An archive that is suitable specifically for your device must be downloaded to the device's flash card, to its root (directory / sd).
- Turn off the device and turn it on in recovery mode (usually where you download the archive from, it is written how to do it in your device model). For Samsung Galaxy Y, for example, starting in recovery mode is done with the center button pressed and the volume up key.
- Select the Aplly Update From SDCard menu and run our archive for execution.
- Wait until all files are copied and the device is rebooted.
An indicator of the successful receipt of the root will, as in all previous cases, the appearance of a root manager (Superuser or SuperSU).
findings
In the article, we tried to consider all the options for obtaining root rights on Android devices. The only unaccounted for method that was not mentioned is a complete flashing of the device to an alternative firmware, in which the root is initially. However, this is a rather drastic measure.
I think you, after reading the article, will understand that the root is not as terrible as it is painted :) Getting superuser rights for Android today has become quite simple and safe. And most importantly - for free;) The archive for this article will help you with this, in which we have collected all the mentioned applications and programs.
If you want to take full control of your device, in most cases you can do it yourself without any titanic effort. However, at first, think about it and name at least three reasons why you needed a root;) Named it? Then I wish you success!

Increasingly, users are interested in how to get root rights on an Android tablet or smartphone, as they provide almost unlimited possibilities in the field of device management, and can also help in solving various problems with it. Getting superuser rights is not so difficult, because many special programs have been created for this. However, some difficulties may still arise.
What options do root rights provide?
Before you get root rights, you should understand the purpose. So, what are root rights - in other words, these are the Superuser capabilities that the owner of a gadget on the Android platform can get. Why root rights are needed on Android: with their help, you can install various programs on the device, as well as fully control the platform's performance, make changes to files and folders of the system type, edit them, and much more.
Features that provide superuser rights:
- Data recovery.
- Uninstall built-in apps and games.
- Font change.
- Eliminate advertisements that often appear in free games and programs.
- Creating backups.
- Adjusting graphics settings.
- Game hacking.
How to make root rights - you have to use special programs. It should be remembered that antiviruses regard them as malicious, since there is a high risk that an inexperienced user, having obtained superuser rights, will harm the system, as a result of which the device will stop working correctly or fail altogether. It is also important to remember that installing root rights will void the warranty on the Android gadget. To return the warranty, you should remove root rights. If system settings or data are corrupted, the machine will need major repairs.
There are two main ways to download root rights, choose among them the one that is more convenient or affordable:
- via PC;
- using third party applications.
We get root rights through the computer
Obtaining root rights through a PC involves connecting a mobile device to it, as well as working with special software. If you have not previously connected the gadget to a PC via USB, you should set up this process, and also make sure that the tablet or smartphone does not go into sleep mode during the connection, but is active all the time. Programs with which you can get root rights to Android 6.0 through a computer:
- Root Genius;
- Kingo Android root.
Root Genius Program
Instructions for working with the software:
- Connect your Android smartphone or tablet to your PC via USB (make the "USB debugging" item in the settings active beforehand).
- Run the program, wait for the download.
- Genius gives you the option to both root and unroot, but you choose the Quick feature. The rooting process takes some time - the window shows progress as a percentage, wait for it to complete.
- Upon successful completion of the procedure, a green checkmark will appear on the PC screen.
Kingo Android root program

- Connect your device to your PC by enabling USB debugging.
- Launch Kingo and wait until it recognizes the USB connection.
- A start button will appear on the screen, click on it. If you have already tried to get a superuser, there will be two buttons on the screen: Remove (deleting the superuser) and Again (re-rooting).
- Wait for the operation to complete. In this case, the device should reboot, and the inscription “Succeeded” will appear on the PC screen, indicating the successful completion of the process.
- Click on the Finish button.
Expert advice: when installing root access from a computer, be sure to download drivers for your device, otherwise programs simply won’t be able to root it!
Using third party apps
If you can’t connect your device to a PC, you can resort to Android applications:
- BaiduRoot;
- Framaroot;
- kingoapp;
- oneclickroot;
- SuperSU.
Baidu Root
The program is used to get root, change the platform interface, remove embedded media files, create firmware, optimize the device, and configure the battery. Instruction:
- Download for free and install Baidu on your gadget. During the installation process, the message “The file contains an Android security bypass code” (or similar) may appear. Allow the installation and agree to the user agreement.
- Run the utility update if such a message appears on the screen.
- Once the program is ready, click on "Get root rights", after which the download will begin, the start of the rooting operation will appear. It takes time to complete.
- You will be notified of the success of the procedure.
Framaroot
The program allows you to root your Android tablet with a few clicks without a PC. With its help, SuperSu or Superuser is installed on a smartphone or tablet. To get started, copy the installation file to the device's memory and run it. Instructions for obtaining Superuser features:
- After launching Framarut, choose between SuperSU and Superuser. It happens that one program does not cope, and the other rootes the device in a few minutes, so it's worth trying both.
- Start the rooting process.
- If a window with a smiley face and a message about the successful outcome of rooting appears on the display, then everything went well - you have root rights. If the emoticon is sad, try another program.
- Restart your gadget.
Kingoapp
The program is available in two versions: for PC (Kingo) and Android 5.0, 5.1 (earlier versions are also supported) - you need the second one, you can download it from the official website and then install it on your phone or tablet. Instruction:
- After installing the utility, run it on the device.
- If you have not tried to root the rights before, the corresponding inscription will appear on the display.
- Start the rooting process and wait for it to complete.
- Check the device for successful rooting.
OneClickRoot
The presented utility is also available in both computer and mobile versions. You can download it from the official website of the developer. First make sure that your device has permission to install programs from unknown sources, and also activate USB debugging. Using the program is easy, like other utilities:
- Launch the app on your smartphone or tablet.
- In the middle is a green button, click on it.
- The program will independently select the most optimal method of rooting for your gadget. Wait for the operation to complete.
- If everything goes well, OneClickRoot will notify you that the procedure is complete.
After rooting, the firmware on your mobile device has flown? You will have to reset the settings on the tablet (smartphone) or restore them to standard settings manually. The same should be done if it does not turn on.
SuperSU
The presented utility has a slightly different purpose - it is used after rooting the device. However, the newest version allows you to get a superuser on Android 6.0. The program is an application manager, with it you can manage all the software on the device. In addition, using the SuperSU application, you can temporarily disable root rights without deleting, if necessary.
Checking for root rights
So, you have already used one of the proposed methods, selected the most suitable program, and the rooting procedure was completed successfully (in any case, this is the message that the utility issued). There are other cases: for example, you bought a used smartphone or tablet, and now you don’t know how to check root rights on Android.
This is easy to do, and another program from Google Play will come to the rescue. The utility is called Root Checker:
- Download and install the program.
- Launch it like you would any other application.
- There is a Verify button on the main screen, click on it and wait for the verification to complete.
- The program is not Russified, so the inscription: "Congratulations ..." indicates successful rutting. A message that begins with the words: "Sorry ..." says otherwise.
Conclusion
If you followed all the steps strictly according to the instructions and carefully read all the messages on the screen, then now there should be no difficulty on how to install root on Android. However, much depends on the device model and OS version, since most programs work with only the most popular and well-known devices. If you own a Chinese tablet or smartphone, it may be difficult to get root rights. Also very different tools are required if you want to root an android emulator.
When using Android devices, users often note the inability to stop the operation of some programs that overload the memory, or the problem with the inability to install an application not from. Because of this, it becomes necessary to expand the range of permissible actions. You can do this by rooting your device.
To access advanced features, the user will need to install special software on a mobile device or PC. This procedure can be dangerous for the phone, and lead to the loss of saved data, therefore, first save all important information on a separate medium. Installation should be carried out in accordance with the instructions, otherwise the phone may simply turn into a "brick". To avoid such problems, it would be useful to read the following article:
Step 1: Checking for Root Rights
Before proceeding to the methods described below for obtaining superuser rights, you should check that they exist on the device. In some cases, the user may not be aware that root already exists, in connection with which the following article should be consulted:
If the test fails, see the following ways to get the features you need.
Step 2: Device preparation
Before you start rooting the device, you may need to install drivers for the firmware if you are using non-clean Android. This is required so that the PC can interact with the mobile device (relevant when using programs for firmware from a computer). The process itself should not cause problems, since all the necessary files are often available on the website of the smartphone manufacturer. The user needs to download them and install them. A detailed description of the procedure is given in the following article:
Step 3: Program selection
The user can use the software directly for a mobile device or PC. Due to the peculiarities of some devices, the use of applications for the phone may not be effective (many manufacturers simply block the ability to install such programs), which is why you have to use software for a PC.
Applications for Android
First of all, you should consider applications that are installed directly on a mobile device. There are not many of them, but this option may be somewhat easier for those who do not have free access to a PC.
Framaroot
One of the simple applications that provides access to superuser functions is . However, this program is not available in the official Android application store - Play Market, and you will have to download it from a third-party site. Many devices with the latest OS versions do not allow you to install third-party .apk files, which can make it difficult to work with the program, but this rule can be bypassed. How to work with this program and properly install it is described in detail in the following article:
Baidu Root
Another application for obtaining Superuser rights, downloaded from third-party resources -. It may seem unusual due to poor localization - some of the phrases are written in Chinese, but the main buttons and symbols are translated into Russian. The program is fast - in just a couple of minutes you can get all the necessary functions, and you only need to press a couple of buttons. However, the procedure itself is not so harmless, and if used incorrectly, serious problems can be encountered. A detailed description of how to work with the program is already available on our website:
PC software
In addition to installing software directly on a mobile device, you can also use a PC. This method may be somewhat more convenient due to ease of management and the ability to carry out the procedure with any connected device.
KingROOT
A user-friendly interface and a visual installation process are one of the main advantages of . The program is pre-downloaded and installed on a PC, after which a phone should be connected to it. To get started, you need to open the settings and allow "USB Debugging". Further actions are performed on the computer.
The program will analyze the connected device and, if rooting is possible, will notify you about it. The user will have to click on the appropriate button and wait for the end of the procedure. During this time, the phone may reboot several times, which is an essential attribute of the installation. After the program is completed, the device will be ready for use.
Root Genius
Kingo Root
The name of the program may seem similar to the first item on this list, but this software is different from the previous one. The main advantage is a wide range of supported devices, which is important if the previous programs were useless. The process of obtaining root rights is also quite simple. After downloading and installing the program, the user needs to connect the device via a USB cable to the PC and wait for the results of the program scan, and then press just one button to get the desired result.
The above information will help you to root your smartphone without any problems. However, it is worth remembering that you should use the received functions with caution in order to avoid problems.
You have rooted your Android smartphone or tablet. Everything seems to be fine. But what to do next? What are they needed for? Let's say you got them to hack games. We've already played enough, what's next, huh? The fact is that root rights are an analogy for administrator privileges on Windows. They call it superuser rights.
So, imagine that you are a superman who has a key to any doors in his hands. Represented? Fine! Now, let's move around the huge house in search of the right room.
Break Android
Yes, yes, with the help of root-rights, you can thoroughly damage your device, and not only in the software part, but also in the hardware. If the software is broken, then, for example, the processor clock speed can be raised (by unlocking the kernel) to an unacceptable level (although there are also hardware limitations). And at this level, for example, a continuous peak load will be given. And that's it, you can say goodbye to your electronic pet. Of course, you won’t do this by accident, but harming someone is easy.
And, as for self-sabotage, it is very easy to drive a smartphone or tablet into a bootloop state, when, when turned on, the device will “hang” on the power-up screensaver. Wow, you will be happy. But do not cry, run immediately to the RuleSmart forum, to the Android first aid section and pray for help. Although they always help for free, but for some reason they pray, strange ones, yeah.
Reservation
Hook to your core! Yes, now you have the possibility of a total backup of your data, you can also make a full-fledged backup of the firmware with user data directly from your smartphone or tablet. You really feel the power, don't you? In addition, you can make backups of all your software, and then roll them, for example, after resetting the settings. One of the programs that can do all this, provided that you have root rights, is Titanium Backup. The utility is so ancient that its beard can hold up to 20 kg of nuts.
Custom kernel
Now your smartphone or tablet from the Chinese basement calls you my lord, is that right? If not yet, then it's time to flash a custom kernel to bend the system! A custom core will open for you the doors to the basement, where there is a dumpster! Infa, cell! Thanks to this trick, you can increase or decrease the processor clock frequency or configure the chipset operating modes very flexibly, like a gymnast's back. For example, for the unlock screen, set the frequency of 800 MHz - 1 GHz, and to work with the 1.3 GHz interface, for applications - the maximum available clock frequency or 80% of it.
Feel how the crown is put on your head? So that!
Game Hacking
Ahaha, we considered this at the very beginning and, they say, you are already tired of playing with toys, but while you were reading this, you really wanted to again, huh? Therefore, we are not interrupted - we listen to each letter from the article. The catch is that some Android game hacking programs beg and beg (for mercy) for root rights in order to change the application's configuration, for example. If you don't have super strength, you will simply be sent and the attachment will close along with your lip that has rolled out.
Removing system apps
You bought a Chinese smartphone or tablet, and these "friends" sewed a bunch of junk into your favorite device that cannot be removed. And sometimes they also shove viruses. Yes, he lied. What is there sometimes, constantly, it has already become a normal practice. Even Bluboo indulges in this because they need to be impaled, and then again, and again! By the way, UMI is on the same count, but on a first-come, first-served basis. We take our places, we don't push.
So, with root rights, you can delete all this to the dog, do you understand? For example, through the System App Remover program or something similar, there is enough such rubbish. Then do not forget to delete this softina too, the killer did his job - you need a new killer, right?
Changing system files
Oh, here the guys can just pick up all the rings of omnipotence. You go into build.prop like this and start changing the make / model of your device there (this is at least). What for? A few hours ago, YOU went to Google Play, and he, the bastard, writes that your device is not supported (for installing some kind of game). Ha! So we write brand = Samsung, model = Galaxy S8. And who is not supported here now, fools?
In fact, this is a very small fraction of what can be done with the superuser's sword. If you have any other ideas or comments - welcome to the comments, puppies.
