Android
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") within Android's subsystem.
- How to root our Android Phones?
Rooting our
Android phone or tablet gives us administrative access to our phone. It allows us
to customize and do things that either our service provider or the hardware had
restricted us from, as a regular user.
It allows
us to change the way our phone behaves, appears or functions. We can install
custom apps that couldn’t have been able to run with the stock settings,
manipulate our phone for better battery life, install custom ROM’s and themes
Even
though it varies with each device, fundamentally rooting is performed by
exploiting a “security bug” in the Android firmware of the device,
and then copying the su binary to a location in the current
process’s PATH (e.g. /system/xbin/su) and granting it executable
permissions with the chmod command.
As for
the terminology, the word “root” is the term used for the administrative user
in Linux/Unix based systems and since Android is an operating system that has
been developed using Unix, the word rooting thus represents attaining
administrative access to your phone.
- Why we should root our Android Phone?
Once our
phone has been rooted, we’ll be able to do things and install apps that our
Service provide, the hardware or Google had barred from us.
We should
install apps like Network Spoofer, which
allows us to setup fake home networks and whenever someone connects to it, we
get the ability to manipulate their phones to distort their displays and even
though it could be used to access private information
Apart from Network Spoofer, there are a lot of
applications that seems to be on steroids when used on rooter android phones.
They get better functionality and performance.
