If you recently bought a new android phone and don’t know more about it, then you must have seen the word Rooting used at many places e.g blogs websites, forums and many other places.. But for a new user of android devices this word is very strange for them. So in this post I will explain you about the meaning, advantages, disadvantages, procedure for rooting an android device.

Rooting is a process of gaining superuser access of the operating system by which  many features which are locked on non rooted phones can be unlocked. As by name superuser it will be cleared that a user having more power than a normal user is superuser. Some of the benefits of rooting are listed in this post, which you can easily find in advantages section. In other words Rooting allows you to run android device as “superuser” or as an administrator, that gives you total control over the OS.
