@Loufadorosssss you have to download the application to your phone and then install it with astro file manager(which you can download from the market for free)

[Loufadorosssss]

What ll happen to my mobile if i root?will it erase anything or something??

[sima19995]

[Xavier1693]

worked on my Samsung Moment SPH-M900. It probably comes up as a virus because it is a hacking program. I turned off my virus scanner, downloaded the file, copied it to my Samsung Moment, and the deleted it from my computer. Phone works fine and I now have root access

hi i have a sumsung galaxy player 50 and its firmware is 2.1. will i be able to root it using this video? just bought it and i dont wanna end up brickin ut :/ please help :)

[MultiBigPRICK]

How will i know if my phone is rooted? because i pressed root and after it finished nothing seemed to happen or change? please help

[maxjcool]

What exactly does rooting my phone allow me to do? Will it let me use 2.3 as opposed to the stock 2.1 software? Someone help a brutha out please.

[sima19995]

@maxjcool Actually it will allow you to install applications to your SD card and lets you freely uninstall the pre-installed apps as well. There are some apps which require a rooted device.

[AismenA]

@sima19995

OK, and what other program should we use in order to remove for example LAYAR (and other similar usless app)? I wish to remove shazam, layar, latitude, sims 3, VZ-Netzwerke, XING, tweeter an d Facebook (doesn't work anyway)...

[AismenA]

@sima19995

and could you do a tutorial on how to remove those pre-installed apps?

[sima19995]

@AismenA Yea I definitely will. But now I am just over an operation. As I get recovered I will make another tutorials. Please message me all the things you want to see in the tutorials.

[AismenA]

@sima19995

HEY hope you are well!!! :) No hurry, when you get ok, I'll be looking forward to your tutorial on the troublesome pre-installed apps, cause my phone is getting slower :(

THANKS :)

[sima19995]

@AismenA I am over it so maybe i will put on a video about uninstalling apps:)

[EuphoryGta]

[militaryson94]

@XXsammy5050

Hey i have the Charm too. I tried Androot and it rooted mine. The Charm still doesnt have an unlocakble NAND flash so its a really hard phone to work with. I got some weird thing with my charm after rooting (Which im not sure it was the rooting process) That when i tried GPS, the phone would reboot. I hope it wasnt the root, id like my phone rooted. Hope this helped you.

@sima19995 Hey! Using SuperOneClick is better and easier. Please try it out and make a tutorial about it :)

[Mr99Padda]

how do i "unroot" the phone again?

[sima19995]

@Mr99Padda connect the phone to the computer viaUSB and open up your software you got with thephone and force updating your phone. NOTE: Be sure that you previously saved all your stuff because during updating you will lose everything

[sima19995]

Everyone who failed during the rooting process: MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE USING THE NEWEST VERSION OF Z4ROOT! Link was updated in the description!
