    මේ නුල දැම්මේ එල කිරි එකේ android phone තියෙන ඔක්කොටම. ඔය ගොල්ලන්ගේ phone හෙම root කරන්න අසයි නම් custom ROM හෙම දාන්න ඕනේ නම් මෙන්න මේ නුලේ post එකක් දන්න.

    මේක කර ගෙන යන්න මට NINJAY සහෝදරයා තමා අදහස දුන්නේ. අපි බලමු මුලින්ම මොකක්ද මේ ROOT කරනවා කියල කියන්නේ.

    What is Android ?

    Android කියන්නෙ Mobile phones වලට තියෙන operating system (OS) එකක්. දැනට ලෝකයෙ ගොඩක් popular උන Mobile OS එක කියල කියන්න පුලුවන්. Android කියන්නෙ Google සමාගමට අයිති එකක්. 2005 තමයි Google සමාගම Android OS එක මිලට ගත්තෙ. Android OS එක තනිකරම හදල තියෙන්නෙ Linux Kernel එක පාවිච්චි කරල.

    What is Rooting ?

    Rooting is a process that allows users of mobile phones and other devices running the Android operating system to attain privileged control (known as "root access") within Android's Linux subsystem with the goal of overcoming limitations that carriers and manufacturers put on some devices. It is analogous to jailbreaking on devices running the Apple iOS operating system.

    Disclaimer: Rooting your device will void its warranty. In addition, performing the rooting procedure incorrectly may have unexpected consequences. Please follow this guide at your own risk. AddictiveTips will not be liable if your device gets damaged or bricked during the process.


    I am going to show how to Root few of the famous devices we have at the moment. But if you device is not in these posts then please let us know.

    10. If you don't see this then you need to install Samsung kies for samsung android USB drivers.

    11. Now click on PDA button and select the CFROOT .tar File. And DO NOT tick any check boxes. It should check reboot and reset time as in the picture above that's all. Now hit the start button.

    12. When reboot you should see a yellow triangle which means you're running a custom kernel and you have root. When the device is booted up you should find an app call SuperUSer in your app list.
