ignore if u did it.
its easy to get ur answer if u just google it,cos many sites are offering that rooting info/stuff.

Check here on how to root your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20033919&postcount=1
And don't be nervous … rooting feels like a big step the first time you have an android phone. But it's not. The longer you own the phone, the more you will learn and the more you will want to try out with it. There will be days when you will flash and completely set up about 10 different ROMs. There will be days when you will brick your phone. Those days are still rather far away for you.
No need to do anything before and after rooting. It's so small of a change that you will hardly even notice it.
Welcome to the forums, have fun and good luck with rooting!

Thanks very much to all for ur responses...
Yeah i referd XDA and rooting is easy but my request is what to do before we do root like backup or something and after rooting what the thing we shud to first like custom rom creations..something like that...

you dont have to create custom roms...............you just download and install the created roms by different devs....from the development.....and before rooting backup your current stock rom through CWM Recovery...........

ofc it is, in recovery mode it doesn't matter if you are root or not.
And you don't have to so anything before and after rooting, it can easily be reverted and everything will stay the same.

[Q] I want to root my DHD, can you guys help!?

Hey guys, I am a new Android user, and I need help to root my phone. I have read many threads about rooting DHD, but I am not really sure if I am certain to do it by myself. I also updated my software, it is 1.83.415.4
I am seeking help from anyone that can go through Rooting steps with me. So if you happen to have free time to help me hook up my phone, I would really be glad.
I really wanna root my device, please guys help me.
I would like to add to this question,
I sort of gathered on how to root I first download and install visionary,then temp root and then perm root and then flash a new ROM is this correct?
Another thing I plan to use Cyanogen 7 rc1,would I use all my contacts if I flash a new rom?
I've temp rooted mine but that's as far as I've got. I want to use a different ROM but don't fancy having the wolds most expensive paperweight.

Use MyBackup to backup / restore your contacts, although provided google backup is enabled it should take care of them

As long as you carefully follow the instructions, you are very unlikely to end up with a bricked device, flashing radios is the most likely stage to go wrong.
Can i recommend the CyanogenMod Wiki's root and flashing instructions

Rooting-For new members here of XDA Galaxy Y Sub-Forums, Rooting is the Basic Mod we do on our Galaxy Y,Since we bought our Galaxy Y at Samsung stores so it comes with limitations to prevent messing up with your System-level files so the Root method is the answer so you will be the true master of your Galaxy Y.
Advantages &Disadvantages of Rooting
Advantages
-You're already the true master of your Galaxy Y.
-You can now use some Root apps from Play Store.
-You can modify now your Galaxy Y like Custom ROM's,Custom Boot Animations etc. that requires ROOT.
Disadvantages
-Your phone's warranty is already voided,It means that if you messed with your System files ,Then the phone manufacturer will reject your phone as it is rooted already,However you can UnRoot your phone if you have problems regarding the buttons etc.
-You can't use some of their Services that comes with your phone.
Just Google "How to Root Galaxy Y" then follow the directions so you can obtain now root access.
use search button and you will get information faster than waiting someone to answer. don't be lazy.
Ty for answer Sean De Jesus.. I heard for temporary root.. Is it exist? If I root phone, should I install custom rom or can only root? Would I got all settings like custom rom? What if something goes wrong? If they wont turn off or something..? I need more info..

Temporary Root will root your device but once you restarted or turned off your phone,Its gone.Its a good step for new phones to test if root is working fine on that device.
It depends on your mood or your knowledge about modding your Galaxy Y,If sonething goes wrong with your Custom ROM then flash back to your Stock ROM or if you have a backup called "Nandroid backup" you can restore it using Skin's CWM.
rooting is just made in order for you to be able to have admin privileges on your phone so that you can by-pass system restrictions
no need to worry, you can always unroot your phone
using the unroot.zip
ps: it's just piled down due to post like this, use the search button to find it
Pls search before posting..

Confused about rooting

Hi Folks, I got my N7105 a couple a days ago, and would like to root it, I dit that stuff before whit my I9000, flashed several custom roms
and never had any issues. Now, they more I read about rooting my new divice, they more confused I get,
I just want to root so I can use Titanium Bakup and other apps, I wont flash some custom rom's just yet, in case there is a hardware problem
and I have to use the warranty, and there is nowhere a stock rom for my carrier, Testra Australia, to find.
So, that is what I intend to do: root by using this methode: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955423 using opion 2,
maby later install this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103
I know there is always a risk in doing stuff like this, but do I have to fear that my IEMI could get lost or somthing like that ?
Is it possible to make IMEI backup befor rooting ?
Thanks
sorry for my bad english...
Sv: Confused about rooting
Wrong forum.
Anyway... Use part two, then before flashing anything else http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1946915 This is the only way for our phones to do a efs backup.

if youre not comfortable yet on rooting your phone then stick with stock first. this is the common reason why people are having bigtime problems with their phones when they do root and not that comfortable at it..
Thanks for your advise, I feel more comfortable... I know there is a wery low risk in rooting.. but you never know...
I will give it a go....

I know the feeling Rooting Samsung is easy, don't worry. You have to see rooting HTC devices So just follow this excellent guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696
Be sure to take your time. I always do. Read it couple of times, examine screenshots. Once you do it it all looks easy! It pays to root, IMHO, only to be able to install excellent Xposed framework. SO many good modules, no flashing!
And remember, most important thing for rooting is to have good drivers. Do not proceed until you are sure your drivers work and communication is ok. You will see in ODIN if it shows COM port it connected.
Goog luck!
again repeated question..pls have a look atleast one time in general section..everything is explained regarding this
btw simply rooting wont brick your phone but it should be done very carefully..
Thanks @mannyvinny and @dalanik for helping..I decided to use stock rom till the warranty.Then i'll go for rooting and flashing

Good choice.:good:
First of all learn all the functions of ur phone and then start with rooting and all those..
After rooting please do make a EFS backup as it is very important.

What are the right steps into installing a custom rom?

Hi guys, first of all I really appreciate the work you guys do for the community.
Anyway, after being an iPhone user for a few years I finally switched back to android and I want to install a custom rom for my OnePlus 3
Im a total noob to this, but I know what should be done, but I can't seem to understand the order jn which these steps should be taken. Sorry if theres already a thread.
Should I root my phone first?
Can I backup apps and all the settings so I can restore them after installing the custom rom? Titanium bavjup needs phone to be already rooted, so how does that work?
Thank you very much.
Why do you want to flash a custom rom? If u havent unlocked your bootloader yet ur ****ed since unlocking it wipes your device. Without root making a good backup is hard. Anyways this guide will help you. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Oneplus+3+bootloader
Instructions on how to flash a custom ROM are more or less always stated in the first post of the thread...just take a look there.
Btw, there's also a nice thread here on XDA explaining most of the things you need to know http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oneplus-3-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t3398733.
