What is Rooting? Full access to an Android account

The question of what is rooting is closely related to the use of an Android system. If you are an Android user yourself, then it is important that you are aware of some characteristics of the operating system.

Android is an open-source system. To gain administrative rights there, root access is required.A root is basically just a user of an Android system who has full access rights. Therefore, a root account can be compared to an administrator in the Windows operating system. However, some differences become clear upon detailed examination.

• In principle, a user who has all admin or root rights on a hardware can change the entire system.
• He can profoundly change the interface of his Android system and edit the system settings. For example, system-wide equalizers can be installed, for example, to increase the maximum volume of your Samsung smartphone.
• The entire menu navigation can also be customized.
• In addition, you can delete apps already installed on your smartphone, which the manufacturer has stored there. This is not possible without root rights.

When rooting a smartphone, however, some dangers also exist. If you make a mistake during the rooting process, you could destroy your entire device. So it is of great importance that you proceed very carefully and only under guidance. In terms of possible destruction, a distinction can be made between soft-brick and hard-brick.While a soft-brick, i.e. an error in the software, can be easily repaired afterwards, a hard-brick is so far-reaching that access to your smartphone is no longer possible. The end device can then no longer be used.
