ANDROID ROOTING

What is Rooting Android ?

Android is based on Linux, where the “root” user is equivalent to the Administrator user in Windows. The term “rooting” means gaining root access to your smartphone or tablet and being able to run applications with that root permissions – full system access, in other words.

How to root the phone?
There are many apps that are used for the rooting. Such as

When you root your phone, it means you're breaking out of Android’s security model.

Android uses Linux’s security model in a different way. Every Android app runs with its own user ID, or UID. In other words, every app runs as its own user account. This means that every app has its own data isolated from every other app. If you install your bank’s app, its data will be stored so that it’s only accessible by the bank’s app – other apps on your device can’t snoop on it.

On a standard Android configuration, no app can access any other app’s data, no matter how many permissions the app asks for.

This all changes when you run an application as root. The application is no longer running in a sandboxed area – it has access to the entire system. An app with root permissions can read other apps’ data.

In a nutshell, when you root your phone, you will be able to do the impossible with it cause you and the apps will gain system wide admin access BUT, by doing so, your will be more prone to malware, viruses and everything. Besides, the service center will consider your warranty void once it is rooted.
