KingRoot is a powerful Android root tool that can be used to gain root access on many Android devices. This root app is like other similar apps, for example iRoot, Baidu Easy Root and Root Genius that are made by Chinese Android developers. But that doesn't mean they all are 100% the same, for example the devices supported by each rooting tool are different.

Tutorials to root Android KingRoot without computer


Before we begin to the rooting instructions I want you to firstly realize the possible effects given by rooting, for example your device's warranty will be voided. That depends entirely on your device's manufacturer policy.

When you have your device's rooted, then you will gain a full access over your Android system. So be careful when you trying to tweak anything to your system. Don't do things you do not know, or you might end up having a damaged phone.

Preparations.
  • Activate the unknown sources from your Android phone so you can install an app outside from Google Play Store. Do so by going to Setting > Security > Unknown Source.
  • Make sure you make a necessary backups over your existing data.
  • Be calm and do not skip any step below unless you have done it.

Then from now and forward, each time an app asking for root access, Supersu will ask your permission about it. You can deny or grant the permission. That would save your phone from being used by unauthorized actions.

Fix phone is not currently supported in Towelroot.


Fix Phone Is Not Supported By Towelroot
If you face the phone is not supported issue, then you can apply the solutions offered by the Geohotz himself that once he noticed this issue he released the Modstring changing.

Firstly it is better to know what is avoiding your phone to be supported by Towelroot? It's because Modstring, it's what the Towelroot uses to modify exploit parameters to bring root access to our Android phone.

So the solutions offered by Geohotz is manually changing the modstring to make our phone's compatible with Towelroot. So here are the steps to change the strings in questions.
  1. Launch Towelroot app.
  2. Then tap three times on Welcome Towelroot v3 messages.
  3. That action will provoke a white box just below the Make It Rain box.
  4. Then you must type one of the below codes to the white box.
    • First code; 1337 0 1 0 4 0 (Works for nearly all Android devices).
    • Second code; 1337 0 1 7380 4 0 (for Samsung flagship only).
    • Third code; 1337 0 1 0 4 1 (Universal code; delivering a temporary root access).
  5. Done.

What Android devices supported by Towelroot?


Albeit Geohotz promised that his tool will work on all Android devices, but the reality against him, the tool only works on Android KitKat based devices and currently is not being able to serves neither HTC nor Motorola devices (at least when I write this article).

Only number of Android devices can enjoy the party. Below are the names of devices supported by Towelroot so far.

Google Nexus flagships.
  • Nexus 4.
  • Nexus 5.
  • Nexus 7 2013.
Samsung flagships.
  • Samsung Galaxy S3.
  • Samsung Galaxy S4.
  • All Samsung Galaxy S5 variants.
  • All Samsung Galaxy Note 3 variants.
  • Galaxy S4 Active.
Last but not least, Sony too.
  • Sony Xperia Z1 Compact.
LG flagships.
  • LG G2
  • LG G2 Mini
  • LG L90
Hp.
  • HP Slate 7 Extreme.
Nvidia.
  • Nvidia Shield Tablet.
Amazon.
  • Amazon Fire TV.
  • Amazon Kindle Fire X.

Conclusions.


Towelroot is a great app, giving us very easy and a short trip to get our device rooted. However unlike most of the One-Click (actually it's a few clicks) rooting tools gives for example Framaroot, in Towelroot there is no unroot options thus you can only root your phone but unable to unroot it using Towelroot.

That's the only shortcoming I detect so far, the rest of the app are wonderful.

If your phone is rooted, that means nothing can stop you for making your phone a lot better performance than it's used it.

A powerful apps that require root access can now be used and preinstalled and disturbing apps can now be deleted, and many more activities that you wish can be done on non-rooted phone, are there for you to play.

Read about root Android and root Android using Framaroot.

What else can I say? Just enjoy your rooted Android phone. See you again in the next root methods posts on Install Android ROM blog.

Definition, Function And What Is Root Android?

Definition, function and what is root Android? For those who are not familiar about what exactly the root Android is and its function can read this post.

The definition of root.

Root is an account system that has absolute control to access and execute all files, commands and systems within the Linux based operating system. To short the story, root has unlimited access and can alter, delete, add, or even corrupt everything inside your Android phone system.

In other word root Android means to hack your device's system for us (as the owner) to have full access to the root account, so we will be the real ruler of our own device.

What is the function of root Android?

The function of rooting an Android is to grant a full right to user to access their Android's system. By rooting, a user can add, reduce and modify the files or data stored within the Android system. The capability can not be enjoyed if your phone is not rooted. Just like in Windows operating system, we need to have administrator right to do things forbidden to regular users.

Root Android OS
Why you should root your Android device?

The reason people root their Android are to enjoy these things;
  1. To have an unlimited access to their Android system.
  2. To install apps on memory card and install any apps that require root access.
  3. To uninstall all the apps planted by your device's vendors and carriers -- most of the apps are useless and eat many spaces of your phone. Therefore it's better to get rid of them once for all.
  4. To backup app and system.
  5. To install Android custom ROM -- the non-official ROMs released by Android third-parties developers to enrich our Android device's environment and boost up our Android capabilities.
  6. To have a full access to files of Android system.
  7. To overclock processor entirely to improve our Android performances (this will also drain your battery rapidly).
