HOW TO ROOT ANDROID PHOONE?

WARNING:

BEFORE YOU ROOT OR JAILBREAK YOUR ANDROID PHONE YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT YOOU SHOULD NOT DO IT IF YOUR MOBILE IS N WARRANTY PERIOD , CUZ ONCE YOU ROOT YOUR ANDROID SYSTEM YOUR MOBILE WARRANTY WILL BE EXPIRED.

WHAT IS ROOTING

Android rooting is the process of allowing users of smartphones,tablets, and other devices running the Android mobile operating systemto attain privileged control (known as "root access") within Android's sub-system.
Rooting is often performed with the goal of overcoming limitations thatcarriers and hardware manufacturers put on some devices, resulting in the ability to alter or replace system applications and settings, run specialized apps that require administrator-level permissions, or perform other operations that are otherwise inaccessible to a normal Android user. On Android, rooting can also facilitate the complete removal and replacement of the device's operating system, usually with a more recent release of its current operating system.
As Android derives from the Linux kernel, rooting an Android device gives similar access administrative permissions as on Linux or any otherUnix-like operating system such as FreeBSD or OS X.
Root access is sometimes compared to jailbreaking devices running the Apple iOS operating system. However, these are different concepts. Jailbreaking describes the bypass of several types of Apple prohibitions for the end user: modifying the operating system (enforced by a "locked bootloader"), installing non-officially approved apps via sideloading, and granting the user elevated administration-level privileges. Only a minority of Android devices lock their bootloaders—and many vendors such as HTC, Sony, Asus and Google explicitly provide the ability to unlock devices, and even replace the operating system entirely.[1][2][3] Similarly, the ability to sideload apps is typically permissible on Android devices without root permissions. Thus, it is primarily the third aspect of iOS jailbreaking relating to giving users superuser administrative privileges that most directly correlates to Android rooting. 
FROM WIKIPEDIA

Rooting lets all user-installed applications run privileged commands typically unavailable to the devices in the stock configuration. Rooting is required for more advanced and potentially dangerous operations including modifying or deleting system files, removing carrier- or manufacturer-installed applications, and low-level access to the hardware itself (rebooting, controlling status lights, or recalibrating touch inputs.) A typical rooting installation also installs the Superuser application, which supervises applications that are granted root or superuser rights. A secondary operation, unlocking the device'sbootloader verification, is required to remove or replace the installed operating system.
In contrast to iOS jailbreaking, rooting is not needed to run applications distributed outside of the Google Play Store, sometimes called sideloading. The Android OS supports this feature natively in two ways: through the "Unknown sources" option in the Settings menu and through the Android Debug Bridge. However some carriers, like AT&T, prevent the installation of applications not on the Store in firmware,[4] although several devices (including the Samsung Infuse 4G) are not subject to this rule,[5] and AT&T has since lifted the restriction on several older devices.[6] As of 2012 the Amazon Kindle Fire defaults to the Amazon Appstore instead of Google Play, though like most other Android devices, Kindle Fire allows sideloading of applications from unknown sources,[7] and the "easy installer" application on the Amazon Appstore makes this easy. Other vendors of Android devices may look to other sources in the future. Access to alternate apps may require rooting but rooting is not always necessary.
Rooting an Android phone lets the owner modify or delete the system files, which in turn lets them perform various tweaks and use apps that require root access.[8]

HOW TO ROOT


Step #1: Identify the software and hardware version of your android device
The first step in how to jailbreak an android device is to know the specific software version and hardware build that your device is using. Because there are so many different models of devices, you will need to refer to the documentation for your specific device. This step is very important, so take the time to ensure you are absolutely certain about the hardware and software version of your android device.

Step #2: Select the proper android jailbreak utility
After you’ve determined the specific hardware and software version of your device, you can search the internet for a utility that supports your specific device, hardware, and software version. As with the first step of the process, this is an important part of how to jailbreak android phones because if you select the wrong utility, you can render your phone useless.

Step #3: Download and install the software
After you’ve located the appropriate software, download it to your computer, scan it for viruses to make sure it doesn’t contain trojans etc., and then install the software package. As with all software installations, a restart is recommended to make sure the software properly initializes on its first launch.

Step #4: Backup your android device
Things can go wrong during the jailbreak process, so it’s a good idea to have your data backed up somewhere for easy retrieval. Use your devices interface to back the files up to the cloud or your pc to ensure you can retrieve them at a later date.

Step #5: Connect your android device to your computer and execute the jailbreak software
If your android device is properly connected to your pc, and you have the correct version of software, you can begin the jailbreak process. Assuming you followed the first 4 steps correctly, there is minimum risk of rendering the device useless. Once you’ve successfully jailbroken your android device, you’re done.
