When you’re thinking of having a handset with root access, SRSRoot is the tool we recommend. This one is a dedicated app which can be downloaded for free from a certain website; we’ll discuss where to get it from later. First, some words on what makes this app so special.

There are a lot more devices you can root with it. And you don’t have to be afraid of losing your phone’s OS after the rooting’s over; the SRSRoot is available with every one of the Android versions ever devised. HTC-One-Mini-601e

The benefits of this method

This rooting post uses this Build ID: JDQ39. This application lets you use other Build IDs if you so want. Launched last year, your phone’s CPU is a dual-core 1.4 GHz Krait 200 type. When it’s rooted, the processor is going to speed up by a lot. Superuser and admin permission are only some of the novelties you’ll be able to enjoy via the root access.

They will be joined by these goodies: new features together with root-only apps. More to come, specifically these: custom ROMs. Battery life will expand a lot, too. The handset will be very easy to customize, as well.

Having root access means no bloatware, either. The SRSRoot app will make sure that your smartphone contains no viruses when you’re done rooting it.

A procedure of this kind will leave marks. The cons that come with it will only happen if you want to update the phone. If you have root access on it, the upgrade shall revoked it. System partition will then be erased. No other important content will be affected. Once the smartphone’s functioning with root access, its warranty will have to be revoked. If you look online, you’ll find a way to have it back.
