Four Steps to Rooting Your Galaxy S4

How To Root Samsung Galaxy S4

How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S4

The Samsung Galaxy S4 was the popular follow-up to the world famous Galaxy S3. The Galaxy S3 was the first legitimate Android competitor to the iPhone. With the Galaxy S4, Samsung wanted to build on that reputation.

And Samsung did a great job of building on the Galaxy S3’s reputation. The S4 features a beautiful super AMOLED touchscreen with 1080×1920 pixels and 441 ppi pixel density.
To put those numbers in perspective, the iPhone 6 has a resolution of 750×1334 with 326 ppi. The iPhone 6 was released 1.5 years after the GS4.

Yes, users love the full HD touchscreen on the Samsung Galaxy S4. The phone has also always been great for performance, sporting a 1.6GHz quad core processor on some models and a 1.2GHz Cortex A7 on other models.

There’s also a fantastic camera, 2GB of RAM, and a surprisingly large 2600mAh battery. All of these features made the Galaxy S4 one of Samsung’s best-selling phones of all time.
But it’s not March 2013 anymore. The Galaxy S4 doesn’t have quite the same spring in its step as it used to have. Many users are complaining about declining battery life. Some people are sick of TouchWiz, which is starting to feel clunkier and clunkier with every update.

Fortunately, there’s an easy way to fix all of these problems: root your device.

Rooting your Galaxy S4 with One Click Root

Rooting your Galaxy S3 with One Click Root is surprisingly easy. This software is specifically built to handle the Galaxy S4 and has been meticulously tested with all major Galaxy S4 versions.

The best part of One Click Root is that’s it guaranteed to be safe: if you have a weird version of the Galaxy S4 or are running a broken version of Android, One Click Root won’t run: it specifically checks to make sure your device is compatible before performing a root.

That makes your life a lot easier. It means you don’t have to follow complicated instruction manuals online or download virus-like .exe files from weird-looking websites. You can easily root your device with one click after connecting it to your PC.

You’re just 4 steps away from booting up your S4 with root access. Here are those 4 steps:

Step 1) Download and install One Click Root to your computer
Step 2) Connect your Galaxy S4 to your PC using your standard USB cable
Step 3) Enable USB debugging on your GS4
Step 4) Run One Click Root by pressing the Root button

After you click that ‘Root’ button, the software will instantly go to work. It will run through all of the commands that give root access to your device. Your device will reboot a few times before finally rebooting into a rooted Android environment.

At first glance, rooted Android looks exactly the same as normal Android. You have the same wallpaper, the same contacts, and the same applications. Rooting Android doesn’t change many visible things on your device – it simply grants root access to the core files of your device, opening up a whole new world of apps and features.

What to Do After Rooting your Samsung Galaxy S3

Now that you’ve used One Click Root to root the S3, what’s next? Well, you’ve got a whole new world ahead of you. Here are some of the best things you can do.

Install new apps from the Google Play Store. The Play Store might lock you from installing certain apps by default. In reality, these apps will work perfectly fine on your device. The app’s developer, your carrier, or your country might just be blocking access to that app. With rooted Android, you can sideload an app and easily install APK files or trick the Play Store into thinking your device is different from the one you actually own.
Other people want to change the annoying Samsung TouchWiz interface. I get it: TouchWiz feels slow and it doesn’t look all that great. With rooted Android, you can easily install a new custom ROM that lets you change everything from your resolution to your buttons. It’s like getting a brand new phone.

Battery life is also a major concern for most S4 users. Install battery saving apps like Greenify or Juice Defender to add 2-3 hours of life onto your daily average battery times.
A whole new world of Android rooting is waiting for you. Your Galaxy S4 was starting to feel old anyway – so why not give it a cheap and 100% safe upgrade?
