Four Steps to Rooting Your Galaxy S5

How To Root Samsung Galaxy S5

How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S5

The Samsung Galaxy S5 was the hotly-anticipated follow-up to two solid years of Galaxy S releases. Featuring a stunning screen and more processing power than most laptops, the Galaxy S5 was Samsung’s crowning achievement (until the Galaxy S6 came out).
What made fans love the Galaxy S5? The 432 ppi pixel density blew other phones – like the iPhone – out of the water. There was also the 2GB of RAM, 16MP camera, and expandable storage slot capable of holding 128GB microSD cards. The Galaxy S5 is a computer you can comfortably slide into your pocket.

But like all computers, the Galaxy S5 can start to slow down over time. Although it was released in February 2014, the Galaxy S5 will inevitably start to slow down eventually. Users will start to complain about battery life problems. The 1080×1920 pixel screen won’t look as good as the 2560×1440 screens that are on the market today.

We’ve seen it happen with the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy S4 – so it’s only a matter of time until it happens to your Galaxy S5 too.

Fortunately, you can take a proactive stance against smartphone aging. Rooting your device lets you pry into the core files of your favorite Android smartphone. It means you can install apps that specifically target the core directories of the S5. You can easily free up hard disk space, remove bloatware, speed up performance, and install the world’s best battery saving apps.
Yes, rooting is an awesome thing to do with your Galaxy S5. And thanks to One Click Root, rooting is now easier than ever before.

Rooting your Galaxy S5 with One Click Root

Many Android users think rooting is way more complicated than it actually is. Rooting isn’t a scary process. It doesn’t take a full day of your life. It’s not some project you start at the beginning of the weekend and finish by Sunday night.

One Click Root lets you root your Galaxy S5 in about 5 minutes. That’s it. In just a few minutes, the software will run professionally-coded scripts on your Android device in order to safely grant root access.

The software has been meticulously tested to work with all popular versions of the Galaxy S5.
But even if you have a weird version of the Galaxy S5 – there’s no need to worry. One Click Root will never run on an unauthorized device. It checks to make sure it will work with your current version of Android and your current model number. Only then will it run.

Even if you’re an Android idiot, you’ll be able to root your Galaxy S5 in under 5 minutes using One Click Root’s famous 4 step process:

Step 1) Download and install One Click Root onto your computer
Step 2) Connect your GS5 to your computer with your USB cord
Step 3) Enable USB debugging on the S5
Step 4) Run the software by clicking “Root”, then wait a few minutes for your phone to cycle through the process

After you click “Root”, you don’t have to do anything. You just wait for your phone to arrive back at the main homescreen looking exactly the same as it did before.

Of course, your phone might look the same. But in reality, it’s a brand new phone: you’ve just been granted root access to one of the most powerful Android devices ever made. Your core files are unlocked. What are you waiting for? Start taking advantage of it!

What To Do After Rooting your Galaxy S5

There are a few major problems shared by all Samsung Galaxy S5 owners.
First, there’s the fact that the Galaxy S5 is loaded with bloatware. Nobody uses ChatON, Samsung, and I’ve certainly never downloaded an app from the Galaxy App Store or whatever it’s called. You can only remove these apps after rooting.

Second, people always complain about battery life. Installing apps like Juice Defender will let you limit the background performance of apps. You can also control CPU cycles, underclocking your phone when you don’t need extra performance and overclocking it when you’re running performance-intensive games or apps. Third, Galaxy S5 users have mixed opinions on TouchWiz. The S5’s version of TouchWiz is way better than the version found on the S3 and S4 – but it can still feel clunky and slow at times. Fortunately, you can uninstall TouchWiz and replace it with a sexy, smooth, and fast custom ROM.
Maybe you want to install new root-only apps. Maybe you want to enjoy better security. Maybe you want to backup your entire phone, tether without fees, or just install a brand new theme. Whatever your reasons may be, rooting the Galaxy S5 with One Click Root will make it feel like you just got a new phone.
