Hi ! 🙂 You can simply root your device using the “Root Genius” tool. Follow up the steps below to get your device rooted.
Step 1:
Download the RootGenius_1.8.7.exe setup to your Windows PC. (Note: make sure you have temporarily deactivated the anti-virus software on your PC)
Step 2:
Run the RootGenius_1.8.7.exe setup. It will ask to plug your device in debug mode to your PC.
Step 3:
Follow up the screens of RootGenius application. It will automatically detect your device and guide you to screen with a “Root it” option.
Step 4:
Press the button “Root it”. This will take few minutes to root your phone. Once the device is rooted with “RootGenius” you will see an app called “King user” is installed on your phone.
Step 5:
Now execute some commands on “adb shell” to further ensure the device is rooted.
Command: su | id
C:\Users\Tharaka>adb shell
# su | id
su | id
uid=0(root) gid=2000(shell) groups=1007(log)
Getting uid = 0 or root means the device is rooted
Cheers ! 🙂
