VaaR · November 11, 2016

Hi, today I'm showing you how to root your android device with just one click.

What is TowelRoot?

TowelRoot is a tool created by Geohot with the ability to root most of the android devices.

Pros of using TowelRoot

1. It's super easy to use: To root your phone with TowelRoot simply go to towelroot.com and tap on the lambda icon. The website will then start downloading 'TR.apk' to your device. Tap on the file by pulling your notifications bar down and install it. After installing simply open it and press 'Make it ra1n'

2. Download root-only apps: After successfully rooting your device you will have the ability to install root-only apps that can significantly improve your android device.

3. If your phone isn't compatible it won't brick it: One of the amazing features of using TowelRoot is that it won't brick your device if it's compatible. If it doesn't work your phone will simply reboot and nothing bad will happen.

Cons of using TowelRoot

1. Security Risks: After successfully rooting your device you have to install supersu otherwise apps can get root privileges without your knowledge.

2. It voids the warranty: Rooting an adroid device will void your warranty. If you still have your warranty and want to root your phone I will show down below how to unroot it.

3. You can't unroot using TowelRoot: TowelRoot is root only tool meaning that it won't be able to unroot your device.

How to root using TowelRoot

-Open the settings go to security and enable unknown sources

-Donwload TowelRoot from towelroot.com

-Install it

-Press 'Make it ra1n'

-After rebooting install rootchecker from playstore to make sure you successfully rooted your phone

-If rootchecker shows that your device is rooted head over to the playstore and install supersu

TowelRoot troubleshooting

Phone isn't supported: If your phone isn’t supported, when you open Towelroot and press the 'Make it ra1n' button it says that the phone isn’t currently compatible you will have to change the modstrings. Modstrings are a way to modify the exploit parameters for your phone. This is only if your device can't be towelrooted. Click "welcome to towelroot v3" 3 times and enter text.

Most phones: '1337 0 1 0 4 0'

New Samsung: '1337 0 1 7380 4 0'

Temp root: '1337 0 1 0 4 1'

If changing the modstrings didn't work I recommend you to try this method:

Installing Towelroot v1 might also fix the problem (I don't know why but v1 works for some while v3 doesn't)

How to unroot your device permanently

-Open SuperSU

-Click on Settings

-Look for Cleanup tab

-Click on full unroot
