Love that after all these years i still come back to watch root videos, started with a samsung galaxy Mini, times were simplerer back then
I still have galaxy mini, green and orange, problem is the other one has a bloated battery still functioning to this day tho.
@@Mark-mx7zq i have my old one still, its unfortunately not working anymore
rooting was simpler back then with just one click root .
@@dp_hridayan as a dev, devs got way lazier than the old times
@@Ouba1 And the google devs got more cracked at preventing everyone.
Still watching without even thinking of rooting my own device!
@@toib765 even tho I now own an Iphone, I loved my rooted phone. It was just so fun to play around. Also enyoing the simplicity with apple now
@@toib765 agreed 100%
Root more often than not makes my life with my phone so much easier and smoother.
For example, people can't easily access android's data and obb folders on a12+ (there's a workaround on a11 that google has fixed) when you want to install or modify some games and stuff.
With root no such restriction can stop us. We can access files much deeper than the average person.
Then we have quality of life features I had to leave behind when moving to a custom ROM due to miui's heavy, laggy nature...things like Dolby Atmos, floating windows and mi screen recorder.
Thanks to some awesome community contributions and magisk modules, I got those and a lot more back no problem.
True
Still watching without even owning a device.
@@toib765 true but use a secondary device. my old daily driver had custom rom and root. when it works its fine but sometimes it can be unstable and cause problems
Maybe the most important factor is missing in the video: AD BLOCKING
How to block ads in a rooted device?
you can block ads without rooting using adguard app
@@mohamedalimezghani9747 Yes but with root it works much better, you can google it
AdAway my friend
Can be done by just changing dns address
I recently got introduced to the channel when I was searching for a nothing phone review and thank god I subbed to you. The quality content you produce is beautiful! I love your work ^-^
Definitely would love to see a vid on the automation settings!
Came back to rooting and modding after years of not doing so. Thing got a bit more complicated I see having either an A-only or an A/B device, recovery can't simply be hotbooted or flashed until you know where exactly is it in the phone (in boot, vendor, dedicated recovery partition, etc.), finding alternatives for some favorite but outdated modules. Man, these were nasty but I think I'm getting the hang out of it, especially when I'm lucky enough to get my hands on some Xiaomi phones.
the pixelify module is an awsome module too, it essentialy brings all the pixel exclusive features to any non-pixel phone
How do you do
How do u do what
@@rudycastillo4150tf 😭
@@arnavnisal9179tfff 😭😭😭💀
@@nydominikzhuh?
That's really cool! I would love to root my phone, but the security of knox is something I value more
Potentially another one - Disabling hearing warning forever.
Or changing some locked settings in adb.
In Tasker you can only disable WiFi/password lock or enable GPS if you are rooted. So you can't make an automation to disable wifi and enable password lock when going outside.
Let's goooo It's a great day when You Post Mate!! :)
can we get one for 2024
it would be cool for a dedicated tasker video, whats your favorite tasks :) (root and non root) :)
+1
please do a specific video about the Advanced Tasker Automations !!!!
Your videos are amazing.We want now a video for 10 or so reasons NOT to root our phone,to decide which is better
1. Bricking
i spent hours trying to get the qs panel from the pixel launcher on my s22 ultra. thank you so much for showing me the way to do it!
Your camera work is so good on this video.
with this if you could also teach how to root safely then it would be awesome!, btw thanks for the video, it is indeed a helpful one!
there are many "How to root" guides on TH-cam and XDA forum.
To add my most needed feature here: Backups!
Still very sad, that there is no other way (yes, even in 2024) to easily backup and restore app data from one phone to anther without rooting the phones first.
(and by backup and restore, I mean 'including app/account data as well')
Also Button Mapper is pretty neat with root and the NFCScreen Off Module.
I just rooted my phone and was waiting for this video, thank you so muchhh! Please make more of these
How ?
@@deveshkhoda I have used magisk and odin for my Samsung M31
Haven't put a custom rom yet because I wanted the stability from the stock rom, but I am looking into that as well
@@shishirmodi okkayyy ✌️
Thanks Sam! Can we have views of rooting for different flavor of Android?
2 reasons to not:
1. security concerns.
2. Not wanting to fight every app that tries to detect it
Security is a myth in today's world
2. unless you know how to undetect it
@@nightmode. That way, rooted devices are as safe as non rooted ones if you know how to use it
@@DigitalNerds7 yup
So I have rooted my phone for multiple times and for various reason and I can assure you 1 thing. There can't be security concerns if u only give root access to the apps you trust. But i can relate with the part that you mentioned about detection of root from many aspects. There are obvious various ways that u can get it undetected fully by kind of every app , but that usually implies more research time for a complete newcomer in the community. The conclusion remains that you should root your phone only if you have a solid reason and the time to allocate in all the research and problems that may come ahead.
Wonderful video 😉💯💯
Sam well done...Advanced Tasker Automation caught my attention, just really scared, rooting my phone...
dont be scared. Only be scared if your phone is not easy to root. But if you have a pixel6 or 7, do it. It is definately worth it.
which phone are you using on this video ? on first shot where you talked about project themer
Need an In-depth review of Nothing Phone 1 after 6 months ( especially after the Android 13 update)
I'm on the android 13 update and it is WAY better than it's ever been!!! Definitely takes it above and beyond, feels like an iPhone running Android if that makes sense. It has that iPhone smooth, feels better than the pixels that I came from on android 13.
Whats the big deal with the Nothing phone. It makes no sense, Everyone getting hyped for a few LED lights? I dont get it.
It's a good budget phone but if you're getting it over a pixel 7, you're making a huge mistake.
@@thetechrealist I am looking for a budget phone with a clean UI good cameras and a good in hand feel ...and Nothing phone 1 happens to provide all of them ....
Pixel 7 is sadly out of my budget coz i am still a student 🙂
@@YTBrowny How's the camera performance ?
How is no one talking about the amount of effort expended in making this video? It looks so neat.
@sambeckman Thanks alot for the video! Could you please tell me how did you get the nice interface/ui for strp x performance mod because I cannot find it (only the command line works...). Thanks in advance.
Most of the reasons are really convincing for anyone to make the move, although I have root access since last few years & can't think of getting back.
Picked up my Pixel 7 Pro Jan this year after moving on from my rooted OnePlus 6 couldnt handle its final OTA Android 11 update. Been surviving un-rooted for now, but I'm getting heavy withdrawls from the root expierience. Most important things to me were systemwide Adblocker, TH-cam Vanced & trying out different quality of life modules. OnePlus launcher had so much more customisability compared to Pixel Launcher... Looks like this pixel wont be locked up for too much longer after seeing this video ;)
Hey I'm thinking abt rooting 7 pro, how did it go?
Skill issue; public DNSs with blocklists and various forks of YT vanced have been available for much longer than this video has been up 😁
Hey sam make more videos on rooting and aosp benifits
Definitely past rooting my primary phone. But I've been out of the game so long and I want to get back into it so I'm considering picking up the nothing phone. At least if they restock the us beta 😓
Can we have a video about tasker and even about Shizuku, if possible? Much love, from a root-user!
This! I just rooted my Lg G8 Thinq, but I feel soooo lost about what to do with it. I want to turn it into multi-media device since it has a dedicated LDAC and Dolby Atmos, but I don't know where to begin
Might need 10 more haha love it!
Just rooted my own device can't wait to install project themer
your videos are just perfect in everything
Waiting for a How to Root 2023. 😁
@@_vvinsanity actually i already rooted my device few months ago
I've been wanting to root my phone for months. Definitely would want my a20e to get android 12 just with I had a pc or knew a way to root without a pc
Thanks for this!
I use root access to run a script for installing and running an sshd daemon, and I combine it with a bash script I can run to copy all my important data on my internal storage (pictures, text messages, downloads, etc.) to my Linux backup server via sync. If you're running a WireGuard server at home too, you can use it to backup your phone from anywhere in the world at any time, as long as you have a decent internet connection.
So if I understood right you SSH into your rooted phone ? If that's the case that's really cool, rooting really doesn't improve the possibilities with phones
@@ancestrall794 that is correct. LineageOS has a built in SSH server you can configure, there's a few guides online for doing so. Combine it with a couple of scripts (one that creates symkinks at boot to store keys at /.ssh on your phone) and one that uses rsync to copy data to a destination server, and bam, custom cloud backups. The SSH daemon binaries and configs can also be ported to stock ROMs too. All of this requires root though.
Do a how to root pixel 7 video! Your pixel 6 videos were amazing!!
Do a video on tasker :)
Ya we will be glad to see Tasker as a seprate video
trust me these is not what we came here for...
Fr. I wanted to see both the pros and cons of going rooted. Specifically if it would mess with my wifi and calling 😂
@@bobbybungus9379 I am trying not to let my phone bricked at the end of the day!🤣🤣
Let me correct you "these are not what we came here for"
@@Arslab.randomyou're wrong too, simply say "this is not what we came here for"
I’ve been jailbreaking iPhones for years. Is this similar? Also, Where can someone find tutorials for home screens customizations? There aren’t any on TH-cam, only for iOS 🤷♂️
Just got a pixel 7a but not a fan of the lack of customisation, particularly of icons and the quick settings menu. If I were to root this device would it impact my phone banking apps at all?
Great video! I started out Years ago Rooting Samsung Phones but they got harder and harder to Root so then I switched to cheap Unlocked Motorola Moto G Phones because they were good and easy to Unlock the Boot Loader with and they still are but they only give you like one or two Years of Android Updates so then I switched to Google Pixel because of that reason. I still Root because some Apps I use require Root like AdGuard so I can install the Ad Blocking Certificate into the Root System Store to Block Ads in Apps and Terminal for using certain Commands and SSH for my Raspberry Pi and if you have a Google Pixel it's pretty easy to Root using Magisk and it's Free so why not? You might as well make your Device as useful and as powerful as possible.
can you help me please? i’ve been trying to root my samsung galaxy s7 edge, but it fails every time
@@antoncorsey9501 If your Phone is Carrier Locked you might not be able to Root it unless a Developer has made a specific Root method for it. If it's Unlocked then you have to Unlock your Boot Loader in order to Root with Magisk and if those things don't work try using other Versions of Magisk such as the Stable Version the Beta Version or the Canary Version. I've found that sometimes it might not work on specific Versions of the Magisk App for example when I got the Google Pixel March Update I had the Magisk Canary Version installed and it wasn't letting me Root my Phone so I tried the Beta Version of Magisk and it still wouldn't let me Root it so then I tried the Stable Version of Magisk and then it let me Root it so it seems to depend on what Version of Magisk you use for specific Devices and for specific Android Updates at least that's how it seems to be for me.
Nice, thank you 🤝
1st and main reason to root is to use apps that hate unrooted custom roms
After watching previous video about reasons of rooting your phone, I tried it and I learned how to install Android OS in a nearly broken phone.
Congratulations you earn a new subscriber 😅
hey Sam. Can you find us the best screen recording app with the best UI
Amazing video!
i have a question...
Does this work with kernelSU
Is there any desktop software for rooting you would recommend
Haven't rooted since my Motorola Droid. It was so much fun back then installing new and different kernels. All the different roms. Cyanogen. Hours of trying to fix mistakes and errors. Boot loops. I just don't have any interest in complexity anymore. I just want to pick it up and have it work. And my s23 ultra does everything I want stock . Make an app with one click root that also installs every relevant app automatically. Then configures it to my taste for me. That's about all that's necessary for me to be interested at this point.
how do you make those two quick settings tiles that big ?
You should run a day school where everyone comes along with a computer and you lecture and show how to root your phone 👍💯😁
no need of a school for something that everyone can do for 10 min by watching videos/reading guides
Then it's an automatic support for child slav.. KHM outdated education system
I haven't had a rooted phone since 2015. It's too hard now. I miss when you only needed an apk. Can't do PC's and command prompts and all that. 😕
I wanted to root mine, but the OEM option was grayed out for me on my Pixel 7 Pro.
Great video, 😎👍😎😎👍👍👍
The only reason I do not root my phone anymore is because the banking and website software token apps no longer run.. And they're quite essential..and magisk hide feature doesn't help
disable super user advantages of banking apps
Is there any way to use sa2ration app with adb permissions but without root?
I want to root my device but it makes me concerned that if I do, it would void some sort of warranty with my current provider.
Thank you this informative video. If I root my phone (Poco F3) can I use Samsung smartthings (I.E Samsung SmartTag)?
@sambeckman Thanks alot for the video! Which Phone did you use in this video? (silver edge)
It was the Nothing Phone (1)
I'm fed up with apps detecting the root. Especially security and bank/paying apps.
So no root for me anymore.
Only thing that I miss is automation andcall recirding without root.
Man that better internet tile is really tempting
Only problem is bank application does not work something even after safety net installation
Every time I've updated my poco f3 there's something new I don't like. Updated to mini 14 the other day and it's pushed me over the edge and now I'm very tempted to root my phone for the first time ever and flash a custom rom. So much effort trying to back everything up though
@@BtorGuac i tried. Couldn't get it to work. Eventually gave up and re-locked the bootloader
@@BtorGuac Xiaomi phones are one of the easiest thoo. You just need to wait for a week when you unlock the bootloader for the first time. I have a Poco F1 (running Project Elixir) and my mom has a Poco X2 (running Pixel Experience), both of which are rooted.
To the popular belief that rooting is unsafe, I have a different opinion on root. I believe it returns back the power of the device that you own, back to the user. For example, I have a LSPosed module called XPrivacyLua that can give fake permissions to apps, which is useful when a certain app asks for a permission to work but, you don’t want to give it that permission due to privacy reasons. I also use KDE Connect but, now that Google has restricted apps from accessing the clipboard (which I understand due to privacy reasons but, they should let us choose which apps can access it, instead of blocking it totally), KDE Connect doesn’t work seamlessly. Back then I could copy something on my phone and paste it on my laptop and it worked smoothly and now since, the clipboard is restricted, this process isn’t seamless. A Magisk module called Clipboard Whitelist used to solve this for me by only allowing KDE Connect to access the clipboard but, after upgrading to android 13, the module no longer works and the project is dead.
Basically for me, root is a good thing if you know what you’re doing...
It became more complicated now, back then you can root with KingRoot😂
I remember rooting with king root when I was like 10 years old. No idea how to root my phone now.
except you had an htc. these were a pain in the ass
I want a custom rom on my Samsung S22 Ultra but Verizon is stupid and doesn't allow oem unlocking on my US Snapdragon phone
I'm trying to download stratosphere performance, but I'm lost. Could you please 🙏 make a video about installing the app as a guide. Thank you
Is there really unlimited photo storage ? Please someone tell.
Pixelify Google Photos one is actually looks super useful, gonna root my phone for that.
I would love to root my phone but the particular banking app that I use is super strict and I'm basically playing cat and mouse against it.
i remember back in 2019 i was obsessed with rooting and when i tried it, my phone died during the process and never turned on again i had to pay a technician to fix it.... ever since then i have been afraid of rooting my my android devices even tho i know how cool the concept of rooting is
I love that most of these features come built-in on samsung phones
Question: Can you use Samsung's smart tags with XMLPAK? 🤔
Please make a video on best custom ROM's
Can you use Samsung notes using XMLPAK which is only available for samsung devices ?
I use Verizon phones and, as such, my despise for them grows every day. They refused to allow users to do what they like with their device. I can't root my phone because " I could break it." If I'm rooting my phone, I know what I'm doing. So let me do it
Stuff like this is why I'm struggling to decide Wether or not to leave Android bcoz Should I go or should I stay 😂
Same even though I don't even know how to root lol
If I must "leave", I'm going to an ipad for productivity and creative work,
But otherwise, I am never leaving the android space.
@@obvra the flag 🫡
Stay, iphones are not worth it. Personally I would only go for an Ipad or an Apple watch if i had to get an apple product.
@@obvra it's super easy, just google it "how to root *your phone model*"
I've always rooted all my phones, but I got a S21 FE last year in September. Waiting for the 1 year warranty to expire and will then prolly root it. Don't wanna burn the physical knox chip while the phone still has warranty.
Can someone with the us model of the s22 tell me how to activate oem unlock because it doesn't appear.
