What is the function of root Android?The function of rooting an Android is to grant a full right to user to access their Android's system. By rooting, a user can add, reduce and modify the files or data stored within the Android system. The capability can not be enjoyed if your phone is not rooted. Just like in Windows operating system, we need to have administrator right to do things forbidden to regular users.

- To backup app and system.
- To install Android custom ROM -- the non-official ROMs released by Android third-parties developers to enrich our Android device's environment and boost up our Android capabilities.
