Whatever the reason, we want to let Samsung Galaxy S users know that they don’t have to be scared of the “R” word any longer. Times are changing and the method used to root a device is not the same as it once was when the Android platform initially kicked off.
Thanks to some pretty swift and dedicated developers, it’s getting easier and easier all of the time to gain root access to your device. Our friends over at The Unlockr were generous enough to create a pretty cool and easy tutorial, with video, to assist you in executing the process for several devices in the Galaxy S line, including the Captivate and T-Mobile’s Vibrant. You can also check out more info on rooting these devices here at the XDA forums, an excellent resource for all things rooted. Follow the easy instructions and you’ll be on your way in no time to rooting your device, giving you more access, better performance, new applications and ample control over your smartphone. Plus, you’ll be a sure in with the ladies as your title status will get bumped to “hacker”. In addition, if you’re looking to “unroot” your device, XDA has a nice little section as well that might be of good use to you. Let us know what you think about rooting in the comments below. And check out our previous post on rooting when you get the opportunity, where one developer argues that “rooting is openness“.
