Rooting, for those of you that don't know,
means giving yourself root permissions on
your phone. It's similar running programs
as administrators in Windows, or running a
command with sudo in Linux. With a

access to certain system settings, as well as
flash custom ROMs to your phone, which
add all sorts of extra features. If you're on
the fence about rooting, check out my top
10 reasons to root your Android phone for
some motivation.
