Why should you root the Galaxy S6?

Obviously, there are many benefits once you gain root access on your Android device, and that is the reason there are several Android communities and contributors mainly focusing on developing rooting scripts, mods, custom recoveries, and custom ROMs. Here are a few benefits you get after rooting your S6:

  1. You truly own your device. Individual carriers are limiting your access to the device, but rooting your device gives you endless opportunities to make customizations according to your taste.
  2. You can flash any custom ROM of your choice.
  3. You can get rid of the crappy apps that come preinstalled on your device, called bloatware.
  4. You can install some of the powerful apps that require root access, such as Titanium Backup.
  5. Boost Your Phone’s Speed and Battery Life

Things You Should Know Before Rooting Galaxy S6

  • Rooting a phone voids its manufacturer warranty, and auto-rooting trips the Samsung Knox counter.
  • You’ll need a Windows-based PC, but you can use Odin3 alternatives for Mac and Linux.
  • Though rooting does not wipe data, it is always recommended to backup your Android.
  • Make sure you’ve installed USB drivers on your PC.
  • From Settings, enable USB debugging.
  • Last but not the least proceed at your risk.
