After the release of iOS 6 Perfect Prison Break, the world's fans have flocked to prison break, enjoying the pleasure of freedom after "lifting the ban". Android also has a saying of "Root". What special operations can Android devices do after they are "Root"? This article describes the most practical uses of Root in the future.
Before we understand the purpose of Root, let's take a brief look at what Android Root is.
The Android system administrator user is called Root. This account has the highest authority in the whole system, and can access and modify almost all files in the system. Only Root has the highest level of management authority. After obtaining the Root permission, a program will be installed to remind the user whether to give the highest permission to the program, which can prevent malware to some extent. Usually, Superuser or SuperSU will be used. Now there will be some "incomplete root" statements. A complete root means that the secure setting is canceled in the BOOT, so that it can be directly written to the system through ADB, which is relatively unsafe. The non full root is only added to SU and permission management software.
There are many root methods for Android. In the early days, the computer was used to enter the adb command in the cmd to implement root
OPPO Find 5, for example, directly brushes the root package in Recovery. Of course, there will be a problem about how to brush in Recovery. Here, ▼ will not be described in detail
Some mobile phones support the one button root program. The mobile phone needs to enable the USB debugging function, and the computer can obtain the root permission only through a very "fool like" operation. The following is the one button root of Nexus 4, in addition to the one button root tool ▼ of the graphical interface
The following are the common uses of Android device Root in the future:
1. Delete the software of the system
After obtaining the Root permission, most users want to delete some built-in applications that are not needed in the system. For example, some manufacturers will force the installation of some unnecessary software. Usually, these systems cannot delete built-in applications at will, which requires the Root permission.
There are two methods to delete an application. The "original" one is to directly delete the apk of an application in the system root directory/system/app. Here, the RE manager is used. It is a powerful resource manager that supports modifying files in the system root directory ▼
The second is to use the unloading application function of third-party software to ▼
2. Modify system font
In addition to deleting system files, you can also modify system files./system/fonts is the font folder. If you download some fonts from the Internet, you can replace ▼ here
3. System beautification
/System/framework is some system beautification files. For example, modifying framework-res.apk can realize beautification functions such as percentage power and transparent taskbar ▼
Of course, there are risks in modifying files under/system/. Do not modify files without full confidence and backup.
4. System software backup
Through titanium backup and other applications, we can back up software, system settings, etc. Android users will brush or restore factory settings every once in a while, while titanium backup and other software can help users "package" common software, even software settings can be backed up together ▼
5. Manage startup software
When Android devices are installed with multiple software, some applications will automatically run in the background or automatically run after networking, which will not only slow down our startup time, but also allow the devices to send a lot of software push information. Through some third-party software, we can shield these automatically running programs ▼
6. Automatic installation application of electronic market
Some third-party application markets will provide the function of automatic installation after downloading applications, which also requires Root permission
7. Control CPU frequency and voltage
Since Root is the highest level authority, it can also control the hardware of Android devices. Here is the CPU frequency control software SetCPU. We can control the power consumption by controlling the CPU voltage and frequency ▼
Of course, Android Root is not just for the purposes described here. By obtaining Root permission, we can also enable mobile phones to support OTG of NTFS file system, real-time frame number of display images, app2sd and other functions, which need to be explored. Android's access to Root permissions is not without its disadvantages. After obtaining permissions, some rogue software is likely to have a relatively large impact on the system. It is common to implant advertisements, viruses, and modify system files. In addition, for mobile phones with licensed goods, obtaining Root authority means giving up the warranty. Therefore, users should be very careful when choosing whether to use Root, and consider whether they really need these functions.
