The ultimate Android rooting guide

Rooting: maybe you’ve thought about it already, because your device is getting a little slower and you want all the shiney new features you read about on Gearburn. Unfortunately for you, this is Android, and sadly *insert manufacturer here* either hasn’t, or isn’t going to upgrade your current version of Android. I will admit, this is a bummer, however OEMs are getting much better, so people are generally only a version or two behind, often without any real drawbacks.
