[APK] iRoot, how to root Android mobile without PC

If we are users with an average knowledge of software, when we buy any mobile or tablet, whatever its brand, we usually have a question: remove all restrictions to obtain greater freedom or leave it as it is and not complicate ourselves. On Android, removing restrictions is known as Rooting and in this post we will explain How to Root Android with iRoot, one of the tools that we can use directly from the device and without depending on a computer.

On the other hand, we also want to explain a little above what it means to have Root access to our Android device and we will try to answer other questions that we know many users ask, such as if the warranty is lost due to having Rooted the device.

What is being Root on Android?

You could say that being Root on Android is having full device control. If you are gamers, you can compare being a Root user on Android with a God Mode in which we are never killed and we have special powers that, for example, allow us to pass through walls and even fly.

There are applications that need some special permits. For example, some applications that are used to recover passwords for Wi-Fi networks can only monitor the networks if the device is Rooted. There are also special applications such as Cerberus and Titanum Backup that cannot do their job if we have not removed the restrictions that any Android device includes right out of the box.

In addition, being Root we can also customize the device to the maximum, which can allow us to eliminate applications installed by default or eliminate the customization layer of a brand.

The downside is that it is a double-edged razor and, if we root our device and are not careful, we can run a malicious app and with this we will be giving him permission to do practically everything. If we are not Root, if we run a malicious application of this type, it will not be able to perform some actions.

Can you root an Android device without a PC?

Yes of course. This question would make more sense about the year 2010-2011, when Android was in its infancy and there weren't as many apps available. Already in 2016 we have several options that will allow us to Root our Android device without depending on a PC. In this article we will explain how to do it with iRoot, but we will also talk a little about other applications to get Root access on our Android device. Some of them, perhaps the best, do require the use of a computer.

If you want an alternative, here we show you how to root android without PC with Root Master.

Applications to root the Android mobile or tablet

Among the many apps that are available to root on Android, I would highlight the following:

• vRoot. One of the most famous and most used is VRoot. Like other of the best applications to Root our Android devices, it is very simple to use, but it is only available for PC. In addition, it also serves to make the way back and works for almost any version of Android (from 2.2 to the most current versions).
• Kingo ROOT. You could say that Kingo ROOT is a similar but less effective version than VRoot. Like VRoot, it also allows you to do the way back, which is known as unroot.
• Framaoot. As an application that does not require a computer, but rather that the entire process is carried out from the device, it does not work on as many devices or brands as the previous tools, but it is also an option to take into account. In THIS LINK You have a post that explains how to Root an Android device with this tool.
• KingRoot. Another application that allows us to Root Android without PC. Their website is very well designed and they say it works on more than 100.000 different devices, but it is not as good as VRoot or Kingo ROOT.
• Root Master. It also serves to Root without a computer and in Androidsis we wrote a post with information about this tool.
• Many more, but the above are the most reliable.

How to root the mobile with iRoot

One of the best options for Root Android without PC is iRoot. Keep in mind that some devices have a specific tool for them, so it is best in these cases to use the corresponding tool. iRoot has a version for PC and for Android and in the following video you have a demonstration of how it works. If you haven't updated it, this tool is compatible from Android 2.2 to the latest versions. In the video we explain all this a bit above but, to avoid possible confusion, I will detail the steps to follow (which I think cannot be simpler) to Root an Android device with iRoot:

1. If we do not have the option to install applications from unknown sources activated, we go to the general settings and activate it.
2. We download iRoot from THIS LINK.
3. We open the downloaded .apk file and choose the "Install" option.
4. Upon entering, we will see the icon of the sad green doll and next to it a button that says «Root». We tap on that button.
5. We wait and, when the process is finished, we will have our device Rooted.

Do I lose the warranty on my Android device if I root it?

This question does not have an easy answer. On the one hand, it is assumed that when we perform this type of operation on our device, we are doing modifications not allowed by the company that sold us the device. On that basis, when Rooting an Android device, we lose the warranty.

But the theory is not always true. One of the goals of any company is customer satisfaction. If a user is happy with the purchase of a device, we will probably consider buying another of the same brand in the future. If we have problems and the after-sales service responds, we can also consider buying a new device of the same brand in the future. The companies know it and if we bring them a damaged device that we have Rooted, they usually turn a blind eye.

In any case, if we want to be sure, it is best not to root our device, in case the company decides not to take over a repair.
