Before you continue, there are a few things you should know.
First, rooting your equipment usually voids your warranty.
Second, this tool works on phones running Android KitKat.
Third, it won’t work with Motorola or HTC phones.
Installing and running it is pretty easy.
Go to tweaks -> Security and enable installing apps from unknown sources.
Then head toTowelroot.com, download and set up the APK, and run it.
It takes about a minute for your unit to be rooted and reboot.
Check whether it worked usingRoot Checker.
It did not work with the HTC One M8, Moto E, Moto G and HTC One Mini.
As WonderHowTo notes, Towelroot gives any app root access if it’s asked.
This could be a major security risk, so you should install a root management app likeSuperSU.
