Smile [APP] Sn0wB00t [IN DEVELOPMENT][WIP]

Disclaimer: In the unlikely hood in any possible way, I am in no way responsible for what this application does to your device. You are entirely responsible for what you intend to do with it. What you do with it is at your own risk, nobody else's. You can not hold anyone else liable only yourself. If you come crying to me that your device is unusable because of this app, I will laugh at you. Furthermore, this app MUST have root access in order to function properly.

F.A.Q:
What exactly does this app do?
Glad you asked. This app will (currently) reboot and shut down/turn off your device. You may think that is useless but believe me, more functions will be coming soon.

Do i need root access for this app to work?
As i have mentioned in the disclaimer above, yes, this app does need root access, in fact, it must have it in order to function.

Why did you develop this?
I made Sn0wB00t because I felt that android users may experience difficulty rebooting or shutting down their device. For example, if a users power/lock button was not working, this app would fix that problem. It may sound dumb but it could happen in some cases.

My device isn't rebooting or turning off when using this app?
Are you sure you granted Sn0wB00t root access when running for the first time? If not, re-install it and allow superuser access. If all fails, reply to this thread and i'll try my best to assist you with your problem.

Why the name?
Good question really. I don't really know why I chose the name Sn0wB00t, I suppose it was because i felt it had the right name for such an app that can do merely anything except rebooting and turning off your device (for now).

Download:
v0.1 - http://www.mediafire.com/?x78polw2ff4w01i

Changelog:
v0.1.1:
- Slightly altered the application.
- Added a 'check for update' option which will direct you to this thread.

v0.1:
- Initial first public release.
- Reboot your device.
- Shutdown your device.

Regards,
