One Click Root

[Rippley05]

So,

I am obviously behind since I just got this phone. I am also rusty when it comes to all things root, being on Verizon/Samsung phones for a while now so I didn't have the options.

I am just curious, I have read through a lot of threads but I can't seem to find anything about one click root. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrLR003Mn-Y

Has anyone used this? more importantly, has anyone used it on build MMB29Q?

Thanks

Would not trust it.
There's a lot of simple tuts here on XDA for rooting.

Yea, those have always been garbage and hasn't really been one since pre-kitkat. I mean, you might find one on some bootleg phone..but yea.

Checkout @Heisenberg's root guide. Point's you to all the files you need. Takes like 10 minutes at most, when you have all the files.

No need for that, those things almost always cause problems. I have a guide that contains everything you need:

I'm in a similar "boat" as the OP. However, I have never rooted before. How much difficulty will I encounter using the aforementioned tutorial on a Macbook?

It's essentially the same. The commands are the same but I believe you need to prefix them with something extra. Just look up a tutorial on how to install the Android SDK on a Mac, and if you search "Mac" in the thread you'll see instructions on how to prefix the commands.

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm excited about being able to root and flash custom roms again...it's been a long time.

Here's a thread we kinda have going for OSX users. Couple other alternatives are suggested in there.

I outlined what I did earlier in Heisenberg's thread, all with OSX 10.10.5.
