Root your Android 13 phone

Rooting an Android smartphone is tricky, which is why it is necessary to have a guide. With root access, you’ll be able to install new themes, mods, and fonts to turn a normal device into a flagship phone. It’s also useful if your device has bloatware and you wish to remove it to free up space and speed up your device. Here are the right steps that you’ll need to follow.

Unlock the bootloader

For rooting your smartphone, you should first unlock the bootloader. However, there is a catch as not every device is allowed to unlock the bootloader. It’ll all depend on the vendor if they allow unlocking the bootloader or not. Unlocking the bootloader will delete all data from your smartphone and open the gate for rooting and installing custom ROMs. Each OEM comes with a different method to unlock the bootloader. Once you’ve unlocked the bootloader, you’ll be able to proceed with the rooting phase. However, there are certain prerequisites you’ll need to follow first.
