Root Nexus 5X

Video: How to Root the Nexus 5X (Toolkit Method)

If you’ve ever thought about rooting your Nexus 5X, here’s the easiest way. Utilizing a toolkit from developer WugFresh (that coupled with the fact that Google has a pretty lax attitude about you rooting their phones), it’s pretty painless. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to root the Nexus 5X by unlocking the bootloader, then flashing a custom recovery and gaining root access by flashing SuperSU from that recovery all while using his toolkit.

Nexus 5X Review

Review: Nexus 5X (Video)

Google usually does one of two things when they release a Nexus. They either try and showcase what Android can do with the latest and greatest specs or they create a budget friendly device with great specs to help get Android in the hands of as many people as humanely possible. This year, oddly enough, Google did both. Google announced two Nexus handsets this year, the top of the line Nexus 6P with its metal

How to Root the LG G Flex 2 (All Variants)

The successor to the – if nothing else – differently designed LG G Flex, the LG G Flex2, continues the bended tradition. With a slightly curved screen, albeit at a higher 1080p resolution vs the 720p of the last model, it still has the differentiator that gives it its flexible name. In addition to the same iconic screen, it also kept the custom UI that LG added to the original (unfortunately). As with most manufacturers,

How to Root the LG G4 (International Version)

While it’s quite a tough task to root the carrier variants of the LG G4, rooting the international LG G4 is darn easy. Thing is, carriers often put locks on your devices that prevent you from touching the files that the carriers themselves added to the device (and would rather you didn’t remove). That makes the whole job of rooting the device that much more difficult for developers. Fortunately, the international variant of the LG G4

How to Root the LG G4 (T-Mobile) (Updated 06/30/16)

LG’s latest leather-clad flagship phone, the LG G4, is a great device all on its own. From a sexy leather back, to a large crisp screen, serious low-aperture lens, eight-core processor, and more; it definitely has the makings of a badass flagship phone. But, despite all this awesome hardware, there are those of us that aren’t quite fans of the software that it comes pre-installed on top of it. That’s where rooting comes in. Rooting,

How to Root the LG G4 (AT&T)

The LG G4 is one of the most popular devices around the world. Low aperture camera for great depth of field shots, leather backing, large, crisp screen, the list goes on. But, just like any Android device, it does come with some bloatware that, if you’re like me, you’d love to remove but can’t thanks to LG not allowing it. Well, there is a way around it… Rooting your device, aka gaining administrative rights, opens

How to Use Guest Mode on LG G Flex 2

“Sharing is caring,” your friends will say, but gently remind them in reply of that other famous maxim: “friends don’t let friends snoop around other people’s phones.” Well, maybe it’s not yet a famous maxim, but in a perfect world, we wouldn’t need such fictional precepts! (I’m telling ya: just wait a few more years for ubiquity to set in.) As luck would have it this is a world of gross voyeurism, and sneaking a peek at a friend’s phone feels delightfully mischievous.
