How to Root the Karbonn Titanium S1

Rooting your Karbonn Titanium S1 is now possible, all thanks to the hard-working developers. By gaining root-access on your device, not only will you be able to install root-only apps, but there’s a lot of things you will be able to enjoy. And what’s more, the procedure to root your device is fairly easy.

Rooting is the process of gaining administrative rights on your Android device.  Once we root our Android device, we can then make changes to it to customize it well beyond what it normally can do.

Once you have root access on your Karbonn Titanium S1, you’ll be able to:

• Remove apps that were preinstalled by your carrier/manufacturer from your device.
• Free up storage space (because of the above benefit).
• Increase battery life (apps that might have been running constantly can be removed).
• Increase performance (after removing apps that are always running, the device will be less bogged down and run smoother).
• Update to a new version of Android (by flashing a custom recovery/ROM, see the end of this procedure for more info on that).
• Tons of other customizations when you use your new found administrative rights to flash a custom ROM (again, see the end of this procedure for more info on that).
