Hello i appreciate the way you root your android device. But i'm concerned about the safeness of the phone and how user friendly is it. Being an android user it would be good if you guys use search4roots for rooting.

Great and super easy process to root your device. Thanks to iClarified for their hard work. Just wish they'd clean up the comment section with junk users.
Geohotz, great work! You helped me jailbroke my first iPhone 2G circa 2007 and now my Nexus 7 2013_Confirmed. Thank you.

All Apple bitches are f¢cking stupid and bias! I don't even think they know what the word 'hardware' means; because if they do, then they would buy other phones.

How about first learning how to spell and then second start making some sense before you submit your next reply?!!!

Good sir, at least say it was his grammar and not his spelling because there was no misspelled word.

Yes, grammar was bad too. I'm referring the the attempted swear word. If you are going to swear at least do it! Bitch was once considered a taboo when directed towards a woman but he managed to get that right.

So you load it from the phone's web browser to get it to work?

Asshole, iOS isn't the only thing out there. You didn't ask if he gave up on iOS when he jailbroke the PS3, maybe it got boring. Android is the most "fun" platform to truly code on (develop) when it comes to mobile devices. Then again, you're only going to give a biased reply about how I am defending android and how iPhones are way better when I didn't say either was better that the other. Then you're going to tell me how this is an iPhone/Apple site only. I don't give a damn about what it is, it's just ignorance runs through you and it bothers me to see such an ignorant comment on any forums/site.
