The most common way to get in control of the root user account is by installing the custom recovery (which often requires unlocking the bootloader first) and then flashing the SuperSU from the custom recovery as mentioned above.

There are two reasons why people decide to use the one-click rooting tool and not the SuperSU from a custom recovery: they don’t want to have a custom recovery replacing the stock recovery image on the device, and they don’t have the chance to get a custom recovery image to replace the stock recovery because a custom recovery isn’t always available. You might already be familiar with Chainfire’s work with the SuperSU that people often choose to flash from a custom recovery image in order to get the root access instead. Moreover, there are CF-Auto-Root tools available for the difference software versions.ĬF-Auto-Root represents a one-click rooting tool that is developed by Chainfire. There is nearly a CF-Auto-Root tool out there available for every device from Samsung. Have you already rooted your phone? If yes, what applications did you install first? Titanium Backup and Greenify are two great apps for the beginning.There is no more popular rooting tool than the CF-Auto-Root tool for the Samsung range of smartphone and tablets. You can check the CF-Auto-Root page and check for your phone variant, SM-G930F, SM-G935F or whatever your model is. It is created and developed by Chainfire, who periodically updates the tool with new devices. While KingRoot is easier, CF-Auto-Root is older, better, includes SuperSU and is more trustworthy. You can install the app variant or you can install the Windows program on your computer and root your phone from there. Kingo Root is another app similar to KingRoot.
