Obtaining root rights for Android Fly

It is believed that the OS Android has an open architecture, but only developers can talk about it. The user cannot become an administrator, as in Windows, and access to root folders and system capabilities is closed for him (and this does not depend on the model or manufacturer). Fly's advantage is that the manufacturer equips its devices with the latest OS versions and regularly updates firmware. Despite this, sometimes you need to set root rights to Android on Fly.

Root-rights: what is it and why

As noted, root is administrator rights. It's just that in the case of Android they called them differently.

Root is translated from English as 'root', and root-rights mean access to the root system capabilities of the device.

The user actually gets a developer account, is equated to it in rights and becomes a superuser.

The procedure for obtaining consists in performing a number of certain manipulations with the device, after which it becomes possible to perform previously unavailable operations with its system.

USB Debugging

Debug mode is required by developers. They use it to test applications. Sometimes the function is useful for ordinary users as well. For example, the mode allows you to connect to a PC, which is necessary to obtain root rights or synchronize devices.

The function may not work if the wire, pins (connectors) of the PC or Android are damaged. In this case, you can try changing the connector, wire, or even your computer. If there are no such problems, and the gadget is still not detected, the point is in the drivers.

Installing drivers

Usually, drivers for Android are installed on a PC if you plan to share devices. In order for Windows to recognize Android, it needs these 'movers'.

It is recommended to use only original files downloaded from the official Fly website. For example, if you need root-rights to Android on Fly 4503, you will also need a certain driver suitable only for this platform.

Drivers can be different for each build number or model, and based on bitness and system number Windows. Advanced users use the Android Studio driver packages available for download from developer.android.com.

Removing root from Android

Superuser privileges do not always answer these questions. Often, an incorrect root causes glitches or a complete inoperability of the device. Such a device will not be accepted for warranty repair, and this is a good reason to abandon root.

Access is removed in the following ways:

1. Manually by file managers.
2. The software used to get root, or using the SuperSU program.

As with any Android, problems with the use or functionality of Fly after getting root are solved by a full reset to factory settings. Original firmware or normal OS upgrade can be used. Both options result in root removal.
