How to Root Your HTC Explorer

To get the most of your mobile you must have to Root your phone, or if you want to be an administrator user of your mobile like in Windows Operating system, then you must have to root your phone. Below I’m showing you the method I have used to root, and also listed the successful method that worked for me.

Necessary Steps Required Before rooting:

Download & Install HTC Sync from Official source
Unlock your phone’s Bootloader (Click Here for complete steps)
Add Recovery

1. Install Root/Un-Root Android App

I have seen lots of apps by using them you can easily root your phone inside your android OS, by searching I had found an application Z4Root. I installed this app and tried to root from this app but when I run it took the rooting process to forever. I restart my phone and tried again but similar results, I delete this app which wasted my time. If you know any that worked for you please write in comments.


2. Method that Worked for me

Install Superuser App:

• First download this app zip from AndroidSU
• Now place this zip file into your MicroSD card
• Press “Volume Down” + “Power Button” this will show up the HTC bootloader unlocked screen (I supposed you’ve already unlocked HTC bootloader)
• Now navigate in the bootloader menu use Volume down for one move down,Volume Up for one move up, Power button to select option.
• Go into Recovery Mode
• Select Install zip from MicroSD and select the zip file that you’ve put in the microSD

Now you’ve rooted your phone, now you're not bound to any permissions.
