Android is one of the most popular mobile platforms for cell phones and tablets everywhere.
Since its release, Android handsets have constantly been "rooted", a process similar to the jailbreaking of iOS devices. The main idea behind rooting a device is to simply change how part of the device works to do more than one could before.
