So, assuming that you are new to the Android and some of you might have just upgraded their handsets from Nokia, Sony Ericsson or may be any other from Non Android phone. So here in this article we will be looking on how you can unlock your Samsung Galaxy Pro handset so that you can make the most out of it.
Since Android being the most open source, you can customize the way you want it. But before customizing he device you will have to root the device so that you can reach out the techniques with which you will be able to unlock the device to a whole new level of opportunities as you can install the latest third party ROMs like Cyanogen for Galaxy Pro or even some other ROMs which are different yet hold high level of customizability with better sorts of visual experience.
So, before proceeding to root the Samsung Galaxy Pro, you will have to make sure that you follow the pre requisites to root the device which are mentioned below and then you can proceed towards the rooting of device by following the instructions which are mentioned below. There are basically two methods to root the device which are with the help of the Z4 Root and another method is by using the Super One click Root. So, in the due course of this article we will check out both the methods that are rooting with the help of Z4 Root as well as the Super One click Root.
Please note that rooting voids the warranty of the phone, though the warranty can be reclaimed once you un root the device. Please note that un rooting the device is possible by using the Super One click method which is discussed in the due course of this article. And also, we take no responsibility for your device and we should not be held responsible for any manner in part or in whole and proceed for the tutorial to root solely at your risk. Its an unlikely even that you may brick your phone if you follow the instructions which are mentioned below.
Pre Root Instructions:
Warranty will get void once you root Samsung Galaxy Pro, though warranty can be claimed once you un root your device.
In an unlikely event you may lose all the data which is present in your Samsung Galaxy Pro, so it’s recommended to create a backup of all the data like call log, messages, applications, music, videos and other data which is present in the phone, so that you can restore the same once the rooting process is completed.
Ensure that you have the installed the latest framework in your computer or also you can install the latest version of KIES which is dubbed as KIES 2 so as to ensure that all the required drivers are installed successfully.
It’s very important to maintain a minimum battery power of 50% so as to facilitate the smoother rooting process or else there is a high possibility that your device may end up turning completely off in the process of rooting.
Since the process of rooting will be taking place, all the APN settings with which you access the Internet will be wiped off completely, so ensure that you have noted all the required settings for accessing the internet so that you can configure them again back once the device gets rooted. Also, additionally ensure that you have also backed up the MMS Settings and other settings as in an unlikely event sometimes you may end up losing all the 3G Settings as well as the APN or MMS settings in the process of Rooting the device.
Last but not the least follow the below mentioned instructions carefully so as to save your phone from being turned into an expensive paper weight.
Procedure to Root Samsung Galaxy Pro using Z4 Root:
First up, download the Z4 Root application from here in your computer and after that you will have to extract the same. Its highly recommended to not to download this zip file of Z4 Root from your phone as it’s a password protected file which cannot be extracted most of the time in your Android phone.
So, once you extract the Z4 Root APK file, you will have to transfer the same into your phone by connecting your phone with the computer by connecting using the USB cable. Please note that place this file in the path of \sd card and not into any other folder or else you may face it difficult to find the same.
After copying the file, from your phone just open the same so that the application gets installed successfully in your phone after which you just need to open the same after which you will see the screen as shown below.
Now, as soon as the installation of Z4 Root is completed, you will have to tap on the application to open the same after which you will see two options that is temporary root and another one will be the Permanent Root. From this, you will have to tap on the “Permanent Root” after which the device will be rooted in seconds. Do, note that while the process is running don’t interrupt its processes or else you will have to repeat the rooting process, and also its not recommended to choose the temporary root as if you do the temporary root then the device will get un rooted just by a simple restart as shown in the below screen shot.
Now, after choosing the option from the two, the process of rooting the device will be processed after which you will see that the phone will be restarted, please note that if you choose the temporary root option then the device will be restarted to fix the rooting in your phone. It’s always recommended to use the Permanent root as if you opt for the temporary root, then the device will be un rooted as soon as you restart the device. Please note that as soon as the rooting process is successful, you will see that the “Superuser” icon will be created in your application which is in the skull shaped. So, there you go you have now successfully rooted your phone and you are ready to customize the phone the way you want it.
Just in case if you are unable to see the Super user icon then it means that the device hasn’t been rooted and you will have to root the device again by following the above instructions from the start. Despite repeating the above process if you are still unable to root your phone then you will have to follow the below procedure to root your phone.
Procedure to Root Samsung Galaxy Pro using Super Click:
So, the second method with which you can root your Samsung Galaxy Pro is by using the Super One Click Root which we will see in the due course of this article. Unlike the Z4 Root which you will have to shift the APK file in your phone and then you had to open the same in your phone to start the rooting process, this is one of the hassle free methods which can be controlled straight from your computer. This method of rooting is much simpler than the ons which are available like HRoot or any such tools for rooting which may be confusing at times to the users who are new to Android.
Next up, before proceeding you will have to install the Java SDK, not just Runtime but the full SDK which you can download from here which also supports framework which is required to run the Android SDK. It’s very important to install this SDK is that to root the device the computer will be requiring the drivers so that you can easily root the phone using the Super One click.
For using this software application, first you will have to download the PC version of Super One Click software and then you will have to install the same.Please note that while extracting the downloaded zip file of the Super One. After extraction, you will have to click on the file which is named as Super One Click Root as shown in the below screen shot.
After installing, you need to first set your device in the USB debugging mode and in this process make sure that you don’t mount the SD Card or else whole data will get lost or even some major issue can arise.
After this open the installed Super One click software and then you will have to connect the USB cable to your phone and computer, if you are unable to get it run then you can try in the recovery mode. Make sure that all the drivers all installed through your PC suites of your respective Android phones. That’s it, after connecting, all you need to do is to just select the option which you wish to perform and that’s it you have now successfully finished rooting, shell rooting, un rooting as well as allowing Non Market apps (requires rooting) very easily all in just one click.
Please note that you will have to reconfigure the APN settings after updating the firmware to access the data services and the Internet services as all the Internet APN settings will be reset. You will have to contact your Service provider which is Verizon Wireless to get more info on the APN Settings. Not to forget also configure the MMS Settings. Do let us know if you face any issues while rooting the device as we will see to it that the issues are solved. Just in case if the rooting process is interrupted in the middle then you just need to re follow the whole procedure from the start to root your Samsung Galaxy Pro phone.
Hey, there is easiest way...
One Click Root works perfectly (for me) on Galaxy Pro, also when it's S-Locked

Dear friend, i have one that was bad flashed. now it don't turn on, don't get recovery mode or download mode. i did try micro usb 301 KOm micro usb method but nothing.
what can i do?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer. I'm a newbie to the Droid 2, which I'll be using on Page Plus system, and I'd like to root it so I can manage data use.
Here’s what I’m running:
android version: 2.3.3
system version: 4.5.601
From what I can discern, these are the things I need to do (I've done a lot of research but am not finding any clear up-to-date instructions). Any feedback would be much appreciated.
First step: disabling the auto system-updater:
The dreaded 4.5.629 is lurking and wants to install itself, and I know at some point (either first, or after I root) I need to install an update blocker. Is this the one I want to use (OTA RootKeeper), or is there something better?
Second step: rooting
Steps to Root (this was pulled from some instructions from 2010 so I'm not sure if there's a better way available now).
1. Download the Motorola Droid 2 root pack that corresponds to your Android version. Here are the links: Froyo 2.2 / Gingerbread 2.3 (PetesMotorolaTool) . Save on your PC. [the link to Pete’s Motorola tool is dead, and I’m not sure where the best (virus-free) download site is]
2. Make sure that you have the Motorola Droid 2 drivers installed on your system. Here are the links: 32-bit download/ 64-bit download.
3. create backups of all the video, music, photos, documents and of all the other important files stored on your Droid 2. This needs to be done in case the data gets corrupted or lost during the root.
4. you can choose to save the APN and MMS Settings in case something goes wrong after rooting the phone and you won’t be able to browse the web. [I’m not sure what this means, or how to do it]
5. charge the phone’s battery until it is over 75% so that it won’t discharge while you’re applying the steps in the tutorial.
6. disable or uninstall all the firewalls, antivirus and antimalware apps from your device so that it won’t block the rooting process.
7. enable the USB debugging mode. It can be found on your phone’s Settings menu, Applications and then open Development.
How to root the Motorola Droid 2 running Gingerbread 2.3:
1. Since you’ve already downloaded the rooting package, before getting to the tutorial guide, you can go ahead and extract its contents on your PC.
2. Connect your Droid 2 to your computer via USB cable.
3. Now launch the ‘Pete’s Motorola Tool’ and click the file named ‘Root My Phone’ to begin rooting your phone.
4. Your phone will reboot and when the home screen loads it will feature a rooted Gingerbread 2.3 installation.
I'll post a new link to Pete's Root tools in my list
but superoneclick should work
to block updates you needed to be rooted, then
with a root browser or file manager with root access
Rename /system/app/BlurUpdater_VZW.apk to BlurUpdater_VZW.apk.bak.
Rename /system/app/BlurUpdater_VZW.odex to BlurUpdater_VZW.odex.bak.
my list sd_shadow's [Collection] of Links: FAQs, Guides, Rooting, SBFs, ROMs... - Google Docs
also the update for D2 is 2.3.4/4.5.621 which can be rooted now with magic md5

Hello guys !
In this tutorial I will teach you guys to access data usage with and without root.
Data usage is present by default in android phones but for some reason it is hidden in Mate7.
So,here is the method.
_________________________________________
WITHOUT ROOT :
REVISED METHOD:
1. Download the app "HiddenApp Launcher".
2. Look for Data Usage in the list and long press it.
3. It will create a shortcut of Data Usage.
Credit: ml_taz
OLD METHOD:
1. Open play store and search for the app called "2 battery " by Sam Lu.
2. Download it and open it.
3. In the application, you will see a big battery icon in the extreme left. Tap on the right side of the battery.
4. You will see a list.
5. Click on Data usage and you're done !
NOTE :- You can disable this app features and just use it to access Data Usage.
_________________________________________
WITH ROOT :
1. Open a file explorer.
2. Go to cust/hw/eu/prop and open local.prop with editor and add these lines:
ro.config.hw_opta=999
ro.config.hw_optb=156
3. Save it.
4. You will see Data Usage option in settings.
_________________________________________
Hope these tricks help you guys to manage your mobile data more efficiently...
Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-L09 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for this tutorial.
But there is a really popular method to get some features we miss in EMUI 3.0.
Just download the app "HiddenApp Launcher".
It shows you all apps and features available. Long press at the funktion/app will create a shortcut on homescreen. So you habe original Android data usage and much more features back in EMUI 3.0. No Root required!
The first two methods didn't work for me but however the hidden app worked like a charm
root but I can not save the modified local.prop.
Any tips?

Oh, great.
Thanks for this awesome post. I was really struggling with the internal storage and now I have lots of storage to install as many app as I need.
Do I have to manually link every app which I'll install later on, after following these steps?
It did work great but I have some insues with games like asphalt 8, I link the app to the sdcard download the external data but after that if I restart the game it will ask me to download the external data again
Thanks for the guide
Thanks again

Or atleast with Apps2sd you don't need to get clean rom for it to work.
It would be also good to notify that auto link might not work if Apps2sd isn't system app.
And is there a reason to download both link2sd and apps2sd or was that a typo?
Otherwise nice guide, you've done good job with it.

Hello guys, I am back! [中文請向下讀]
I am back with a new method for installing Gapps in a better way. I have just installed on a Yota3 phone and seems very stable this time. However, I still need someone to test this out to make sure things are alright.
For the rooting method, I will create another thread later on.
Tester requirement:
1. Windows 7 or higher
2. Has ADB and Fastboot installed (Will write-up how to do this)
3. Has a USB wire (Unless you never charge your phone..)
4. Disposable phone data (Yes, risky process, backup all your stuff before you start)
I will update this thread later... :fingers-crossed:
Chinese Section 中文區:
剛完成安裝到一部Yota3上, 但仍需要一名測試人員測試一下方法可靠性.
測試人員要求:
1. Windows 7 或以上
2. 已安裝ADB及Fastboot (會再另外寫安裝教學)
3. 有USB線....
4. 電話上的資料可以被刪除 (請備份備份備份！)
no need to do like this, no need to root YOTA3 phone too. you may just install an APP named GO谷歌安装器 in original AppStore of YOTA3 then use this app to install Google Apps
Welp, its OK if you don't even need Google at all. Would you allow the device that you use every day for more than 8 hours has some unknown or untrusted apps installed? I would say NO. If you stop just right here, there is no point to have a new phone too.

I can't even get INTO Google Play Store to change setting on whatever that app is called.
