Softpedia Editor's Review for Nexus Root Toolkit EDITOR'S RATING: 4.5/5 Mostly dedicated to power users, this application lets you unlock, root, relock and unroot your Nexus smartphone and comes packed with extensive Help documentation Written by Andreea Matei Nexus Root Toolkit is an application designed for the Nexus series of Samsung smart phones. Its purpose is to unlock, root and relock devices, as well as flash stock Android releases. All of these operations cause complete data loss, and as such, Nexus Root Toolkit also provides possibilities to backup content prior to performing any change. Requirements include owning a Nexus device and a great deal of knowledge about the above mentioned terms. If this is your first time unlocking and rooting an Android phone, we warmly suggest that you prepare thoroughly (there are plenty of explanations and tutorials on the Internet). Gain complete privileges using an easier manner We can, however, draw a general picture of what rooting means. This operation is designed to modify your mobile device and to offer you complete control over it. In other words, it removes limitations imposed by the manufacturers and provides you with complete privileges. A huge downside is that a rooting operation gone bad stands the risk of bricking your device, damaging it and voiding its warranty. However, Nexus Root Toolkit is said to have a good success rate, judging by user opinions we found on forums. Compared with other rooting methods, it is simpler and more accessible to the everyday user, not to mention that every step of the process is accompanied by tips and warnings.
