SuperOneClick is an easy way to root almost any Android phone

Filed under: ,

There's a new one-click wonder in town: SuperOneClick. It's free, full-featured, and roots almost every phone. Get it while it's hot, Android users!

SuperOneClick is a standard rooting kit, but with a simple GUI to mask all complexity from the end-user. Instead of running the risk of bricking your phone with fiddly command-line tools, this app just requires a single click of the button. You can also unroot the phone and enable Non-Market Apps -- again, with one click. If that wasn't enough, there's even a video showing you how to do it after the break!

There are a few phones that are incompatible with SuperOneclick (all of them HTC), but even then, it's just a matter of visiting Unrevoked and following some (fairly) simple guides. There's also one other problem: it's Windows-only, but it looks like the next major version will support Linux. Mac will have to wait a little longer -- but do Mac users actually own Android phones...?
