The process couldn't be easier—start by making sure you have installation from "Unknown sources" enabled, then just grab the TowelRoot apk from here and install.
We're rooting using a pretty genius method. It basically
exploits the kernel, which freezes Android, and while the OS is sitting
there panicking, it asks for root privileges and Android gives them to
it. Then, it copies over the necessary root files and reboots the phone.
But because of the way this exploit functions, you'll see a nice scary
warning when installing TowelRoot—check that you understand the risks,
then hit Install anyway.
Step 2: Run TowelRoot
Now hit the make it ra1n button, and let the app do its thing. It'll automatically reboot your device, and then you'll be rooted!
Yes, it really is that easy. Really.
Step 3: Install SuperSU
While TowelRoot will
root your device, it will not install a root manager, which is critical
for keeping malicious apps from gaining root access. Far and away the
best root manager is SuperSU from developer Chainfire. Head to the Play Store to grab the app directly.
Install
it and run. You can skip the part where the app asks if you'd like it
to remove KNOX, but to each their own. Either way, you're rooted and
ready to roll. And it couldn't have been easier.
