I recommend to root if you are wiling to backup the internal rom. Because that can help you to go ahead with experimenting new roms. So here in this short tip I am going to show you the process of rooting. Remember that this process void the phone warranty. That means once rooted the phone does not has any warranty left.

The process looks really simple here. I am looking for some custom roms. I searched on web. This device does not has ample of good custom roms. I had seen many for HTC devices. I like the device performance. After rooting I am able to get rid of additional things from the phone like those unwanted pre-installed apps. I had backup the rom also and will test a few rom. Titanium Backup works really well after rooting.
