Root Bricking wile rooting

Rooting is pretty simple and straightforward, there are just a couple of gotchas so make sure you:
- Make sure the root method is for your SPECIFIC model device and version of Android.
- Make sure you've got all the files and apps in the right place before you begin.
- Do not power off or disconnect during the rooting process.
- Don't panic if it doesn't work the first time. Sometimes it takes a few attempts.
