A n d r o i d
- Ito ay isang Mobile Operating System based sa Linux system na dinevelop ng Google. Ang mga mobile devices na meron nito ay smartphones at
tablets.
Rooting
- Ito ay isang paaran upang ma-access ang unix
system at makapagbigay ng
permiso para ma-access
ito upang ma-modify. Katulad sa
Windows pc na na maaccess mo ang admin kung saan maaring mo ma-modify ang system information ng
computer.
Flashing
- Ito ay paraan upang ma-laod o mainstall ang isang OS, Custom ROM, modified application, Kernel at ibang system requirements through Recovery (CWM, TWRP)
and Flashing tools (eh. ODIN, HEIMDALL, FLASHTOOL)
Bootloader
Ito yung code na nagra-run bago magstart ang
OS. Parang sa
PC meron din bootloader or
startup boot. May mga manufacturer na locked ang
bootloader tulad sa HTC merong Hboot.
Pagkakaiba ng
unlocking bootloader sa
rooting:
Ang rooting ay isang
proseso upang magbigay ng permiso
para i-modify ang system katulad nito ang permiso
ng admin sa pc.
Ang pag unlock ng bootloader ay pagpasok sa
system ng phone, (hindi mismo ang OS). Bali tinatanggal lang
natin ang harang na nilagay
ng manufacturer para magalaw ang phone sa anumang kaparaanan.
Hindi ka makakapag root o makakapag-flash
kung hindi pa unlock ang bootloader. Pero ito'y depende
kung ang root ay nangagailangan ng pag modify sa kernel, pero kung hindi ay maaari pa ring makapagroot tulad sa Xperia.
Ang Samsung ang isa sa mga tanging Android phone na hindi lock ang
bootloader.
