Rooting an Android device allows you to take advantage of a number of additional options, such as using more memory or the ability to install modified software, run special applications, and more. If you want to root your Android device without using a computer, you can do so using the Framaroot or Universal and Root app developed specifically for this purpose and platform.
Steps
Method 1 of 2: Using Framaroot
Step 1. Download the Framaroot application APK file to your Android device using the following link:

Step 2. After the download of the APK file is finished, press the "Menu" button of the device and choose the "Settings" item
Step 3. Tap the "Security" option, then select the "Unknown sources" checkbox
If the item "Unknown sources" is not listed in the "Security" section of the "Settings" menu, try looking for it in the "Applications" tab of the same menu
Step 4. Launch the Android "Archive" app or the file manager you normally use to access the device's file system
Use it to open the folder where you downloaded the Framaroot app APK file.
