The development team known as LBE, the same group of hackers who ported
Android to run on the M8, have reported that they have successfully rooted the latest
M9 handset!
The rooting process, which has yet to be revealed, means that M9 owners will have
root access to their phones and will be able to add officially unsupported
applications to the
Android 2.2 powered phone. 2 additions I would personally like to see would be a text messaging app that supports landscape as well as
offline maps cache.
News of the claimed successful rooting of the M9 is great, but is it already too late? CEO
Jack Wong mentioned that
Android 2.3 could be ready as
early as next week! Will the update make the current rooting process redundant?
