How to Root Samsung Galaxy J2 (SM-J200H)

Samsung Galaxy J2 is one of the phones that Samsung has launched in its J lineup of budget smartphones. Since it’s a budget Android smartphone, it’s not the top of the line with hardware, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a great device (it does have that Super AMOLED display that Samsung is famous for after all).

If you aren’t satisfied with what you have on the phone, however, might want to root the Galaxy J2. With root access you’ll be allowed to remove the existing stock apps from your phone, add new apps that require root access, flash a custom recovery which will then let you flash a custom ROM, and more. There’re tons of things you can do when your phone’s rooted and the following guide will walk you through rooting the Samsung Galaxy J2 and flashing a custom recovery on it.
