Universal Androot is the popular one-click rooting solution that used to be able to root almost any device. Now that it’s in the Android Market it will still root many devices just not all of them.

The handsets that it will work on include the following:

  • Google Nexus One (2.2)
  • Google G1 (1.6)
  • HTC Hero (2.1)
  • HTC Magic (1.5) (Select Do not install Superuser)
  • HTC Tattoo (1.6)
  • Dell Streak (2.1)
  • Motorola Milestone (2.1)
  • Motorola XT701
  • Motorola XT800 (2.1)
  • Motorola ME511
  • Motorola Droid (2.01/2.1/2.2 with FRG01B)
  • Sony Ericsson X10 (1.6)
  • Sony Ericsson X10 Mini (1.6)
  • Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro (1.6)
  • Acer Liquid (2.1)
  • Acer beTouch E400 (2.1)
  • Samsung Galaxy Beam
  • Vibo A688 (1.6)
  • Lenovo Lephone (1.6)
  • LG GT540 (1.6)
  • Gigabyte GSmart G1305

The handset list that it doesn’t cover is much shorter than the one above. The reason it will not work on the following devices because they are equipped with the FRG22D version of Froyo. However, we may see one-click root coming to them in the near future.

  • Samsung i9000 / i6500U / i7500 / i5700
  • Motorola ME600 / ME501 / MB300 / CLIQ XT
  • Motorola 2.2 FRG22D
  • Archos 5
  • HuaWei U8220
  • HTC Desire / Legend / Wildfire (/system 無法寫入, 不過可以靠 Soft Root)
  • HTC EVO 4G / Aria
  • SonyEricsson X10i R2BA020
  • myTouch Slide

Universal Androot is available now on the Android Market.
