There are a couple ways this can be achived ONE is the One Click Root method, unfortunatly it took me 10 tries and still didn't have root the other is a stock/rooted odin package that was made by another guy on another forum which i will post a link to his package it has a readme in it and if you follow the instructions you will have root within about 5 minute... (this is also nice to have if your like me and like to experiment with your phone and do a fubar move like i did yesterday.. and bricked my phone, less than 5 minutes and it was back up and running.) so anyway here is the link to the ODIN root method Enjoy

The One Click Root is for the Prevail.. but also is supposed to work on Precedent. as i stated i tried 10 times and still nothing my choice for rooting the precedent is the ODIN Root Method, yes its a bigger file but works extremely well

Hi,
I followed the instructions, but what keeps happening error messages say files could not be copied, but at the end it says you should be rooted, but I'm not. I've been doing this for so many days. I know you are very busy, but could you walk me through this? One question I had was the drivers that I downloaded to the laptop, how does my phone upload them? And if it did upload them, I do that before I unmount the sd card, right? The second thing is, when the phone reboots, the screen is automatically locked, so I've tried unlocking it and also not touching it, but neither worked. Please help me out.

Thanks so much.

Diana

The best way to root the precedent i have found is the odin

or put AreaRom odin on your phone it is prerooted and frees up a TON of space.
