I’ve been searching for an easy way to root my Samsung Galaxy Proclaim for some time now. There used to be a way to do it using ODIN and some custom ROMs, but the links I found through Google using this method have gone dead.

Luckily, I came across a one-click-root app today that worked for this phone! The app is called Framaroot, I found it in a thread on the XDA forum. Instructions for installing and using the app are in the thread. You’ll need to enable installation of apps from unknown sources and download the appropriate APK from the list in the thread.

The rooting process did not work at first when I tried the latest version of Framaroot, but I was able to root my Samsung Galaxy Proclaim using version 1.5.3 with the option “Install SuperSU”. If the links in that thread don’t work, you could also check http://framaroot.net/.

System information for my Samsung Galaxy Proclaim is below and proof of root:
