I have a Moto E and I want to root it so I can have more access. I can't link my SD card to my apps or connect SD or hotspot because it says I don't have root permission.

1Did you try searching on web? It could be that you tried something but didn't work, and it's better to detail your research so that the answerer can avoid it suggesting at last. Also, have you tried Methods/apps in this rooting index?– Firelord ♦May 31, 2015 at 11:31

Is this process OS dependent? I mean my Moto E (condor) has Lollipop 5.1 as the OS. So will the above process work for me? Apr 18, 2016 at 17:40
