The Sharp Aquos SH930W was released back in November last year, and is one of the first Android smartphone that comes with a 1080p display – apart from the HTC J Butterfly. Besides its incredible retina display, the Sharp Aquos SH930W doesn’t really impress us with its specifications which fetch a score of just 10,197 in AnTuTu Benchmark. That being said, we’re still able to tweak the performance of the device, by overclocking its processing power. To do so, we must first have root-access on the device itself. If you have no idea how to do so, this tutorial will guide you on actually how to root the Sharp Aquos SH930W.
Before we begin, I would like to warn you that during the process of rooting, there is a risk of bricking your own device. So if you still want to proceed, you’ll be doing it at your own risk and we will hold no responsible for any form of damage on your device. Its a good practice for you to backup your device to an external source apart from your own SD Card.
