Rooting Steps:

1. Enable Developer Options: Go to Settings > About Phone and tap "Build Number" seven times. You'll receive a toast message saying "You are now a developer!"
2. Enable "OEM Unlocking" and "USB Debugging": Go to Settings > Developer Options and enable both options.
3. Extract the downloaded CF-Auto-Root zip file.
4. Run Odin Flashing Tool on your computer.
5. Put your J500G into Download Mode: Turn it off, then press and hold Power + Volume Down + Home buttons simultaneously. Connect your phone to your computer while holding these buttons. You'll see a blue screen on your phone.
6. In Odin, click the "AP" tab and select the "tar.md5" file from the extracted CF-Auto-Root folder.
7. Leave all other options in Odin as default.
8. Click "Start" to begin the rooting process. This might take a few minutes.
9. Once done, your phone will reboot automatically.

Verifying Root Access:

Once your J500G reboots, you can install a root checker app like "Root Checker" from the Play Store to verify if the rooting process was successful.

Remember:

• Rooting can wipe your data, so backup everything before proceeding.
• Download the correct CF-Auto-Root file for your specific J500G model.
• Follow the steps carefully and at your own risk.
• Consider the risks before rooting, as it may void your warranty and compromise your phone's security.

Alternatives:

If you're not comfortable with rooting, consider using alternative methods to obtain similar features, such as installing custom ROMs through Odin without root access.
