The Xcover is a device that was released back in 2011 and apart from being sturdy with resistance to dirt and water, came with Android 2.3 on board.  Samsung, as usual, hasn�t been too keen on releasing updates for this now low-end device and seems to ignore the fact that users want more from their devices as days go by.  But the developer community hasn�t been idle and as a first step, this device can be rooted to at least install root-requiring apps that enable customizing your device a bit more than what it is at stock.  The guide below will show you how to do just that � root the Galaxy Xcover.
