You've got a Samsung Galaxy Nexus. You're eager to obtain superuser permissions, but don't want to fuss with command lines? Listen up: a one-click solution has been posted to the forums over on AndroidCentral to help make the process a bit easier. Developed by WugFresh, the Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit automatically installs the superuser.apk and ClockworkMod Recovery to give you total control over Google's sexy new superphone -- not to mention one step closer to installing your favorite ROM. The tool can also easily undo your lazy work, removing the aforementioned software and restoring the OEM-lock. The utility runs on Windows PCs and, for the time being, only supports Verizon's iteration of the newest Nexus; the posting promises a GSM compatible version soon. Hit the source link if you're interested.Update: It should be noted that the Galaxy Nexus, as with all Nexus phones, can be unlocked fairly easily using the OEM unlock command via the Android SDK. This one-click solution merely automates the process.
