- First enable Unknown sources on your phone (Settings -> Applications -> Unknown sources)

(You can tranfer the Universal_GB_ROOT_v9.zip to your phone via Wifi, Bluetooth, SD micro Adapter or USB cable. To transfer it via USB cable you need first to download KIES from the offical Samsung Web Site and after installing restart your PC so the USB drivers can be recognized properly.

I knows tht...but what will be benefit to me after rooting...???

it basically gives you the privileges to do things that are not supposed to be done by unexperienced users. For eg after rooting u may uninstall apps that come preinstalled and are unuseful
