Root How to Root Samsung Galaxy W???

I want to install a Screen Capture App but it said I have to root my phone first. Can somebody tell me how to root Samsung Galaxy W? I really don't understand how to~ help please thanksss!!! ><

Hi Ruth...

First....

can I tell you you do not need an App to do screen capture on your phone!!!

Here is how to do it.. .

When you are in the screen you want to capture....

just press "Home" and "Power" keys together....and release both!!

Power just on/off quickly....

it will show message like below....

[If task manager pop-up happens before you get a chance to press power....just dismiss this with back button (right soft key)....then... press power and release immediately]

You will find the screen capture pic in Gallery under ScreenCapture !!!

Or....if you want to.....

in any file manager.....

like default "MyFiles"...

sdcard/ScreenCapture....
