Root Help me root my phone!

I need some help with rooting my phone. I know how to root phones and I'm not dumb when it comes to dealing with technology and CWM, and etc but where is the link so I can root my phone correctly.
What if I want to unroot my phone? How would I do that?
I also want to uninstall some bloat apps, how would I do that?
Lastly, what are some things I can do with the root, other than uninstalling the bloat apps. I know the last time I had root on this phone (which was defective after trying this) was trying to change my font through the JRummy Font Installer app. Should I stay away from that app? Or is it completely safe. I know, it's a lot of questions that I could easily look for but I just want to make sure I have it right so that nothing goes wrong and I don't have to repurchase this phone like last time. And please don't suggest to me that "Maybe you shouldn't retry it." Trust me, I have had that battle with myself a million times. I'm ready now. Thanks to whoever can help me :)
 
Try Kingo to root the phone. Once the phone is rooted, running it again will unroot the phone.

To remove bloat, freeze the app you don't want. (Link2SD will work for that.) If, after a few days of using the phone, freezing the app doesn't cause any problems, uninstall it. (If it's a system app and can't be uninstalled, Link2SD can convert it to a user app.)

Changing fonts on phones is iffy - it seems to depend on the model of the phone, the font you're installing, the app you're using to install it and the wills of the gods. Sometimes what works on one phone doesn't work on another phone of the same model.

As far as other things - you can run any app that requires superuser access and you can do anything (using adb or a terminal app) that requires it. That's hundreds of things with dozens of options each, so no one can give you a list here. Install Linux and read every man page to see if it requires su - if it does, read what the function described on that page does. Then you'll know about half of what you can do. [The other half is using those functions in ways the people who wrote them never thought of.)

Make sure to have a recovery and to do a backup of your phone before trying to install fonts and stuff so you can get it back to working order if something goes wrong...

i tried using both exploits on framaroot and both gave me an error msg... help?

Same here, but I actually only have one option to choose.
Is gandalf no longer available? I am only seeing aragorn.
I am currently trying to root my ZTE Warp 4g with my Macbook Pro.
If anyone has a guide or has successfully rooted their ZTE Warp 4g, I would greatly appreciate the help!
Framaroot is only gonna work if in JB 4.1.2 OS
Don't forget to enable USB debugging, which is in Settings - Developer's options
