At the time of this writing, there is no custom recovery available for this device, which means no themes or custom ROMs. The device can be easily Rooted though. Follow the steps below carefully, & you should have no problems, however proceed at your own risk. I will be trying to build a recovery for this device, but won't be anytime soon. The Rooting Guide below is for Windows Users.

1.) Download & Install The USB Drivers For The SCH-I857, or you can use PDA-Net (Recommended)
