Rooting Android Phone

  Rooting device doesn't speeds up the processor. You can root device & remove the bloats which can have minor effect on speed. (Keyword : Minor)
  However, there are few custom kernels that are available with tweaks, custom I/O schedulers & Governors to improve performance. Also, Flashing third party scripts available in XDA can optimize your device.

  Sure.
  I searched & found for your device's development forum : #-Link-Snipped-#

  Root it ! Screw warranty. 😁
  I saw few Custom ROMS in XDA Developers forum for your device. You should really try them, especially AOSP one : #-Link-Snipped-#
  Also try custom kernels & settle for what suits you best.
  
  Note :
  - Gather all the information regarding rooting & flashing ROMS/Kernels for your device.
  - One mistake can soft-brick or even hard-brick your device, but risk is worthy - trust me on that.
  - Please ask question to the developers in xda if you're having trouble finding tools & tutorials for rooting device & flashing Custom ROM and Kernel. They're very friendly.
  
  Cheers.

  Glad I can help you.
  By the way, I would like to mention that Link2SD application will require root privilege in order to link the apps 😀

  Be careful for first time. Best way is to jot down steps on one paper & then perform it.
  Anyway it is not rocket science 😛
  Good luck 👍

  A piece of advice: Don't overclock your phone's processing speed...
  And if you want to increase it... At max 200 MHz.
  
  I've ruined my phone due to high clock speed... Sony Ericsson Xperia neo v.
  I changed it's speed from 1GHz to 1.6Ghz

  I too have done that from 832 MHz to 1.248 GHz: #-Link-Snipped-#
  I can maintain OC'ed x86_64 Processor, but OC'ed ARM Processor - that is quite risky.

  #-Link-Snipped-#: Thank yoiu friend. I'll take care of it. Infact, I would like to hear the experiences from other fellow ceans so that I don't end up bricking my phone.
  
  #-Link-Snipped-#: not yet. I'm still reading the stuff and knowing the concepts and procedure. Right now I've downloaded the PAC Rom for my phone (release version of 'urushi').
  Now my query is that if I follow the process of flashing this custom rom, will rooting be done automatically or I first need to root my phone and then flash the custom rom.

  Hurray. I've finally rooted my phone using 'eroot' rooting kit. I'm not pretty sure of what it has done and what all changes it has brought to my phone's software. But that was quite simple; I mean few clicks and wola! It would have been much better if I've would have able to go in some details. I'll definitely going to study it.
  
  Next step is flashing PACROM. Fingers crossed again.
  
  Fellow ceans, your words are important for me and my phone.
  
  I'm very excited.
  Thanks to all those who helped me.
  I'll come back to you soon after flashing the PACROM.

  #-Link-Snipped-# You've simply gained root access, which means that now you can change anything in the core files.
  Waiting for your successful flashing of PAC-ROM. Do upload the pics of new ROM in your device here : Show-Off Your Custom ROMS
  
  BTW, It is better to take backup using ClockWorkMod (CWM) before flashing Custom ROM. It can be life- saving, while flashing ROM you might soft-brick your device. In that case, you can restore the backup.
