How to use SnoopSnitch

To use SnoopSnitch, a rooted device with a Qualcomm chipset is required. Unfortunately, custom ROMs are often unsupported at the moment as they can lack necessary proprietary kernel module. (Some successful CyanogenMod installs have been reported and Sense Custom Rom also showed positive feedback)
