Why root?

[chazcon]

What is the purpose of rooting? To allow more freedom to install apps, and add more goodness to the phone?

Just to open up the capabilities of your phone. See link 2 in my sig to learn more

To have access to, literally, everything on your phone. Complete and full customization! :dancedroid:

Free WiFi tethering for when you just gotta have it?

 

[Ardax]

To remove the bloatware crap that VZW has saddled our phones with. (CityID, Amazon MP3, and CDROM.ISO, I'm looking at you.)

Or to install an AOSP-based ROM (e.g. CyanogenMod) instead of Sense.

after which I downloaded the software and read their entire site on the process it requires , watched the video and actually, after I did it and it said completed --done it was so freaking easy i thought I messed up and did the process again to make sure lmao!


Since then about 3 weeks ago, I've been learning more and more and loving it!
