GrandMufti:This is true, sah. However, sah, a rooted phone will be FAR more deeply penetrated and compromised than non-root. So much so that you might as well throw the phone away... πΆπΏββοΈ |

Okporiaku:But... The average Joe would rather have the NSA and/or People's Liberation Army, Third Department, General Staff HQ; spying on their text messages and looking at their in flagrante photos than have Netflix broken because Widevine DRM got wiped when they rooted their phone... πΆπΏββοΈ |

Seunfunmi18: Same here too, my note 9 is rooted i want to uproot it but I'm not sure of samsung pass and knox and updates will still work on it |

thepoweruser: Thats why rooting is not for the average joe U can't have everything Am a power user who doesn't care about camera and videos I just want raw performance Every one has a reason they got their phone 1 Like |

Okporiaku:Did you hear about Android 14 blocking installation of "outdated" apps (Android 6.0 below) because "they can compromise the security of the device"? That's bullcrap, if you ask me. Now now, someone out there might be saying "Why you wailing about outdated apps being blocked?" Are y'all forgetting something? It's only a matter of time before you start hearing Google say, "Android 16 has blocked usage of third party app stores due to'security concerns' " and the whole damn (average) world would swallow such sh*t hook, line and sinker without choking as we power users would do. π€ The day that happens, wallahi I will be done with Android. πΆπΏββοΈπΆπΏββοΈπΆπΏββοΈπΆπΏββοΈ |

Re: What Are The Pros And Cons Of Rooted Phones by thepoweruser(m): 9:24am On Feb 28, 2023 |
thepoweruser: I assume you were wondering what I was laughing about. Well I just remembered this story of how the Mossad (Israeli intelligence service) wanted to take out this one terrorist. You wanna know how they did it? They used a satellite signal to disable the phone and got him a replacement, with ten ounces of C-4 in the plastic case. Then someone called the number and pressed the # key. You gonna guess what happened next?... Modified: The guys name was Yahya Ayyash... |

thepoweruser:It will surely come Android that is renowned for being open source will surely follow apples footsteps in being restrictive What i like is that their are other alternatives like huawei But i hope that days doesn't come |

With the android OS's improvements over the years, the practice of rooting is no longer beneficial or worthy......this is my IMHO |

DEXTROVERT: Mine is even running on Android 9. I can't even update it to Android 10 or 11. And it's rooted I read one article like that, that if we unroot it, some Samsung features would stop working. |

thepoweruser: If that happens.... Walahi, e don be for us. π’ The Alure of Android has always been it's customisability and the third party appendages you can get if Official Google doesn't give you what you want. We wey love modded apps go shed tears. π©π€ If that day happens, there's no need sticking to android then. Na to port go iPhone since we know say na prison we dey. I don't think Google will be so stupid to do that. Majority of its early success comes from there. |

Okporiaku: How sure are we that Harmony OS is as open sourced as early Google? Especially when you consider their Chinese roots? I'd like Huawei to be back bigger and stronger sha, just that they ain't got a chipset ready. Although I heard they working on it and could deliver soon. |

GrandMufti:OK thanks man...it is just because of this bank wahala that is making me to think twice about rooting my current transhion device |
Re: What Are The Pros And Cons Of Rooted Phones by GrandMufti: 2:45pm On Feb 28, 2023 |
SCOOPERJEF: I wouldn't advice you to a root a transsion device because they lack support; compared to Snapdragon devices e.g Xiaomi |

GrandMufti:the only thing that make me want to try root access is because of how frequently the phone freezes despite having 3GB ram and not that I even use heavy apps aside Uc browser and GTA sandreas .. |

I concur. All the information you need regarding rooted phones is online. Can't even believe someone is asking for money to provide freely available information. Just SMH... |
