MCocktail 183 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hey, i know some of you also rooted your phones. What did you do else? for example, i didnt only root my phone but accidently killed it by deleting the android system on it. Of course i fixed it after that. I installed cyanogenmod 11. i wreckt my phone again trying to get lollipop. Couldnt install 12, couldnt install paranoid android 5.1, so i had to settle with the stock lollipop, which fortunately worked. so yeah, anyone also experienced anything like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjaminbt 320 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I have rooted my Galaxy Y, for me it worked well, even CyanogenMod. When I got my Nexus 5, I rooted that too, worked again fine. For Nexus I use root to update OS before th official release, to use a root file explorer, to be able to use apps which require SuperUser (for example screen capture aps), and to get an absolute control over my phone. I can use fake IPs if I want, I can test my phone in different situations, etc. Also it is possible to actually set everything to default, so that warranty doesn't get lost... And if it does? Who cares, phones don't usually get rekt. Or at least mine don't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleidoscope 142 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) I was actually planning to root my device (samsung tablet), but the fact that you can cause damage by doing it wrong, caused me to not do it. The price of wrecking my device just to be able to use those screen cams is way too high. I normaly jump right into such stuff when it comes to android, but sorta don't want to take the risk this time.

Well, I have experience from Android for many years, and I havent broken any phones yet. I have soft bricked my phones for million times but its easy to fix again It has many risks, yes, but if you do things right, the risk is so ridiculously small. But after all, its up to you if you root your device or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleidoscope 142 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Nay its ez pz And imna annoy u with screen-vids then Tried to root it by using a old notebook, it wanted to connect to the net and stuff, as I know that most of such stuff gets restricted by anti-virus programs I rather aborted. Is there an offline root aviable? Every root-app I tried always tries to connect to servers or whatever. I guess that would be more reliable, and the notebook seems like it's not able to connect to my tathering hot-spot, so an online root isn't possible anyways.

MCocktail 183 Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 You just need to install the right libraries in the system folder of your phone, and the rooting programs search for them then %) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosotraes 345 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 It reboots automatically, so I don't think that that would be a very big problem. I ran it several times more with the superuser uninstalled, simply gave me a "failure". It rebooted my phone, still no root. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiefmastr 9 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Wow a thread for android freaks I contribute to this thread with my rooted Galaxy Note 4 running with Paranoid 5.1 hehe. Flashed this phone at least a couple hundred times lol My old phone is the Galaxy S5 rooted with StocKK and Knox 0x0 (Don't know what Knox is? Well never had a newer Galaxy device, eh? Basically some bullshit Samsung implemented in the phone which normally gets triggered to 0x1 if you root/flash etc) Don't buy a Galaxy device if you are planning to root/flash/modify your phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
