Benefits of rooting

Samsung Galaxy Pocket

After you root this phone

you will gain access to the

internal file system and thus

making potent changes in

them or accessing them will

be very much possible. Yes, for all those who love

speeding up the operating

system, rooting the phone

brings in benefit by way of

performance and speed

enhancement. Sometimes, you may feel

quite irritated with the

unwanted default apps which

the manufacturers packs in

without an uninstall button.

But since it is something that the administrator has

provided you, nothing can be

done. But rooting helps you in

removing the unwanted

default apps and that too

with a very simple method. Since rooting makes the

Android free, you can now

update the phone with

upgrades and custom ROMs.

You don’t need the permission

of the manufacturer for this. New kernel installation can

also be taken up and this

would surely thrill you up. You can enhance the visual

experience of the phone after

rooting.
