 To root, nor not to root..... - No FM2R
I have had 4 smartphones and 1 iPhone.

HTC One, Samsung S3, S4, S5. I've rooted the S4 and then unrooted it. I've never rooted any of the others.

The truth is, I don't quite get it.

I have found very little, if anything, on the S4 that I could do rooted that I could not do unrooted. When I've replaced the supplied OS with various alternatives, I've never found any significant advantages, and I've certainly found disadvantages in loss of facilities on the hardware.

Its not like phones these days are lacking in space or memory.

So, I don't get what I'm not getting.

Am I missing something? Because I like to fiddle, and I find it frustrating not to see any reason to do so.
