It's because you could destroy our phone by yourself. Rooting let's you do things that the phone doesn't want you to like deleting certain files that break your phone.

Hi, i was wondering if its possible that by rooting a phone you can make it work on more LTE frequencies. For example the Samsung Galaxy S5 Dual Sim SM-G900FD 4G LTE does not work in the 2300Mhz and 700Mhz bands. can rooting it allow you to make adjustments to the phone that will allow it to also operate in those bandwidths. thank you in advance

[@dronexfun8469]

Hey man, I didn't know where to ask but I bought a refurbished Galaxy S6 (sm-g920p) a couple years ago and it's gone through 3 batteries in the last 18 months, it keeps dropping wifi in a house where other devices have no problems and it will just shut off for no apparent reason. Should I upgrade to Android 9 or 10 with a custom ROM or should I just get a different phone? I like the size of the S and thinking about a Galaxy Note 4 or a Google pixel 2 or 3 and I don't want to spend more than $200, I don't use a smartphone very often. Thanks a million for sharing and please excuse the ignorance.

Root allows you to fuck every day and it allows you to double your sallary wherever you work, your Boss just accepts all your requests for a higher sallary.This happens only by rooting your phone. It also brings you some bonus features ,special apps that control your car to drive without gas or petrol,only by satelite energy from the space.

[@surrenderradio2064]

quitaulla 1 I think your confusion back then was that be didn’t explain how to do it. He has videos on this. Also, rooting (in this sense) is the ability to open up the phones full capacity to make personalized changes to the operating system. Some perks, mostly for tech enthusiasts who want full control over their devices. P.s. my name has nothing to do with phone rooting.

[@Vampireknight1131]

I have a question. I have the Galaxy s5 and it's real annoying that I'm not able to connect my phone to my ps3 so I can transfer videos and music. My question is, if I root my s5 will I be able to transfer my stuff over? And if not does anyone know a app I can download to help me?

It's been three years since this comment if you still didnt get it done well go to safe mode hold power button and hold on power off to go to safe mode once you do go to application and uninstall the app thats causing you trouble after that just restart your phone to get back to normal.

Let's say i root my GS3 and install some rom like for example Criskelo (when ever available on i747) would i be able to go back to factory reset (ICS 4.0.4) or am i forever doomed with my new ROM ? if yes how ? (just making sure i can do this, before i root my phone...)

hello! If it's a brand new phone it cannot be rooted. The owner of the phone is the one who can root the phone to customize the looks of the phone, change the operating system, install apps to hack apps, over or underclock the cpu( make your processor, basically the brain of the phone go faster but use more battery or go slower but use less battery) and much more.
