hello guys i am new to evrything here. i just bought my galaxy 3 yesterday and i saw a term called "rooting". i dont know what it is.
I would like to know what are the advantages of rooting my phone and what are the disadvantages of it.
Rooting mean gAining administator rights of your phone...means the full control...like on g3 yu cant use live wallpapers without rootin...and there are programs who need full access to work. .so rootin is necessary...

hey guys i tried to root and it failed and my phone is stuck on Samsung logo can anybody tell me what i can do now to make the phone boot up again
Hi guys!
So, I plan to get a brand - new Galaxy S i9000, after years of being a WinMob HTC user. Right now I'm just prospecting around and it's pretty unclear for me where to start reading about the root process the Galaxy S needs to receive. So I decided to call for help, if anyone would care to point me in the right direction with any link(s). Just keep in mind I'm not very familiar with the Android and I'll have a not rooted, unlocked Galaxy S to "play" with (and hopefully not to brick).
Thanks in advance!
Read darkstriders sticky. Download odin. Then read some more. You'll need to flash a custom kernel (cfroot) for whichever firmware your phone is currently running. Then you'll be good to go. Steer clear of anything alpha or beta til you've a bit of experience and know how to fix a soft bricked phone.
Hi everyone..
Well... After i installed the custom recovery in my Samsung galaxy S4 Canada "Rogers", and also flashed the CyanogenMod 10.2. i've got many problems in ma phone and the main one was because i'm not use to CyanogenMod thing. So. i got the Custom recovery "TeamWin" and i want to remove that completely from ma phone and i want to get back to the stock device and stock recovery as well.. Please!
i need the full details from where to get the files and where or how to use Odin with that.. I know i sound creepy but im just new to this whole Galaxy world and i don't know what to do.. all of your help is appreciated and i'll be more than just thankful to each one of you
Please pay attention to the device forum in which you seek help
There are many models of S4 and use of some software will turn your device into a $700 paperweight

ok so I purchased a note 3 recently from a friend and I am at the dreaded 27% install issue people are having for kitkat.
The phone does say custom upon starting with the open pad lock, upon checking a root checker app it seems the phone is not rooted.
I is a att phone, does this means it is unlocked? it also says under version 4.3 so i dont think its a custom rom?
My main question is, if I take this phone to bestbuy to a samsung hub will they update it for me to kitkat even with the padlock open on my startup screen?
Please keep in mind im totally new to android so any help will be appreciated! thank you!
Sorry to be a noob to this all.. and I know this is most likely the wrong place to post this thread (this forum is huge btw)
Can someone help me.. Complete noob here, I just got myself the new GS5 and have made the switch from Apple to Android now, I only have a macbook pro and have no idea how I can root my galaxy s5 with the macbook? Can anyone help?
I am an Australian user.. who has the latest SGS 5, SM-G900I that is locked to Optus (network).
I have the latest macbook pro late 2013 edition with os x mavericks on it.
I've worked out some basics.. like I have Samsung Kies now working on the mac to do file transfer etc..
I have the developers option menu open on my GS device with USB debugging ticked..
But that's as much as I can do.. I don't know how or what program to use on my mac to perform the rooting and or what kind of rooting I need to do??
I'm not to good with terminal? or inputting commands into terminal.. complete noob with that
Can someone here.. please, please help me out and point me in the right direction.. I've looked all over google.. most info I have found though is for the GS4 or older version of android etc.
And like I said earlier.. I am overwhelmed by this forum site as it is huge and I don't know where to begin to look?
I would also like to know.. I've seen screenshots of in videos of where people have 4 + apps in their "app draw" including an internet browser..
Mine has come pre loaded with only 3 main apps in the "app draw".. these are, phone, contacts & messages + the apps button.
How can I edit/ add or remove apps in and out of that bottom app draw area, I am yet to find that option anywhere on this phone??
