QUOTE(fuzore @ Mar 9 2011, 05:08 PM) play it safe... but remember root at ur own risk... Any reason need to root which it still fresh? If root warranty claim how if problem happen.do it while ur phone is still fresh out of the box with default setting.. take out the sdcard... and make sure usb debugging is turn on download soc 1.7 and and follow every step that is given... if everything went well reboot/restart ur phone after that... u'll see the superuser icon in apps drawer... |

I doubt so. The Samsung dealer probably told you this to discourage you from rooting.It's understandable really. Most people who have no idea what they are doing would brick their device in the process of rooting. This in turn would mean a lot of people would go back to the dealer, giving them headaches and all. Best bet is to be extra careful when you're rooting, flashing and what not. |

Best bet is to be extra careful when you're rooting, flashing and what not. but anyway, will be extra cautious when i root mine, still studying it for the time being. but at the moment, i couldnt get my ACE !!! most places also no stock, if not they charge quite expensive also. just now that samsung fella also told me, the ori set by SME is only 999 for phone without 2GB memory card, is this for real? anywhere i asked today also come with at least 2gb memory card! one last thing is that, they claim that they are the biggest dealer in msia =.= lastly, samsung dealer in pyramid says they are the special dealer and hence SME is giving them a special treatment, phones bought there are with 18 months warranty, i dont know who is right or who is wrong here... someone enlighten me please? thanks |

Rooting is pretty much easy and risk free, provided you follow the instructions. Though I have only rooted a LG Optimus One with z4root before.but anyway, will be extra cautious when i root mine, still studying it for the time being. but at the moment, i couldnt get my ACE !!! most places also no stock, if not they charge quite expensive also. just now that samsung fella also told me, the ori set by SME is only 999 for phone without 2GB memory card, is this for real? anywhere i asked today also come with at least 2gb memory card! one last thing is that, they claim that they are the biggest dealer in msia =.= lastly, samsung dealer in pyramid says they are the special dealer and hence SME is giving them a special treatment, phones bought there are with 18 months warranty, i dont know who is right or who is wrong here... someone enlighten me please? thanks The real risk is flashing something (kernel, ROM). |

QUOTE(mynewuser @ Mar 10 2011, 07:39 AM) yes u can but not all apps will be auto install into ur sdcard becoz some of the apps are still using old sdk i read about it in xda forum... and so u need to enable them first and to that u need a superuser and that means u need to root ur android... this is a big advantage for ACE user since the internal memory is so small more than 25-30 apps with average 2mb size file will left ur memory with no room anymore... and with move2sd enabled u could free up ur iinternal memory... but need to remind u again " DO THIS AT UR OWN RISK " and imo u need a bigger capacity of sdcard 8-16gb wih class 4 at least class 6-10 is better since u put alot of apps inside the sdcard it needs better read/write speed.. this are the links where u could read and understand more about the move2sd enabler apps which is a perfect combination with the app2sd apps... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720739 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...ghlight=move2sd |
