QUOTE(Ema Tong @ May 14 2012, 11:28 PM) Honestly, sometimes I prefer buying AP than original sets. Reason being it cheaper, more colour choices such as pink, and as long as it's from a reputable distributor it's good. |

But use it with your own discretion.. It is for a FACT that maybe 3% will get unlucky.. and the rest will be able to flash in cwm without any problems.. kthxbai XD |

All same.. hmm..actually it depend on user either he/she need to root their device..as for me root can giv access to system file that been lock to unroot device,also can do full backup apps and system data,ability to transfer installed apps into ur sd card and install use custom rom..Bro, why u root ur phone? I still confuse either want to root or not.. this i quote from 1st page post #6 QUOTE Rooting an Android phone opens its core functions that aren’t available when you buy it. One of the major benefits is the ability to install apps to the SD card, which saves space on the device. Rooting also enables you to install apps that required access to system files, example - Titanium Backup , Root Explorer, AdFree, Voltage Control apps, etc . Commonly use of rooting is to allow installation of alternative or custom roms which is faster and better, more features, and reduced bloatware. |
