1- Put your handset on a diet
The first benefit of accessing administrator privileges over
Android is full control over the applications installed on your
handset. No longer do you have to suffer from the cluttered
app drawers and reduced memory space taken up by pre-
installed carrier and manufacturer applications, you can
instantly cut the bloatware and keep only the apps that you
really want.
Even if you’re up to date with Android 4.1 or above, which
grants users the ability to disable these pre-installed apps if
you don’t want to see or use them, you can’t permanently
remove them, they’re still there eating up your memory
space. Rooting is the only way to permanently get rid of these
pesky apps, but please don’t uninstall something crucial or
your handset may stop working properly. Apps like Titanium
Backup are particularly helpful for organising and culling this
bloatware.
2- Better backups
This brings me nicely on to the next major benefit of Android,
improved backup and restore options. As already mentioned,
Titanium Backup is one of the most popular backup apps
used by rooters, and this, or a similar app, is essential if
you’re going to start tinkering around with Android software.
But as well as acting as a safety net in case you uninstall
something important, Titanium Backup can also be used to
backup your user data, from SMS messages to browser
bookmarks.
ClockworkMod Recovery offers superior protection
against faulty updates and bricking your handset.
Even better still, once rooted you can create complete backups
of your entire handset using the ClockworkMod Recovery
option, providing you with extra protecting in case of a major
malfunction. Recovery can only be accessed before booting
into Android, but it provides additional backup options in
case, for whatever reason, Android fails to boot properly or
experiences a crippling error. This makes ClockworkMod
Recovery an essential tool for those looking to install custom
versions of Android.
3- Keep up to date with the latest version of
Android
Once you’re fully backed up you’re ready to move up to one
of the other major perks of rooting, installing different
versions of Android.
We all know that manufacturers are often pretty slow at
delivering the latest Android offerings even to their flagship
handsets, let alone aging devices. So if you’re not a Nexus or
Play Edition device owner, rooting opens the door to much
faster Android updates, thanks to the developers who put
time into porting the latest updates to various handsets.
Pretty much every semi-popular handset has a decent
following of developers working on porting the latest versions
of Android to their handsets, most of which can be found
over on the XDA Forum. The only sacrifice here is that you
won’t receive official manufacturer versions of Android, so
no updated Touchwizz or Sense5 features, but if we were
really too worried about that we probably wouldn’t be
rooting in the first place.
4- Custom ROMs galore
If stock Android isn’t your thing, there are also tons of other
customized ROMs offering unique features and improvements
to the default Android experience.
AOSP has given us so many custom ROM’s, and has
extended the lifespan of many an Android handset.
I’m sure you’ve all heard of the biggest names, CyanogenMod,
Paranoid Android, MIUI to name just a few of the most
popular ones. Many custom ROMs are actually at the
forefront of innovation on Android, offering several features
that aren’t available anywhere else. Paranoid Android’s Halo
feature or OmniROM’s multi-workspace mode are just a
couple of examples.
But as well as these big third party developments, you’ll also
find a lot of smaller developers tweaking away at the core
Android experience, offering ROMs with vastly superior
battery life or overclocked processor speeds. Not to mention
that most custom ROMs are updated to the latest version of
Android very quickly too, bringing you the best of both
worlds.
5- Administrator privileged apps
As rooting opens up administrator type privileges on your
handset you’ll instantly have access to all the core files on
your handset. File browser apps can take full advantage of
this, allowing you to move stuff around on your internal
memory if so require.
App wise, we’ve already touched on Titanium Backup, but
there are far more apps that can make use of root
permissions, and simply aren’t available with a non-rooted
device. The speed junkies among you could take advantage of
overclocking software to boost performance or save on
battery life, providing that your Kernel supports overclocking.
Alternatively, fans of custom ROMs can use a ROM manager
to install and update their operating system without the need
to flash zip files from Recovery.
Rooting is sometimes criticized for compromising handset
security, but security apps, such as Cerberus, use root
functions to bury themselves deep down into the operating
system, making them hard for would be thieves to remove.
These apps can also be granted permissions that aren’t
available on unrooted devices, such as access to GPS data
even when the device is locked.
There’s also additional gesture apps , data syncing software,
and even theme managers to customize the look of your
handset.
6- Dress to impress
My final reason for rooting your handset is the wider range
of customization and theming options, after all who doesn’t
want their desktop to look pretty.
Looking good there Android.
Although there are options to tweak themes and whatnot that
don’t require rooting, usually through third part launchers
such as ADW, rooting gives you access to the important files
needed to make changes in folders that are usually hidden
from users. Access to the /system/fonts folder allows users to
install and replace custom fonts. You can also flash zip files
from Recovery to install themes too. But if all that folder
browsing isn’t for you, there are also a few root only theme
applications to choose from.
One example is Theme Chooser, included by default as part of
CyanogenMod, which has plenty of custom themes available,
and even works with ADW themes too. Alternatively, the
XThemeEngine works with all rooted handsets, allowing you
to pick between themes after installing them from traditional
apk files, so there’s no need to flashing zip files or tinkering
in system folders.
As you can see there’s plenty of stuff to do with your rooted
handset. If those aren’t enough reasons to root your handset,
then I don’t know what is. Why do you root your device?
