Your “Disadvantages for rooting Android” each have a bright side.
Bricking Your Device; Not following instructions due to poor comprehension will lead to a bricked device. Pay attention at all times. I never bricked a device in 5 years, starting out as a total newb. Anything Man wishes to master can be done through research, study, and practice.
No Warranty: (Hardware) *****ed screen/ broken buttons/ *****ed housing, ect, are covered. If you alter the software and it malfunctions, no company is obligated to fix the device. If your ‘New’ device is not insured, you shouldn’t root. Period.
Tweaking Risks: All real root users KNOW to make backups before tinkering after gaining root. The first backup should have been of the stock rom before intial root (For un-rooting the device). Got a problem> Turn off phone> Reboot to recovery> Cue up the backup you created 5 minutes ago…flash it…you’re back to where you were before the issue(s) arose. Too easy. This is not a real problem.
Ad Blocking: I use ρáíd apps only (No ads), and employ system-wide ad blocking for browsing. I would gladly pay extra for an ad-free environment. But, until then…
Update Problems: Unroot> Get Update> ReRoot. Who can’t get updates??? The problem is some of those who root have not practiced unrooting. That’s a personal problem, not an update/ system/ Android problem.
I always root for full device customization, stellar audio (Viper4Android), cutting off Googles’ data mining flow, free WiFi hotspot (Always a bonus!), precise backups stored locally (SD card), removing all carrier apps, changing cellular DNS servers (Google/ Sprint servers do not get any search queries for advertising profiles), superior battery life, and a root level firewall (VPN Firewalls don’t stop all data tunneling) that stops all ports from transmitting data unless I allow it (The opposite of Googles’ flowing data business model).
I’ve rooted devices for years now right out of the box. Never a problem. If one was curious, research, pay attention, practice, and you should be fine.

The advantages of rooting Android

#1 – Rooting Android – Installation of custom ROMs
You can install a custom ROM or Kernel after you root you device, which essentially means you get a new device software-wise. In fact, this is often the biggest reason for people to root their devices. Custom ROMs offer several performance fixes and tweaks to your system, and are typically more user-friendly than stock ones. They are optimized for battery and performance and update more frequently than stock ROMS do.

A kernel is part of the You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. that helps apps and others control hardware aspects of the device. There are several goodies that accompany a custom kernel for a rooted Android device. For one, you can add features previously not available and improve the battery life and performance of your device. A ROM is essentially a modified Android version that can be installed, once again with extra features and several other benefits. Custom ROMs can be installed even without rooting, but it is much better to use one on a rooted device than an un-rooted one. They can significantly change the look and feel of your device. What’s great about them is that they also come as stock Android, which gives you the basic Android install typical in most devices. This can come surprisingly in handy when you want to un-root your device.

#2 – Rooting Android – Removing pre-installed OEM apps
Every Android phones comes with a bunch of apps directly from the manufacturer. Some of them are good, but most of them are plain useless, if not worse, and you cannot even remove them. Once you root your device, however, all those apps can go away and you can get the most out of your machine.

#3 – Rooting Android – Ad-blocking for all apps
Ad-blocking is simple on a web browser, but it gets infinitely more complicated on a smartphone or device. Pop-ups are considered a regular problem in most games and apps, but rooting takes care of it all immediately.

#4 – Rooting Android – Installing incompatible apps
Some of the best apps right now may not even be compatible with your phone. But Rooting Android gives you access to all the apps you can find. You even get the latest Android updates before your phone maker release its own, plus bonus features. You can run special applications that require root access, which are generally more power and feature-rich than other apps. These applications directly deal with Android system files, tweaking your Android operating system more extensively than other surface-level apps can. For instance, you could silently uninstall several applications after you download e Uninstall with root access.

#5 – Rooting Android – More display options and internal storage
Most devices come with three to four default skins to choose from, but rooting android phone lets you install new ROMs to fully customize and tweak your device skins for a truly unique display. Another big benefit is that rooting android frees up your device’s internal storage. People with low internal storage space can transfer whatever application they want to the SD card after they root their device. Some applications can be transferred by default, but an un-rooted device typically blocks you from doing this for all devices. Once rooted, you can force move an app with a symlink.

#6 – Rooting Android – Greater battery life and speed
While most of the above benefits have been largely cosmetic or convenience-based, this one is a more practical benefit. Rooting Android helps unlock the full potential of your phone. You can use apps like You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. to close useless applications automatically, effectively improving your device performance. But it does need root access to do that.

#7 – Rooting Android – Making full device backups
When you have an unrooted Android phone, you can only back up so many things, like your apps or some settings. Once rooted, however, you will find plenty of apps like You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. that will entirely back up your rooted device.

#8 – Rooting Android – Access to root files
When you are Rooting Android device, you have access to a number of files, sections and parts of your device that would otherwise not be available. This is what gives you so much access and freedom to do what you want with your device. You can use existing apps or, with a little knowledge, tweak the files and sections of your device yourself.

#9 – Rooting Android – CPU Clocking
Un-rooted devices typically do not have CPU clocking capabilities, which enable you to increase and/or decrease the CPU or processor speed of your device. Increasing processor clock speed helps you extract maximum performance, while lowering it helps extend batter life. No Frills CPU Control is one such device that does this with ease, and it is free from Google Play. You can find other such apps that quickly let you take control of your CPU performance without worrying about the technical terms or setting, and while ensuring that the device is working within safe limits.

#10 – Rooting Android – More tweaking
With a rooted Android device, you can configure and optimize your device for a customized feel and for better performance. Android can be tweaked to a significant extent, which is why it is so popular in the first place. Depending on what you want with your device, you can make several changes.

Easiest explanation.

If you do not need root access, or don't know even the term "root" / "root access", you do not need it.
