Why should I root my phone?
The advantages of rooting.
Gaining root access on Android is akin to running Windows as an administrator.
With root you can run an app like Titanium Backup to delete or permanently hide the app.
Titanium can also be used to manually back up all the data for an app or game so you can restore it to another phone.
Is it illegal to root your phone?
Many Android phone makers legally allow you to root your phone, e.g., Google Nexus. Other manufacturers, like Apple, don’t allow jailbreaking. In the USA, under the DCMA, it’s legal to root your smartphone. However, rooting a tablet is illegal.
