A lot of Android phones comes with limitations. These limitations prevent users from installing new Applications or upgrade to most current Android version. In order to get the complete privileged control, you have to root your Android Phone.

[size=15pt]Here are some reasons to Root Android Phone.[/size]

1. Get rid of Bloatware

Bloatware is pre-installed applications that come with the phone. Although a few of these Apps are important, you might find some which is of no use and needlessly consume precious memory. To get rid of these Apps, you have to root to eliminate Bloatware.

2. Extend battery life

By rooting your Android phone, you can access functions which enable users to alter the settings, change the power that goes to CPU and minimize it to save battery life.

3. Customize your phone

A non-rooted phone has limitations and bring minimal options when it comes to altering wallpaper, ringtones, keyboard sounds and so on. As soon as you root your Android device, there is no limitation to the modifications that can be done on your phone.

4. Install new Applications

By rooting your Android device, you are permitted to install new Applications against limitations to installing specific apps on a non-rooted phone.

5. Overclock

Much like a PC can be overclocked, you can overclock your mobile phone. By default, phone manufacturers do not encourage overclocking to prevent users from burning down their own gadget. If you are a techie who likes to overclock your mobile phone, you have to root your smart device.

6. Change the phone using a customized ROM

A rooted phone enables flashing the ROM. This enables installing the current Android version as well as enhance performance of the device. This is one of the primary reasons users opted to root their mobile phone.


7. Increase Android memory

By getting rid of unwanted Apps and by setting up performance enhancing Apps, you can maximize valuable memory needed for the smooth performance of your phone. You can even utilize Apps like MiniTool Partition to make Android use the external disk space as internal space which enables better performance as well as enables installing more Apps.

8. Block Ads
The downside of non-rooted phone is that the phone is personalized for their brand. This implies you will see wallpapers, apps, games which reveals the trademark name or its affiliate's brand all over. Rooting your smart device enable installing Apps that allow blocking these advertisements as well as eliminate Apps that show ads.

Yes, sometimes network providers select some phone type to give free data, if you know the particular phone they are doing the promo, you can get the IMEI and change yours to be eligible

Rooting helps change IMEI easily, see procedure
