Yes

It's seven times easier to infect a rooted Android than an unrooted Android.

okay but since when i started using andriod, over 3 years now. I have never gotten any virus and am sure it applys 99% of people using android. I rest my case.

For the third time, educate yourself.

i understand what u mean, but lets be realistic, can an andriod really get virus?

And in your village, viruses don't do that, right?

Anybody with rudiment computer knowledge knows viruses are a single type of malware

yes virus does some of dat. But pls dont interchange both, malware is another world from virus, i mean real virus dat can shut down yr decive, not some info stealing app

You're also ignorant of the fact that viruses are [url=http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2379663,00.asp]a single type of malware[/url], wow!

A malware is different from a virus. Malwares are softwares used to disrupt computer operation, gather sensitive information, or gain access to private computer systems.

Thats why any andriod app that does the above function is dectected as a malware by antivirus

Rooted or not rooted info can always b hacked if handled by the wrong person and wrong apps. Bros take am say we all no dey safe from cyber crime. But one can be careful though, jst as u said restrict access to what u know. Simple.

when the phone is not rooted u cant get any vital info. But when its rooted, damn all yr passwords nd info can be viewed by a smart guy.

Biggest lie ever. Android phones do get viruses.



It also removes your manufacturer's/seller's warranty and protection against viruses.

Na wa o. Why do u have to reply with such a harsh comment? He said he handled someone's rooted phone himself and retrieved the person's password. That is a personal account and I don't see how it relates to any published article undecided

Being a security enthusiast, I'm inclined to believe that it is very possible. How did you do it?

all your information are stored in the root folder and can be accessed easliy. Dont grant permission to all apps

Phones / Exposed:The Real Disadvantage Of Rooting Yr Phone by victorix(m): 9:27am On Nov 29, 2014
What am about to share many of you dont know. This is the real disadvantage of rooting your andriod phone.

From my experience of using android phones the only disadvantage of rooting i have observed is that, Rooting removes the protection and security of an andriod phone. When i say ''protection'' i dont mean, protection against virus, becus andriod phone dont contact virus.

When i say it removes the protection, i mean, yr privacy protection.
Last week i was using a friend's rooted android phone, so i Decided to do some experiment and i went into the root section of the phone. I did some things and like magic i got the password of his yahoo mail, gmail and Facebook account. Since then i knew android phones has no security.

If i hold any rooted phone, i can get the password of the person's Email, the person's conversation ( like 2go, facebook conversation) and even the person password to all social network.

If you use some banking apps like diamond bank app on a rooted phone, its a big risk to you, becus a tech expert can easliy get yr bank infomation and and stuffs like dat.

So rooting yr phone depends on what you use the phone for, if u jst wanna customise yr phone, play hd games, delete unwanted sys apps and minimise yr data usage, u can root yr phone but BeWare Of Hackers....

No Airtel plan for now, but alternatively you can try out their BIS plan, its #1500 and comes with 2GB data, simply dial *440*16# and make sure the APN of your device is configured to "internet.ng.airtel.com". Also, I can unlock some modems with you just giving me the IMEI number except Huawei E303

sir pls re u serious with this airtel bb plan? Hope its really 2gb for 1500 and does it work for andriod?

And am also willing to test dis yr mtn data offer, hope its ligit. Thanks
