Really, I dont want to do this again, this conversation.

Most stupid people don't realize they are stupid, they assume they are smart. (We are all stupid in some regards).

I think I could endanger a user from root, pretty sure I can either screw the phone up, or possibly catch it on fire. If it had a sim in it, and was on the network I am certain I could make them regret ever rooting their device.

Here is a question, how many of you understand how these unlocks/exploits work?

I sometimes leave messages hidden in mine, and have only had ONE person reply to the hidden message, out of 100,000s of runs. People don't even know what they are running to gain root, let alone any idea what these "rom devs" do.

Open source is the answer right? Everyone can read the code, and everyone does! Thats why no backdoors or vulns have ever been in open source projects. Every open source project gets a line by line audit by a team of security professionals.</sarcasm>

I'll join back in when someone shows me a custom rom/open device that has the same or better security precautions taken by leading ODMs. Until then, it is generally just as easy or (generally) easier to abuse and exploit one of these custom roms floating around.

[Security Discussion] E:V:A:
Actually, I'm glad you did. Because after having woken up with a fresh mind, you have managed to convince me and change standpoint on this topic, and that is not an easy thing to do. Today, I think the "average" (~99.99%) user should not have access to a rooted/ROM'ed phones, but that the remainder who really whish/need to, should have an opportunity to do so. (As I think that was the case for the HTC One X, some time ago.) However, I leave this conversation with the reservation that ODM's should be scrutinized and legally controlled against putting too much and intrusive bloat on their phones. (Whats going on with that Xiaomi case anyway? )
[Security Discussion] He3556:
well in the end, i am afraid it does not make this big difference if your phone is rooted or not when it comes to the global view of our data security.

[General Questions and Answers] MSmithXDA:
Hey folks,

Does anyone know for certain (not speculation) how Verizon treats phones that have been rooted when you go to trade them in on the Edge program? Will a phone that's been rooted in the past be denied for Edge trade-in?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] MSmithXDA:
So I called Verizon. They said that I would need to remove root in order to trade it in or "Edge-Up". I've read recently though that even if you unroot your phone, carriers can now detect the fact that at one point time it was rooted. Is this true?
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
most phones can be returned to stock without a trace of root as long as the stock files are available.

check your phones specific forum for return to stock guides and methods to remove root indicators if that applies.

calling verizon and asking about root really was not wise. they usually make notes on your account when you call for future reference.

you may not have an issue later from calling them, but you defiantly stirred the hornets nest, so it is possible you will.

---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 PM ----------

btw,

it doesnt matter what plan you are on, they dont allow rooting period.

as far as they are concerned, "when they find out it is rooted", your warranty is void, returns are not accepted, and trade ups are denied.
[General Questions and Answers] MSmithXDA:
Well I didn't tell them it was me :silly: I pretended to be a new customer interested in service and just had these hypothetical questions. But they didn't have my account # or anything to trace it back to me. Thanks for the info though!
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
the reason root remained after you did a factory reset is, factory reset does nothing more than wipe the data partition. root code is not inserted there, so it will remain in tact with the exception of the su app unless it is installed in system/apps..

the fact that you had bloatware return after a reset is odd, i have never heard this happen before. resetting does not modify, restore, or change the system partition in any way.

as for them finding the root, i agree it is unlikely, but it can and has happened. also, it doesn't have to happen right away. there have been several reports of charges for replacement phones applied to your bill, from modifications found after the return.

as for them caring if you leave for another carrier, they don't, plain and simple. this has been shown countless times over the years. many people leave them every day, and they don't do the slightest thing to try and stop them.

i seriously doubt they will let you strong arm them by threatening to leave after they find out you returned a modified phone.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] verny94:
Formated means wipe data/factory reset?

Do you use any task killers, clean masters, antivirs etc??
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Never had a problem on my Note 3. Have had this problem many times on my original Note and Galaxy S however.

You could try PurePerformancexX or try a completely fresh stock ROM flashed using ODIN and your choice of ROM from Sam Mobile.

Or simply use a different custom ROM flashed from your custom recovery. Making sure to do a complete wipe before hand (or during installation with Aroma Installer).

What ROM are you using?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sa-ra:
Yes i do wipe data /factory reset ..
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sa-ra:
I am on stuck 4.4.2
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Well I'm currently using MultiX with stock kernel, virtually nothing selected except for things like Dropbox and other necessities that I use. It's as light as you want it to be. Give it a shot.

Also if it's games that are lagging you can try using custom Kernels.

One that springs to mind is Aurora which has a GPU overclock.

All controllable using Synapse which installs at the same time Aurora is.

Good luck
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sa-ra:
This is a very hard solution
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Installing a kernel is hard?

It takes 60 seconds, you don't need to change Synapse settings I was just saying you can.

They're two different suggestions. Install the ROM if you can be bothered or install the kernel for an easier/quicker attempt at raising performance.

ROM's don't usually change performance much anyway if you have a non-bloated ROM already installed.

But yeah in this order: Try the kernel, or try the ROM, or try the PurePerformancesX thing as a last ditched effort.

It needs to have Windows 8 (not RT or professional, I can't remember how the third one called).

I don't have budget limit, but it should be matter of budget and performance, which means, I rather hear options of tablets, their price and performance, I'll decide what's best for my workplace.

The best tablet for me will be one with medium budget and maximum performance.

They only way I have found to copy mpegs or avi's to the mem card is to skip activesync altogether and use the adapter for my minisd card to plug into my laptop directly ( I have an sd port).
