The Point - OneClickRoot (Paying)

The point of my reply was this. If you don't want to take the chance and for a little more they offer full phone replacement. OneClickRoot is worth the money. By the times you spend hours installing full adb, device drivers, downloading tools, fixing any issues like wrong adb version, wrong drivers...etc then praying you don't make one mistake and brick your device. On top of that the time and frustration involved? Also, you can't install any updates, and you have to disable this in multiple places. Not just the setting that says enable disable updates. Like I said before I've done this numerous times (through other people's exploit's), the recowvery wasn't working as it was posted for me. I even went in as SU then Elevated SU then SuperSU. I got nowhere. I disabled FRP and did the OEM Unlock myself easily.

In My Opinion, OneClickRoot is worth the money if you don't want the hassle or waste the time. I am not a programmer, certainly not a master programmer, but I understand the exploits others find. Some people just blindly copy and paste. This might works sometimes, but other times it doesn't and you have to understand the exploit to fix the issue. I spent 5 years as an IT administrator for an entire network of one of Eli Lilly Pharmaceuticals subsidiaries. A multi-billion dollar drug company. I am not a genius but I do have some knowledge.

OneClickRoot was so simple and I learned how they did it. I'm sure more goes on behind the scenes through their program...etc. Also, if you have an issue an screw it up they fix it of if you pay another $20 they replace the phone completely and buy a new one.

How can you justify even attempting to root these things? I'm just saying if your comfortable with copy and paste and pray then go for it. If you don't understand the exploit of what it is doing then I would pay $35 plus another $20 for phone replacement and the full guarantee to OneClickRoot. Of course, this is my opinion. It depends on your knowledge and willingness to try and root your phone. So to answer a previous reply yes I did pat the $35 plus I chose to pay $20 for free phone replacement and a full guarantee to fix it for any reason. That's about an hours worth of pay to me. The answer is yes it is worth that much money just to not have to deal with it. I have a Wife and Kid. Why am I wasting weeks fixing this locked phone which shouldn't be locked? I learned a few lessons though. If possible I will never buy anything locked in any way ever again and I am done wasting my time doing something someone else can do for peanuts and I have peace of mind.

With the exception of the Nexus series and I haven't owned one in a while but the last pure android phone I owned was the easiest one to unlock like all of them should be. I do see what right these companies have to tell us we can't unlock our phones. We own them. Hopefully these "Right to Fix" laws get passed and people get behind them. If you don't know what that is find out and sign the petitions.

UPDATE: I Just did a FULL NANDROID of EVERYTHING. I hooked up a large USB drive and made it done. Also have all the original files. It really shouldn't be this difficult. We should have the "Right to Fix" and we should have control over something we own not locked by a manufacturer.
