you run the risk of bricking the phone,plus it voids you warranty lol
Once the phone is rooted the warranty is void anyhow. I know how to reset the phone to factory, but if it's bricked, trust me I will run it over like 5 times to ensure there's no proof it was rooted so I can do an insurance claim. :lol:

Nice! I know w/ Verizon they track the phone so I can't really say it was stolen b/c of the GPS. I guess I could remove the battery so they can't remote, but I thought there was still a signal they could trace somehow? Dunno.

I should totally do that. My phone is still pricey hahaha

It's very fast, but I've gotten so pampered w/ the 4G LTE and processor on this thing that I want it faster. For example, I text so quickly that my phone can't keep up.

The battery life, or lack there of, is HORRIBLE too. I use my phone so much that I charge it 2-3 times a day. I've thought about the extender for it, but it's not worth the money. From what my friends say w/ the same rooted phone, they can get 1-2 days w/o charging with their root.

Samsung Infuse 4g, I HATE it compared to my iPhone 3Gs. I had the iPhone jailbroken, and of course I rooted the Infuse. Still stuck on Froyo because Samsung sucks balls. They released GINGERBREAD finally a couple weeks ago, and then pulled it because it doesn't work right and HDMI port becomes useless. I don't know much about roms though, so that I can look into.

... This Samsung freezes once a day, randomly reboots, and doesn't have Scramble with Friends yet like iOS does :lol:

OH, and to really root this Infuse, I had to go through all this bulls*** of replacing the SU binary and a bunch of other crap... lame

I know what all a root can do for a phone, I'm just lost on the gibberish. When my friends explain it I just go dumb. A friend is supposed to walk me through it but I'm a bit nervous.

I rooted my Infuse 4G. Haven't really done much with it though, except for installing a terminal emulator so I can use nerdy Unix commands haha

I'm just glad that there's a stock one people can build off of. mostly because i can't live without wifi calling.
