Hello,
ReplyDeleteI am considering the purchase of this smartphone.
What are the positive and negative points of this root ?
Tnx for you answers.
rooting mean you have complete control over your phone that can't be done on a non rooted phone such as :
ReplyDelete- have access to alter any system files, change boot images, delete stock apps
- backup / restore the whole system
- save space on internal storage
- run special apps that required root access
- etc
but rooting your phone might void factory or service provider warranty in many cases.
Bonjour et merci d'avance ;) je ne comprend pas cet manipulation - Sélectionnez Mise à jour de carte SD (Utilisez le bouton de volume et le bouton Accueil pour choisir le menu)- ? merci encore
ReplyDeleteYou need to enter recovery mode as described above and then there will be "Update from SD Card" menu in the recovery mode, use Volume button to navigate to that option, then use Home button to select it ;)
