The best reason yet to root your phone: to remove Carrier IQ.
The best reason yet to root your phone: to remove Carrier IQ.
Not only do I have mine rooted, but I refuse to use OTA software. I have tried a few different ROMs and almost all of them are better than the OTA one. I haven't tried the stock ROM for long, but even that is better than OTA because it doesn't have all the useless shit the carrier/manufacturer think you need.
