Heya first post,
I have three real questions about rooting.
I'm brand new to smart phones but I've had fun in the past with Linux distros and have modded some gaming systems in the past.
Basically, I don't mind only having 300 anytime minutes with VM; but I'm very curious about using google voice instead. It really just completely takes over the way you receive calls, or do you have to do anything differently?
Also, I love emulating older gaming systems (SNES, GBA and such.) Can I just open the emulator after storing them to a SD card or is it a little more complicated than that?
The last thing I really want to have on my phone is just the ability to store MP3's on a SD card and hook up my phone to my car via AUX just to play music on shuffle. I'm sure there are some really nice media players out there that I would probably need to root for, right?
Can I do all of this without rooting my phone?
The ability to tether seems really awesome as wel, but I don't think I'd really use it that often to be honest.
Was planning on picking up an LG Optimus V next payday. The rooting process seems pretty simple to do, but no sense in voiding my warranty if I don't really need to, yeah?
Thanks in advance, duders.
