OK, so my GN is my first Android phone, and I'm thinking about Rooting it. Now I know what Rooting is, how to do it, etc. But I still have a few questions:
1) The main reason I want to Root my GN is to run Backtrack 5 on it. Has anyone here tried doing this yet? How do you like it?
2) I hear a lot about how people Root their phones in order to get custom ROMs. But I don't see anything wrong with the stock Android 4.0, so I really don't see a point to adding custom ROMs. Am I right to think this, or does anyone know of any custom ROMs that are truly amazing?
3) I've heard that if you want to still receive OTA updates, you'll need to unroot your phone. But I have a friend who Rooted his phone, but still automatically receives Google's updates with no problems. Anyone know how he did this?
