This is a mostly a "jargon" question.
Yes, I've been reading this forum, but still struggling with understanding basics.
Rooting refers to getting access like getting "administrative" access in windows, yes?
If you are rooted, do you have to install a ROM? And I assume a ROM is a combo of a theme and additonal functionality?
How many ways of rooting are there? How does one determine which root technique to use?
If I want to do the following, can someone give me the list of items, in order of doing them, that I need to accomplish the following:
Want to be able to remove from the phone bloatware
Want to be able to use widgets from apps I download
Want to be able to install wallpapers that I choose, and use a third party launcher.
TIA
