With root alone is it possible to remove bloatware?

The stock experience sounds amazing the only thing for me is I've had my phone for a few months and have grown accustomed to the look and feel of some of the apps and some of the gestures (screenshot and calling). I also heard the Samsung camera app is much better than the stock one so I'm kind...

That's very helpful thank you. If you don't mind me asking though, are you rooted and what exactly did you do? I've been looking up checks on what to do to root a Canadian S3 and AT&T files would be enough.

Virgin Mobile in Canada, so it's the same as AT&T's model.

How though? I've never seen an option to turn off LTE, just data ..

I want to root my phone and flash Cyanogenmod 10 to get a newer version of Android running but want to know what will happen to my apps? I heard it is stock Android so will the phone, messaging, contacts and other stock apps change in appearance? Not the icons but the apps themselves. Also what...

When I got my phone there was a mix up where I only received a 3G (HSPA+) sim card and everything was fine. I would come home from school with a good 40-50% battery left in most cases. I swapped to an LTE sim after finding out I could get faster data and since then my battery life has been...

So how are nandroid backups made? And okay thank you! Is there a difference between I747U and I747M as far as rooting/roms go?

Not rooted yet but I'd really like to. Just not sure on somethings. Do nandroid and Superuser come with the root and could I uninstall them for apps like Titanium and the SuperSU from the market? Also is it better to do the long root or the one click one?

What's the difference between the I747U and I747M? I've got the I747M because I'm on a Canadian carrier but want to root my phones. Are AT&T roots and ROMS safe to use and can I reset my binary counter?

I see that theres roots for different carriers and everyone says to make sure its your model and carrier. I've noticed other US carriers actually have different model numbers. I'm from Canada and have a SGH-1747M S3, which is AT&T's version. Does this mean AT&T root and ROMS are safe for me?

Thanks a lot guys!

Canadian carrier, I checked earlier and its all American. Nothing to be found in the Canadian carrier section either.

I just like the idea of having more control over my phone and I'll be looking into flashing ROMS and improving functionality after rooting. Also how could it ruin my phone? I looked around in some other threads and I saw a Sprint root used on a T-Mobile phone, and I haven't seen too much...

I'm just wondering if anyone thinks its safe to root without researching too much. I don't plan on rooting then flashing ROMS and messing with settings right away. Just a learn as I go experience but I want the rooting part over and done with. I've jailbroken iPods before and I've got some basic...
