OK so I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 Handset from an independent supplier. This came with Kitkat 4.4.2 installed. I tried and tried again to update it, and upon seeing some posts that say that if the android is a Rooted version then it wont receive these updates.
So downloaded Root Checker and low and behold my phone appeared as 'Successfully Rooted'. Perhaps the device was rooted by the supplier. As I understand it Rooting allows modifying and additional access to the device. Is this a good thing? Bad thing?
I'm really keen to update to Lollipop, so how would I go about this? Anyway to revert my phone to normal so it recieves updates? Should I?
Thanks, all help is appreciated in this confusing time for me
