Hello,
The other day I thought I had all of my preliminary questions and concerns answered about rooting my Gs3, based on weeks of reading through threads, watching videos, the whole nine ... until I came across the link above.
This stopped me cold in my tracks for days, now after doing more looking and reading and rereading related items on this, I want to just plainly ask here in this forum, if I may.
Here's my situ:
I have GW installed on the phone, but I have only opened it a few times. I have never completed the set up on it.
Ever since I saw the thread above, I've been avoiding buying anything from the Play store ( haven't bought anything from the PS since I bought the phone) because it says by clicking buy, you accept the terms of GW.
My question is... since I haven't set up GW, nor purchased anything from the PS, if I root...( just root and keep the stock ROM) will the secure element on my phone be broken?
Is this still a general issue for root users? Also, that thread was for the HTC EVO, does make any kind of difference here?
Any answers, tips, recommendations, warnings, etc. are greatly appreciated.
