Someone school me on this one. I've been looking up info on possibly rooting my droid for a few days and seemingly every site I find says that it unlocks admin capabilities and allows for greater customization but they never say exactly what that entails. Could someone clarify a few things?
1. I read that some apps are only available to rooted phones: is there anywhere I could find a list of these?
2. Would rooting my phone allow me to get paid apps from the app store for free? My friend just jailbroke his iphone (yes, I know its different) and that has me jealous. I'm not sure if this forum has a policy against this stuff so a yes or no answer would be all I need.
3. What are the interface changes I could apparently make?
and finally
4. Are the overall benefits of rooting even that significant, or would the process only result in a few negligible gains?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
