I've a HTC desire, updated to Android 2.2 recently. I am very concerned to know, if I should "ROOT", in order to:
a) Have "FROYO" ?! (is same as And. 2.2 ?)
b) Access to market.place (as I don't, right now !)
c) Could "Move to SD" my App.'s ? (as I see it gray, in application manager)
In other words, I searched and find many discussions about rooting, and how rooting, but still really don't know if I should better do so, or not.
Please advice clearly, as I want to know realt meaning of rooting as well.
Thanks a lot in advance,
