Hey guys. I've got a G3, came from a GNex that I never rooted out of fear. As such, I never really looked into the advantages of rooting. Can you guys give me the cliffsnotes version of the benefit of rooting? (i.e. can I do more things with it, make it faster, etc...)
Obviously, I know if I screw it up I can brick the phone and that is why I can really hesitant to do it, but if there is reason enough to do it, I'm willing to take the plunge.
Also, not totally related, I'm thinking of rooting the GNex now that I don't NEED it anymore. If I brick it, I won't feel as bad. Might that be a good way to go - test my rooting skills on the Gnex then do it on the G3 once I'm more confident?
TIA for any help/advice/suggestions.
