I have been told by an app developer that in order to get the app to run as I want it to, I need to root the device and move some files into a different folder. I have searched this forum (and others) but didn't find exactly what I needed.
I'm not waht you would call a "techie" but I am a tinkerer. Other than making this app do what I want, I'm not sure I would reap any other benefits from the root process, and I don't know what the possible downside(s) are to owning a rooted device. So my thinking is: Root the device, move the files, and then re/un-root it immediately after.
That being said, There are some changes I wouldn't mind seeing; removing unused bloat being number one on the list.
All this being said, any recommendations out there? Any quick ways to root, do my thing, and unroot? Or should I just leave it rooted so I can make changes as I see fit? And, what if any downside is there?
Thanks for helping an old noob (I hope that's how you spell "noob", I hear my boys say it but haven't seen it written out before!)
