I am a Tasker enthusiast and when I can automate something simple on my phone I like to. I set a simple task to turn off WiFi when my home network is not detected so my phone doesn't scan and report my location to businesses. However, this functionality is now nonexistent and the developer has to ask people not to one-star their app because it doesn't work. My phone is my phone and killing my ability to use it as such for whatever security theater Google is playing at is why I root my device. Anyone else still rooting for similar reasons?
you can root Samsung really easily tho?
you lose some features if you decide ti go back tho
If it's a modern US Samsung model originally provided by a carrier, you can't. A long time ago, people used to find/use security exploits for Samsung phones, but I think they just don't care much anymore since you can buy international versions or other bootloader unlockable phones.
i mean unless your phone is locked to a carrier (which is pretty rare???) there's nothing stopping you?
