Leave rooted or unroot?

[OcalaFlGuy]

Not quite the same as the usual "should I root" question.

So I will likely be getting a Motion as soon as a certain member here gets his S3.

Currently his Motion is rooted.

Up til now, I have shied away from rooting my DX because frankly I wouldn't know what I was doing and I haven't really seen any need to. I hear LOTS of voices here saying that root on the Motion really isn't needed with it's still locked down bootloader.

Hence my question,

If you were me would you ask him to leave it rooted or take it back to stock And Why?

I have no idea what he's done to it since rooted, is there anything in particular I should ask about that?

Thanks in advance,

Bruce in Ocala, FL

FWIW it's ultimately up top you. when I passed my admire on I reset to factory, unrooted and updated.

If it's rooted...leave it. You can do more with a rooted phone, you are on the forum take the opportunity to learn who, what, why and when.

yeah i'd say leave it. rooting doesnt hurt your phone unless you start doing things you're not supposed to.

i would suggest installing an ad blocker. adaway is a good one.

This phone is great without it being rooted but if its already that way i guess leave it.
