What does it do?
Can you explain EXACTLY what this does? I may try this once I get my New MicroSD (got sick of Flashing back-and-forth between Nookie Froyo and Honeycomb) but I want to know EXACTLY what it does first before trying.

Wait...... remove root? Huh?

Until the SuperUser.apk works with the su binary (no Allow / Deny popup right now), having root in the system means that any app can do whatever it wants without your knowledge / permission. If you're paranoid, being able to remove root (for now) is a good thing. I removed root myself for peace of mind.

You could try downloading the one-click lag fix from the market. It has a built in un-root.

Search "lagfix" in the market..... the author is "RyanZA"
i dont have app market access is there another way to get the lag fix for unrooting?
just download the oneclickroot file from the vibrant "Bible" it has an unroot option.
Just amazed at how many people dont know about it.
I also had this issue when I had gotten froyo. The only thing that worked for me was the one click root from TGA_gunnman's thread.

Installing apps then rooting

I have been installing a few apps and now im questioning if I am going to have to install these apps again after I root this phone? Those of you that have rooted your phone, have you have to install your apps again?
Thanks!
No.
From your question it would appear you are new to rooting. It does not mess with the installed apps; it provides more access to the OS so you can do more.

Rooting will only give root access, but changing the kernel will force you to format your phone?

I already install the superuser app, do i need to configure something else ?
Superuser will prompt you when it's needs root access for something (i.e. using a application requiring root) and you will have the option to allow or deny this access. You shouldn't need to configure the application itself unless you just want to change some basic settings. Hope it helps!

Give Titanium Backup a try. It needs root and can backup your apps+data. A must have tool.

[Q] Install AOSP SMS app without root?

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to install the AOSP SMS app without root? The touchwiz SMS app is annoying me and I'm not quite ready to start flashing new roms.

Don't believe so, since you'll need to access /system on the phone, and you need a root browser [with root permissions] to go there/ You can do the simple rooting process [literally takes less than 2 minutes] have root, stock rom with root access, then install the apk.

At the risk of being flamed, which process exactly allows root for under 2 minutes? Through Odin?
Is there a fix yet for the counter?

Don't really worried about the counter, if you rally so paranoid about it, ask how many people been refused for insurance or service from the counter, I rooted all my phones and by law they have to help you with the device, of course don't boot loop your phone by flashing something that doesn't belong to your s3(another carrier or model) I and you should be good, I have rooted over 10 devices (own devices) and had service in 4 and they never said anything, I even Sent my old evo rooted to asurion and I don't get charged for the new one they sent me

[Q] Bootanimation help! (NO Root)

I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus and I want to change the boring boot animation to a custom one however I'm not rooted and I found out about the adb command method but it's not working with me i do: adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local in command promp and everything goes well even when I test it: adb shell bootanimation it works but when it comes to actually rebooting it just brings up the stock boot animation...
So can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
You need root to change bootanimation dude....

Well, I don't think you're right because I came across tons of websites that said I can...
And rooting isn't an easy option for me because I can't afford to possibly brick my phone or affect it negatively!
So any more options?

Then how come you haven't changed it already? Root is required to make most system changes so I don't know what sites you're viewing that state otherwise?

Do you even know what adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local is? You are putting the bootanimation.zip file into the /data directory which cannot be written to without root.
Also, this is xda. If anything, you are on CNN.com and the "other websites" are tabloid sites. Trust the advice you find here

Tons of sites including this one!
I think you should try pushing to system/media OP.
root access is generally irrelevant, the file just needs to be there and have the right name.
If you install the root right, e.g. From xda-developers (usually there are guides how to install) you nearly can't brick it. It's very hard to make a full brick

So what i've red before is, that you must have installed root because u need access to the bootanimation files
