So a friend told me that he can root phones and said that he has rooted his and claimed that its much lighter now and "fast". I checked his phone and he also changed his launcher. However i didn't noticed any noticeable improvement in my usage then.
But since i have a crappy android phone and wanted to remove the bloatwares i agreed when he suggested that i root mine.
I don't know how he did it but I think that he used Framaroot and SuperUser. And with an app called System App Safe Remover i was able to remove all unwanted apps. He said that it needed to be rooted to be able to use that uninstalling app.
Now after all these were done i notice:
1. It freed up some RAM memory. Earlier i used to have just around 200MB free. After root i had 300-400MB.
2. Stock launcher has disappeared. New one sucks! Instead of swiping horizontally its now done vertically. Basicaly it takes more time.
3. My Torchlight app has disappeared! Its a very useful app which i use it every night and I need it. Now i have to unnecessarily open the camera, change it to video mode and turn on the Flash.
4. I also noticed that the games are lagging regularly now. It didn't lag as much before it was rooted. The phone gets slowed even when playing my card game. And sometimes the touch won't even work (a result of which i end up dying a lot of times in Zombie Tsunami
).
And now even the RAM usage is back to its old self ie. 200MB-300MB free. :/
btw i've also installed Google keyboard, except for the "spacebar" key which is too small and i end up touching the "/" a hell lot of times its great. Is there any way to increase the size of the spacebar key?
But alas one important thing which i didn't do (i forgot to do it since i was in a hurry): backup the stock softwares before the root!
I want to get everything back to its previous condition except the bloatwares (to be permanently removed). Will this be possible?
Phone is a crappy Panasonic P11 and running v4.1.2.
