I have tried many of the different custom roms, and the wireless tether is the primary reason I rooted mine. Right now I run the MIUI custom rom, it looks sort of iphone’ish but everything is very polished, fast and the battery lasts me way longer. I was able to scrap the nascar, nfl and built in sprint items . (Most of the custom roms rip it out) Cyanogen is one of the more popular custom roms out there, but im not a huge fan. I did load cm7-grx which is a custom version of customized cyanogen heh, its running gingerbread which is what the new Google Nexus runs so I get the sip dialing and new apps .. Evo’s are probably the easiest to root, and seems to be a ton of custom roms for them and I think the incredible has a lot too.

Verizon hasn’t come out with 2.2 for the galaxy S yet. I rooted my S but VZ sent an update which removed the root, and sent it into a loop.

I rooted it just to have “root” access but then found some apps that will allow me to tether my phone as a wi-fi hotspot. I had often loaded different roms and such but that got old real quick. I can’t run updates on my phone because of my rooted access but I’m ok with that. I haven’t tinkered with my phone for over a year now and still on OS 2.1. The only real benefit of rooting for me is the wi-fi tethering, Hope this helps. -Jimmy From: Erik Goldoff [mailto:egold...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2011 12:40 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: OT : Rooting Android phones Lately I’ve been seeing a number of articles and videos on rooting Android phones, including the HTC EVO that I use. Besides the obvious ‘gaining root access’, has anyone done this that can list some of the benefits from rooting your phone ? (I’m thinking maybe I could finally uninstall that Nascar app that was bundled by Sprint ) Thanks in advance Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security ' Security is an ongoing process, not a one time event !
