It's technically my phone, I've paid for it, works just subsidized it with the contract they've taken on for me. Ditched the stock SenseUI pretty much straight away, it pissed me off something chronic. Happy to be running CM9, it's *way* nicer!! What is CM9? CM9 = CyanogenMod 9 (Ice Cream Sandwich) It's a version of Android based on the AOSP (Android Open Source Project) that's designed to be a fast, "close to standard", yet feature-rich Android. It doesn't have a ton of different apps bundled, but instead has OS-level customizations that more than make up for it. |

Means you have the ability to do things as the root (Administrator in Linux) user. Otherwise your phone runs everything as a regular unprivileged user. Having a rooted phone allows you to do things like customize thetypes of notifications you receive, for example modify the color of the notification LED, and other things like that :) |
