The Devil
Guys, I want to root my phone so that I could install some apps that require root.
I headed to XDA-developers forum, but when I saw the procedure, my heart sank. I need to unlock the bootloader and doing this will WIPE MY ENTIRE PHONE!!!!!!?? The last time I rooted any Android was my LG P500, and the rooting process was one-click affair, no data loss, no risk. But what the hell is this? I have installed dozens of apps and customized my phone. What will happen to those? How do I backup? How do I recover? I have no plans of installing custom ROM. Man, this sucks.
