      I always try to root my new android phone. Don't like the pre-installed apps in the phone.

        I usually root my phones. My last phone was an xperia P and it was rooted.
        I'm with a LG G2 nowadays, but I didn't rooted it yet.

            I'm too afraid of modding my phone, I'm afraid to do damage, and, for the moment, I keep my HTC stock

                I used to back when I used Android.  I couldn't stand the fact that they don't allow you to  uninstall stock apps.  What the hell am I  supposed  to do with a NFL or a Blockbuster app!

                  Yes, I always do it. Not only to uninstall some default apps, but for being able to move new apps to the SD card.

                    Some factory apps are definitely junk !
                    But I have never done it, the security risk is not worth the risk for me :

                    • android has never been designed as a secure os ….
                    • only in the recent year the devs are starting to implement some countermeasures into the stacks
                    • there are plenty of vulnerability only exploitable over rooted devices :blind:
