Can you Root the Optimus Pro G Without A Computer? If not, why?
are there any play store apps or third party apps that will Root your Optimus Pro G? if not, why not? the developer whom made that a app like that would be rich. Lol.

No. U must need a computer to root the phone. By rooting it means that u gain privileges or access to the root system. Google your queries to get answers. there is lot of websites that explain what is "root in a linux system".
And our devs work hard to find a way to root the device and they do it out of passion and for free! they make the process simple and u should thank them for all their hard work, better u could offer a small donation.

You can also use SuperSU in place of the superuser app and it will do the same thing. (Hides root/temp unroot)
If you think about it, there is usually a reason that an App would specify unrooted only. Rooted basically equals nowhere as secure as nonrooted. So not too surprising a banking app is paranoid about security.

Go into the supersu settings. Uncheck enable super users. Then the app will work. Renable it when you need root

If this made sense why wouldn't they stop me from using a bank site from my home PC where I also have root privileges.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Yeah this makes about as much sense as Hulu only letting certain shows on its apps and forcing you to go to the web for the full catalog.
Even the cheap $350 laptops have HDMI out now, so you can just plug in your laptop and bam, there you go. I have one that the screen went out so it's just constantly plugged into HDMI so I can browse from my TV.
But yeah, back to the original point, your bank is retarded. Not allowing a rooted phone to use it makes no difference in overall security.
Well thanks guys I figured how it all works and yes my bank is retarded but hell they all are I hate banks

Sorry for the noobish question but what are the actual advantages of rooting? What can i do with root on my phone that i can't do without? I don't specifically mean on the play but on other android devices also. I have only rooted and flashed Cyanogenmod 7 on an orange san francisco/ ZTE blade and that was with a step by step guide so don't know much about it. I know i can overclock and remove adds but other than that, what can rooting offer?
Thanks for any help. It's much appreciated

Administrative super user abilities, besides certain apps having the ability to delete system apps and such It allows you to use an app called Barnacle tether, it turns your play into a wifi hot spot.
But to answer your question as simple as possible....It allows you to install a different "genera" of apps if you will.
I can already turn my play into a WiFi hotspot?
Does rooting offer big advantages? Becuase there's no point of me rooting and then having no idea what to do after i'm rooted (i.e the advantages and which apps to get)

Ugh... rooting is probably the bread and butter of Android.. with it you can edit system apps to apply certain tweaks; you can freeze or uninstall system apps that are hogging CPU usage cycles, RAM usage, and precious battery life; install and use 'special' apps that only function when rooted (i.e. FaceNiff, WiFi Kill, etc.),; BACKUP game progress/settings and app settings; really, there a bunch of uses of rooting your phone.
PS, WiFi tether is NATIVE to Xperia PLAY.
You learn by asking, so what do you mean by native to the xperia play? Also, i've read about flashing ROMs and such and read about backing everything using ROM manager or titanium backup so you can quickly and easily resotre everything if you don't like the ROM. How can you do this? If i were to flash a custom ROM but didn't like it, how would i restore my phone exactly as it is now, on stock 2.3 gingerbread with all the apps and data? Also, is there a way i can see all the apps that work only with root so i can see what they do?

As far as I know, CWM doesn't work with our phones. CWM is a recovery which allows us to backup a "frozen" state of our phone so we can restore it back in case we screw it up (i.e. bad custom ROM flash that bricks the phone).
I tried ROM Manager hours ago just to make a Nandroid backup, but the app said it can't install ClockWorkMod because our phone is not supported yet. So, as far as I know about Nandroid backups, I can't help you much. But there are other CWM-based recoveries that are probably compatible with R800i, but I haven't tried them yet.
As for Titanium Backup, it allows you to freeze/defrost/backup system and user apps, among other awesome features, though, this is the only reason I bought TB Pro version. It's other functions range from cleaning the Dalvik cache, integrating updates to system apps, converting system apps to user apps and vice versa, and many others.
As for seeing which apps work with root, that I don't know. Developers of apps that use root access usually state on their Google Play pages that they use root, though. Some other apps also have tags on their description that go as far as saying "THIS IS A ROOT APP ONLY."
EDIT: Turning your Xperia PLAY into a hotspot is easily set up within the settings.
Thanks for the help. Still unsure whether to root. I've lasted this long without it but i do need more internal storage. This can be done with root, no?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Oh yes! Definitely!
Thanks. If you understand, i want all the advantages of rooting and don't want to miss out on anything! Which is why i wanted to know other benefits.

Go ahead and root with superoneclick. You got nothing to loose. Tho if I were you I'd you Flashtool to revert back to 2.3.3 (if you're not already on it) THEN use superoneclick.
Flashtool? why revert back to 2.3.3? Also, where can i install superoneclick?

(This may only apply to Verizon users) But 2.3.4 for us Verizon customers broke: Google Talk, Push notifications and connection to google services. (r800x)
Anyway if this isn't you download it here: http://shortfuse.org/?page_id=2
Also go to settings > applications > [x] allow unknown sources > development > [x] USB debugging.

Flash tool is the easiest way to flash ftf files and kernels for Xperia phones. Pick it up in my signature if you want. The drivers are included in flash tool of you need them
Edit: only flash non stock based kernels if your boot loader is unlocked.

ftf files are stock roms. Like Verizon 2.3.3 ftf for example.
Custom kernels allow you to flash custom roms. But in your situation if you just want root use superoneclick.

Allow you to flash custom kernels and roms. The Xperia Play isn't getting ICS, but with an unlocked bootloader you can get ICS on your phone. They're working on Jellybean as we speak.
Just ordered a Note 10.1 2014E on amazon. I went for for the 32GB, Wifi only, Black model.
Now I'm thinking: should I root it?
I'm not interested in custom ROMs, so my main reason for rooting would be to remove all those useless preinstalled apps by samsung and google.
Actually I un-rooted my tablet due to the fact that root was no longer necessary. Now that I'm in KitKat I have access to just about all the features and apps of the PRO models. Plus you can disable most of the apps you don't want via the application manager. All 'n all I don't really see a need to root this tablet unless you have specific apps that you must have that require root access.

I didn't root my tablet, but now that I'm in KitKat I am forced to root it. Google has limited write access to the external SD card, and my media sync tools (that don't need root themselves) require root to undo the 'bug' that Google planted. I guess I could unroot after I fix the tablet, but why bother?

Is there a method to root where it won't trip KNOX?, how easy is this for a beginner?.
I don't want to void my warranty but kk and the external sd issue is making me either sell it, or root it.
No, there is no way to root without tripping Knox.
How many devices in your life have you returned for warranty repair?

Exactly! I waited to root so the kitkat update would be flawless. Now that I'm rooted, I wish I would have done it earlier.. titanium backup, mw apps manager, and greenify and others make rooting well worth it. This was a great tablet before but now it's spectacular.

We have to ask a dev to do this, it is not as simple as just replacing .apk
I would do it myself but i have no experience in that lol
Yh I think they need to do it, if they can port different roms on to it and even Change operating systems on some devices then surely they can port a very much the same app that already exists in the g pad.

Have you confirmed that the app is broken by root? The RBS Android app stopped working when I installed it on my G3 (it worked on my rooted HTC One X+). RBS confirmed that the app is broken on some devices, rooted or not.

This is the best answer I have seen. Barclays, in general, has a stick up their collective asses regarding hacked phones. Switch to a bank that doesn't care what you do with your phone.
