How to Root Your Samsung Galaxy S3... and Why? Top 3 Root-Required Apps

Rooting your Samsung Galaxy S3 has become quite the straight-forward process thanks the mskip over at XDA-Developers. Check out the guide HERE.

But WHY root your brand new phone? The number one reason is that you will gain the ability to use many valuable apps and you will gain full access to your phone's storage. Without root access, you can only manipulate data on your sd card... and so can your apps. With root access, both you and your apps can manipulate data on the actual root storage of your phone.

Here are my top 3 must-have root-required apps:

1. Titanium Backup
2. Root Explorer
3. Avast! Mobile Security (see my other post on Avast!)
