Hi everyone, got a new 9740-8, and I have rooted many Motorola droid telephones, but not a tablet. I've read the following thread: READ FIRST: Development Index and Root Utility and I was wondering if rooting would enable any of the following on the 9740.
1. Will it enable location services so apps (weather, maps, etc.) can find my current location? I have google location servies checked under system settings, but it can't find my location.
2. Use video calling in Skype? I have skype downloaded, but there's no option to test my camere so I don't know if video calling works.
3. I've gotten used to using 1mobile, amazon app store and slideme for my apps, so I don't need to root for gapps, however, if the rooting method is pretty foolproof I wouldn't mind having gapps
Grea site for information. Thanks for help in advance.
