We need to go back to Computer Science Fundamentals Operating Systems - 101. The important component between Processor Core, and the Higher Level OS that is interacting directly with the User, is the Kernel. Kernel itself has a User Id, and adequate Permissions, to assign User Ids to Processes, assign Permissions to User Ids and thereby, execute those Processes under the context of those User Ids in the Processor Core. A JVM / Dalvik / ART, are all Processes. An Android App runs in it's own Process. Kernel takes care of providing Processor Time for each of those Processes. Viruses and Malware are also Processes that need Processor Time, and therefore, need adequate Permissions and Privileges from the Kernel. The Open Handset Alliance all have signed a pact for Android that Kernel's User Id and list of privileges and permissions will never be tampered, just like all Unix Kernel flavors for desktops. MS on the other hand is surviving on the Virus Industry. A MS Windows NT Kernel, to this day, even on Windows 10 is vulnerable and open to grant permissions and privileges to unknown, unassigned Processes (Viruses and Malware) that need Processor Time. That's why, no Viruses on Unix Platforms EVER. After you Root, after you remove Stock Apps that you call Bloatware, after you don't know if that CyanogenMod or any other third-party Android Flavor is even secure or not at the Kernel Level preventing Apps from getting unwanted permissions and Privileges, after you don't know if Third-Party apps that claim to handle Kernel's User Management more efficiently will stand to their claim or not, after you don't know authenticity of any thing, please do go ahead and mentally trust everything that shows a Dialog on your Android Screen asking for Permissions, whether you Deny or not.

per app basis permissions ichuko annai...vetiki network acces vetiki storage access leda only oka folder access atla chala permmissions set cheyyochu... bandwidth limit koda set cheyyochu....you can edit the app data to only get all its data from only a specific url... rooted aithey unsecure anedi emi ledu...infact we can protect our device more efficiently.... ban Krishna_jilla for being a TT | ||

SU has a slight disadvantage... adi as a whole anni permissions ni deny chesthundi root access ki... permissions denied app with busybox allows you to manage per-app basis... LBE priacyguard also does the same ban Krishna_jilla for being a TT | ||

with rooting we can explore all the functionalities of the OS.... uninstall all the company installed bloatware.. which we cant if is unrooted..... if you are familiar with networking concepts... root untey super exploit cheyychu.... agree with the malware statement.... but adi root or unrooted pedda difference emi ledu... ban Krishna_jilla for being a TT | ||

i work as Android Dev for past 7 years. I will not recommend rooting. Linux Kernel is it's own Super User. Each App gets a User Id created during Installation process, with appropriate Permissions. Rooting will make all Apps execute with Super User Kernel Permissions, allowing easy access for malicious code to access your secured and classified information such as contacts, even cookies for important apps like email etc, and you won't even know. The Android Malware industry is larger than the Web and Windows Malware industry. "Chill Bro. I told you to let it go!!" - The Budhha. | ||
