  • if i root my motorola droid razr, can i install 2 os on it? e.g. apple and android?

  • @Dreamheartz I haven't heard of anyone installing iOS on Android yet.

  • US carriers really are shit aren't they! charging for tether!! WTF!!

  • @toranamunter It's called dictatorship within democracy or something like that. horrible.

  • Your video sucks you explain that an option with rooting would be to allow you to use your device with " different rom's and ability to user ssh". People who don't know the basic idea of rooting would have no idea what a ROM or ssh is about

  • @sxybasturd thats the point of my tutorial videos for people who don't know.

    probably not because iOS as a system does not have support for the hardware within the android phones. If you can get the code for apple and edit yourself- knock yourself out

  • Even if you don't understand most (or any) of this info you do know (by watching this) that we are getting ripped off by all corporate commercial name brands.

    In the long run only 2% of the public will be able to decipher what is really being handed down here in this video, so the major carriers will still come out on top. They know that 98% of viewers will never go here.

    At the very least this is not China: we do get exposed to this info. And realize just what we are missing out on.

  • Nice video, Subscribed!

  • AdFree is great to have as well when you root your phone. So nice playing games and not having the ads in the way.

  • Tethering is included on my Data plan through Telus (Canadian Carrier). That would suck to have to pay for your Data and pay to Tether? That's crazy.

  • how can u forget chainfire 3d ? :)

  • don't mean to be a dick, but to comment on your facts about iPhones. You can't "kind of" jailbreak it. You can fully jailbreak it and add anything and everything that you want. Wifi tether, ssh, terminal, iFile to see the root of your phone, roms, customizations, tweaks, and hell..even apps if you want to go that route. Nice vid though, I want the S2 so I can have the best of both worlds.
