Why do you need root-rights on a smartphone

Benefits of Rooting on Android Devices

Additional features that gives Root access on a smartphone or tablet with Android:

• installation of "custom" Recovery consoles, including one of the most versatile - ClockWorkMod;
• copying additional drivers and system libraries that were previously unavailable on this device;
• installation of unofficial (not signed by Google PlayMarket) applications;

• Shell Root - limited Root access, i.e. write protection of the \system\ folder;
• Full Root - Unlimited Root access, the most attractive Root option.
