Getting a new G1; Rooting etc. ? - General Questions and Answers

Hey, i am thinking about getting a new G1..... I was reading about WIFI - Tether , it said it only worked on ROOTED phones.... If i get a new one with the NEW firmware RC 33.. Will i not be able to "root" it ? Do most applications require the g1 to be rooted ?
Thanks!!

[Q] Just rooted Sprint Hero...

I just rooted my CDMA Hero (thanks to RegawMOD's awesomeness ) and it asked me to update OTA after it restarted & got setup. I was just wondering if I can update w/o losing the root privileges that I just got.
Also, I was wondering if anyone had a link to what sys apps are safe to remove from a Sprint Hero...
Thanks in advance

Root/Downgrade 5.1.1 G920FXXU2BOFJ (Unikernal)

Hi guys, I recently flashed 5.1.1 on my device, (foolishly) thinking that it would get rid of the RAM problem. Unfortunately, it hasn't and I am getting to the end of my tether of all my apps constantly crashing/reloading..
My question today is that is there any possible way I can downgrade or root my 5.1.1 device?
I have checked all the forums and have read through as much as I could, trying to make sense of it all.
I thought I found a solution in Unikeranl, but the problem is, I don't understand what it actually does, as it states that it can root 5.1.1 roms, but for it to work you need to have TWRP which I can't get on my stock device, am I missing something or is there a way for this to work?

I really just want to tether free, but guess need root?

I simply want to be able to use my native hotspot to tether to a tablet, for free. I looked and didnt find any method to get this to work without rooting. But did I miss something? Do programs like FoxFi and stuff work anymore? or is my only option to root?
I looked at threads about rooting, but they all seem to be outdated, or started a year or so ago.
I have a Sprint Galaxy S5 running 5.0,can somebody link me to an UPDATED how to root thread for my model?
thanks in advance
(i am not a newb, i have a LG phone and samsung tab S both rooted, CM12 on the tablet, and Xposed and hotspot unlocked on the phone. This S5 is my friends that im trying to either get free tether mainly, or root if needed, to get the tether)
This method still works

Need assistace, rooting a device and or advice

HI i am new in this (but very good following steps and instructions )
i have a Kyocera Duraforce e6560, I have read something about rooting and i discovered that rooting is one thing and that installing a custom rom is another thing.
In my case the only thing i want in my phone is to enable the MMI codes functions and to remove the hotspot restriction (AT&T is well known by blocking the hotspot functionality of their phone if used with another network.
My doubs and questions:
Can i do that with rooting the device?
once i modify what i need to modify in order to get those functions working back again.. can i "unroot" the system back?
and if possible to remove some bloatware
can you help me to get that?
I have install first flashed twrp recovery and i flashed android recovery thinking that twrp will be removed.....
but it causes problem my Samsung star pro does not reboot.....
I found this thread while searching for a solution for the same hotspot problem.
The solution I found was the PdaNet+ app on the Google Play store. It works fine for me with an AT&T DuraForce E6560 and my Windows 10 laptops.
