Factory-installed applications on smartphones are one of the users' worst enemies when they set out to remove tools in order to get some more free space on their devices: they are generally the least useful (or at least used to resort to them rarely or directly, never) and, to top it all, they can not be uninstalled.
These applications have names and surnames, and are installed either by the manufacturer or by the operator. They can be the chat of a technology (such as the Samsung ChatON), alternative application stores (such as Start of Vodafone) or some of the multiple Google tools that are usually incorporated in any Android and among which there are some useful, such as Maps or YouTube, and others that may not be as much, as Play Newsstand.
However, not everything is lost. There are a couple of alternatives to get that little useful 'software' to stop clogging, although the best option requires, yes, some courage on the part of the user. Although it does not have to go wrong, 'rootear' your Android device is much more than giving a couple of buttons on the mobile screen.
Marching a 'rooted'
'Root' Android is, basically, get permits much higher than those usually with as a user of a mobile phone. Doing so allows access the root operating system and, thus, have much more power over the terminal itself.
From the 'rooted', options multiply: it is possible to disable factory installed applications that do not interest us, or even to change some of the features of the operating system itself to have a version of Android customized to your liking without relying on the layer used by the manufacturer.
In carrying out the process itself, it is best to search in forums are exactly the steps to follow, because not all terminals are 'rootean' in the same way. In fact, while there is 'software' as Kingroot which automatically identifies the majority of smart phones to connect them to the computer and looks for the best way to 'rootearlos', some of these tools are not compatible with 100% of the devices and, in addition, are not always compatible with the latest versions of Android.
Thus, the best option through mobile official drivers have installed on the computer in question, charge your battery before beginning the process and connect it through USB to, then follow the instructions that are easily in different corners of the network (as, for example, Htcmania).
Before 'root' an Android it is advisable to make a backup of everything that we keep in the phone in case something goes wrong
In general, it is necessary to activate the USB Debugging from the "Developer Options" that are in the "Settings" menu, to then connect the mobile to the computer. With the necessary software (usually the Odin PC program and the file available on the web CF-Auto-Root corresponding to the specific mobile model) and a combination of buttons on the mobile itself, a process is initiated that, at the time of the truth, implies only a few clicks.

Before 'rootear' an Android, it is advisable to make a backup of everything stored in the phone in case something goes wrong. In addition, it is necessary to be aware that, in case that happens, we are likely to lose the possibility of claiming the guarantee of the telephone itself: if it begins to fail as a result of the 'rooteo', the most common is that after-sales service do not be held responsible for what happened.
However, if you want to have maximum control over the operating system of your mobile, this is your best option.
And later?
Once you get all the possible permissions within the smartphone, there are still things to do. It remains precisely to address the initial goal of this small technological adventure: find the applications installed by default on the device and finish them once and for all to enjoy some more memory in the device.
To do this, there are applications such as X-plore File Manager or Root Uninstaler which, among its many features, allow you to navigate through the system directories of the mobile to find the applications installed by default and either freeze or uninstall them completely.
(X-Plore File Manager)
However, in this process you have to walk with feet of lead. In that system directory there are not only the applications that we used to use, but also others that are not usually visible and that carry out internal processes of vital importance to the device. Deleting any of them by mistake can cause the phone to stop working properly.
The simple alternative
There is an alternative much easier (although somewhat less effective) for those who prefer to go to how easy and yet wish to have more space on your phone. Everything passes by going to the "Application Manager" located in the menu "Applications" in "Settings." It is, in fact, a list of 'apps' which can be accessed without having 'rooted' device and allows you to uninstall the applications that we have downloaded Google Play and other shops.
From there, even though it is not possible to put an end to the presence of 'apps' installed by default, it is possible to disable them, which eliminates the data stored and its cache, doing something hollow (not much) in the diminished space of our phone.
Users who opt for 'rooteo' have the option to change the operating system with which their mobile device works by modifying the ROM
On the other hand, users who have opted for the simpler 'rooteo' route, once they get rid of useless applications, have the option to change the operating system with which their mobile device works. It is possible to modify the ROM, the memory that hosts the operating system of the mobile and that, in fact, is a file that can be replaced in the case of Android by other custom.
Among the wide range of ROMs among which you can choose a user to bid farewell to the Android layer installed by the manufacturer there are some very popular, such as CyanogenMod, and others also interesting as Paranoid Android or OmniRom. They offer different functionalities (such as making more use of the screen space, showing unpublished designs or simply making Android a more useful operating system, creating more possibilities when launching 'apps') but all share a goal: give the user the possibility that it decides how it should be the Android that prefers in its mobile.
