Not clear whether you are suggesting gaining root via a Cyanogenmod etc instal or somehow via the existing Android; but same problem with either ie retail value will be small afterwards;
If you root the existing install then you can remove the root access afterwards, or you could just sell it without telling the buyer as it makes no changes to the UI.
maybe I should keep an eye out for a phone which either provides, 1/ 'off-the-shelf' application deletion' 2/ something which comes with root capability 3/ something which is so cheap that installing Cyanogenmod etc won't matter when the ZTE F165 dies.
A Nexus 4 meets that reasonably well. Kogan was selling them for $170 last year. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
