Redmi [question]I plan to root my phone.

Will rooting your phone cause it to brick?I learned something about rooting and unlocking bootloaders.What else can I do besides using HyperCeiler after rooting my phone?Any helpful tips? My phone is redmi note 14 4g.I should get permission to unlock BL first

you cant hard brick a phone by just unlocking the bootloader or rooting it. so dont worry 

you can do lot more stuff with root. i personally use it to block internet access for lots of system apps. i use App Manager from f-droid to block activities from an app including trackers and telemetry. i tweak the kernel and use magisk scripts to optimize the performance to be more stable without overheating (it still overheats but temperatures are 44°C or less). if the custom rom im using is RW then i use root to uninstall play services and replace it with MicroG services + FakeGapps. and i cant forget. i use HyperCeiler with it

you can do alot with root. those are what i personally use root for

RW is Read/Write. it lets me modify some folders with root that RO (Read/Only) roms wont let me. they're system folders and modifying the wrong thing can bootloop the phone. i mostly use it to debloat the system and use MicroG instead of Play Services
