Is it advisable and safe to root my Galaxy Y S 5360 ?

There is always the risk of bricking the phone. If bricked, yes it can be recovered but if hard brick, then its just a brick which u can use to smash things. :)

If the phone is rooted, you will have to un root it before going to the technicians for service etc.

The chances of bricking are only when you do something wrong, if you follow the steps advised on different websites specially "xda-developers", it will be a perfect root !!

Its relatively safe. Just as long as you do

research and know 100% what you are

doing.

The risk, like almost anything is a brick and

bootloop.

I personally use a rooted android phone so I can suggest you that rooting causes no harm to your device.

just search how to root your phone model and follow the given steps carefully.

Want to hook up your PlayStation

controller to your phone for better

gaming? You can. Want to set rules for

callers to decide who can and can't call

you when? Why not . Maybe your

carrier has blocked certain apps, or an

app isn't available for the country you

live in? There are Market Enabler apps

that trick your phone (and Google) into

thinking it's on another carrier or in a

far off land. Nervous about connecting

to the public Wi-Fi? Wifi Protector will

keep you safe from all kinds of ARP,

DOS, and MITM attacks. Or, you could

put the new Android 4.2 camera on

your non-Jellybean phone. Accidentally

deleted something you wish you

hadn't? Undelete might just save your

bacon. The possibilities are virtually

limitless.
