I hate and Will Never Install FB Messenger. Memory is precious in devices with the manufacturers bloatware you can't get rid of without rooting the device which breaks other apps. As long as I can just clear cache and delete data for the Facebook app and reconnect to get messenger functionality for another week I'll keep Facebook. When they actually remove that functionality from the Facebook app I'll delete it from all my devices. And go web interface only.

*ALL* of my devices are rooted... I've never had any problems before.

I had mine rooted also, the problem with rooted devices is that some apps do not work. Can't download digital copies of movies and TiVo Streaming doesn't work. Had to reinstall official Rom. Facebook is the problem not lack of root.

You keep referring to some obscure app that mysteriously breaks due to root exploit... I would like to know more, as I have not yet found any such app.

I downloaded movies for offline viewing from Google Play, and Vudu, to both my rooted LG G3, and Nexus 7 (2013), both of them while rooted. You alluded to having to 'reinstall official Rom', which leads me to believe your problems aren't with the root exploit, but problems with whatever ROM you installed.

Anyway, you said carrier bloat was the problem, not facebook... On most devices, root access is easy to obtain, and extremely useful (for say, freezing carrier bloatware).
