I have an older Samsung Galaxy A3 with an already unlocked bootloader (it comes pre-unlocked) that I want to clean & root. I have a few apps like firefox, some games, DraStic, notesnook, etc. as well as my music. I want to keep all of this of course bug remove all the other bloat i dont need. I dont want a custom ROM or anything. The samsung ROM is good enough (android 6.0.1) I am very unaure on the process though & I dont want my old phone to get bricked so I’d appreciage it if somebody helped me out here, thanks.

okay, exactly how should I flash that boot image to the phone? do I put it in download mode? & will this erase all the data?
