My buddy got a rooted EVO on craigslist, wants to go back to stock, just feels better without root, doesn't have any interest in rooting, roms, etc.
I rooted my own evo so i have some exp with rooting the phone but was thinking i could just flash update.zip and it would update his phone and unroot.
but two update.zip i dl which were supposed to be official 2.2 did not work, one failed verification/signature cant remember excactly but will post if needed. the other one just gave a strange error.
Do i need to wipe the data/factory reset/or anything special?
Am i to hopeful assuming flashing update.zip will unroot? also if he gets OTA update tomorrow should he accept and will that unroot?
thanks in advance, i tried to do a search on unrooting and found a bunch of dead end options, i tried a few with no success. I was hoping the new update would be the easiest route.
here is a few i tried
sorry to new for links....
did not try this one yet, was hoping the OTA would avoid this:
any insight is greatly appreciated, i have tried to convince him to stay rooted but no luck. if anybody had success with one of the OTA 2.2 update.zip floating around and could share a link it would help me out, i used two different ones with no success.
For the love of god, please search and post in the right forum. There are tons of threads on this, including a new one this evening.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743192
The thread above is even on this PAGE with the subject line of 'How To UN ROOT. TUTORIAL. Your Problems are solved!'.
HOW you missed that is incomprehensible.
PLEASE IF SOMEONE CAN MOVE THIS TO THE PROPER FORUM I WOULD APPRECIATE IT, I MESSED UP AND POSTED INCORRECTLY. thank you...
I searched the forums, I tried to post the links of many options available for unrooting the phone, I don't have the privileges to post links.
The one you posted I DID SEE I should have been more direct, I was looking to see if the new OTA update will update the phone to 2.2 and unroot the phone, since its not my phone i don't want to spend to much time on it or simply pass the info on to him.
I was NOT IN ANYWAY looking to be directed to another source for unrooting or lead to a link, what i could not find was if the new ota will be the easiest route. I had him try two run two of what I had believed were the newest ota update.zip with no success.

Rooting-For new members here of XDA Galaxy Y Sub-Forums, Rooting is the Basic Mod we do on our Galaxy Y,Since we bought our Galaxy Y at Samsung stores so it comes with limitations to prevent messing up with your System-level files so the Root method is the answer so you will be the true master of your Galaxy Y.
Advantages &Disadvantages of Rooting
Advantages
-You're already the true master of your Galaxy Y.
-You can now use some Root apps from Play Store.
-You can modify now your Galaxy Y like Custom ROM's,Custom Boot Animations etc. that requires ROOT.
Disadvantages
-Your phone's warranty is already voided,It means that if you messed with your System files ,Then the phone manufacturer will reject your phone as it is rooted already,However you can UnRoot your phone if you have problems regarding the buttons etc.
-You can't use some of their Services that comes with your phone.
Just Google "How to Root Galaxy Y" then follow the directions so you can obtain now root access.
use search button and you will get information faster than waiting someone to answer. don't be lazy.
Ty for answer Sean De Jesus.. I heard for temporary root.. Is it exist? If I root phone, should I install custom rom or can only root? Would I got all settings like custom rom? What if something goes wrong? If they wont turn off or something..? I need more info..

Temporary Root will root your device but once you restarted or turned off your phone,Its gone.Its a good step for new phones to test if root is working fine on that device.
It depends on your mood or your knowledge about modding your Galaxy Y,If sonething goes wrong with your Custom ROM then flash back to your Stock ROM or if you have a backup called "Nandroid backup" you can restore it using Skin's CWM.
rooting is just made in order for you to be able to have admin privileges on your phone so that you can by-pass system restrictions
no need to worry, you can always unroot your phone
using the unroot.zip
ps: it's just piled down due to post like this, use the search button to find it
Pls search before posting..

Hi,
I just got the phone and have looked thru the forums and I have yet to find a definitive thread on how to root a ATT Samsung S3. Can someone point me in the right direction as the root hits I find all say my phone needs to be a I9300 and mine is a I747.
Also does anyone know what was fixed in the OTA updated that came out 4.0.4? Will this affect me being able to root the phone?
Thanks in advance...Todd

HEY!
Ok so im not completely sure which update 4.0.4 is but I think there has only been one so far right? the one that nerfs google search. Anyway, Here is a link to the guide that i used (after I did the update) and i followed the steps and the comment posted by danK in the comments. He said "If you’ve updated to newer software update, the stock OS will over-write ClockworkMod Recovery on reboot. To fix this, make sure “auto-reboot” is checked off in ODIN, then take the battery out when it’s done flashing in ODIN. Then enter ClockworkMod Recovery right away. " Doing this let me root my phone with zero issues.

(sorry it said i could not post links yet but this is the URL but without brackets)
Thanks for the link, that is only how to flash clockworks mods, how do you root the phone? Can anyone share that info?

Hello guys, since this is my first post on xda, I want you to forgive me, if I am on the wrong section of the forum.
I am an owner of an Ace 3 (s7275) device, and I'd like to root it, but, I cant find any trustworthy guide, is anywhere here on the forum, any tutorial/guide on how to root my device?
Thanks in advance!

Second method worked just fine for me, did you enable Usb-debug mode in the developer settings ?
(The developer settings are hid by default, you can bring them up by tapping the "Build Number" Dialog in the "About device" Section of the system settings)
Rooting with VROOT
Hey there, i've just got the Ace 3 too.
I downloaded a chinese software called VROOT and rooted my phone.
Later on install SuperSU which then updates into its binaries and asked me if i want to uninstall the chinese root app.
And in case anyone tries the CWM method and the phone stucks at 'rebooting recovery' .... just reinstall from KIES update or download the files from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-S7275R and flash with odin ..
Give it a try, hope it helps !
Rooting with CWM is possible
A new unofficial CWM recovery is build.
Thus rooting with CWM is possible too.
Good luck!
