Never take an OTA after rooting...
If you tried rooting again using the same method, that means the OTA you took broke that root method...possibly on purpose.

Do you have superuser app on your phone now? Can you use root only apps? Do you have Kies downloaded on your PC?

Then use kies to grab the latest update.
I tried but the update doesnt pop up on kies.. yet it recognizes my device
Ok Kies finally told me that my device is not supported.. wtf? I take it that my phone is still rooted in some sort of way?

do you have stock recovery, or did he leave cwm on it? Did you use an official tar?

Do you know how to boot into recovery? If your on stock recovery and whoever unrooted your phone did not wipe data and cache it could give you issues.

[Q] Re-root my desi

Hi all,
i bought htc desire, there was "alpharev hboot-6.93" and S-OFF ,but i think it's unroot
i want to root it back, and i tried many times with unrevoked and it's not working.
i tried to downgrade or flash to stock hboot from alpharev and it didn't take any changes
anyone can help me for the solutions
thanks
Just flash supersu through your custom recovery (which I'm assuming you have since you s-off'd. If you don't have one, let me know and I'll tell you how to get one.

OP, does this work for you?

[Q] Rooting after the new update(10m)

I haven't seen a clear answer on this, so does anybody know what root methods still work after the new update? If they all still do, is there anything I should do differently in the rooting process?
You have to wait till one of the methods gets an upgrade
BAD ASS G3
Well seeing as how the d851 boot loader is shipping unlocked from T-Mobile I think it would be pretty safe to say that once you manage to properly install the 10m OTA, you would simply flash TWRP from purpledrake in fastboot and from there flash supersu.

I used Stump root and mine is rooted again. I had to use the brute force root to get it done in Stump. After that I installed SuperU, TWRP and Busy Box.

Purpledrake probably replaced the M boot.img with the C boot.img. If it did that means your back on the C kernel and if it didn't you no longer have the modded disabled root checker.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you flash the TWRP? with TWRP manager from the Playstore? did you pick your phone trough the menu or did you downloaded the img. file ? I'm rooted with the new update but I want to flash TWRP, thanks

[Q] Updating rooted device

Hey guys,
i recently did this "one click root" thing, because my computer was broken. Anyway, i would like to ask if i can update system through the "Update center" or w/e the name is. If so, will the root privileges remain?
Thank you. Martin

You can't take OTAs while rooted,however you can still update apps through the update center. It us very rare to have an OTA work while rooted, so if you want to take an OTA you need to unroot.

It's just as simple as unroot with SuperUser? With any rooting method?
Thanks

Not always because your RCT checker will still say rooted in most cases so you need to flash back to stock.

Is that not a one time unroot? I thought that if you unrooted with that method you could not root again until you reflashed the phone.
