Id suggest selling your rooted box on fleabay and buying an unrooted box from fleabay.
Your rooted box is worth alot more than an unrooted box. Make a little money from what you want.

Hi guys,
I rooted my phone a few days back after I bought it and then just wanted to see if I can unroot it following the How TOs on the forums and I used one of the stock roms for Virgin Mobile but I didn't pay attention to the build of it. As it turns out, it was 1.23.351.1, so I am now on 1.23.351.1 and UNROOTED. I found a guide how to downgrade but it seems like it only works for ROOTED phones. I can't get past the part where I have to enter SU to have SuperUser access and I assume it's because the phone is not rooted and SuperUser Permissions is not installed.

Any suggestions?
Thnx
Unfortunately I don't think its possible to root from anything 1.22+

Rooting the phone is really easy, infact you can do it without even using a PC (towelroot). At the moment there is no custom recovery, but hopefully we will see that change once the phone is released in more countries (later this week).
As for unroot, one simple method would be to re-flash stock, but I assume you are looking for an easier solution than that.
That's what I am looking for too because of the bloody Barclays Bank app.
I want to root my LG G3, block ads, bloatware etc and then unroot to get Barklays app working
S4min, Grand 2, Note 2 - I always rooted phones and then unrooted by uninstalling root in SuperSu app.
Is there any similar method for LG G3?
Re-flashing to unroot doesn't make sense for me cos I will loose everything I needed the root for

I don't have my G3 yet to check (and not sure I will be rooting it straight away when I do get it, I want to see how far I can go without root first), but I cannot see why the unroot method in SuperSU would not work.

Flashing back to stock should take you back as if you have never rooted. Assuming all you did was root the phone.
If/when there are further modifications such as unlocking bootloader and flashing custom recovery images this might change.
Newly purchased at&t note II from swappa. All is well, phone in great shape... But seller believes the device to be rooted, but I can't seem to verify that. In settings it states running ezKat rom.... But superuser says no binary. But an app from playstore requested superuser access? Im confused. Downloaded terminal emulator shows $, not #.
Is it possible to have custom rom but not be rooted? Thanks!
Flash supersu via recovery and you should be good...
http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/
Once booted....superuser may request a binary update...
If it does...just install it under the "normal" option...
Happy flashing....g
Thanks.... But...
Unfortunately, it didn't work. I flashed. Tried root checker. No root. Reflashed. Nope. The original owner sent me the file he flashed, that didn't work either. Im guessing at this point I should start from scratch? Full factory reset? . Ive never reset a phone that wasnt stock before? . The phone has twrp installed? Showing ezKat in the about phone section? At a loss... Dont want to brick it, I don't need a paperweight. Just want root
Any advice for me?
And THANK YOU!! I. Can't seem to find the thanks function here...
Yeh...
I'd probably go back and start fresh with an Odin back to stock 4.1.1...
Then root again...g
Hey everyone, I wanna unroot my phone and feel this is the easiest way. (Tmobile) The only thing i did while the phone was rooted was change xposed stuff to make the bars change colors and added a different kernel. I never put a new rom on it so its running the LG one still.
If i unroot with supersu will everything go smooth? I wanna factory wipe it so i can use my jump and trade it in. thanks in advance!

Why didn't you used the search function?

You will find this thread either way:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
The thread will tell you how to revert to stock. You don't first need to unroot in order to go back to stock. The thread I just mentioned will help you revert back to stock with no trace you ever had root or a custom recovery etc.
I have a rooted Samsung Tab S wifi with this firmware installed T800XXU1ANFB. In order to unroot do i need to flash it with the same stock firmware it has on it. Or can i flash it with an updated stock firmware?

Just select full unroot from settings in the supersu app.
I am a newbie... so here goes.
I did root it but when I go to verify it it doesn't verify. SuperSU was put on my device, but it wants to update the binary and I did that, but it keeps failing.
What I want to do is unroot it entirely and set it back to factory settings so I went to the settings in SuperSU like said above. If it is unrooted, how would I know? SuperSU is still on my table And only able to.bto.be disabled instead of e tirely removed.
I also think it didn't work because maybe I was trying to root it with a auto file for kitkat instead of lollipop. And links to the version for this lollipop are in a few places but each time I try to extract what I've downloaded the file is corrupt and it never unzips.
I've got the galaxy tab s 10.5; 16gb; wifi only (sm-t800) running lollipop 5.0.2
I'd really like to root so I can get the bloatware off, but if it isn't possible at the moment then I'd might as well go back to an unrooted device.
I'll take all the help I can get or be directed to. I've been pulling my hair out for two days on how to figure it out.
After you have unrooted reboot and you will be unrooted. Root can be verified with Root validator.
For root you can use my build here:

On a second reboot I noticed I wasn't rooted. Thanks. I finally am rooted now.

I'm having a different problem but I am sure it is related to this topic.
I ended up being properly rooted after I got the correct one for lollpop 5.0.2. Then I realized that The Sims Freeplay would not work. I tried to use root cloak and I had no luck. I thend tried to use xposed, but it hasn't been upgraded to Lollipop yet.... so I thought about if rooting my device was really worth it since the only game I religiously play is The Sims Freeplay (apparently they are cracking down on people who hack their game.... which is all good and well because because it has nothing to do with my game... I have a rooted device to get rid of bloatware, not to hack the game that I play in a legit way -- but whatever)...
So I chose to unroot from SuperSU like I did once before (when I wasn't properly rooted, but SU was still on my device) just to see what would happen.
I've used Odin two more times to put back the original root file I got to work for Lollipop and now on the second reboot, SuperSU still hasn't been put on my device (like it originally had did long before I even rooted properly).
So now TWRP boots up every time I want to just go straight to my download screen and from there I click on download to get to my screen. That's when I use odin and the cf-auto.
I hope I don't sound confusing. I just want to know where can I go from here?
Apparently the Sims Freeplay is being a real PITA about people trying to play their game on a root device (doesn't surprise me with EA), but I want to play it on my device rooted or not... but now my tablet feels like it's both. It's not straight out of the store box and it's not fully rooted...
What the heck am I doing wrong now?
If you have twrp installed you don't need to flash cfautoroot again. Just reboot from within twrp and it will offer to root.
If you are still having problems see the link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/root-cf-autoroot-twrp-t800-t3079488
If you are having problems getting into download mode you are not doing it properly.
Hold POWER + VOL DOWN + HOME.
Under which category will it offer to root and will there be a way to get the sims freeplay working? If not I'd like to get back to straight out of the box for the tablet... but something tells me after reading for a few hours last night that thats impossible.

If you unroot with the supersu app you will be fully unrooted.
To reroot boot into twrp then reboot.
