Hi, I rooted my Xperia SP yesterday via TowelRoot and everything was great. I used SuperSU which was fine but I decided to factory reset as I wanted to root with a custom rom which ended up an awful idea. Now my phone will not work will SuperSU, root explorers but TowelRoot still somehow 'works'.
Any ideas on how to either completely remove the root or completely root?
anyone?
Could someone please help me with this?

Hi all, i've got for my little brother a GoTab10BK running 4.2.2
The problem is i cannot root it.. i've tried all the possible ways.
The thing is that the tablet by default after a factory reset and cache cleared from stock recovery, if i check the root status it says "ROOTED" , but i cannot make supersu or superuser to gain root access. With some tools like SRSRoot or oneclick says that is rooted and still no luck. I tried with options like unroot .. all i get is the tablet restarted and i can do it again and again and again, it will say it's rooted.
All i need root is to move some games and apps into extSD.
Does anyone have a clue if is something i can do about it?
Hi guys,
I rooted my phone a month ago using Kingo Root, it works fine. So I un-rooted now and restarted the phone and it says "custom" when I go to Settings - Status, etc.. I factory reset the phone and it still says custom! weird.
I don't know why this is happening, when I had an S4 and used Kingo Root to root it says custom but upon un-rooting the phone returned to Normal.
Does anyone have a stock recovery img to flash? or a way to solve this? I would like to be able to check for updates.
I have the C101 International version.
Thanks
Have you tried installing a stock ROM with Odin software? It should resolve the problem! have you tried it?
Hello. I have a Samsung Galaxy Discover (SCH-R740C) from Cricket. I had 4.0.4 when I got the phone but accidentally upgraded to 4.1.2, thus losing the previous root I had on the phone. Now that I want the root back, I can't seem to find anything that can root it whether it be from the computer or my phone. I have tried a lot of thing but all seemed to fail. Is there anything that could root it or maybe help me downgrade back to 4.0.4 or earlier? All help would be appreciated. Thanks!
What I tried using: Kingo Root, UnlockRoot, Safe Root, z4 Root, Key Root Unlocker, Poot, Framaroot

The only option I see left is towelroot. I can't promise it will let you downgrade as its only for root and nothing related to unlocking the bootloader

Unable to unroot and root issues!
Hi there,
So I recently performed a factory reset on my sony xperia z2 while it was still rooted with kingo root to update my phone. I realized this was a mistake and I should've removed the root first using the kingo software (kinguser) before performing the factory reset. Now I keep getting the following message from root checker (Sorry! root access is not properly installed on this device). I've tried everything to remove the root and reinstall root (Kingo Root fails every time) but nothing seems to work. Is there a way to manually remove all kingo root files? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank Youu
If no files needed use sony pc companion to fix z2 it'll put a fresh system. But keep in mind I'll erase all

Hmm...a simple factory reset does not update the phone, though it will wipe all your settings, basically returning your phone to its factory state. What version of Android were you on when rooted? What version are you on now? Did you take an over-the-air (OTA) update?

I rooted my G800F using the Chainfire Odin Pack.
Then I factory reseted my phone and then the root was gone.
I still got the SuperSU app installed but root wasnt working.
I used root checker to test it.
I know that i can flash the stock firmware but i really want to do that only if nothing else works.
Thanks for answers.
