Unrooted,should I? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys !
I have a samsung galaxy s6 edge 925f and I rooted one year ago and I didnt use it for like 8 months since yesterday... after that it ran out of batery and it shut it down. I tried every combination of kies but it when on team win not in the normal safe mode area and I want to unroot it now maybe it will work,what do you think?

Well, rooting shouldn’t cause problems as you described.
If your files aren’t important, you just need to wipe the system partition in TWRP/Team Win.
If your data are important, try researching on the internet for ultimate guides to unroot based on which program have you used to root your phone. (KingRoot, KingoRoot, Magisk, Root Master, SuperSU etc.)

Just disable background apps or reset your phone.
If the problem persists I think you need to change your battery.

[Q] Galaxy S3 I9305 KitKat 4.4.4 Stock Rom strange rooting problem

Hi there, guys! Yesterday I upgraded the rom on my Galaxy I9305 FROM 4.3 to 4.4.4 KitKat with Odin on my laptop, after that I rooted it also with Odin. The 4.3 was release for Orange operator and now it is German 4.4.4 if it matters. So after the root and starting the phone a message appeared supersu cannot start or so, which is normal, so I've entered in Google play and tried to update supersu', but it only give me an option to open it, but when I do it crashes with the same message. Tried to install it manually from the phone memory, but without success, it tries to instal, but then it shows that the app is not installed. The app supersu is in the device/system folder anyway and cannot be deleted ( I tried with hard reset). So I've tried to reroot the phone with odin, but none of my laptops recognizes the phone anymore, it charges, but that's all a message that the hardware cannot be regnized appears. I have another Galaxy S3, that connects easly with all my laptops so I'm guessing that the supersu app is involved. And YES I tried to reinstal the drivers and Samsung kies. I've rooted LG, Sony and my other Glaxy s3 which is i9300 enough times to know how to doit again, but never had that kind of a problem. I hope that someone here can help me. Thank you!
There was that one thing that I didn't try, that did the job finally: I Installed the supersu app but this time from the system/app folder, after that it tried to disable knox but without success, so I have rebooted the phone, but then supersu app was unable to start again, so I installed it one more time ( it works only if I install it from system/app folder) and this time disabled knox successfully.After that the connection with my laptop was piece of cake. That's all, this thread can be locked!

When rooting went south [Murphy's Law] Samsung s2 i9100

Hi everyone... this explanation may be long but I'll try to put my problem in context, please patience!
First, I have years of experience coding stand alone applications and programs but close to none in Android or web development experience... so ... been confident that I could do something as simple ("Yeh right!") as rooting, why should I backup anything from my phone? Big mistake...
My S2 was getting old, space was getting limited and at first I downloaded some cleaning apps (Clean Master) was good for a time but then I had to start uninstalling some of my favorite applications to keep the phone fully operational. After a while I had nothing else to install, as programmed obsolecense was getting my ass, so I decided to find out some ways to get some room in and I found External2Internal app to use my SD as InternalMem, it did the trick except that there still was the "not enough space" message and some apps still refused to install due to the lack of room. So, basically this only modified the reported space in the Storage section of settings.
How I did this? Well, installed KingRoot and then APK Uninstaller with root and External2Internal to finish the trick.
As the problems continued I decided to research more, found out that there was a "better" way, more 1337 way to ROOT and that was installing a Kernel/ROM that was rooted and that would even improve my OS. So I took a tutorial on youtube and Installed "Siyah-s2-v6.0b5" using ODIN and "I9100 XWLSN .NeatROM.Lite.v4.6.1" with Recovery Mode -> Install ZIP from SD. At the end the CMW kept saying that I needed a upgraded version of it and SU needed to be updated but it failed everytime.
After each attempt I wiped to factory settings, cache, battery and even some delvik...
Nothing worked, I downloaded a console simulator to be certain about the rooting and surprise! It wasn't rooted at all...
Then I downloaded CMW update... SU Update... Syrah update... then tried with 4.6 NeatRom Apollo Kernel....:crying:
Now... the phone won't start... it can go into download mode and recovery mode but after ... nothing... I doesn't show anything pass the Samsung Galaxy S ii start screen with the admiration sign < ! > with the triangle.
I Factory reset, wiped everything and still nothing... doesn't start properly.
PLEASE HELP!!!
[bump] please help!

Managed to get root - trying to flash rom

I have an obscure cheap offbrand phone and have been trying to root it for 3 years to which I at last managed to root it with Kingroot, which up to recently, didnt used to work by rooting it (nothing did). So I have root access, its a step in the right direction but ultimately I'm trying to flash a custom rom like cyangwin.
The problem is 2 things, my phones bootloader is weird, its like its been stripped of everything and does absolutely nothing. Fastboot tools finds it but all attempts at any kind of interaction just cause it to hang with "..." indefinitely. Anytime I fastboot I almost always have to take battery out and re-insert it as theres no way of leaving fastboot.
The other problem is I deleted all the garbage apps that came with my phone which caused Google services like playstore to crash so I decided to reformat and re-root my phone but the recovery didn't recover my phone, it only formatted 2 folders /data and something else so I now have a stable phone but is void of all Google services including play-store but all the garabage apps are still missing so thats a plus. Also the recovery left all my setup and configuration as-is like wifi passwords which I found odd for a factory reset.
I adb installed several root apps like RomToolkit and am just trying to figure out what to do now and how to proceed from here. I have a rooted phone, is stable, void of all garbage apps and google apps, services, and the like including playstore. I want to flash a rom and have no fastboot to work with. Any help as to where I can go from here? Is there no way I can just brute force it since I have root filesystem access? Maybe replace fastboot with one that works as expected?

Can't fix Bugged custom ROM

I have a Galaxy S III GT-I9300 I bought in 2014. After three years, I downloaded a custom ROM from xda-developers (android 4.3 is all I remember about it) and installed it successfully. It worked alright until one day when I wanted to sell the phone and a customer wanted to buy it on short notice, and I rushed to delete my files from the phone, but I destroyed the Android... I connected it to my laptop and shift-deleted some system files.... since then, the phone is delaying when trying to unlock (if i lock it now and try to unlock it a few times, it opens harder and harder), when I'm using apps it continously shows that some .com processess stopped working, and if I try to turn on the bluetooth, the phone instantly freezes and restarts itself.
I tried reinstalling two original ROMs, (version 4.1.2) successfully, but the data on the phone&the system problems remain the same.
I'd like to know how can I make a hard reset, meaning in deleting all the files&settings as it was brand new, just to clear everything, like clearing CMOS. I also think the recovery mode is damaged and I'd like to fix it somehow (if this is possible). The installation process I did for installing the custom ROM from XDA-devs was long and complicated, I had to do a lot of things... and I just want to get the phone fixed and restore to default (or even to fix bugs on this android version) its android, kernel & everything could be ,,reflashed''.
I'm willing to pay if someone helps me fix the problems and it really works. Thank you!
