If you have SuperSU installed on your device, you can open SuperSU, find its app settings, find the option to remove root/uninstall and cleanup, select that and it should remove su binaries and the SuperSU app to remove root.
For good measure, you can then reboot to recovery, if you have stock recovery wipe cache then reboot, if you have custom recovery you can wipe cache and Dalvik/ART cache then reboot, this cleans up any cached data that might cause issues(if any) after removing the SuperSU app.

If you have kingroot then go to kingroot settings and click on uninstall root
This will remove root completely from your device
Then you can check it with root checker app after rebooting

[Q] Is it possible to Flash .ZIP without root?

I have Galaxy S6 (920F) with Android Nougat.
I have managed to install TWRP Recovery on my device and it is allowing me to install .zip files. But my phone is Not ROOTED.
So my question is,
If I flash .zip(s) now that are made for my device, will it be installed successfully?
or my device will stuck on bootloop?
Well, if you are flashing some files into directories that don't require root to access, it will work.
But lets say you want to flash ported system app (like message app). It will not work, since it requires flashing into \system and that directory requires root to be accessed and modified. :good:

basically, boot into recovery, flash twrp, reboot, boot again into recovery which now is twrp then flash another zip and in the end you have a custom recovery and root, righr?

Root galaxy s7 advices

Hi,
I would like to root my samsung galaxy s7 sm-g930f with android 7.0 and firmware phn.
I tried to root my phone with CF-Auto-Root-herolte- and odin but I made something wrong (probably not using the most recent file version or odin version) and my phone was blocked.
Then I flashed a new stock version to resolve the problem.
Now I would like to know if this method is correct (without installing twrp) and if is it possible root the phone without erasing all my data.
thank you

If you want to root I would recommend you to use Magisk but a fsctory reset is mandatory if you want to do this as you will have to flash TWRP to install it and since the encryption changes when you install a custom recovery you will need to use the format data option under the Wipe menu in TWRP and that will factory reset your phone. So make a backup first.
If you decide to do this. Use the format data option then reboot to recovery and after that flash magisk zip. After that reboot to system and wait.

Root for SM-G611F (On7 Prime) Questions

Hi, I was looking to root my SM-G611F On7 Prime, not to install a custom rom, but to remove some of the Samsung bloatware, and install some apps that require root access.
- How can I root this phone, trying to find a guide for this phone specifically but getting for other model numbers.
- If I root, will I be able to receive further Samsung updates? (I don't plan to install any custom rom so receiving official updates is necessary).

Ans-
If you are using a SM-G611F with pie running one ui . You are not able to work twrp without any problem.
It has many issues like data encryption whenever you reboot your system and back to twrp data encryption problem continues.
Still there is no zip to overcome this problem.
But don't worry
Just flash the twrp for SM-G611F.
Format data from wipe section.
Copy the magisk.zip in USB drive from computer or any other device.
After wiping data reboot recovery.
Connect the USB drive.
Go to install section and select storage USB.
And flash your magisk zip
Wipe cache.
And reboot your system
It won't boot first . Don't panic it takes two boots to boot up.
After two boot your device rebooted.
And its rooted .
Download magisk apk and rock on.
Note - you won't be able to upgrade your device.

HTC U11 firmware upgrade

Hello everyone,
First of all, sorry if i post it in the wrong section and if i am not always making sense.
So here is my situation :
i have a HTC U11 which i rooted a long time ago with TWRP & SU.
I then switch SU to Magisk (a year ago), because i needed to hide my root from few apps.
I wanted to update magisk Manager, but i lamely failed
(i went to recovery mode, installed the uninstaller ZIP for Magisk in order to put a version above 18 but then i had a boot.img missing error)
So i did restore an old backup that i had from 2017...
Currently i have :
Version android : 7.1.1
Firmware version : 1.27.400.8
Magisk version : 18.1
Magisk Manager Version : v7.1.1
TWRP Version : 3.3.0.0-ocn
My questions :
I want to update my firmware. I mean, my phone tells me there is an update. Is it what we call OTA ?
After i've downloaded the new firmware version (1.27.400.21), i select install now, and my phone reboots to Recovery mode, but asks me for a password (to decrypt data).
What the hell is that ?
Also, i would like to be able to still install this new version (and the futures ones).
How do i do that ?
Is it possible to upgrade the Android version too ?
I wish not to have to wipe or lose data.
What's the point to wipe data, dalvik, cache ?
When you do it do you lose your personnal data ?
Many thanks for your helps and support

Find out your cid/mid
You will need to flash the appropriate ruu (nougot) for your phone from here (sd card method)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15JL3tRWDSVOUKo_revEYtQ_tRcOSJ0vWcvk8a7TK8Hk/htmlview
in order to receive the ota updates. And yes you will lose everything. Backup as much as you can . And once you go to pie there is no going back unless s-off. ( There is another way but more involved) . hth
Thanks for your reply.
How do i find my cid/mid ?
I tried yesterday to use adb, but i could NOT find my device in download mode... The only way i was able to see it was to boot in recovery mode.
Can i still get my cid & mid if can find my device whilst it's in recovery mode ?
So i understood that i need to download the right file, rename it, put it on the root of the SD CARD and then boot my phone in bootlader mode.
Don't i have at some point specify the ZIP file to use ? Does it mean it will detect it automatically ?
Then why doesn't it work if i put it on the root of the internal sotrage of my phone ?
If i flash a RUU, will my phone still be rooted and unlocked ?

I believe the adb command is "getvar all" while in the download mode. get the cid/ mid number reboot then get matching nougot ruu zip. rename to 2pzcimg. zip place in the root of sd card boot to download mode not bootloader, it will detect automatically, hth
Thanks.
Will my phone still be rooted ?
Will i have to reinstall Magisk & Magisk Manager ?

Oh no it won't be, you will have to reinstall twrp, Magisk,
fair enough.
but sadly, adb doesn't work on my computer. I can't see my phone.
I only get something when my phone is in recovery mode.
download more & bootloader mode, i can't find it.

Try installing htc sync manager then reboot and run adb. You just may need the right drivers
I have read more about it and you're right it should be something like that.
Also, once i have flashed the RUU, rooted again, installed TWRP & Magisk, will i still be able to update OTA ?
I don't understand when some people say they uninstalled Magisk, intall the OTA and install Magisk back on...
Is it really the way to do it ? To be able to install latest OTAs ?

You will have to install ota before rooting , once rooted or twrp installed Ota will not install. This is my understanding, if someone has a different approach please chime in. Installing just the firmware is a different animal and requires more reading!! Hth
Okay so we are on the same page.
So my question is ow do you keep installing OTAs when your phone rooted or with TWRP ??
also i remember my cid is HTC__060 which i believe is india.
Is there anyway i can change it to Europe ? I mean, is there any interest for me to do so ?

Ota will stop once twrp is installed, I really don't see a benefit changing cid, but that's up to u ?
To install an OTA with twrp you have to:
1. Download the OTA in zip format (search in this forum).
2. Copy it to mobile memory.
3. Reboot to twrp and apply manually the zip.
If you are going to change the Cid, change to Taiwan version (that region has received more updates than the rest of the world).

Root S7/ S7 Edge & Unroot Easy (Updated: 02/09/2020)

This is an updated root and unroot method for the s7/s7 edge.
I updated the zip file with the latest eng boot
Uploaded the latest stock files
Credit: https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-s7-s7edge-oreo-nougat-t3819616
Use V10 Odin Files this will allow you to root the s7/s7 sdge on the latest firmware. (02/09/2020)
Directions:
This works for Oreo And Nougat Roms
As always there is a chance of bricking your phone
1. Download and extract S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root.zip
2. Reboot your phone to download mode
3. Inside the S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root folder you will find an Odin_Firmware folder. Use Odin and flash the Eng Boot Image for your
phone
4. Once phone is rebooted and connected to computer click on the cmd-here.exe and type root.bat in the command window and hit enter
5. Follow directions on the command window
6. You can only use system root on Oreo
7. Once root is done and root bat closes leave your phone alone for a few minutes it may reboot a couple of times
8. Sprint Users This should work for you as well just let me know if your phone reboots with eng boot.img installed like it did on nougat while try too run the root.bat. I may need to change some things
9. With this system root do not update su binary if in anyway you get something asking you to update binaries ignore it. You can also disable notifications about updating binaries. This will not affect su app
10. Don't flash any superuser zips in recovery that are not made by me
