How to Unroot the Oppo Find 5 Mini

Maybe you flashed a custom ROM on your Find 5 Mini that didn’t meet your needs? Or maybe you don’t want to have root-access on your device anymore as you find it a bit scary (what if your kid accidentally deletes a system file!)? Either way, this guide should teach you how you can unroot your device and get it back to stock.

Unrooting is the process of removing root access, a custom recovery (if you have one), and just trying to get the device back to as close to stock as possible.

Some of the reasons for unrooting your Oppo Find 5 Mini are:

• Sending in the device for warranty (most, but not all unrooting procedures reinstate the manufacturer warranty if you had one before rooting).
• Starting over (simply undoing everything you did while rooted so you can have a clean slate to start over).
• Fix any issues (Maybe rooting messed something up? No problem, unrooting will take care of it for you).
