I referred to a site for rooting my android 4.0.4 phone.All the drivers were copied. After the bin4ry process, the site said i would get a restore option on my phone to reboot it, but i didn’t. Hence, I ejected the phone and manually rebooted it. I downloaded root checker and it said my device wasn’t rooted. HELP! is it safe to re-root, without doing anything else.
Yes, you can try re-rooting the device if you weren’t successful in the first try.
Thanks!
