How to Unroot the Huawei Valiant
Having issues on your Huawei Valiant and need to send it in to service center? You must make sure your device’s unrooted before sending it in, as most probably the service center won’t accept any devices that are rooted. Here’s how you can unroot your Huawei Valiant 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 Huawei Valiant 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).
