How to Unroot the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge (Australian)
Maybe you’re going to sell your Australian Samsung Galaxy Note Edge as you want to buy a new device? Maybe you’re having issues on your device and just want to send it in for warranty? Either way, this guide should help you unroot your device and get it back to stock. It’ll reinstate the warranty which will help you get a few more bucks for your device if you’re selling it.
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 Samsung Galaxy Note Edge (Australian) 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).
