Does this bring all the apps and stuff you didn't want, back? I rooted my phone a little while back... being a newwwbie, I didn't read which apps weren't supposed to be deleted. I deleted email.apk... and now my camera doesn't work. I was wondering, if I can unroot it, if it will bring back all the apps as it was? And I can re-root it.... because I there are so many ways and certain things you have to do for flash and all that.

NO.

it only unroots your phone.

if it did anything else it would say so...

restore a stock nandroid of your phone if you want it back to stock

merit.rooted.deodexed.rar

merit.stock.rooted.rar

merit.stock.unrooted.rar

merit.unrooted.deodexed.rar

use any one you want, unrar and put in the proper directory structure, and restore using a custom recovery

Hi guys, I am regretting rooting my phone now haha :(
I used Framaroot app and SuperSU to root my phone, on the menu you an pick unroot, i tried to do it but then nothing changes. After I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Express, for some reason Google Play Store does not work. I searched up many tutorials but all of them includes downloading apps from the app store. I couldn't download "Triangle Away" because i can't get in the app store. It always says "No Connection" "Retry". I turned off my internet switched it back on again and my 4G too, still does not work.... So i tried to restart my phone, still does not work.... Now i tried to reboot it, by holding down home button, switch off button and volume down button, I got to the screen where it says press Up to continue and press Down to restart the phone. I pressed up and it shows this screen saying Downloading and a some numbers and letters on top left. I was waiting for it to download for nearly an hour, nothing happens, still stays on the same screen.

I really want to Unroot my phone now, but I can't find a way to do it :( Someone help pleaseee!
