I am new to rooting and got real excited about rooting my phone and gave it a shot. Yes knowing little I jumped in head first.
First off I used the one-click-method. It appeared to work so I went looking for things to do with my newly rooted phone only to be let down because no other roms really exist for it.(I started to wish I hadn't been dumb and gotten myself in so deep)
Now I install z4root and attempted to unroot.
This app never really worked correctly for me so I was unsure how successful it was.
After installing the root-check app I was notified that my phone was not rooted yet I am unable to get rid of the SupeUser app I got from my original root.I remember reading that im unable to get rid of it because its existence on my phone and purpose for being locked in has to do with my phone really being rooted.
I check the update for superuser and it tells me I need to flash my new binary but after attempting to install it with recovery mode it tells me the zip was not successfully opened. Thus not installed.
Right now I have a fully functioning phone with superuser in place but from what I can tell its not rooted. Can anyone help me understand what the hell I did, and then how to undo it?
