Hello,

I'm currently using an Android media player, adapted into a kind of 'tablet PC'. Just recently I sent a support request to WhatsApp Support, which responded telling me to first remove root access to my device. Otherwise, they will not be able to help troubleshoot the WhatsApp issues on my device. I was not the one who first set up this media player so I don't know if the person who first set it up enabled root access from the onset.

i) How do I unroot my device?

ii) After unrooting my device, will I be able to restore root access?

Thank you very much in advance.

Hello Junaid,

thank you for your reply. Sorry for my late reply as I had no internet access in the past week.

In general, is unrooting my device a safe practice? Are there any risks I should know about if I use SuperSU to unroot my device?

More importantly, how will I be able to restore root access to my device?

Any advice given here will be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Jim
