There's an option to unroot via SuperSU app. If you didn't root via SuperSU, there's some app called "Universal Unroot" I guess

Thanks for your reply. Unrooting isn't really the problem, it's the getting back to stock part that I'm struggling to figure out.

Go back to stock without losing ROOT

HI everyone I would like to go back to completely stock without losing my root. I know there is a thread to go back to stock and I have done it before and I lost my root. I just want to go back to a completely stock ROM ?
Thank you in advance

Just use the flash tool and then use the all in one kit that will flash twrp. Then boot into recovery and press reboot. It should prompt you to root.

If I remember correctly, you can update and keep root by using Mobile ODIN Pro.

If you have updated the rom flash an older kernel version like the one from ANE2 and reroot with towelroot, after that reflash the new kernel from the ANGx rom. Done, you will losse nothing, look in geneal for the thread.
Here's the thread. Confirmed working.

Try to follow this instruction (using Superuser Pro)
1. Open SuperSU settings
2. Scroll down to the bottom, Enable Pro
3. Check Survival mode
4. Uncheck Enable Superuser
5. Install OTA update
6. After reboot, Enable Superuser
7. Disable Survival mode
Note: You have to purchase Superuser Pro for this to work, and you have to reboot after upgrading to Pro.

There is already a way to go back to stock if you ever do decide to root. Give it a try and if you want, you can flash stock again.
TWRP Recovery is now available for the Note 4 on Tmobile.

Can you do a video on how to unroot or at least some step by step directions?
I've tried to find an answer to this but can't seem to get a 100% sure answer. If I simply root, that's all, no custom recovery. Will I still get OTA if/when Samsung/T-mobile release an update (ie Lollipop)? Thanks!

Yes you should get OTA if you stay stock.
I had a Quick question about Twrp recovery
I have a tmobile note 4 sm-n910t. I have rooted with cf auto root and put the twrp recovery on and flashed the sd card fix. If I unroot via odin with the stock rom will android recovery be installed again or do I have to flash android recovery again to get rid of twrp recovery. If I do have to reflash android recovery again do you know where I can find it.

[Help] Galaxy S5 Active SM-G870 stuck on a stock recovery

How do I get out of it and install rom
Thank Yossi
Using Odin
Can you access Download mode?
If so, then install stock firmware on your phone using Odin.
Other solutions can be flashing a custom recovery via Odin too. I recommend flashing stock firmware for complete fix.

Can't root if you are on the official lollipop update, needed to be on KitKat rooted to be able tp, so that cuts your answer short as root would be needed for the rest.

Ok so how would I roll back to 4.4.2 kit Kat? Is there a way to do that? My phone won't update to 5.1.1 or whatever and I can't root on 5.0 at this point I'm stuck. Can't find the necessary tar to or direction to do either at this point. Thanks for any help. I'm still searching for answers lol
