After having uninstall root completely and reformatting my phone several times I still haven't been able to fix my root or reinstall root in any sort of way and I've tried every method. Here are the details from Root Checker Pro if anyone can help! Thanks

background
i was rooted, then got the auto update, it broke my root
i have tried every mothod out there, even z4, oneclick
started with manual though
nothing, root apears to work fine, but afer the reboot, no root
tried a reset, same thing
any options for me? i actually like touchwiz so i didnt want to flash, but i can
is there a way to flash a non-rooted phone with odin that will root it?
thanks
oh i have flashed before, but it was the omnia i had prior to this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
check this out, i used it last night and it does work.
finally got it
had to do the manual root until i got the # prompt
run su
delete su and busybox
reboot
then reroot
the system thought it was still rooted.
Is it me or for some reason when I restart my device it tells me that I have lost root access but about 3 - 5 minutes later I get root access back with no problems? I have uninstalled supersu and reinstalled it and keep getting the same situation. Is there a way to fix this somehow.
I rooted my phone using towel root, everything seemed fine until it started randomly crashing. Now the crashing happens like this, the screen will freeze (with like weird tearing) then either restart or stay frozen. The only root app I use is wifi tether router. I did notice supersu will fail to update the binaries. Not sure if that could be a cause.
My question is how do I unroot it. So I can at least attempt any kind of fix. I'm still under warranty.
Can anyone help me at all? Please

A thorough way to unroot and reset everything is to Odin back to stock and then do a factory reset. The stock tar can be found here.

I was able to get supersu to work again, could I do an unroot through that even if I used towelroot?

There is an unroot option in SuperSU (although I've never done it so I don't know if it actually unroots or just cleans up things to allow a clean unroot. The other thing I'm not sure it does is restore Knox which is something that will be checked for by the manufacturer). If you're taking your phone back or sending it in under warranty you probably should make sure you uninstall anything you need root for prior to unrooting, but if you're on a custom rom or want to make sure everything is back to factory (including Knox) I would recommend doing what I suggested in my last post.
Same Problem
Same problem as OP. I had a Note 3 originally that I took the update to 4.4.2 and used Towelroot and everything was fine. I recently broke the bejesus out of my Note 3 and got a replacement under the warranty. I used Towelroot on the new Note 3 and I am getting random freezing and a weird line that appears across the screen once it freezes. Sometimes it will reboot others I need to pull the battery.
What is happening? I am now back to stock and want to root again. Anyone have a solution to this?
Hi guys, I've got another issue regarding root. After numerous methods of trying to clear out the root in my system and updating to 6.0.1, rootchecker has been giving the same "Sorry, root has not been installed properly" as well as root applications recognizing a form of root that hasn't been installed properly.
Yes I've factory reset and done whatever else to it apart from try to install the root for 6.0.1, in case that might mess up the root or have any other effect. If anyone can help out it would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Autodescriptive. Without rooting it nor code licence I want to know if there is a way to eliminate pre-installed apps on my phone. Not disabling: removing permanently. I tried an app called Debloater but it says my device Nokia 6 does not allow blocking, so useless.
Thank you very much.
the only option is by disabled them, if your phone not rooted

Have you searched online for the PM Uninstall method? I've done it on every Android phone I've owned the last few years. It can be done without ROOT. Here's a guide I found on XDA. Hope it works.

Without root it uninstalls apps from user space only. Apps are restored after factory reset, so you would need to repeat uninstall process in case of reset.

Yeah the apps would come back after factory reset but as long as you don't have to do that, the apps are as close to uninstalled as can be in that situation. I assume this method would work for OP since he's asking for a solution that doesn't require root. So he's not installing ROMS and keeping everything stock.
