If you have had enough of the great root-only apps available after gaining root access on Android, you can easily unroot your device without too much hassle. By successfully unrooting your device, you should find your device working as well as it once did out of the box.

REQUIREMENTS

• The guide is only for the Samsung Galaxy Express with model number I8730. You can check that from the About Device menu.

BEFORE WE BEGIN

• You must use a Windows PC to follow this guide. The Odin tool doesn’t work with other operating systems.
• We advise you install the Samsung USB Drivers before starting so you don’t find any conflicts.
