How to unroot Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duos

These are the guidelines to unroot Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duos SM-G355H. Given that this is not a device that runs Samsung’s Knox security, you can unroot using the guide we have below and find your warranty working again. That means sending it away for the same free repairs you could have done before you decided to root the handset. Of course, you will need to have had a warranty to begin with for that to be the case.

REQUIREMENTS

The following is designed for the Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duos handset that comes with the model number SM-G355H. You can find that information out by heading to the Settings > About Device and looking at where it says the model number. Those with a different model number to the one I mentioned cannot follow this guide.

BEFORE WE BEGIN

Download the Samsung USB Drivers for mobile phones from Samsung’s official driver link found by scrolling down this page.
Have the Developer Options enabled and the USB Debugging Mode enabled. You do that by heading to the Settings > Developer Options > USB debugging Mode. Those who need the Developer Options to access the USB Debugging Mode option can do that now by heading to the Settings > About Device menu and taping over the build number until it says you are not a developer.
If the following guide doesn’t work for you, we suggest downloading another version of Odin. The Odin app comes in various versions, none of which come with an official changelog since the Odin flashing tool was never official released by Samsung. It was rumored to be leaked and that’s how all of us amazing people are using the unofficial flashing tool.
