Having rooted once in the past is enough to invalidate Secure Folder forever even if you go back to stock

Knox is trip no matter what if you root your phone and Secure Folder need Knox.
Lock your bootloader and check if it works

Hi,
I have a Nexus 6 that I am going to start using for work.
My work has a policy that they do not allow rooted devices.
I rooted my Nexus 6 simply to get LED LightFlow to trigger the hidden LED.
When I rooted I used the Nexus Root Toolkit from Wugfresh. I did not use a Custom Recovery and I kept the stock OS (5.0.1 LRX22C)
I really would rather not have to do a wipe/reset if I don't have to. I just need the device unrooted to adhear to company policy.
(and ideally to be able to get the 5.1 OTA when it is released later this month)

Um how will you work know? do they have software they put on the phones? also if your worried just use root cloak. It hides root from set apps.
You can flash the images from the Google Stock image file, and skip userdata - that will restore your phone to stock, without wiping data. Look at the stickies in the general forum for N6

They push a BES client that checks. They already told me they know the phone is rooted. (big brother)

Thanks for this info....
I just noticed that in SuperSU there is a feature called: Full unroot
Can I simply do this and presto... the phone is unrooted?
Since I kept the stock OS and didn't put a custom recovery on the phone... do you think this might do the trick?

It may - but it still won't get you direct OTA (since OTA now checks for any change to system files)

Just to echo what jj14 said. The "Full unroot" option in SuperSU will remove root, but it won't (at least it hadn't on the last version of it that I tried) revert one file that root modifies, so, while you won't have root, and the BES client should work, the update checks the entire file system, so it will fail. A quick flash of only the system.img file using fastboot will remove root and leave everything else untouched.
Thanks for all the advice guys!
I appreciate the assistance... this is why this community rocks!

I should have paid closer attention to the Nexus Root Toolkit from WugFresh.
There is a built in option that unroots without a refresh.
D'oh

Many of us would recommend you learn fastboot commands manually rather than relying on toolkits. This helps you get out of trouble when things go wrong. That said, its too late now
I'm still running stock 20q and just wondering if I should install the latest OTA update released about a couple weeks ago, as I would like to eventually root my phone and I don't know if it would make it harder to do so.

I have root, should I stay away? PS: my bootloader is unlocked
Have found some info that I should flash it with flashfire from chainfire, but info is outdated
besides I dont want to loose root
Another thing disabling OTA From the hidden menu does not work on Tmobile H811, I have to sleep with the wifi off so play services doesn't download the patch.

well update and rooted. only takes like 5 minutes or less.
you need lg drivers and minimal adb fastboot. if you already unlocked nootloader and rooted then.. just download KDZ 20r. flash it with LGUP. select refurbished after you select KDZ file close LGUP then open it and this time select refurbished .. start.
boot into fast boot .. send twrp .img install it from sd card permanently and you ar set.. then rooted .

Super SU does require root. I was confused by his answer as well. I wondered if I could use the latest Base for my phone from Autoroot but I'm not willing to risk it without knowing for sure.

Just out of stupidity, and morbid curiosity I tried to Autoroot the last known good rom from that site. And it failed with a FRP lock error message. I'm surprised it didn't brick.
Hey why don't you make your own rom. Pretty easy... you customize it to your like, I made mine and it's pretty stable. And it roots it from pc

I don't think you understand. The rom isn't the issue here, It's getting root access that's the problem.

And I can confirm that secure folder is actually working with tripped Knox.

I hope someone will figure out why this worked and maybe do a topic on how to get it to work again after stable Android Q releases.
I can't get my hopes up but I also want Samsung Pass to work.
Alpha, and beta releases are signed by test-keys, which is actually public, means anyone can sign apks & push them to system, basically, you can fool samsung apps so they think your device is still with knox 0x0, which will get them to work fine.
In release keys, manufacture signs their APKs with set of keys they only have access to, which will be hard to fool.
Just recently checked and my phone no longer has root access. I'm not sure what happened as the boot.img is still there. I checked the version of my device and it updated itself automatically from 13.0.6 to 13.0.7. I am just wondering if it's because my phone updated to a different version that I lost root access.. or if it's something else. I've disabled the auto-update, but is there a way to get my root access back without having to reinstall everything from a clean slate? I'm very new to rooting so I don't understand much.
Can someone tell me why I lost root access, how to prevent it, and how to reinstall root without losing all my data? Here are the specs for my phone:
Xiaomi MIUI Global 13.0.7 Stable
Android Ver 12
I used this guide to root my phone previously:
