Root A57 unrooting itself without notice - why ?

I rooted my A57 phone few weeks back. Since that moment, the phone is pretty stable.



But recently something interesting happened twice to my phone. Without any particular reason, my phone goes back to a non-rooted state. I notice it because I stop being able to load any application that requires root permissions, like Titanium Backup for example.



TB tries to boot, Superuser grants it the root user permissions but then TB stays stuck on "Asking for root...". Almost same thing happens to ES File Explorer, which cannot mount /system/ as root anymore. Basically, I cannot do anything that requires root access anymore.


I tried many things but the only solution that currently works is to root it again.

Does anyone know why my phone is doing that ? Is my phone updating and unrooting itself without me knowing ? Can I block this ? Is this a bug of Superuser ?

Do you have any idea ?

Thank you very much for your kind help.
