DO NOT MOVE THIS TO THE HUAWEI M825 SECTION BECAUSE I MESSED UP MORE BIG TIME SO DO NOT MOVE THIS THIS IS JUST A QUESTION I WANT TO KNOW K
 
Wow. That was difficult to read. Without any punctuation marks (AND A LOT OF YELLING), it seemed as you were saying everything in one (loud) breath.

Joking aside, you shouldn't have any problems activating the rooted phone. I think that was your question. If you are really worried about it being rooted, then just restore the phone back to factory before activating.
 
I want to help you, I really do, But I was lost half way in, but I quess I will stick with the answer I always give my wife. Yes Dear.
 
yes but i deleted my stock android launcher so it is not in my phone so factory reset in cwm recovery mode now it is stuck on the metro pcs boot logo there is this site where you can get the stock launcher but my WOT and McAfee site Warning tool says it has virus downloads so don't want to risk my laptop. that is why i am using the mate 35 rom because it is the same but a little faster. At the LG Esteem Forum they said you can activate it on there site but a person has my moms number that is weird so i can not do it online and do not want to risk them finding out i am rooted and i have linktosd app apk that i can but it on my SD card but no way to install it (this app make you force move apps to SD card and uninstall apps on your phone like metro bloatware it is a root app)
so if i want to uninstall superuser i cant because i don't have it and you can be rooted without superuser installed so i just want to remove superuser that is really it now that i think of it
 
I am so lost....

. . . right there with ya

Let me take a stab at this. I think you are worried about activating your Huawei M835 because it is rooted and as a custom ROM on it (how am I doing so far?)

I then told you that you shouldn't have any problems activating a rooted phone (Metro won't find you out), but if you were worried about it you could restore back to an un-rooted state.

Then you said you can't "un-root" for a variety of um, reasons.

My wife had the M835 for a while (phone sucks, btw), so I know a little about it. And from what I remember, there was no "restore" program like Odin for Samsung or LGNPST for LG.

So. Again, just activate the phone while it's rooted. I successfully activated my ROOTED Admire to Metropcs (via #228; via internet NEVER worked) and the Metro police have yet to track me down. Muwhahahaha!

I hope this helps clear up everyone's confusion (including mine?) regarding this thread. If I was wrong in any of the deciphering, I apologize.
