Root unroot needed

Ok. I am running ubuntu 11.10 but can get a m$ system if needed.

How do I unroot my admire?

I need to get this done because my phone's network card is failing and I need to cash in on the manf. warranty.

Actually.... that does not root your phone. It is one of those little rumors being spread around the internet.

The only thing that the stock factory restore does is clear the data and cache so all you need to do is re-onstall superuser and you are still rooted.
 
Hmmm really, well it kinda worked for my last admire(Bricked). I tried installing superuser and no luck, couldnt read root. Btw i took my last one to a Coorperate store and they honestly didnt even look through it and i got my warantee for it, no questions asked. Even my battery showed water damage and the person ddnt even knotice....
 
I spent a few hours in front of the metro pcs corporate store here and used the stock recovery method. After I reinstalled superuser and then ran root checker basic I still had root.

If someone was able to write a script to execute the task of rooting, somebody ought to be able to unroot it.
