Your Samsung Galaxy Core Prime is now completely unrooted and is back to the stock ROM.
When you unroot the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime smartphone, everything goes back to the way it was before you started to learn anything about rooting the device. The stock ROM comes complete with the stock applications from Samsung and everything that Samsung had on the device before they sold it to you. If you ever want to run the root apps again, then you need to root the device. The way you root it in the future might be different to the way you did it in the past. The reason for this is because the new software updates bring in changes and the rooting tools need to work around those changes. For example, if you got root access to a smartphone that was running Android 5.0 by using the SuperSU tool, that same version of SuperSU might not be working if your phone is now running on the Android 6.0 update. There is going to be another version of the SuperSU application that you need to run instead. The best way to find out how to root your smartphone is by checking out what Android software version it is running from the Settings menu and then search Google using the name of the device and the Android version. There should be a guide waiting for you.
