So am looking at rooting my HTC u11. I believe once rooted that annoying messege comes on when the screen boots up. Can that be taken off if was to return to stock and unroot?

Run the stock RUU for your phone. That will put everything back to normal.

Except bootloader will still be unlocked

After running stock ruu, you need to relock it

fastboot oem lock

Having root means you can run apps like Titanium backup, which is a big help. Had corruption of a registered app- it told me it was not registered. Without having to do anything more than going into TiBu, & restoring a diff backed-up version, I was back in business as a regiseered user.

Less time than to delete & re-download fm PlayStore & didn't need to be conneoted &/or use data… Many other apps that will give you a lot of functionality & add robustness, like System Panel - which gives more helpful info if rooted, Cache Mate, Clock Sync- which hooks you up to atomic clock & corrects system time- fixing time drift & much more if you get into many system-enhancing apps like Tasker, which while they are more involved & a bit complex, can automate muqh for you like turning on/off wi-fi & more based on location.

Of course the msg comes up bc of diff recovery- TWRP, which gives ability to make total system image backups… That msg takes 5 seconds & allows you access to recovery mode & ability to flash lots of goodies. You can cut that time short by pressing power button- I have a # of widgets which increase boot time to completion. 5-7 seconds for that screen you mentioned & the rest of the boot screen processes, & just over a minute for all my widgets all together… (holding hands palms-up in front of me, raising & lowering, as in weighing loss & benefits- 5-7 seconds extra for the screen you mentioned & under a minute for other stuff like widgets (known to take more time).

Your choice. Good luck w/your U11, it's a great phone & can do even more for you rooted. Lose that screen, by re-locking bootloader & you lose root. At least for now. Unlocking bootloader allows you to install that diff recovery & that gives you that screen & the ability to root , up to your personal use & preferences.
