Hi all

Relative newbie here with incredibly frustrating issue that has wasted many of my hours recently!

I saw this a thread about getting sky go (a UK video streaming service) working on a nexus 10 by spoofing build prop to think it's a nexus 7http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2045403

I flashed stock rom from Leapinlar's great thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2062613) then rooted with very green's equally great zip (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2437575).

Used device spoofer to switch build prop to nexus 7 and hey presto, skygo appears in play store - whoopee!

The problems come when I look to remove root - I used supersu to perform full uproot, reboot, clear cache, factory reset etc but whatever I try, skygo still gives me an error message saying my device is rooted.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this despite full unroot? Could it be the fact that the above process leaves me with cyanogenboot / non stock recovery? If so is there any way of rooting and spoofing whilst maintaining stock boot/recovery?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Mike
