I just downloaded CM7.2 on my Galaxy551, using this thread URL....The phone has root, but it gives root access to everything without superuser prompting.I tried to update the su binary but it stops at "Making sure new su works". It just freezes there.

I plug phone in. I run the simple root, and click root. It puts my phone into the while skating android screen. It looks for updates, but doesnt prompt me to download one. and it doesnt ask me to reboot. It isnt rooting my phone.

Recently I updated my phone to version A706ROW_1_S_2_001_0018_130705, and because of this my phone became unrooted but still had superuser installed. I would like to re-root my phone using Framaroot again but it cannot be rooted due to superuser. How my unrooted phone with superuser's presence be removed completely.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIt seems that I accidentally changed the ownership of the su file to "system, sdcard_rw" and now I have no way to change it back to "root, root". Everything was working fine beforehand. I have already attempted to reroot using the same way I originally rooted the device and hard reset with no luck.

How to make android 4.0.4 devices rooted by superuser?
I open my superuser:
downloading manifest okay
parsing manifest okay
latest version 3.1.1
checked install version 3.1.1
fixing database okay
unpacking sutools okay
check current install path= /system/xbin/su
Downloading new binary okay
gaining root access fail
I have my device rooted by means of UnlockRoot, at first I think the version of superuser is low. So I download Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip , exact it and replace the old version superuser and su .
I click the root on the software and it seems that everything work. But the fact is that I can't find superuser in my android devices and manually install superuser by myself. And then the phenomenon above appears. It seems that I have rooted the devices and I can't get root access. It is more dangerous than I don't root the devices.
Here is the scenario:
Motorola Droid - Original
1. Rooted 2.1, then
2. OTA Stock Update to 2.2, then
3. Seem to have lost root, However - I still have the Superuser Permissions Icon.
I use Barnacle for WiFi Tether - I get a "Permission Denied" error when I try to start the application. I also went into the terminal emulator and tried an "su" which also gave a permission denied response. I tried "sudo" and also got permission denied response. Others have told me this is common with this progression of events. However, How do I now ROOT 2.2 in this scenario?
I used Unrevoked to get root, could not install any ROMs at all till Ava 2.2 was released then was able to install it. Now, my root prompt in ADB shell has changed from $ to # which supposedly means I have full root. However, there are still files I cannot delete, rename or remove and can still not install other ROMs. Can I get full root? Will I have to revert all the way back to original release to get it? What on earth have I done? Is there hope for people in the Sahara desert? Can I fix it at all or am I stuck with this funky root?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have the app "Superuser Permissions" BUT I don't see it in the Market as even existing. Also, I have been more seeing people mentioning "Superuser" app recently - like OMJ. Well, when you search "Superuser Permissions" in the Market they show the app "Superuser" and not "Superuser Permissions".. what's up with that? So, I tried to download "Superuser", but I get a Failed Installation app.

I am getting used to Android. iOS has the prompt panel every time an app tries to access your address book, photos, calendar or location. Is there such a thing for Android?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm running into a bit of a problem that should be easy to fix but of course, it isn't. I have an Android Based Head unit AN-21 U, that I have connected to my car's OBD 2 port via USB (Obdlink SX). Every time I open the program to access the OBD adapter (Torque Pro, Dashcommand, or Touchscan) Android pops up a prompt asking permission to use the USB device. I check the default checkbox and it is not remembered, the next time I boot I have to answer the prompt again.

All can't install superuser, but superSU all work perfectly. The problem is everytime I tried installing superuser it says binaries not updated. I reinstall it again and again even by flashing its zip it's still the same thing.Is that because my custom recovery is TWRP not CWM? The reason I'd like to switch to superuser from SuperSU is that I think root program really needs to be open source.
I rooted first phone the day after purchase, I bought another one and now I have 2 to play with but ever since I bought the 2nd evo3-d it came with 1.50 s-on.Got sick of Sprint so I had it flashed over to metro.Came back with 3g speed and all seemed fine, also unlocked with s-on and had rom mgr installed. finally rooted it with evo hacks site method and managed to flash a couple of roms with minimum problems.
Finally decided to use the lovely TRWP Gooim recovery app and when I went to install a new rom I did the kelvik and cashe clearing and by accident I also did a system wipe. The new twrp app is very touchy, must careful when fingers are hovering on topof screen..I am only able to go into to twrp recovery boot screen and it states I have no OS. Am I in trouble? IS there a way of using CMD Prompt and force a ruu original recovery?
I was running Android 4.4, rooted and CWM installed. Got a notification for 4.4.2 update being ready (like, a week after upgrading to 4.4), and tapped it. Phone reboots into debug mode to install it, but then CWM starts yelling at me saying this zip I'm trying to install is unsigned.
So I stop the upgrade. Phone reboots back into Android 4.4 and I don't get the update notification icon again.
Two questions:
- will I get the update prompt again? if not, can I do it manually while keeping all my stuff like happened on the 4.4 upgrade?
- is the Android 4.4.2 update really unsigned? is there a danger in accepting it?
I'm not sure what to do now since I didn't have CWM flashed when I did the upgrade to 4.4, which went completely smooth.
I've just rooted my device (Nexus 5) with Chainfire auto setup and I've downloaded Superuser by Clockworkmod. When I opened it up, it showed a message saying that I needed to update the SU binary, I went back to the Play Store, I read the description and I found a link, that allows me to install it from a recovery files. Once I downloaded it I opened the app again using the recovery files, Android crashed and rebooted itself, but during the boot it showed a dead android image (the one with the red triangle). I've turned off my device (Nexus 5) and then I've reboot it, now all works fine. I'm terribly scared, what the hell happened? It's my fault or Superuser just crashed?
View 3 Replies View RelatedRecently I pull down the source code for Koushik Dutta's Superuser app. I made some changes in the source. This changes are the following:
1. SuHelper class now throws 2 kind of exceptions instead of one generic instance of Exception. I believe it is better for developing. Different exceptions, different reasons, different action to do when they are catched.
2. Fixes for several Lint's warnings.
3. Fixes in translation.
4. UI new features:
a) At the first screen you can long click at an item several actions are shown ("Allow/Deny" which changes the permission without deleting the permission, "Revoke permission", "Details" leads to the same screen as a simple click oat an item).
b) At the details screen for every item/application and new checkbox/switch added to allow/deny superuser permission.
c) At settings screen miscellaneous settings added which refer to the pop-up dialog about the outdated su binary.
see the attached photos from the modified application.
I would like to ask 2 questions now:
1. Do you think that these changes are useful to you?
2. Should I pull the current HEAD of the from the repository or simply commit and push my changes?
Rooted according to Superuser asks to update binaries, regardless of install method selected, says "superuser failed to install, send log to developer".
Titainium Backup will also not work.Busybox says my phone's rooted, but doesnt install?
Tried SU uppdate fixer, said, Superuser not installed?
What does this mean? is it normal? i have it showing up quite a few times in my superuser logs. like, several times within a minute. today is the first day. been running this rom for about a week.
I read that disabling usb debugging will stop it, but thats already disabled...
I am running dmans stock ics for samsung captivate glide.
Is there a way to have the superuser name included on the Settings list? Was thinking of doing the same thing on a stock rom or custom rom for ICS or Jb.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently awoke my Galaxy Nexus (takju) from the lockscreen; inadvertently pressing the key combo [vol-up + vol-down + power] initiating a 'Bug Report' (dumpstate) command
Upon entering the Homescreen I was seeing the infamous 'shell has been granted Superuser permissions' toast ~2 seconds apart which lasted ~2 minutes, subsequently vibrating and opening a new message in Gmail containing 2 files - bugreport-date-time.txt and Screenshot_date-time.png (Sent from BugMailer).
This 'toast' has been reported in various device forums/threads and I thought this may shed some light; whether it was a dumpstate command initiated by an inadvertent key combo (as in my case) or a system/app crash bugreport.
If you have experienced this 'toast', check your internal storage (sdcard) for the - /sdcard/bugreports/bugreport.txt and /sdcard/Pictures(in JB)/Screenshot/Screenshot.png - the timestamp of the dump should be in the filenames.
