Hey Guys,
Got my Thunderbolt rooted and s-off. Running decent... But I have a few problems with bugs/wondering if there were any known fixes...
1: CWM is having problems... as in picky about when it wants to reboot... etc... should I just wait for a new flash?
2: I liked usinig Andguard on my droid... but it seems after rooting/s-off my thunderbolt and installing Superuser/CWM, I cannot use Andguard...It states it does not have SU permission and to check root or Busybox... help?
Best!
Thanks to the DEVs working hard on this!
Are other apps that require root working for you? Like maybe Titanium Backup, or Root Explorer? Heck, there's a free app called Root Checker you can download to test.
It sounds to me like you have issues with your su, superuser installation. Did you download and install SuperUser.apk from the Market? Does it give you a pop-up asking permission when you run your app? If you open SuperUser app, is the app listed as having permission allowed?
If all of that is yes, then try installing a new version of busybox. There's a busybox installer app on the Market, or you can use Titanium Backups "Problems?" button to download a copy.
Let me know if that helps out.
Problem started when I tired running TiBu and superuser access was denied, pressed "problems" button, but that really offered not help...I have no idea why TiBu is being denied su access; busybox is installed and other apps requiring root are running just fine. I tried reinstalling busybox and su is denied as well. Opened su app and neither TiBu or busybox are on the list of apps...
I also did the normal uninstall and reinstall of TiBu...no luck
Any help would be much appreciated. I have checked forums and all that jazz and it's just not working.
Just to be sure do you get S-OFF at the top of your bootloader screen?

Try clearing data for super user app. I had this happen once and that cleared it up for me.

Same thing happened yesterday to me. Just uninstall the offending apps and reinstall. That's what worked for me.
I as well saw this recently with tibu. My solution, since a quick reinstall didn't work for some reason, was to clear the data for tibu. Next time I opened it root permissions were properly requsted.
How do you uninstall Su...it doesn't show up on the list of downloaded apps in settings/apps, also can't delete it when on the market or with the uninstall app...maybe with root explorer?
Truly appreciate all the help but I've tried all of the above multiple times with the exception of uninstalling Su and no luck...now it seems any new app that requires permission is not granted--tried downloading my back up root and access was denied still looking for a solution....Thanks

I'm getting permissions issues whenever I try to run any root apps. I get a message like this: "SetCPU could not obtain root access. Did you allow SetCPU through Superuser Permissions? Operating in read-only mode." Everything is set to "allow" in Superuser, and I have tried rebooting into recovery and clicking "fix permissions." It tells me that permissions were fixed, but when I reboot, the problem persists. I'm on the latest Synergy. What do I have to do to get my phone back to normal?

Sounds like maybe SuperUser is still denying these apps (although a user would have to tell super user whether or not to allow a root app). Run Super User and delete these apps from the list and re run the problem app and set allow again.

That didn't work, and when I try to update Superuser the last thing it says in the log is "Gaining root access... fail!"
I'm gonna re-install my ROM and see if that does the trick.
EDIT: I think it might have gotten messed up when I pulled the battery out when it was booting. In case anyone has the same issue in the future, I just flashed my ROM again (right on top of the old one) and it fixed the problem.
I've had that issue with shootme since superuser/su updated last, but haven't bothered to really look into it since cyanogen has screen shot built into it.
Is anyone else having superuser issues? All of a sudden it it is saying I dont have superuser or root access.
There are some issues with superuser. Which version of SU do you have? I believe the most up to date version is 3.0.4 or something to that effect. I believe that if you get the newest version it should fix your issues as the description on market says that it has fixed the issues saying that you have an outdated binary.
I have been using Infected Rom Eternity. My SU access was fine until I flashed the most recent update of their ROM. When I flashed it, my SU access broke. So when I looked into it, I saw that they had a superuser fix to downlad and flash. Once I flashed that fix, it worked again. Then about a day later I saw that there was a market update for superuser, which said that it corrected the problems people were having.
First, try to update SU. If not, look for the Superuser fix to download and flash over on the Infected Rom Eternity thread in development. good luck.

I fixed my super user issues by going to manage apps, finding superuser, force stop, clear data, then uninstall updates. After I did that I've had 0 problems with su

Yeah clearing data and uninstalling it worked for me when it kept force closing

I can also confirm (using the InfectedRom) That uninstalling updates resolves the issue.
Is there a widget, or a setting to turn off Automatic Application updating without affecting anything else ?
This would be quite beneficial.
That seemed to work......thank u. I am using the viper rom now do u guys kniw of any rom or where i could get a good wifi tether for 3/4g that is config for the evo 3d?
@Mike - Bear me to it. That's what
I did too and it worked perfect.
I personally use Clean ROM DE and wifi tether works for me

Odd, Force stop is grayed out for me, and just clearing data and/or uninstalling updates doesn't work. Knew I should have done a Nandroid more recently...

For some people just force closing and clearing the data works but for others it doesnt...you just need to flash the su you used when u rooted the phone and that is going to fix the issue...then if u want later on u can update to the new su...

Same here, su suddently gone fc after it update itslef.
I can't get it back to work, try uninstall, reintall, push, zip whatever.
In the end have to reinsatall the rom to make su work again

I had to do the same thing. It wouldn't let me roll back the update via the market or through the settings menu. Without root, I couldn't run Titanium to restore the version I had backed up, so I had to reflash the rom.
If anyone has to reflash the rom, make sure you don't have "automatic updates" checked off when in the market under the superuser app, or it will happen again.
Uninstalling updates, then reflashing the original SU zip through recovery seems to have worked. I tried Kernel Manager, Quick Boot, Wifi Tether, etc...all were able to be granted SU access with no crashes. Not sure I'll ever update SU at this point if I don't run into problems.

For anyone having problems with superuser. Download this version and flash in recovery. Do not let it update or do not update it until all is well again. Just go into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik-cache and flash.
I just upgraded to JB on my HTC Evo 4G lte. I am S-ON rooted and everything is working except SuperSU v0.99. I see several others are having the same issue. We are rooted and our apps can obtain root but when you open the SuperSU app, it wants to update the binary. If you allow it to update the phone crashes and reboots. If you select cancel SuperSU closes and you cannot get to any of the settings. There does not seem to be a solution that I have found. I would like to switch to another Superuser app but can't seem to find instructions on how to do so.Will changing to another Superuser app even solve the problem? Ideas?
Edit: Upon further investigation it appears that changing to ChainDD's superuser app may not solve the issue of not being able to update the binaries. So what is the solution?
Edit: I got my answer:

The only solution is to get s-off. It looks like the new hboot locks the system partition so apps such as supersu and ad-free aren't going to work for you anymore.

I'm having the same issue. I switched to superuser and now I'm rooted as root checker states but I can't use adaway any more as Xhausx mentioned that the system directory in JB is locked now and the only way to make it work is to get s-off which is not available right now and i doubt it will be.
