I can't root my Xperia X10 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried X10FlashTool, Universal Androot, and SuperOneClick and they all report success. Superuser is installed, but it doesn't work. Root Checker says that it isn't rooted and tells me this "Alternate su binary location: /sbin/su: Permission Denied SU binary not found in the system declared PATH.

I use flashtool (not sure how the others work.)
Have you made sure you have unknown sources and debugging enabled in the application settings?

I got it working by updating to 2.1.

[Q] Advanced Root Check

I'm unmounted and rooted, but every now and then an app requiring root will tell me I don't and usually say the Superuser.apk is missing. CWM runs fine, Absolute system tools pops up saying I don't, but then another popup from Superuser says Root access granted to absolute system tools and it allows me to use all the options within. So I downloaded and ran root check, here are the results. Any ideas why I'm getting the error?

Try uninstalling & re-installing Superuser. Also make sure to check the "Remember" option the first time you use an app.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the Superuser app.
/system/app/Superuser.apk does not exist is the error I get, but it goes away quickly and I can use all the tools.
SD Maid works
ROM manager works
SetCPU works
Root Check says I am

[Q] su Binary without any checks?

Is there any su binary i can use which does not use any GUI to check for permissions and stuff? i need it for development and my second problem is that the su binary shipped with the superuser app does not allow root on adb shell...

Removed Super SU all is now ok.
I have been trying to root my Kyocera Rise I just got a week ago, and I am having this problem as well. However it seems that removing SuperSU isn't doing the trick. What was your method of going about this? I'm so lost without root access . I followed the tutorial to a T, multiple times, as other users have suggested, and I get nothing! Thanks for your time!
I had the same problem I went into stuff folder of binry and replaced supersu with su, re-ran it and root took 1st time

Forgot this but make sure you open super su and in installing from within app and then uninstall in market before running with su apk.

Could not get v17 to work. I saw in the thread v3 was supposed to so I tried it and after a few attempts I got it.

any luck on 4.0.4?
the latest krise firmware version is 4.0.4.
In the thread the guy who reported rooting success didn't say his version num, so it could be outdated information.
I am on 4.0.4, was not aware of any other version for this phone

Since you have a rooted copy now, could i borrow a backup or a copy of the system folder because I installed hp beats audio installer (do not do) and my audio drivers are messed up. It is really taking a long time to get a copy so I was hoping that you guys would have a good copy. I also have another guy with the same issue so please help us.
the actual problem and a slight fix...
The actual problem/glitch with supersu is when it tries to promt access for su it freezes the app. When I tried unistalling supersu and installing superuser. It did not work for me even with the proper uninstall procedure (going into super su settings and click uninstall and prepare for new su app. Then go to the play store search supersu, google still thinks installed so click uninstall from there then immediatly search and install superuser.) I even tried going into the root setup folder I downloaded and switched the su apk files to start the root fresh... and still nothing. I figured out its the problem with the app trying to promt you for su access (ether app) bcs when I went into the settings I changed it to automaticaly grant su (TO EVERY APP READ BOTTOM DISCLAIMER) instead of promting you to ask for su.
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR A ROUGE APP TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOUR PHONE WITH YOUR SU SET TO GRANT ACCESS TO ALL APPS INSTEAD OF PROMTING YOU FOR YOUR ACTION ON ACCESS.

Cannot Get Root Access After New ROM Installed

Hey Guys -
After being an iPhone fanboy for years, I recently went to Android to try something new. For two months, I've been running Revolution HD (4.3) on my HTC One - but - yesterday decided to give Venom ViperOne a try. I downloaded the latest version, booted to recovery (TWRP) wipred cache, and applied new ROM.
Everything seemed to work great, but after getting many things set up, I found out that I didn't have full root access. When laucnhing SuperSU, it said something like the binaries were not installed, but I finally got that to go away. Re-installing the binary via Recovery didn't fix everything, though.
I installed Root Checker Pro and here is what it said about my phone:
Root Access is not properly configured or was not granted.
Super User Application Status:
SuperSU application - version 1.69 - is installed!
System File Properties for Root Access:
Standard Location
Check Command: ls -l /system/bin/su:
Result: /system/bin/su: No such file or directory
Analysis: File /system/bin/su does not exist.
Standard Location
Check Command: ls -l /system/xbin/su:
Result: -rwxr-xr-x root root 104556 2013-11-17 20:25 su
Analysis: Setuid attribute is NOT present BUT root user ownership is present. Root access is NOT correctly configured for this file!
Alternative Location
Check Command: ls -l /sbin/su:
Result: /sbin/su: Permission denied
Analysis: File system permissions restricted and denied access.
Alternative Location
Check Command: ls -l /system/xbin/sudo:
Result: /system/xbin/sudo: No such file or directory
Analysis: File /system/xbin/sudo does not exist.
Root User ID and Group ID Status:
SU binary not found or not operating properly
System Environment PATH: /sbin /system/sbin /system/bin /system/xbin
ADB Shell Default User:
ADB shell setting for standard access, stored in default.prop, is configured as: root user - ro.secure=0
I have tried many suggestions and now have 3 different zip files for SuperSU that I've tried. I'm still researching, but any suggestions would be fantastic... Thanks!
Click build number at setting 7 times until it appear developer option, change root access to app and adb, see if that can solved your problem

Thanks for your reply. Fortunately, I finally fixed it by doing the following:
1. Uninstalled SuperSU via Play Store
2. Downloaded the 1.69 SuperSU update file and installed it through Recovery.
3. Re-installed SuperSU via Play Store
Once I did this, it verified working 100% again in apps as well as passed verification.
Thanks again for your help!
No sweat, Glad you've solved your problem

why are you sideloading superSU ?
just copy it to your phone storage and flash it with TWRP /CWM

Using CWM to do just that, flash 1.93 update to fix the fact that 'su' disappeared after KDZ update to ICS, trying go back to GB KDZ Stock has me stuck at LG logo. tried re-flashing a number of times...just going around in circles...

Root your device again by update.zip Superuser apk only manages permission . It cant do anything without su binary
So root your device again to install su binary
