annoying superuser - Motorola Photon 4G

I just installed cm7.2 last night and everytime i open a rooted program i have to exept root permision somtimes 3 times in a row even thoe i have the save boxed checked.

Have you tried updating your SU binaries? Rebooting? I and many other have been running this ROM for a while without this issue. Did you do a clean install or what?

not sure how to update my binarys but i did do a clean install like the directions said i have even flashed over it onece casue the internet wasnt working fixed that problem but su problem still there.
Not sure what i did to fix it but it is fixed now updated the binarys and that didnot work then flashed new kernel and installed su updater fix dl in market then ran v6 supercharge to clean system and get back ram then poof it was all good.

Glad it worked out for you, best guess is the kernal fixed it? Dunno for sure but either way as long as it works now.

[Q] Lost Chainfire3D after flashing BAMF Sense 3.0 rc4

Flashed new BAMF SENSE 3.0 RC4 tonight. Went to play some GOF2 which worked great prior to flashing from froyo. Checked chainfire3D Pro and can't get cf3d driver to install. It boots me out. Uninstalled, rebooted, and installed again. Same thing happened. Superuser asked to grant access. Agreed. Same again. Is this a GB issue? Please help.

No its not GB as I am running GB and chainfire 3d. Sorry I can't really help what the issue is

I go to install the driver and come up with "ERROR Could not write to /system" message. I came from a Froyo ROM and chainfire worked beautifully for GOF2. I'm assuming that /system is locked. I just need to get it unlocked temporarily to install the driver and then lock it down again.
Please, if you have any idea's how to keep me from flashing back, let me know.
Fixed with different ROM
I was able to get Chainfire3D to work with other ROMs like Thunderstick. Found that Gingeritis comes with the free version of chainfire3d preloaded on the ROM. Upgraded chainfire to pro and now have a fast working, Netflix streaming, Tegra Zone enabled Snapdragon proc'ed Thunderbolt. Best of all, didn't have to go back to Froyo

[Q] Problem Loading Widgets on Boot

I'm on Gobstopper 2.3.4 and I've recently been modding my phone with faux123's OC kernel, juwe11's ram optimizer, the Webtop hdmi hack and so on, but I recently ran into a problem. Whenever I reboot my phone the widgets don't load and just display as "Problem Loading Widget" in LaucherPro. It might not be because of any of the mods, but it only started happening after I installed them so it's lead me to believe it might be one of them. Please help!!

Fix permissions with Rom Manager, or in CWM under advanced, then set up your widgets again. You shouldn't have problems after doing that.
I Also noticed in ADW if I installed a backup configuration within ADW I ran into this problem. If I loaded my widgets after re-loading ADW I did not run into this problem. Caelan's post is also spot on!
I just tried doing that and it came back up as "Problem Loading Widget". I'm using romracer's CWM. Would that make a difference? Should I flash tenfar's? Also, when it boots it seems to almost freeze for a second as my internal storage and sd card are being mounted and then I can slide the bar to unlock.

Fix permissions, reboot, then set up widgets again if you lose them. You shouldn't have any more problems unless you flash another ROM, and possibly another kernel.
Then just do the same thing again if you happen to do that.
This is probably stupid, but you don't have the Widgets installed on the sdcard do ya?
No I have nothing installed to SD. I just tried to fix my permissions and it didn't work CaelanT. They still don't show on a reboot. If I reflash my Gobstopper or another ROM would that work? Should I try fixing the permissions with tenfar's CWM instead of romracer's? Oh and there's a little vibration I feel when the phone boots up right before it displays the lockscreen. Is that normal?
UPDATE: I just noticed that every time I reboot my appwidgets.xml file gets reset!! Please someone help, nothing seems to be working...

Same problem here and only after faux's kernel...I tried all the fixes (fix permissions, wipe cache first before flashing kernel) and the only the thing that worked is to go back to the stock kernel.
Oh man, you may be on to something because EVERYTHING was working fine before last night when I flashed faux123's OC kernel. I'm gonna try and go back to stock and see. Thanks man!
Holy hell that worked!! Back on stock kernel and they are loading fine! I knew it had to be one of the modifications I recently did to my phone and it was the kernel after all. Thanks again!!
P.S. Show we contact faux123 and let him know that his kernel causes widget loading on boot issues?

Ok perfect then I'll just wait for his next version and hope that fixes the problem. I need his kernel to flash ROM's since I'm on a international phone. It's weird saying that since I'm just in Canada...

No problem man....yeah I've made some comments on the the kernel thread about the issue. Hopefully it gets fixed in an updated version.
in the kernel thread (dev) faux is asking INTL users about this issue, for INTL users on his 1.6 unified kernel. some report the widget issue, others do not. its the kernel causing. I am using unified OC 1.6 kernel and am lucky enough to have no issues, and WAY better batter life then stock kernel.
I also encountered this issue, however I don't have an international version of the Atrix.
Using 2.3.4 (pudding version for AT&T) with Alien ROM #4 and faux123's 1.6unified kernel.
Also using Launcher Pro.... I just reinstalled everything after doing a hard reset to try and isolate the problem, and it did occur after the kernel flash.
Same problem here, luckily I just reboot my phone few time a month..(why do I need a reboot, anyways?)
The widget is left blank white with Problem loading widget warning..
I'm not using an INT Atrix, only AT&T (I don't know if there's any other Atrix version) using faux123 1.6, piecrust, romracer cwm ..
any luck, guys?
would there be an update of 1.8 of faux?
I think I'm going partially nuts over this problem. I have tried every thing mentioned in any post. Fix permissions with different CWM's.
I thought was going to win today today when I formatted everything, installed gobstopper 2.3.4 w/ deodex update then setting up my screens with ADW it glitched and would go to the screen preview whenever I touched the screen. a reboot and those damn black boxes are all over the place.
Order of operations:
- format internal/external
- factory reset
- fastboot flashed tenfars CWM which wouldn't mount the internal sd so I couldn't flash
- fastboot erase/flash romracers CWM
- installed Gobstopper 2.3.4
- reboot and used it for an hour or so to let it level out
- installed the deodex update
- reboot and another hour of use with a bunch of reboots to make sure everything was cool (it was)
- used Diviances EXT4 User Journal script
- used it for a few more hours without issue
- installed ADW Ex and while setting up my screens it glitches and goes to the screen preview with every touch.
- reboot... no widgets with a string of expletives
so now what...
Same problem here. I am using latest Aura Rom with latest faux Kernel for International users.
I did everything: Wiped cache, reseted factory, installed rom again, changed kernel to older versions, stock versions, fixed permissions and always lose my widgets configs after a reboot.

[Q] Root troubles

Alright, i have run into a problem.
I bricked my phone a while back so i flashed back to stock through ODIN. I used z4 root the first time i flashed so i used it again and everything seemed fine. i installed rom manager TB and everything was working fine. THEN, i flashed CyanogenMod- Trigger Redux build 17 through recovery.
Everything seemed fine at first, superuser was installed and i could grant permissions, CWMrecovery was working and everything was great.. but then...idk hooowwww, but busybox just didnt work and it said i wasnt rooted. TB stopped working. and all my other root needed apps didnt work because BusyBox wasnt running because of my missing root.
but recovery still works, superuser still works and gives me super user rights, and my rom still runs perfectly so ive been avoiding asking questions til now.
i heard to try fixing permissions and still no go. and z4 root wont work now (of course)
So i guess my question is: whats going on? do i have a bad root, did i not root completely, should i reroo?(if so, what method) what should i do?
If anyone knows what i should/could do please let me know.
Sorry for the noobness..
i also need some kernel info, but that can wait
Android version:
2.3.5
Kernel version:
2.6.35.7
Mod version:
CyonogenMod-Trigger Redux-build-17
try re-rooting with superonelick(latest version)
Flash the latest trigger. No data should be lost if you are running it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156123
If the problem persists (it won't) then download busybox from the market.
Worst case, use my noob guide to Odin and flash trigger.... 15 minutes tops
Oh, drhonks kernel, Bali is amazing with trigger
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1181167
Thanks! I will give that a try tomorrow!
And I've looked at Bali and heard good things. Could I flash it without re-flashing trigger and "being rooted"
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yes, but you need to update trigger. It doesn't wipe.
Alriiiight
Once again, Thank you!

Rooted but no root access

Hey guys i'm trying to search with tapatalk but it doesn't work, anyhow I just rooted my gfs phone with revolutionary flashed Su installed a custom ROM, but Su keeps force closing even after update it seems like only half the time i'm able obtain root, everything was wiped prior installing the ROM any suggestions? Thx
Rooted S-OFF
Radio-MR3 (802w)
Ging3R3DTh3oRY 6.2
V6 supercharge script
Extreme undervolted
O.C @ 1.5 ghz gov. Lag free
Ziggys infected kernel
Bolted to the max =)
Use recovery to fix permissions, worth a try. Question why use an outdated discontinued ROM, flash something that is current and will get updates such as BAMF. If you like ziggy I suggest Son of a Bliss new 3.5 sense perfect for a girl based on HTC Bliss. And requires special kernel to work so search forum but i use imo test 3.8
If I helped you in any way please use the thank you button.
Superuser has been having fc issues the past couple days. I had to remove the updates back to version 3.0 in order to fix mine. Some people had luck with just clearing the app data. worst case you could completely uninstall and download a stable version to the Sd card and install from recovery.

hey guys thx for answering, i will try the fix permsission tomorrow, hopefully that works. thanks again much appreciated.

Milestone x2 MIUI Camcorder

I have been running MIUI on an x2 for a few days and I went to use my Camcorder and it crashes. I tried several different ones and it just keeps failing. It starts to record and then does a FC. I downloaded different cameras and they do the same thing. I even tried some different once through downloading the Apks from this device and from the Atrix.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Probably a silly question but did u manually do a reboot, or go into applications and clear the catch and data. Also when you installed the miui did u do the three wipes first?
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA
Lol good question. I have done these. I can try to reflash it?
Sent from my Milestone X2 using XDA
Lol, sorry if that was obvious but I know I usually over look the easy stuff. I have only ever had these problems when I didn't wipe the data and catch after I flashed
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA
I am going to try to do that. Thank you for trying though.
No prob hope u get it
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA
From what I have been able to read its something to do with permission settings for the camcorder. If I can just get help how to change this to the proper settings that would be great!!
This is a bug that has been with the rom since the beginning.
I hope you find a workaround.
If you follow Aceoyame on twitter you can see his progress on the next release based on Dragonkillerz work on cm9. Some are saying this summer, just in time to take some video
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA
lol, Yeah from what I have been reading I think its about the permissions. But I am trying to figure out exactly what file.
I wanted to give an update. Talked with Ace and he said there will be an update out to fix this sometime in the next week. Great news!

That is great news. Good on ya mate.

I got tired of the camcorder not working and wanted to switch roms.
To make a long story short, I am back on MIUI beta and the camcorder seems to be...
working now!
What I did (or what I can remember I did, because you know how it goes SBF'ing, flashing roms, and clearing caches over and over again)
Booted into BSR and made back-up of the MIUI setup I was running (with camcorder not working)
SBF'd to 2.3.4 kernel factory reset / cleared cache and dalvik cache
*did not root yet*
rebooted into stock recovery and flashed 2.3.5 kernel.
Then did Zerg Rush Root method.
Installed BSR(not the cm7 version) the original.
Booted into BSR and factory reset / cleared cache and dalvik again...
Flashed Eclipse 2.2 custom rom.
Booted into op system / skipped everything / got to homescreen checked wifi to see error when trying to toggle on/off.
Got pissed, took a drink of a nice northwest local IPA and said Im going back to MIUI and Im doing it with 2.3.5 kernel installed.
This is where I got a little fuzzy... but I think this is what I did...
Did a operating system factory reset (just internal sd card)
Booted back into op system I think I had to re-install BSR (original)
Booted into BSR and restored my latest backed up MIUI.
When I got back to MIUI I noticed WIFI was working and when I went to Camera APP switched to video it didnt FC.
Instead it recorded a 25 second video with no problems. I have been playing with it ever since with no problems.
I hope this may help you in your quest to get camcorder in MIUI.
