I've tried flashing superuser.zip, etc and searched everywhere. Still can't figure out how to get root access.
Any help would be appreciated.
Looking at the known bugs, it says to set SuperSU to allow instead of prompt.

I see you double posted...
That comes already rooted...
As stated in the OP on the ROM:
Bug List
Bt does not connect to phone audio but does connect to media audio
VVM unsupported format
SuperSU - go into su settings and change prompt to allow
Thanks for the help. Got it working.

I rooted my phone using Gingerbreak, I then ran the GladEnabler script and gave it all the appropriate permissions through superuser. But I don't see an option to load unknown sources or am unaware of how I can enable that feature so I can try to sideload. Am I missing something? I'm new to the Android experience, long time iPhone user who just made the switch this week.
Go to settings then applications. You should see the setting enabled right at the top.

First, thank you - I'm a rooting newb - but have rooted many of my devices in the past. I own the Sprint HTC Evo 4G LTE and was one of those users that was having many data connect/disconnect & latency issues. I rooted the phone after buying to try several fixes - none worked.
I then installed the upgrade - and am now on 1.22.651.3 71ORD.
My problem is I've tried to remove the SuperSU app using the FULL UNROOT option but it fails and I am unable to remove the app.
Is there a fix for this?
Many thanks!

I did the same thing, hoping that "survival" mode in SuperSU would help me out and keep me rooted anyway.
I had rooted my phone because I couldn't get into Google Wallet to clear settings, to run the HTC bootloader unlock without killing my NFC secure element. I read about editing the build.prop file, but decided that wasn't the route for me.
I can't uninstall SuperSU now. I believe "survival" mode tricks the phone into thinking it's a system level app, so there's no way to get it off if it doesn't maintain root privileges.
I'm just waiting now for regaw to update his simplified HTC bootloader unlock program to work with the new **.3 update.
No real issues having it on the phone. It'll come off when I get the bootloader unlocked and flash a new rom.
I'm curious as to why you guys are trying to remove supersu?

Well I was trying to RUU last night and had to relock my bootloader. Upon doing so, SuperSU was unable to open as it needed to update binary and stayed on the "installing...." screen. So I haved tried all I could to go about unrooting and removing SuperSU as well for this particular reason so I'm assuming maybe these two are possibly in the same boat?
Looks like its time to use root explorer to remove the APK for superuser, if the normal uninstall didn't work?

I'd love to know how to do this? Quite the newb here. To answer the previous question as to why I'd want to remove SU - it's rather simple - the update to the phone made it so that SU doesn't work anymore and thus just wanting to remove it so as to try again when the new update is cracked (assuming it isn't - but I've been away for a week).
How to remove the SU (apk) and (bin) files...
Hello ALL,
I know this is an old post...but I'm just submitting this in case no one found a way to remove the SU thingy...
I'm a noob too...but i managed to remove SU from my phone.....here's how..
- Download and Install ES FILE EXPLORER from Google play store
- Open the app and press MENU
- Scroll down you will see -> Root Explorer
- Switch all the dots on the right side (RW)
- Then click OK and exit MENU by pressing on ....uhhhh....MENU
- Now on top you will see a /
- Click on it and navigate to 'system -> bin
- look for the SU file and hold and select it to delete (if its not there, no worries)
- Go back to the previous page and select the folder named XBIN and look for the SU file and delete it
- go back again and now go to the APP folder and look for SU Apk file and delete it (same way - hold and select and delete)
- Finally on top there is a drop-down menu where you can select DEVICE as search criteria, select it and do a search (at the bottom)
- type SU and you will see another .APK file
- Select and delete
That should do it....Reboot your phone...and Voila!
Well it worked for me...Lemme know it this helped (everyone)
Hi!
Can someone please help?
I, too, am trying to remove the SuperSU. According to root checker, my device (Xperia C3 Android 5.1.1) is rooted. SuperSU is a system app (no clue how that happened).
I tried the method mentioned by thegreatbigmouth. However, when I turn on the "Root Explorer" option, I get a popup saying "Sorry, this feature can't work on this device".
Can anyone help me unroot my device and remove SuperSU?
I noticed my phone attempting to do two OTA downloads this morning. As I normally do I brought up a terminal window to go into /cache to get an idea of what the OTA is, the size, make a copy, delete, etc. but found root access was broken. Attempting to do su' will just hang and not complete even though Superuser prompts for permission.
Two otas? Have you tried reflashing the rom or maybe even reflash superuser?

The point is Verizon has managed to disable root access without accepting the install the OTA update(s). Restoring root access is a non-issue.
So, what you are saying is that you believe Verizon loaded software onto your phone to break root without you accepting it? Did you have any settings enabled to auto check for updates?
«does your phone do that?»
This is why you should always rename the otacerts file to otacerts.bak.

Anyone else using Cerberus? When i change some settings the phone reboots. It also never takes a pic on incorrect password on lockscreen.
I use cerebrus on my unlocked unrooted HTC One. Works perfectly, flawlessly,without any crashes
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
If you're using stock kernel then yes, it will reboot on settings save. This happens because Cerberus writes the settings to an xml file in /system/etc so that it can still function even after a factory reset (which wipes data but not system.)
Problem is the stock kernel blocks remount rw and writes to the system partition, thus the reboot.
You'll need to find a custom kernel with rw enabled.
I am running complete stock. Cerebrus works perfectly without any reboots. It even sends me an email of the person as soon as someone enters a wrong unlock code
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
No problems here with Cerberus on my H1. Running ARHD 7.3 though with teaMSeven kernel.
Maybe I'll install the flash zip style one.

You can do that from within the app, but you want to make sure you reset the dial code to something you remember too.

I've read that this worked for someone, I tried it, but sill nothing....
1. uncheck connection optimizer.....
2. uninstall Wi-Fi Direct 2.0.0....with titanium backup app

Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated....

I hope crawrj can do the native hotspot mod for us, just like he did it for the s3, s4 & note 2 in the past.
Ok...so I purchased the Wifi Router from the Play store....figured what the heck...it's only $1.95....and ....................................now I have free Wi-Fi tether on my Note 3.......just have to configure #3 to ad-hoc mode.....the only thing that I don't like is...........the fact that the network is open...I tried to configure in different kinds of ways...but I doesn't work.
O'.....and another thing that I didn't like is........that fact that only my laptop can pick up the signal.....I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the connection doesn't even show up under settings......I've read it has something to do with it being setup as ad-hoc....
O' well.....I can live with it for now...it was only $1.95.....plus I can tether with my laptop anywhere....
Sorry about the ad hoc issues everyone is having. I only connect a laptop and desktop, so I didn't know about the problems with tablets and other phones.

both deodex and odex mj4 versions
ok. so you are right. im too lazy to make a flashable zip.
use a file explorer with root access.
set permissions for /system to r/w
copy file into system/app overwriting one already there.
if stock mj4 use odex
if have installed a deodex rom use deodex

So do I copy the "hackedmj4odexfifi.zip" and place it in the frame folder or do I rename it to "service.jar" and then copy it in there? After that, what do i do next? do i launch the built in wifi app,ect.. Thanks. Sorry I'm still new at all this..
Unzip and you will find two files, copy those to framework folder.

I used root browser and moved the files over. I kept the old ones and just renamed them. I rebooted as the instructions outlined... It kept the phone from being able to boot completely. It froze at the yellow Sprint screen. so... I don't recommend doing it, but that's just me.

I bet you didn't read the instructions.
If you rename the old files you must change the file extension also. DO NOT servicesbackup.jar . Your phone will loop.
Do services.jar.backup
Services.odex.backup
And all will be well with the world.

That would be exactly what I did wrong then, but now I am so freaked about it I dunno if I wannt try it again. I had the phone rooted using Kingo and had Wanam and Xposed installed all working. So I didnt have a recovery mode installed (TWRP nor CWM) I was afraid of tripping Knox. So I just wanted to change the files that way. I guess I did it wrong Now I think I am going to wait for a way to do it where I can root (Kingo Style), Wanam / Xposed installer, and then just have maybe an app that works for it (WiFi Tether used to work on my SG2). Im worried about changing the root files again, as well as adding a recovery.
Thanks for the heads up though!
