When I try to run clockwork mod from rom manager it tells me " an error occurred while attempting to run privaleged commands!" what is this supposed to mean?
I have the super user zip to install on my device I haven't ran a rom in a while though now so I have an older version of revolutionary.
How do I get clockwork mod installed so I can run the zip or is there an easier way to run the zip? When I get to fast boot and try to run recovery it boots to a red ! in a triangle.

Are you S-off?
You may not have full root.
Install Root Checker from the Play Store and see if you have root access.
If you're S-off, have full root, and have root access according to Root Checker...
Make sure your Superuser binaries are up-to-date.
Then install Busybox and smart install Busybox binaries.
See if that works.

Well, two days ago I decided to put ICS on my Amaze. Previous to ICS I was Rooted with S-ON, and Unlocked.
I followed the instructions on the Development section to install ICS on my unlocked, S-ON Amaze. However after I installed CWM, and flashed Superuser, Titanium Backup, or any other root app says I don't have root privileges.
From what I understood, once SU was flashed, the device would be rooted.
I used the All In One Kit to put the CWM Recovery, and flash the SU. I did HTC Steps to unlock the phone (which the AIO Kit helped also)
I tried looking for a solution or something before posting, but I couldn't find one in the 80+ pages of the ICS thread in the Development section.
Thanks in advance!
I initially had an issue flashing Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip (found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20992340&postcount=4) because I didn't toggle the signature setting in recovery. Perhaps it didn't flash correctly? Make sure it said it was successful at flashing the zip.
Flash it again.
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?
I realized that my tool didn't set the SU permissions. I have to fix that. Just flash the SU zip file and it'll be fine.

You sure can. Detailed instructions posted in development section. Basically you need to unlock bootloader through HTC, flash a custom recovery, load up the superuser zip, then flash it in your custom recovery. More details are given in other posts already.

Just going to throw this out there. I flashed superuser after installing ICS to get root. It works for most applications, but one app that it doesn't work with is LuckyPatcher (to get rid of those stupid ads in my other apps). For LuckyPatcher to work, I had to install superSU (can be found from the play store). It seems to be my default root app now.

Hi, I rooted my device with this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 and then unrooted. Now when I flash BB throught cwm it says it was installed but i dont have superuser and root access. How can i root my device again?
Thanks.
Try installing busybox and then Superuser or SuperSU apps from Google Play.
Once done, check root access with Root Checker (or similar) app.
Edit:
Or just flash one of compatible Chainfire CF-root kernel. You can also use his Triangle Away app to get rid of the warning triangle and flash counter.

Please make it clearer next time. You never mentioned you wanted to unroot again. Also you never mentioned you had tried cf-root.
To unroot, simply just flash stock firmware.
If Chainfire kernel doesn't root, you're obviously not following instructions properly. Suggest more reading.

Not sure mate,
Sure if you flash the cf-root kernel. Will take longer to ensure correct one and download than flash.
Just follow the guide exactly and you can't go wrong.
If you really want to root previous way, maybe post in that thread for more better advice.
Sorry.

Did this lot of times (with stock rom and cwm recovery) and it still stays the same, without superuser. In addition, now when i try to install superuser from the Market I get error 941 - what does it mean? Maybe I have problem with flashing archives? There is a way to check if I still can flash files?
Thanks a lot!
Try clearing market data in phone settings/applications/...... & sign in again
Have you also tried SuperSU app instead of Superuser?

thanks, I clear the market data and now I'm able to install Superuser, but when I open the SuperUser there are no applications in the list. SuperSU says "there is no SU binary installes and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem", guess it mean I don't have root access? I think that downloading applications from market won't solve the problem, it should be installed when I flashing BusyBox. As I wrote before, maybe I got a problem with flashing files? (it's worked for the first root and unroot)
Try flash this through CWM. Superuser version and binary maybe a little old, but if works, you can easily update via Google Play.
After instal, your app list inside will of course be empty, should be prompted when a app requests SU access the first time.
when i try to install it it says: "e: error in /sdcard/download/SuperUser-3-10-1.0.7... (status 0)
installaion aborted.
what does it mean?
Not sure, would have to Google.
If I was in your shoes, and previous rooting method fails..... go with either;
A) Chainfire CF-root kernel and then use Triangle Away app to reset counter & remove warning triangle
B) Backup and save to PC. Full wipe and use Odin and flash stock firmware. Root again as per original method

it's too complicated for me..

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
I found out that I have BusyBox 1.17.1 installed. I found it with the app "Root Check Pro". But I'm sure that I don't have a root access even thoght I have BusyBox installed. How can I remove it? "Root Check" says that the file is in "/system/xbin/busybox" and this information correct - I can see the file but can't remove it because I don't have root access. how can I uninstall it? or replace it?
* already tried install BusyBox & Superuser from the market, they don't do anything because I don't have root access :\
I attached pictures of BusyBox information and Root information. (from "Root Check")
Added some information... Still stuck without root but with busybox installed
So I did the HTC unlock after receiving my Asurion claim (1.19 Hboot) a couple months ago. I haven't messed around with it much because I've been busy irl. I installed TWRP, Fresh, and just recently the "deSensed ICS ~ Dialer, Tumblers & Apps! -Updated Mean4.4 & Goodies2.11!" theme. Now I've been thinking I'd really like to just flash CM10 now that it's starting to mature so I installed TB and it wasn't able to gain root access (tried a couple different SU apps). I checked several other apps and none were able to gain root (ES file explorer, Quick Boot, Root Explorer, etc). I originally thought that the issue was the fact I flashed Fresh over the stock rom after just wiping Cache but I just wiped everything (Cache, Dalvik, System, Factory Reset, in that order), flashed a newly downloaded Fresh rom, and downloaded TB and got the same "Root Access: Failed" error. I'm at a loss. I'm running Fresh, I have TWRP installed, but I have no root access. Any help would be appreciated.

try root checker basic from the playstore to confirm you are rooted but it doesn't make sense the you can have twrp and flash fresh without root
Sounds like your Su binaries may have got messed up. Try using only one Su and see if that works. You may need to flag Su in twrp

I had the SU that comes in Fresh installed and it wasn't working so last night I installed a different one from the market, that didn't work either, uninstalled. I tried updating binaries on one (couldn't find the option to do it on the other) and that worked fine but it failed to gain root.
Just now I fixed Permissions via TWRP, deleted the SU that comes with Fresh via TWRP, uninstalled and reinstalled the other SU with the same results.
Try going into su and check grant permissions automatically and make sure fastboot is unchecked.....see if that helps

Hit it twice and make it count.
Unlocked does not give you root. It enables you to install a Rom with root access or install superuser. If you are unlocked and have installed a custom Rom with root support, you should already have superuser in the app drawer. Update whatever superuser app you have to the newest, and reboot.

Hello!
My phone (Cherry Mobile Bubble Android 2.3.5) was rooted before through Mobogenie's One Click Root. I don't have any problem my apps gaining root access. But i can't do software update, so i thought that's because of being rooted. So I did permanent root at SuperSU settings, and I have successfully updated my phone. But when I rooted my phone again, I can't gain root access through SuperSu. It always shows "Installation failed". I do have an update zip file on my sd cards root. But to no avail.
Please help. I'm noob regarding on this.
You cant just install SuperSU and expect it to work. You need to use your 1 click tool again. Or another full rooting method.
When you unrooted the binaries that was root were deleted.

In addition, I already did uninstalling and re-installing superSU. And I have also tried to use Superuser or any other superuser app, but nothing happens. I already did a factory reset, but still no change.

I already did that. I've rooted it again through one click root, and it says i am rooted. But SuperSu says, installation failed. While superuser says, it can't gain root access.
I have lost root access before when I updated SuperSu, I can't remember what i did then. But i was able to get back root access.
If you have a custom recovery superSU has the option to flash the correct one manually.

Try Vroot, its another one click root method. I used it on my Note 3 and installed superSU afterwards. One downside is it's chinese, so its hard to read lol.
