I rooted my P500 (2.3.3) moths agoo and installed Superuser, it worked correct with Titanium Backup, ES File Explorer etc.
Now Superuser does not work correct anymore. Everything seems normal, apps do ask for rootrights and when Superuser prompt with the question for rootrights it looks normal (even in the Superuser logfile) BUT all applications wich asked for root don't work anymore.
I tried to remove Superuser but it is a "system app", for that I need rootrights ..... so I even cannot browse to the /system/app folder.
Is there a way to uninstall Superuser without totally wipe my phone?
Thanx for thinking with me.

Hi all,
after installing option 4 of S3 Toolkit V2, superuser app installed. Then I decided to flash CF-Root-SGS3-v6.3 via Odin. Everything fine so far but... now I have both superuser and superSU installed (superuser has only one entry: superSU ;-)).
For I like superSU more, I'm looking to get supertuser uninstalled, but no luck so far ... no "disable" or uninstall function in superuser, tried to get it done by "chuck norris" @Titanium, but superuser can't be found or be deinstalled by TB.
Any hints w/o having to "go back stock" and flash CF-Root-SGS3-v6.3 again?
TIA
Uli
delete it from system/app folder manually
THX, that was I was looking for... a hint like "can be deleted safely"... deleted and gone after I got my explorer "superusered" and remounted /system writeable ;-)
i want to switch from super user to super su. Just because i think it looks better with ics. So what i did was download super user from play store, and open it. I granted it access and let it update its binary. Now super su grants all my apps access. So the next logical step i thought would be to uninstall the regular super user. but i cant find it in titanium backup? (i search for superuser, super, user and neither super su nor superuser come up)
Also once i manage to get the regular superuser removed i would have to move the super su to system apps via titanium right?
You ever come right with this bud? Also can't remove superuser app from foxhound Rom. Deleted it from system/app using root explorer but it comes back after reboot.

1. Install SuperSu from Play and update binaries. Make sure it achieves root.
2. Delete Superuser.apk from system/app using a root file manager.
3. Install Superuser from Play.
4. Uninstall Superuser thru Play.
5. Reboot phone.
No more Superuser and SuperSU should retain root functionality.
cheers mate. Updated to the latest foxhound and superuser went away. Having this issue on a buddies phone so will try your method this weekend and give feedback.
Appreciate the response.

I was successfully rooted and decided i wanted to go back to stock, so i unrooted. I never altered the ROM, just wanted root for the purpose of Hotspot. However, now that i went back to stock, superuser is still showing in my apps and will not delete no matter what methods i try. I did a factory reset and it did not help. I cannot even get my phone to Re-root or do any over the air updates. I am stuck. My phone works perfectly but i would like to update my software AND remove the superuser app. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!
same thing happened to me try fixing the root then delete superuser.apk in Root Explorer.
AW: [Q] HELP!!!! Cant get back to stock or reroot!

hsd-pilot, i uninstalled the updates. Went to sys/apps but it will not delete because it says file is read only.
If your using Root Explorer there should be a button top right where you can change the permissions for that folder unsetting the read only
Hi,
Please help, I did rsd, flashed retail.en.EU, then did OTA from SD. Everything works great, but I lost my root. (Voodoo keeper didnt worked somehow). Voodoo shows that: su installed - YES, device rooted - YES, root permission granted - NO, system supports root protection - YES, protected SU copy available - NO. Only button I can hit in voodoo is "protect root" and then it tells "root su protected". But the thing is that Superuser does not allow (not even asks) any superuser permission to no apps. And every other root checker apps states that device isnt rooted. So I want to ask You guys:
Is there some way to restore the root I had? And if no:
How to delete/uninstall/remove Superuser from my system. Because SU was installed during the root process, and there is no option to uninstall it. Just disable, uninstall updates.
BIG THANKS!

At the main tab the superusers app, tap on the application, on the bottom , tap on the trash button, it will forget the superusers access you have granted
Lastly, try to open the app
Hit the 'thanks' button if it helps

Boot Menu Manager, you need root to install that recovery
So you must wait for the developers to make a root program so you can root your phone

Look man, superuser is ROOT. Either your phone is rooted or it is not. A rooted phone can run apps that require it like ClockworkMod ROM Manager, Titanium Backup, Greenify, Wireless Tether for Root Users, File managers like Root Explorer or ES File Manager if you want to be able to access the system areas of the phone. So far as I know, there is no "SuperUser of ClockworkMod". If your phone is rooted (You will see superuser or "Super SU" in your app drawer. Here is a free app from the playstore that will tell you if your phone is rooted or not.
Root Checker
Install it and use it to see if your phone is still rooted or if you lost root somehow. If you still have root, then when CWM starts, it will ask for root privileges and the first time it asks, you will be prompted to grant it, once, for a certain time period, or forever. For stuff like CWM, root file managers, and Titanium Backup, you always grant root forever and you will not be asked again until the app updates and requires you to okay granting root privileged or not, then you grand forever and leave it alone.
If you find out you do not have root or lost your root, then you have to root the phone and the procedure is different for different devices, versions, and ROMS. For that kind of help, you have to search for rooting <your particular device and android version number>
