Hi all; I just got a Galaxy Note and successfully installed CWM and rooted using DA_G Odin PDA method.
Could anyone help me with the following please?
1. Superuser app looks funny on screen, like its not formatted correctly some screen layers are on top of others... it looks messed up lol. It does actually work though(grants or denies root access).
2. Titanium Backup is complaining about my root access and how SU is not working correctly. Though if I grant it root access it does actually work correctly.
This seems to have started after a factory reset.

1) It always looks like this, has nothing to do with a factory reset. Install Super SU from the market if you don't like the look of Superuser.
2) Yes, this is how it works. Titanium Backup requires root to run. So that makes sense that it works correctly when you grant it root. So I am not sure I get the question.

Point 1- Yes did that, DA_G root method does not come with the superuser app. The superuser app literally looks messed up... from your reply your implying that's normal(or not)?
Point 2- When I start Titanium backup, it complains that my SU is messed up. If this is normal behavior for the Note, so be it, just checking
Moderators- I apologize if this thread does not belong in the general section, I would appreciate if it can be moved, if needed, thanks
When asking for SU acces at TB screen is the "remember" checked off? If it isnt thats why its always asking you. I had an issue like you and a simple reboot remedied it. If that doesnt help, remove and reinstall both apps from market again. Reboot and see if that fixes it.
The SU app does look weird on our phablets. But it works as expected.
Hey, Ok so i updated my Huawei u8650 to android 4.4.2 and something went wrong with my root. I can open superuser and it shows my binary and all that and it says im rooted but when i go to a app that requires root access like terminal emulator for example and i type in the command su. nothing happens it just goes to the next line. and i tried to mount my SD card partition in link2sd and it said that the script cant be created because its not allowed to su.
I thought it could be that superuser just wasn't allowing permissions but i open superuser and there's no apps, no logs or anything. I checked my settings and they're all fine and i even tried to use SuperSU instead and i still got the same thing. There's no prompt to allow access either. I don't know if the apps are just not trying to get root access or what? No app can get root permission and i need to get this fixed so i can fix some bugs on the rom. Please Help.
Thanks to all who attempt or do help. Ill be sure to hit thanks for u.

i rooted by SRSroot first then first got the error then i unrooted and re-rooted by using the kingo root method but still received the same error. they are both windows programs u can run for root on multiple devices. They use USB debugging to root then device reboots and bam your rooted.
i used those methods because i tried to just flash the binary files through cwm recovery and it never actually installed into system. The two methods above installed binary and rooted my device but i cant give root access to any apps including superuser or supersu.
If anyone can help me with this it would be appreciated because i hit a wall and don't know what to do. No apps can get root permissions and i cant fix my play store, WiFi, speakers or theme chooser until the root is properly working because the methods to fix those bugs need root to function. so please if anyone has knowledge or any idea why i have root but cant get access please help me out.

If there is a custom recovery available for your device I would recommend flashing that and then flashing the latest SuperSU.zip package in recovery. Part of the problem is the orginal Superuser (by ChainsDD) while excellent at the time is now extremely outdated and no longer really be maintained, as a result make sure you flash a Superuser package compatible with Android 4.4.2 such as the latest version of SuperSU.

try root after factory reset
I have already given root access to the app Clean Master. Under the 'Autostart Manager' page, I tried to remove apps that autostart by itself. However, the app pop out a message indicating 'Failed to Grant Root' and reminded me to grant root access.
I went back to the superuser app, it was indicated that root access has been granted.
Any way to solve this problem?
I have been having this same issue on rooted stock gs4. It's temperamental when it comes to root I've noticed. One day I was able to turn it app off of auto start and when I installed a new app it wouldn't let me do it and su says I'm granted
I'm experiencing the same issues. Auto Start Manager is the only feature that has this issue.

I always face this issue also, what I do as a temporary fix is, go to the SuperSU app, then "Forget" Clean Master, open Clean Master and try to disable an app from Auto starting, grant root and the app will be disabled I hope it works for you too
I am glad I am not the only one having this issue. I recently updated an app via the play store and clean master told me it was auto starting. I tried to block it, but it keeps telling me root access failed and to grant it. Well I've granted it root 18 times now and it still says root failed. I have tried everything to get it to work...clear logs, tell superSU to forget clean master, give it global default, etc. Nothing seems to work and it's pissing me off.
Unfortunately this does not work for me.
I have granted root access according to SuperSU Pro however when trying to stop autostarting apps in Clean Master it reminds me to allow access.
I even get a popup massage from SU stating that the app got granted root access.
Whats happening here? Does anyone have a work around?
Deleting Cleanmaster in SuperSU doesnt help. It is always the same unfortunately.
Best Regards
J
I too also have problems with the autostart function in Clean Master on my Optimus Zone II
First of all, if you've root then you shouldn't use clean master. That's so naive.
About the permissions. Even after root your system partition stays in read only mode. I'm guessing this okay. You should check that out first.

Ok, (I know Im gunna reget this), but why?, in your option, should Clean Master NOT be used, since it need so many "root" functions in order to work? Ive used it for years. Rooted or no, (mostly rooted), and why do all the "autostart" apks, (ROM Toolbox, Autostarts, Autostart Manager,etc) work just fine. I've tryied it with r-w on system on, sooooo....next...?

I can't argue over this. Best options for you 1. Root Cleaner (high priority) 2. SD Maid Pro (medium priority)
See the difference yourself.

Has anyone figured out what the issue is here? It worked just fine on cm12 but stock Lilli nope. Root issues for sure it must have something to do with system partition. Has anyone fixed this issue?

I just rooted my s6 edge and was having the same issue with 2.46. Luckily when I updated to 2.49, I was unable to block the autostartup apps.
I'm currently rooted and restoring my apps, however it seems like with each new version of Android the external SD gets trickier and trickier. A lot of apps these days use the round about method of having you choose the card to write to via the file manager, unfortunately not all apps do this and one of them looks to be the ever popular Tasker. am I missing the option or am I screwed and have to rewrite all my tasks to write to the internal storage?
another issue is with Secure Settings mainly used in conjunction with Tasker... when I start it up it fails to recognize su and never prompts me via SuperSU for permissions to grant. anyone have any workarounds or fix for this?
lastly, is BusyBox still usable under Marshmallow? i loaded it up and everything seemed fine, but after a reboot Google Play Services, Amazon, Youtube and some others kept crashing.
My observations:
MyProfiles Pro not able to turn data ON/OFF with ROOT permissions even if the root permission is there for the app.
One Power Guard battery app works, but cannot tweak the profiles, it says root needed. I seriously doubt if it really is working.

what I've realized is that SuperSU is running in systemless mode, which is causing some issues for outdated apps that were hardcoded to find 'su' in /system. some workarounds are putting a dummy file named su in /system or getting SuperSU to run in /system.

I learned this the hard way in updating from LP to MM; do NOT restore your apps from a backup under LP. I did that, and was having nothing but issue after issue. Best bet, backup everything not an app, go back to the google play store, and reinstall everything from there. Any apk's you had you installed, install them fresh. I was literally to the point of shipping the phone back to T-Mobile and going to an S7 it was such a pain in the neck. After I learned after the 4th factory reset from LG Bridge, I've never had any issues since.

Whenever you do a clean fresh flash Rom at the setup most rooms let you restore all your previous apps from google, no need to go to the play store it does it automatic. If you made a backup just restore the data.

I have witnessed this, mainly with Google apps. after restoring the app with data the app would randomly crash... removing the app and installing it from Google fixes it, but I have not experienced this with non-Google apps. I'll keep this in mind the next go around when restoring my stuff.

you won't be able to change SuperSU to be in systemless mode within SuperSU... look here for the non-systemless root method that you'll need to flash in TWRP. realize that if you do this flash that it most likely will break Android Pay. not sure if you need to mount /system as rw in Root Browser before you can create files there or if Root Browser does it for you automatically?

Sent from my LG-H901 using XDA-Developers mobile app
after doing some research and from my understanding, the bad news is that it looks like it's up to devs to add the feature of writing to the external SD via the Storage Access Framework (SAF). unfortunately it doesn't look like an easy task, as the developer of Tasker mentioned that he won't be implementing this since the number of external SD users are far and few =( and would revisit it if that number changes.
the good news for those of us smart and brave enough to root our devices, this is solvable via editing packages.xml and adding in one line for each app you want to "fix". this is documented here

I don't want to break stuff like Android Pay though I am not using it right now.
And about putting the file, in ROM Toolbox it says rwxr-xr-x for /system. Doesn't that mean write is there?

I believe non-systemless root only breaks Android Pay because of the way Android Pay is designed, as I believe it needs /system to be "pure". just want you to know that I have not done anything and have left everything as is, systemless root. seems like the only app I had that needed root was Secure Settings, which doesn't look like it will ever be updated anytime soon so I'm trying to ween myself away from that and do everything via Tasker without that plugin. as for you, if you're lucky, write to the apps you're having issues with and have them update it for systemless root. the issue is that their apps were looking for root specifically in /system, but with systemless root the su binary is now in /su/bin. as for putting a dummy su file in /system, I'm not entirely sure that would make your apps work and if it would break Android Pay if you did so. regardless, it doesn't hurt to try as you can simply remove the dummy su file to revert back to systemless. I believe those permissions you've listed for /system does does mean it can be written to, however it has to also be mounted as rw. check that via a terminal by issuing "mount | grep /system". you will probably see a ro in parenthesis or simply try to put a file in there.

OK, so here is it: I was able to mount /system as rw with the terminal emulator in ROM toolbox and then create a dummy file named su. Rebooted the phone, both the apps still fail. I will write to the developers. For the time being, I am OK turning data on/off manually along with using MyProfiles for other things. And for the One Power Guard, I believe freezing many of the T-Mobile and LG junk using Titanium and having SetCPU with a little bit under-clocking have already made the battery better. So I can wait. Am also evaluating Craig's Root Battery App instead of OPG. Thank you anyways.
Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925W8 and had SuperSU root access and XPosed Framework installed. I am now attempting to remove all of it so that I can pass Google's safetynet helper test. I have tried numerous things, but the safetynet result is always:
SafetyNet Request: Success
Response Validation: Success
CTS Profile Match: False
I first attempted to remove Root by clicking "Completely remove root" within SuperSU. After doing this, Response Validation was false, which, after doing some research, I learned was caused by XPosed Framework. I then boot into TWRP recovery and flash the Xposed uninstaller. This causes my phone to boot loop, forcing me to restore a NAND backup to before I removed anything. I then try to flash the XPosed Uninstaller BEFORE removing root access and it runs successfully. After this, I use SuperSU to completely remove all root, which also runs successfully then give the phone a reboot removing the app entirely. This is when I receive the SafetyNet Helper response above stating CTS Profile match is false. I'm not sure how to fix this error.
Any suggestions would be very appreciated! Thank you
Edit: I have no idea why this thread appeared twice...sorry I can't seem to delete one of them
Er.. Any ideas?
Is this to play PokemonGo? If so there's a mod with instructions. Unless that's what you're trying to do...you might need to flash factory images if Xposed is stuck. Backup your pictures and stuff and go back to stock then use that mod. It works well but no Xposed which is a good thing IMO!

Hi, thanks so much for replying! Yes..it is for pokemon go. Is the mod you're talking about the Magisk one? If so, that is what I originally wanted to do, but flashing Magisk caused my phone to be stuck in a bootloop and forced me to flash a NAND Backup. This was after first flashing the xposed uninstaller and uninstalling SuperSU. So I gave up on root...truth be told I don't use the root apps too much anyway so it isnt a big loss for me. I'm also already on Stock firmware so I'm not sure why I can't pass the SafetyNet Test. Do I have any other options than wiping my phone clean?

Hi, thanks so much for replying! Yes..it is for pokemon go. Is the mod you're talking about the Magisk one?

Well only data will be gone you need a full system wipe....
Or go delete the su files...use file manager to find them but just delete in recovery using TWRP with the location you searched..I don't think you can search in recovery without the terminal but you can do it all in recovery.
or if you completely flash factory image you can just not root
Hope this helps!

Hello, I attempted to use ES File Explorer to search both the system/bin directory and the system/xbin directories. system/bin does not have the "busybox" or "su" files in them, so I assume they were removed when I uninstalled SuperSU. /system/xbin however does have these two files, but I am unable to delete them. I get the error "Cannot delete file". I'm guessing this is because I've already unrooted?
I then opened the terminal in my TWRP Recovery, however when changing directories into the system folder, the terminal shows that it is empty. when using ls -la, only two files are there, both called root and neither can be opened. rm -r /system/xbin/busybox does nothing either, it claims there's no such directory. Any suggestions? or just wipe?
