Rooted my Motorola Atrix 4G using PetesMotorolaRootTools v1.07 and found that it wasn't much use for me.
When I tried using the barclays mobile banking app, I got the error that my phone was rooted so I couldn't use it.
I tried to factory reset my phone to unroot it but still couldn't use the app.
I tried to unroot using the same PetesMotorolaRootTools v1.07 but same result.
I tried flashing an SBF of the original stock using RSDlite but again, same story.
I've typed in 'su' into the android terminal emulator and it was not found! And I've checked with the root checker basic app whether my phone is rooted and it says it isn't!
I've also tried uninstalled and re-instaling the app but still no good.
I have no idea what to do
System version: 45.31.2.MB860.T-Mobile.en.GB
Android Version: 2.3.4
Build number: 4.5.2A-74_OLE-31.2
SBF I used: 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31.2-release-keys-signed-T-Mobile-GB.sbf
Any help given will be appreciated, thanks
Have you tried root checker from play store to see if you're phone is in fact rooted? I'm sure you can download su from market. If you're able to, try denying root access to that app.

Yeah I've checked multiple times using that app but it always says I'm not rooted!
How do you deny root access to that specific app? Not sure how to do that
Try rooting again, then install SuperSU from gplay. Then in SuperSU under Settings select Full Unroot.

I rooted my fascinate with z4root. Then, I unrooted. Then, I noticed that my superuser was still there. I tried to delete it but couldn't. Then, I heard that u can delete it by rooting, so I tried to root it again. But for some reason, z4 keeps saying, you already have the such binary. Unable to root. I then tried to root using other programs on my computer with one click root program. That kept saying, unable to root device. Please help me delete the su or reroot my phone.
A few simple commands with an app called terminal emulator, free in market. Search YouTube for "fascinate remove root" for the commands

You can also set to stock using Odin. There is also a way to delete the root files using root explorer if you still have root access but I'm guessing not as that happened to be after the last update.

I rooted using the method here: [04/Jan][ROOTING/UNROOTING] DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v4.0](zergRush Exploit) - xda-developers
I was a Samsung Fascinate owner so this is not my first time rooting. Last night I purchased a video from the market and could not watch it bc I was rooted. Instead of downloading the apk which is supposed to work around this, I decided I would rather unroot. My purpose for rooting was to use free wifi tether which I hadn't gotten to work anyway.
So I used the unroot method found above and it does restart my phone but the Superuser app is still in my app drawer. I tried unrooting twice more: didn't work. So I tried to root again using the above process but unlike my first time where I received a conformation message, I received nothing and the cmd prompt actually closed.
Now, I have the superuser app in the drawer. I tried to use screenshot & a wifi tether app. They both told me I needed to be rooted to use them. I downloaded Linda file manager and looked in the system/apps and did not see superuser.apk there.
I found this and tried it as well: How to Unroot Droid Razr! | DroidRazrRoot.com. It did not help. At this point, I have no idea what to do.
Thanks in advance for your help!

You have the updated su from market, it doesn't mean you are still rooted, as your own tests have proved. Look in My Apps and uninstall the updated su. You're good.
That was exactly it! Thank you SO much!

Hello. I have rooted my Galaxy SII v 2.3.6 on Gingerbread build EL29 from sprint using the SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED_NODATA-OneClick method from odin found in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1433101 . My super user app was working fine until I accidentally moved it using a file explorer. The super user apk is in my systems/app folder but I can no longer access the program and none of my super user apps work. When I have tried to reroot the phone the oneclick method completes and says things went as planned, but no apk and no root access is available. Can someone please help me restore my root access. Thanks in advance, and apologies if I am in the wrong forum.
Try downloading superuser from the Play Store. Delete the superuser you already have beforehand though.

install from play store did not work
Thank you for the suggestion. Two issues, when I go to the store it says the app is already installed. Also when I try to delete the existing version, I get a permissions denied message. I am still stuck here.

Try to reroot by flashing a rooted kernel, rather than SOC.

Make sure when trying to delete, mount on root explorer should be r/w not r/o
Fixed it
Thanks very much. I used the [e4gtauto-sfx.exe] from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728 to unroot and clean up any unneeded files from the phone then I went back to the odin root and now I have restored root access. Thanks again.
Hi. I have a Lenovo A7600-F tablet, and I've been trying to root it. I've heard that iRoot is the best way to root this device, so that's what I did. I went ahead and installed the APK, ran it, and clicked root. It said that it has rooted successfully, so I rebooted, and when I enter iRoot again it says I'm not rooted. However, the Superuser app is still there, and cannot be uninstalled. I click root a second time, and the Superuser app disappears. I reboot, and the Superuser app is back again and iRoot still says I'm not rooted. I installed some root apps and this is the output:
iRoot - Not rooted
Superuser - Not rooted
Root Checker Basic - Not rooted
Some other root checker - Rooted
Root Browser - Apparently rooted
Terminal Emulator - Running the command 'su' puts the number 255 before the typing space
Got Root? -
SU Exists: True
Version: 16 com.mgyun.shua.su
Root Obtained: False
I'm confused. Am I rooted? If I'm not, how do I remove the Superuser app?
By the way, when I look in my device's system files, I can see /system/app/irootsu.apk and /system/bin/su.
halp.

Oh ok. Have you tried other root methods? And sadly you can't or at least shouldn't be able to remove the superuser app
Sent from my Nexus 5
Try installing Chainfire's super su and check again i think you might not have the correct super user app installed when using iroot.
just search the playstore for it
Can you unroot through your Superuser app? If you can, try to reroot using a different method.

same problem here with my MT6582-V1
you speak truly that i shouldnot be able to get rid off this app "irootsu.apk"
while the device is not properly rooted !
hate this.
Well, i want to know that, if it is rooted or not.
I used root checker but it says "Root is nor properly installed" ... it means that is not rooted?
Than kyou!

It is not rooted. Any app that requires root privilege will not be functional.
That being said, there are known methods to "root" Remix OS. A "systemless" method is to be found elsewhere in this forum.

Android apps can't get root access without modifying the RemixOS installation, however there is a command prompt with root access that you can enable in the experimental options part of the settings app. Once enabled you can press Alt+F1 to get to it, and Alt+F7 to get back to the desktop. It's not as useful as full root access, but it works if you just want to remove system files or disable some apps that you can't disable using the settings app.

There are a couple options on the forum that are available already pre-rooted, and there are also threads with instructions on how to root it yourself. :good:
Thank you guys for the answers!
i want it to not be rooted.
So if it is not rooted from the begining, then better.
