[Q] Superuser not asking permission after rooting 4.1.2 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! All. After i rootin my Galaxy S3 i9300 using CF Auto root, super user was installed but not busybox. When i installed some apps that require root, super user does not prompt to ask for permission. I tried running SU Binary Updater but keeps failing to update. it keeps failing at Gaining root access. i tried using root checker to check root status & it says i have root. Can anyone help.

Anyone can help?

Having issues trying to root..

Hey guys.
I can't seem to get my SGS2 to root properly. I have tried with the CF root kernels and then use S2 Root and it says successful but nothing that requires root will work with root privileges.
Any suggestions?
I am using stock 4.0.3 and the kernel is CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5
Thanks.
Actually, this might help generate a response.
I have S2 Root'd the phone but I have CF Root on. I have SuperSU and CWM installed too but any app that requires root just keeps "root-looping" (asking for root - or, because i've already accepted it, I get a small popup saying this app is requiring root permissions or whatever it says).
None of the apps will then gain root access and forever rootloop until I reboot.
I hope this helps you in order for you to help me!
Nevermind, the problem was the kernel!

[Q] how to gain root privilege for samsung galaxy s4

Hi
I recently rooted my galaxy S4 using a guide from the internet. my s4 type is sph l720 and it has the kitkat update 4.4.2
i completed the rooting process and it was successful. the superuser app was installed, but no matter how many times I try to gain root access or privilege it does not allow me, and it says rooting access denied, for example i tried using game killer which was a huge disappointment, then i tried using GameCIH which was another disappointment. I tried many things and I looked everywhere but I did not find an answer. I do lack experience and i am not an expert in this, but I honestly tried a lot of stuff, I downloaded an app called root checker to confirm that I was rooted and the app confirmed it to me. I took two screen shots that my help with my issue
Same problem here..I tried flashing custom kernels also but nothing worked with game killer or game cih..plz help

What guide suggests using Superuser over SuperSU? Heh
Well the two most popular ways to root the Sprint S4 is either CF Auto Root or via flashing the SuperSu zip from Chainfire via a custom recovery such as TWRP, Philz, or CWM.

[Q] Rooting NC5, Towelroot Fails.

As the title states, I'm trying to root my phone using towelroot, yet everytime that it runs all it does is reboot my phone which according to the splash screen for towelroot, says that it's unsuccessful. How do I go about correcting this?

Have you downloaded SuperSU yet? I had the same issue until I did. I think I remember that was the solution.
Here are the complete instructions for rooting with Towelroot, not much to it.

Install SuperSU and busybox onto your phone before you try towel root, these will install but not set up. make sure you have usb debugging turned on, then try it again. SuperSu will bond with towel root and then ask to turn off knox...knox is trying to block it. You need SuperSu and then busybox running. if you get it rooted you'll be able to update SuperSu and set up busy box...maybe rom tool box, lucky patcher blackmart alpha, and rom manager after you get rooted too.
I had an instance where towel root said it worked and apps were saying I still needed full root access, so I used kingo android root to finish over it.
you can also try kingo android root (your decision and you own risk) it worked for me most times without any crap installed. even the chinese version rooted my phone but it puts its own program and SU, but if you already have SuperSU and busybox installed, the SuoerSu will uninstall those other SU apps and still have root. (your decision and you own risk).
Idk what those programs are that the post above me refer to, but all I did is download selinux mode changer and set to permissive, then use towelroot. See if that helps any

@ryant35: Thanks for the insight, I had it downloaded, and I was following that guide - it didn't mention installing SuperSU until the device is rooted ( and SafeStrap installed )
@Neontc: SELinux Mode changer depends upon the device already being rooted from what I read on the download page. I'll give it a shot though.
If anyone knows how to fool TowelRoot into thinking that it's online, I'd be very happy to hear that news. I'm going to be out to sea without internet for my phone for about a month, and I'm still actively trying to root my phone...
Thanks again for the quick responses, and I'll try to update when I can as far as what's happened and how I fixxed it!
Maybe I am wrong more than likely I am but I was under the impression that busybox was included somehow with the towel root install. I went with the towel root first then came back with the su after the root was installed after I checked to make sure the root took using root checker from the play store. Jesse
