i reverted back to the official sony ics recently(by a generic file) then i wasnt able to root using the doomlord's toolkit, so i flashed mesa hybrid kernel v4.2, and I rooted my phone.
I have superuser installed, but it is not granting root access to any app. Please help
I already tried to root again, and clearing data and force closing the superuser app, but it's still not working...

I tried to root it with the ray's .562 kernel, but the root fails. It says it doesnt have permission, as system/"blah blah" is read only...i also tried lww's .431 kernel, but still didn"t work.
and i even tried super user su, didn't help
sidenote:I can't do anything "root related" as i dont get any permissions, so should I flash another kernel or rom to root? is this even possible?

Did you checked UNKNOWN SOURCES & USB Debugging on your phone ? Did your pc has the driver of your phone ? If not, you can install the driver from here http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390362690511176454 . Thanks to DooMLoRD .

Say byebye to the root.
Reflash Rom, then reflash kernel.again.
Do not do rooting stuff as it is for locked bootloader.
Since your BL is unlocked.
Flash kernel has pre-rooted feature.
Good luck.

Glad to help you ..
Next time, you could just install custom kernel, download a rooting flashable zip file and install it via kernel's Recovery. I do it often, because I prefer to use Clockworkmod's Superuser and by that zip file, I avoid any kind of problems.
superuser not prompting or updating
ok so ive rooted my lg g2, and i have root access through apps, but superuser isnt at all prompting for superuser access, also when i try updating the binary it says: making sure new su works.....fail. now I know thats probably no problem, but I dont know what to do to get superuser to promp or work correctly, Im not sure this matters or not, but I would like it to work. if anyone can help i'd greatly appreciate it.

It could be possible that the binary of SU is not updated. try downloading superSU in google store to see what happens.
If that will not work, yes you can root gain your phone using CF root kernel then try flashing another kernel like siyah, speedmod etc.

Same problem, different result
Hello guys
First of all, I'm sorry to bump an old thread. But I guess it would be better than making a new one
I got my SGS2 from my sister few days ago and I tried to root it. After I did everything instructed by all tutorials I've read, I still can't use CWM Manager. It said just like above posts.
What I did:
1. Root the phone (already tried with 2 different kernels, the LP7s)
2. Open the SuperUser app. The app didn't give any options when I first opened it (like some tutorials do), it only gave 'Okay' to click.
3. Open CWM Manager and you all know the rest
4. Tried to install SU Updater fixer, but the app told me that there are no problems detected.
Then, I found out that I also had a problem connecting to wifi after I root (stuck in obtaining IP address). I didn't have the problem when first I use the device from my sister.
Waiting for your kindly replies. Thank you in advance

Did you root using CF-root?
If not, install the stock firmware if you arent on it, and use odin to install CF-root.

greetings. i apologize in advance if my thread is not in the correct place.
damn my curiosity. i clicked the "temp unroot" in superuser and it unrooted my phone. bootloader is still unlocked, as well as recovery, but i don't have root access for apps. i can't uninstall and reinstall SU without root... am i screwed?
i'm hesitant to do another one click root process. mainly because it said it would delete all the data on the phone while unlocking the bootloader. but my bootloader is still unlocked...
also, will installing my latest nandroid backup restore root access?
thanks!

What makes u think u lost root?? You can install su from the market.. I think all you need to do is installed su, or supersu from the play store and you should be good to go.. I just looked at this setting is supersu and it says clean up to unroot.. Try reinstalling su... Or restoring a backup could do it too..

Only the software can be "rooted" the term refers to superuser or admin access, root access to special privledges not available to regular users. The device software itself is exploited to allow a Rom root access. The device can be exploited for soff (security off) or the bootloader is unlocked allowing for access to write to the partitions in nand memory. In the case of HTC bootloaders they only allow partial write access to partitions, unofficial/unsigned recoveries do not have access to boot or misc partitions (kernel/firmware)
In response to op in superuser temp unroot is just an option to temporarily hide root, you should be able to just open the app and re-enable. Should that fail try supersu instead, there is a flashable zip on the dev's website that is flashed from recovery and should restore root access using supersu in place of superuser

Again words tossed around a lot. He hasn't lost anything he just removed root. He's fine if his recovery is intact. My assumption is that he feared he was back to stock then again I could be wrong besides root is a folder directory. Thanks for filling the op in.

Again its just an option to temporarily hide root, its not lost. You open the app go to settings and check temp unroot and to get it back, all that is needed is to uncheck temp unroot and restart phone. If it doesn't work which it should then reflash superuser or supersu in recovery to reenable admin access
Hello! I am new here. I have the same problem. I tried temp unroot just out of curiosity and now I think it is really permanently unrooted, because the temp-unroot checkox is no longer checked. I used the root checker and it says "Sorry! The device is not properly rooted". What does that mean? And only Titanium Backup asks for superuser permission. Whenever I use the Link2sd or Root Explorer, they don't ask for superuser permission and I get the error that my phone is not rooted.

I unrooted, and it worked, except that the ever persistent SuperUser application stayed. I don't know how to get rid of it or where it's located. Please help?

Hello, is there any way to remove su and root access with out a nandroid backup? I made the mistake of creating a back up after I had already installed SU so i have no stock nandroid to restore. Ive tried hunting down the .apk file and deleting it but when i reboot my phone, SU is right back in the app menu. Please dont just link the stock tmo nandroid thats floating around, if i could use that i would have.

You can delete the su file, that basically makes not root.
The su file resides in system/xbin
The app is in system/app ex. Supersu or superuser
You can still get into recovery .
The reason because the su comes back up is because you have the stock kernel without rw access. Get a custom kernel and flash it, delete the su, then flash the stock kernel again. Team nocturnal has a link up for stock 1.27 kernel

It worked for me, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40745177&postcount=55
After you flash it, do a factory reset and flash a custom kernel (should be easy to find, i just searched for kernel under the t mo htc one development thread) Then download a file explorer and grant it root access. Delete the Superuser APK and reboot. After that flash the stock kernel and you should be all set. I was even able to run the OTA update after flashing the stock recovery and re-locking the boot loader. Hope this helps you out!

If you still have recovery, you should be able to just flash a rom.
If you don't, read the FAQ. When you unroot, you'll need to start from scratch. Stump is our only root and it only works the first time. Or when it's clean.

Once you fully restore back to default stock, you will need to go ahead and install stump root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906
It will allow you to brute force root, which should take about 5 minutes.
After you reboot, you should have root. Go to the market and download supersu. From there you should be able to have root access. From there you need to download TWRP (my choice of recovery) http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-2-8-2-0-t2966129
Once that's done, you should be able to reinstall you ROM and profit.
This is all from SCRATCH as you suggested.

I feel you might need to fix permissions or try flashing su in recovery.

thanks for that instruction. I just ended up using the PC method with odin and flashed root using LG_Root_Script_by_avicohh. It worked perfectly and got me back to root. But thanks anyway!
I rooted my Samsung galaxy grand duos...it got rooted as well but super su is not working...what to do?
