By installing a different su i will replace the current one right? Or will i brick it etc

I've wondered about this too. I'm sure no brick, worst case maybe have to reinstall a rom; but do you grant new superuser root access with old superuser then delete old superuser?

In the old superuser application, you must go to settings and press the "prepare for new superuser application" button.
Once you have that done, download the new one and it should work from there.

I don't see that option in the settings of the Superuser app. I was always under the impression that you could install the new app, update the su binary using the new app (giving it superuser privileges from the old app), and then removing the old app.

Hi all,
I have just rooted my HTC Evo V which I am assuming is just a revamped Evo 3D, and I'm just learning some of the scripting basics. However when I try to reboot the phone with terminal emulator using:
su
reboot
It returns "not permitted!" And if I input:
sudo
I get /system/bin/sh sudo: not found
Am I missing something? Or am I not doing something right? Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

I just did:
su
(Granted superuser permission)
reboot
It worked for me. My guess is that "Not permitted" means that the terminal emulator app isn't being granted superuser permission.
Ok, here goes.
Does it matter that I'm using just the "patched" stock Android OS? Or that I still have S-On with the stock hboot bootloader (unlocked)?
I'm using the stock OS because I like the 3D and I have heard that the 3D on the other roms isn't working yet. However if the other stuff needs changing please let me know what.
Currently I'm using twrp recovery.

Have you flashed a superuser zip file and installed busybox? I think the reboot command requires busybox.

I flashed Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip and have busybox 1.20.2 installed via busybox installer free using "smart install"

Have you used the Root Checker app from the Play Store to make sure that you have root working properly?

Yes and it says that everything checks out except for sudo.

Clear data for superuser in "manage apps" then try again and see if you get a prompt to approve root access.

Are you using su or sudo? Su worked fine for me but sudo said no such file.
Same thing. Is there a different su zip that I can try flashing maybe the one I have is somehow effed up and not working properly.

Sudo isn't a command in android, if you haven't tried yet, try just su. There are stock ROMs in development with root and everything (including 4g and 3d) working, maybe try one of those?

If I were to flash a blank su and a blank superuser.apk over my current install, would that work?
(a little brief but that makes this easy to read)
Hm, I guess that when an app tries to get root acces using su binary it would get an error. Why would you do something like that anyway?

Just a random thought as to whether it would work as an unroot. (for warranty returns and such)
I am using HTC Desire X (Indian). Recently I updated my mobile to JB. Previously my mobile is rooted. Now in unrooted position. But after update also I am not able to uninstall superuser. How can I remove or uninstall superuser manually?

Use root explorer & grant super user permissions...then navigate to system/app/superuser.apk
Delete it....
Pls..note that u will loose root but wen u will install the same superuser manually then u can gain root back
Plz.z. Do press thanks

You can also remove it with aroma filemanager (a recovery file manager) to bypass HTC write protection
Not only Superuser.apk also /system/xbin/su and busybox files.

I had such error on my SGY. I updated su binary, then I installed busybox 1.21.1 from Stericson's busybox installer (get it on Play Store).
Then problem was solved.
I'm trying to install the Framework, when I go into the app and then press install/update, I get a window that says:
Copying Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip...
Could not extract Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, restarted the phone and still getting the same issue. never had this problem before, can anyone help?

If you are trying to install Xposed on a newer Samsung device, Knox and SELInux will fight you. I'm guessing you are running what is in your in your sig, so probably not Knox. Install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.selinux Grant SU, change to Permissive, reboot (may not be necessary, but doesn't hurt), and try again.

What version of Xposed are you trying to install? Do you have a custom recovery? If so, Xposed 2.5+ will give you an option to install normal via system or you can pick the option to install via recovery. I'd go that route. It's at the top of the framework install part of Xposed - there is a drop down box to choose install methods.
Edit: Looked at the picture you posted and you definitely have the newer version.

It very well could be something in it that isn't being friendly to the normal framework install method, but lemme know if it works the other installation way. If it does, then not a big deal either way.

I tried the other way and I still had the issue. So I did a clean installation of the rom again and it works now.
I guess something went wring when installing the rom which may have caused the issue.
Thank you for your help

What you want to do also after installing the rom freshly. Install the xposed v 2.5 rather than 2.5.1 because 2.5 works perfectly and there's no real need in updating it

I have the same error, but for me i have a kindle fire HD 7inch
I can't use the play store because when I try to install it it just crashes and so does my you tube that i got without root via apk
Same issue
I am having the same issue with the could not extract the zip file. I have tried what was suggested on this thread as well as reinstalled the rom 3 times. I have used this rom before with no problems. The only two other things I can think of trying are full wipe and format of the sd card or full unroot and revert to stock then reroot and try the rom again. Any thoughts?

You're using 2.5 (not 2.5.1) and still having issues? What phone, rom, etc? Might try rolling back to 2.4.1.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 and running wicked rom. I was having the problem just on 2.5.1 but on 2.5 everything would load but none of the modules were working after rebooting. Everything checked out (installed and unzipped) with no errors on 2.5.

Weird...What modules were you trying to use? When you go into the Framework part, does it show the app_process and XposedBridge.jar as green / active?
It did for the 2.5 version even tho nothing was working. I reverted back to 2.4.1 and things seem to be working at the moment. I was running Wanam and the kbs network module. I'm going to try and play around tonight with some other modules and see if the problem persists.
