[Q] Im rooted but don't have Super user - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys I'm a little noob but I rooted my S3 4.3, but I don't know why my root didn't came with Super user, but the reason that I posted this is because I have some apps that are asking me for root access, but I have titanium backup working fine...

OMG! You are doomed!
Go to play store and download SuperSU or Superuser by koush,
then you should update the binary and reboot.
Btw you are posting in the wrong section.
You should have asked question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help

Man,
Show some respect.
There was a time when you were at his level

He didn't seem disrespectful at all to me. Rather, he was very helpful. Don't get so sensitive about 1 joke.

I don't disrespect him, and that's what I felt when that happened to me for the first time.
Seriously, what's wrong? I gave help even on wrong forum section, even a link to where is the proper forum.
Regards,
Janres

Ok ok....
Peace....

Why you won't flash prerooted pure-stock, such as my deodexed version?
You guys are only making your life more difficult .
Flash this to fix root.

[Q] How do i change my Kernel version info from root info to original

As the title states im looking to remove root info from my kernel version for warranty purposes, my phone shows -
2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI4-CL575468
[email protected] #2
I am not able to use usb for kies or S2 root but i can flash via ODIN and have flashed original rom/kernel to stock but the root info remains under kernel version , is there a way to remove?
Thanks in advance.
I'm sure I answered this very question yesterday ... oh, I did! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22163342#post22163342
That "root" just means that the user "root" compiled the kernel on the machine "DELL143", not that your phone is rooted.
Sorry, but this just has to be done
Ok thank you, i did search the forum but no result came up.
Just need to reset my flash counter and send it back then.
Thanks again

I'll match that, OP needs to watch this.
OP click the play button
Edit, good to see that you did search OP it's a common mistake to misinterpret the "root" and thinking you've got a rooted device.
Bam ! It's a verry niice

i9305 rooting error

Hi guys,
First of all thank you for all the awesome tips and tricks here, I really learned a lot from the community.
I have a samsung i9305 which I recently purchased to replace my i9300.
I downloaded super su and busy box to my phone but then they didn't work because my phone wasn't rooted (stupid me, i forgot)
so I tried rooting it using this method:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394
and followed each and every instruction perfectly but then my phone wasn't getting rooted (checked on rootchecker basic, although settings stated that my device is modified and triangle counter is 2)
so i did it twice but I still got the same result.
Then I tried this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273
And I thought it worked properly (since when my phone booted up it said that it was updating the OS)
but then my super su installation was gone and every time I try to open root checker it just gets stuck on the (your system appears to be slow...) and it never finishes checking. Also, sometimes the apps won't open.
Can anyone help me with this issue? I don't want to break/brick this new phone. :crying:
I'm currently downloading the original firmware and im hoping to unroot it by flashing it via odin later. But it's a zip file right and we need the .md5 thing to flash on odin? how do i flash it?
I hope you can help me out and I'm really sorry for the hassle.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Might wanna try the correct forum.
Use Odin and flash pre-rooted Stock Rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32929446
Btw. You're in wrong section.

[Q] Gamekiller 2.6 & 2.61 not working on 4.3

I'm using Android Revolution HD 40.0 on Samsung Galaxy S3 international
Gamekiller 2.6 & 2.61 is not working on my device!
The error shows is that "root privilege is needed", but the thing is I already rooted my phone! (using SuperSU by Chainfire)
May someone please answer me the problem is from?
1. Gamekiller 2.6 & 2.61 itself not compatible on 4,3 -> ( gamekiller 1.9 or older is working on 4.3 )
2. Jellybean 4.3 not support gamekiller? -> ( it's working when I'm on 4.1.2 )
Thanks Have a great day!
(sorry I know my English is quite bad)

Please read the rules no bumping .
Suggest you ask in the apps own forum .
But many of these hack apps don't work from time to time .
Super su is not root are you sure you actually have rooted and by what method .

Go to the international s4 thread. Can't help you here. In a nut shell, you need to get root via and exploit or custom recovery. Try TowelRoot.com. If that doesn't work, consult the intention s4 forum on XDA.
