Hello Everyone,
I have a Droid 4 XT894 running OS 4.1.2 and i was looking for a root exploit, I ran into Razr Blade and decided it should work, I used it, checked my root with Root Checker Basic and it keeps saying I dont have access. Why?
Did you activate the root option in your superuser app?

I had Superuser and it just kept saying "Permission denied" Yes i had root on and never set it to deny all . All root required apps never showed up in the log or the Root Access list.

Are you getting a popup that you have to grant root rights on?
If you just installed it, you have to grant root rights. Was it working before, then stopped?

as an extension of that: if you didn't get the popup then install "Superuser" from the market and try again
Try the "problems" button, it will install busybox.
Hi,
Please help, I did rsd, flashed retail.en.EU, then did OTA from SD. Everything works great, but I lost my root. (Voodoo keeper didnt worked somehow). Voodoo shows that: su installed - YES, device rooted - YES, root permission granted - NO, system supports root protection - YES, protected SU copy available - NO. Only button I can hit in voodoo is "protect root" and then it tells "root su protected". But the thing is that Superuser does not allow (not even asks) any superuser permission to no apps. And every other root checker apps states that device isnt rooted. So I want to ask You guys:
Is there some way to restore the root I had? And if no:
How to delete/uninstall/remove Superuser from my system. Because SU was installed during the root process, and there is no option to uninstall it. Just disable, uninstall updates.
BIG THANKS!

At the main tab the superusers app, tap on the application, on the bottom , tap on the trash button, it will forget the superusers access you have granted
Lastly, try to open the app

Boot Menu Manager, you need root to install that recovery
So you must wait for the developers to make a root program so you can root your phone

Hey, Ok so i updated my Huawei u8650 to android 4.4.2 and something went wrong with my root. I can open superuser and it shows my binary and all that and it says im rooted but when i go to a app that requires root access like terminal emulator for example and i type in the command su. nothing happens it just goes to the next line. and i tried to mount my SD card partition in link2sd and it said that the script cant be created because its not allowed to su.
I thought it could be that superuser just wasn't allowing permissions but i open superuser and there's no apps, no logs or anything. I checked my settings and they're all fine and i even tried to use SuperSU instead and i still got the same thing. There's no prompt to allow access either. I don't know if the apps are just not trying to get root access or what? No app can get root permission and i need to get this fixed so i can fix some bugs on the rom. Please Help.
Thanks to all who attempt or do help. Ill be sure to hit thanks for u.

i rooted by SRSroot first then first got the error then i unrooted and re-rooted by using the kingo root method but still received the same error. they are both windows programs u can run for root on multiple devices. They use USB debugging to root then device reboots and bam your rooted.
i used those methods because i tried to just flash the binary files through cwm recovery and it never actually installed into system. The two methods above installed binary and rooted my device but i cant give root access to any apps including superuser or supersu.
If anyone can help me with this it would be appreciated because i hit a wall and don't know what to do. No apps can get root permissions and i cant fix my play store, WiFi, speakers or theme chooser until the root is properly working because the methods to fix those bugs need root to function. so please if anyone has knowledge or any idea why i have root but cant get access please help me out.

If there is a custom recovery available for your device I would recommend flashing that and then flashing the latest SuperSU.zip package in recovery. Part of the problem is the orginal Superuser (by ChainsDD) while excellent at the time is now extremely outdated and no longer really be maintained, as a result make sure you flash a Superuser package compatible with Android 4.4.2 such as the latest version of SuperSU.

Where can i find it at? I have recovery on here but i cant seem to find the file. At this point i'll try anything.
Ok so i found the SuperSU.zip v1.99 via another XDA Forum(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053) and i flashed it then rebooted. Now my device says there is no binary and i am not rooted. I tried reflashing but the .zip does nothing. what should i try next?

You can try flashing Koush's Superuser in recovery, after please run root checker and tell me what is says it the status of your device.
I cant install root checker pro for some reason. I have the basic version installed, is that good enough?

OK so root checker says i have root access but i still cant access root permissions in apps. I took some screenshots of Link2sd, Terminal Emulator and root explorer so you can see what exactly is going on. I get some weird error in link2sd and root explorer that i have no clue what it is.
Anyone got any knowledge of this error?

try root after factory reset
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

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.

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.
