I rooted my fascinate with z4root. Then, I unrooted. Then, I noticed that my superuser was still there. I tried to delete it but couldn't. Then, I heard that u can delete it by rooting, so I tried to root it again. But for some reason, z4 keeps saying, you already have the such binary. Unable to root. I then tried to root using other programs on my computer with one click root program. That kept saying, unable to root device. Please help me delete the su or reroot my phone.
A few simple commands with an app called terminal emulator, free in market. Search YouTube for "fascinate remove root" for the commands

You can also set to stock using Odin. There is also a way to delete the root files using root explorer if you still have root access but I'm guessing not as that happened to be after the last update.

I flashed the official nightly build of CyanogenMod on my Samsung Galaxy Ace.
The root explorer just closes when I try to open it. So I removed it, and installed it via an apk, same issue.
And when I download it from the market, it says it's "Purchased", but when I try to download it, it gives me a 403 error. Please help. Thank you.
You know I have the same problem with the market saying I purchased it and giving me that error. I wouldn't know why its not opening on your phone tho.

Try wiping market cache and downloading again.
The file explorer in stock Cyanogen mod could do most things that root explorer could...by the way...you bought root explorer?impossible cause you said you were using an apk...google play now displays paid apps installed via apk as purchased...but won't let you download...

The FE does not give you root access, that's why RE comes in place.
But I prefer ES File.
Yeah, I think I'll just let it be since ES File Explorer does that, too.
I have t-mobile LG L9 p769
after I root, I linked the chrome,facebook,google+ to sd, using link2sd, (I linked apk,dat, and library files)
then the partition on SD went corrupt and had to reformat
now when I try to install Google chrome/facebook/Google Plus, in google play it tells me, invalid package file,
and yes I did clear the cache of play/google frame work but it didnt work for me any idea?
Install busybox. If that doesn't work then you might try hard reset.

I did a factory reset, and also installed busy box,
for some apps like facebook, i can now install, but for google play store it still says invalid package file or google play book
Unlink all apps then uninstall linked2sd. Reboot then reinstall the apps that aren't working.

If that application is a system app, then you have to root your phone ... But i don't think you'll be able to root your phone yet ..

Thank you. Yes, I think that application is a system app. I think also root is possible ( i'll try motochopper for mtk6589 devices) but I don't know how to locate the chinese app and what's the app name. Do you have an idea for me?
Ok, my phone is rooted. Ther's some apk that allows download of others chinese app. But I don't know what it is.
Any idea?

With some file explorer ( I recommend ES file explorer - you can get it off Google Play or as a apk file if you don't have Play Store installed, it's a free app) go to /system/app and there you will find all the stock apps. Delete the ones you don't need, but be careful not to delete something your phone needs such as SystemUI or something like that. Also you might have to mount /system first. Do that by clicking root explorer in ES and then when it shows up a pop up window make sure that the dot is set on rw for the /system . Otherwise you won't be able to delete anything.

Very thanks. I'll try this.
I saw that some apps have the suffix [3738] (for example GoogleService [3738].Apk). I do not think they're stock apps. I will try to remove these first.
Thanks again

Did you set the right permissions? RW-R-R (644)

Where did you download this "gapps installer apk"?
Are you sure you got the right gapps for the right version of android?
Download them here
http://goo.im/gapps for Android 4.2.2, unzip the files and move them to the correct location with root explorer and set permissions as LordManhattan said
You do need to be rooted to install this because you need the framework and some other files to get things working. And I do not think the .apk file you downloaded can achieve root access by it self.

File commander is very limited and won't let you access any root folders. Root Explorer is the one I use but there are many. Navigate to the installed Google play apk, set permissions to rw-r-r. You'll understand more when you try it.

You must have root to modify system files, and in your case where you're trying to move a file into a system folder, you must have root.

Thank you. Have fun!
just do the following:
go to settings->apps->all
there would be download manager just diasable it and enable it again
if it still doesn't work just reset app preferences
