[Q] Superuser from Koush / CWM - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have installed the superuser app from Koush / CWM. While using my favorite file-explorer I accidently choose “deny root access” / “remember this choice forever”. My file-explorer app is now listed under the denied apps. Is there any chance to get back, so that superuser will ask again to grant root-access? I couldn’t find this option in superuser settings, also not when tap and hold on the app in the deny list. Any ideas?

Try clearing the Superuser app's data, then relaunching your file explorer.

If you clear the settings of your file manager and relaunch it, it should prompt you again. If not, you can uninstall and reinstall to regain root permission requests.

Many thanks for your helpful replies! Not a convenient solution, but it seems to work.

Super SU from superuser

i want to switch from super user to super su. Just because i think it looks better with ics. So what i did was download super user from play store, and open it. I granted it access and let it update its binary. Now super su grants all my apps access. So the next logical step i thought would be to uninstall the regular super user. but i cant find it in titanium backup? (i search for superuser, super, user and neither super su nor superuser come up)
Also once i manage to get the regular superuser removed i would have to move the super su to system apps via titanium right?
You ever come right with this bud? Also can't remove superuser app from foxhound Rom. Deleted it from system/app using root explorer but it comes back after reboot.

1. Install SuperSu from Play and update binaries. Make sure it achieves root.
2. Delete Superuser.apk from system/app using a root file manager.
3. Install Superuser from Play.
4. Uninstall Superuser thru Play.
5. Reboot phone.
No more Superuser and SuperSU should retain root functionality.
cheers mate. Updated to the latest foxhound and superuser went away. Having this issue on a buddies phone so will try your method this weekend and give feedback.
Appreciate the response.

About SuperUser

Hi guys, I am totally new here and have a question that how I can re-grant the app permission as wrongly denied... Try to re-install the app but still unable to get the SuperUser allow to grant. Is that means once denied one app, then this app will never be get the permission fever ?
Thank you very much !

You should be able to allow/deny via Superuser app. Just open Superuser, you will see the apps which require root access, open the app of your choice and press the menu key, so that option appears whether to deny/allow root access permissions.

You can also try either clearing the app data or flashing SuperSu (do a search) and using that instead of SuperUser.

Superuser clear data..

Have a unlocked and rooted Nexus 7. Everything was working perfectly till I made the stupid move to clear Data on the superuser app. Now I do not seems to have root access. The apps that require root access does not work now. The Superuser prompt does not appear either..
What have I done and what do I need to do now?...
Go to the superuser app, swipe right and tap 'update su binary'. Then open root apps and see if they ask for permission. Clearing data of superuser app normally doesn't cause anything other than losing the list of permitted apps.

Hi! Thanks for the advice.. But.. when I used the root checker app from the market, It tells me I am not rooted.. Then I tried factory reset the device, still no root access. Finally, Using the nexus 7 toolkit, I flashed the SuperSu and now root is back..
Hmm...

Supersu not grant permission to certain apps. Help

I have CM10.2 with Googy max kernel and latest SuperSU. When I'm running some apps (restart camera, some tasker tasks, etc) Supersu automatically denied root permission without promoting. But some apps it work (ROM manager, ROM toolbox, root checker, triangle away, etc. ). Then I use its full unroot option and reboot and again flash supersu zip. But no luck.
I can't see root permission deny apps list. Supersu only show allow app list.
But if I use "grant" (in Access) then there's no issue. I face this issue only if I selected "promote" option with some apps.
How do I fix this issue?

Checking for root privileges won't work.

I have trouble granting root privileges for Greenify. When I try to set up the app, after ticking the option "My device is rooted" there's no SuperSU pop-up for me to actually grant root permissions. I already cleared the cache and data of both Greenify and SuperSu app.
Exactly the same for me. See my message below (does not recognize root).
Got a solution! I set up the app without root and then changed the modus from "No Root + Boost (Xposed)" to "Root + Boost (Xposed)" in the apps settings. Then I got the SuperSU permission pop-up.
