[Q] No root after installing phantom V7 rom - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
Im new to all this and after rooted my stockrom 4.3 (GT-N7100) i thought it was time to install a new rom: Phantoms V7. It runs perfectly and root should come with it. I did everything like described but i dont get any root. It keeps saying SU stopped. Does anybody got a clue what i should do?
Thanks in advance

Try to update the app via the Play Store. If that fails, then you can install SuperSU via custom recovery.

Thanks for your response but it doesnt work, it got no update in playstore so it must be having the latest SU wud be my guess.
And ehm..custom recovery? Got to read about that
But i figured out by opening SU in playstore that its missing SU binary. When i open SU by app it says SU stopped.
Where can i find that, how to istall it and how is it possible its got none, it was rooted before.
The phantom rom comes with Root and SU
What i tried:
Flashing SU from Phantom Rom v7
chainfires Autoroot
Udated SU by flashing
Superuser cant be deleted once installed?
Sorry for all my questions but totally new at this. Read a lot but some stuff is a little hard to understand
Thanx again

Sorry...got the recovery part but did it and also didn't work

[Q] Problem with SU

Hello everyone,
I have a problem, I got my EVO 3D GSM S-OFF and rooted 2 weeks ago.In the last hour I installed busybox from the market. Since then SU is not working anymore, root explorer is crashing and I got a force close everytime I launch SU.
I tried to downgrade my SU in recovery but unable to install the zip and the installation abort.
I tried to do a revolutionnary again but didn't worked. I tried to reinstall SU, same problem.
Of course I uninstalled busybox but it's not working at all.
If someone has an idea, please share
Thanks a lot in advance !
Jimi
Got this problem solved :
apply an old version of SU in recovery, it will fail but after a reboot, the SU app will really be downgraded. Install SU from market and don't install updates.
Problem solved, no FC anymore and root explorer is back to normal
Cheers.

Problem too big for a Noob

I have tried to Root my Vibrant on the UVKB5 update for a while now.
One Touch Root, says "no space on device", yet declares the phone rooted (su commands do not work).
Applications that require root, though, do work the su binary is always outdated and cannot be updated because "cannot find installed su binary".
This was found when I tried to boot into Clockwork Mod but only ended up in recovery mode - I downloaded the e3 fix that told me "the system cannot find the path specified. temp root failed! install cannot continue." All Try agains and Reboot and Try Agains result in the same answer.
I don't want to go back to JFD because I've done it before with a CyanogenMod with SGSII and everything crashed.
But if I did go to JFD, could I install CyanogenMod 7 the same? (the instructions assume I have the UVKB5 update)
Help.... please?!
Thanks!
i believe CM is like miui...as in the way of flashing it on the vibrant. u can either flash it from eclair 2.1 or froyo 2.2. as long as u can boot into recovery. but if u flash it from 2.1 u might have to pull out the battery then reflash from the new recovery since it bootloops...hope that helps.. i actually read how to install it..have u tried flashing project v which is a uvkb5?? then CM??that could be an easier way since project v is already rooted.
Sent from my Vibrant
I kinda wanna just install cyanogenmod...
all u have to do is this
1) root
2) install rom manager (free) from market
3) install cwm from rom manager
4) click reboot in recovery from rom manager(it will ask for root access)
5) reinstall package(u may have to repeat this step twice
6) put a custom rom of ur choice CM7 or miui
7) install it ....THAT'S IT....

Did you even read my original post.
My phone is only half rooted. Clockwork won't open and the e3 fix can't find root.
I know what to do, I was reading the instructions.
Have you tried to update your Superuser app in the market? If you download it and install the update you might get a parse error or something that says it can't update the binaries. Scroll down in the market link for Superuser and there is an Update Fixer. Install and run that and then rerun/update the Superuser app.
Sounds like your binaries are out of date. This shoud fix it. Might also want to go to settings>manage apps>Superuser and clear cache/data. Once you update the SU, you'll have to re-grant permission anyways so clearing data shouldn't be an issue.
If that fails try to re-root is with Option A here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028 There are two options here. Choose before you start.
A: Download this update.zip file to root your phone. You plan to install Rom Manager to flash CWR and a new ROM later.

That is not the problem. Installed Update Fixer. Signatures are "OK!". Force, just force closes the app.
A: I can't flash through CWR, as mentioned in my OP.
Looks like I'm going to have to start over again and just ODIN through this..

I did read your OP and it says this. If you update your SU then the binaries will update too with the fixer. The you can download CWR from the market, reinstall it, grant SU permission and flash away. Try going into settings>manage apps>superuser and clear cache/data. If you are only half rooted as you say, then first thing to do us get full root back, eh? Good luck.

Thanks for all the help, but in the end I did man up and went back to stock JFD and now Cyanogen mod runs amazingly. And the MMS that didn't use to work on my phone -does!
Google Apps didn't install properly and I had to re-install the rom 'cause i was impatient.
Love it now though... and google thinks I have a nexus s. ^^

how to obtain root perms and install SuperSU on JB rom?

I installed SuperSu on my X10 with "[cm10] XPERIA X10Z-10.1.A.1.434" Rom and once opened it asked me permission,I clicked ok and it has removed Superuser but after it said me that I had to update SU Binary.The first time I tried to update SU Binary choosing normal mode but the installation failed,the second time I downloaded update-SU_Binary-1.30.zip and I flashed it from recovery but after the reboot,opening SuperSu,it says that executable SU there isn't and SuperSU can't install it.Now,there is a mode to fix this issue to use SuperSu app? If not,how can I reinstall Superuser app? Is possible to root this Rom or I have to reflash it?
P.S: when I connect my X10 to the pc,flashtool says "Root acces allowed",but apps that require root,not work
i solved this issue reflashing the rom without full wipe,now I have Superuser again...
isn't there a mode to install correctly SuperSU on X10 with JB rom?

[Q] Does not have proper root

Hey guys,
I have an i9300, rooted with slimbeam installed. A few days ago I dropped my phone and the screen cracked and the display disappeared; so I got it replaced. When I turned my phone on again, it was stuck on the boot screen. So I fully wiped my phone and flashed slimbean again (as I already had the file on my external SD card). This got me passed the boot screen and my phone is working fine except it seems like I don't have proper root access. I downloaded a root checker and thats the message I got "Does not have proper root access" and when I run superSU it said "the su binary needs to be updated" so I click on update and I get a message saying " install failed. Reboot and try again" I reboot and tried again and same error
Anyone know what my best course of action would be?
EDIT: It also randomly keep rebooting.
Thanks a lot guys!
Cheers

i did flash superuser from the respective thread. When I run the root checker app I still get the "Sorry! This device does not have proper root access". When I run SuperSU it says "There is no SU binary installed and SuperS cannot install it. This is a problem! "
What do I do now? I was hoping flashing SuperSU would solve the problem.. but i guess that didnt work

Samsung Galaxy S II (GT-19100) Gingerbread | Rooted, but superuser not working

Hello peeps, evilbeef here!
So yea, I have rooted my phone a while a go I have used Odin v185
and I used Speed Kernel S2 K-2 -21 as the PDA file. I have found this on GalaxyS2 Root webpage
I have successfully rooted it, basically I have rooted so many phones using Odin. :laugh:But this one is different. I already have Superuser app (from google store) before I started rooting it. After I rooted it, my phone rebooted automatically. In the Startup, The phone has yellow triangle. My Phone works normally.
BUT THE PROBLEM IS, THERE IS NO REQUEST OF PERMISSION SHOWING, I ALSO USED ROOT CHECKER, IT IS NOT WORKING, IT SAYS ROOT ACCESS IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED. ALL OF THE APPS I DOWNLOADED THAT NEEDS ROOT PERMISSION ALSO DOESN'T WORK.
BUT ONE THING I AM WANDERING ABOUT IS THAT MY KERNEL VERSION CHANGED.
IT SAYS THAT: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #k2-21
But also when I go to recovery mode, I can flash CWM recovery automatically.
The only thing that doesnt work I think is the Superuser.
I also tried checking su binary vlegacy. I also try to check for updates but superuser keeps me forcing it to close.
I think I am only having issues with Superuser I think. How Can I fix this? Please Help
Uninstall supersu from you phone.
Download supersu from this link- https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/ Copy paste it into your SD card.
Boot into cwm recovery and install the supersu zip file you downloaded.
Thanks for the fast respond bro! I was thinking about the same thing tho, I just want to have confirmation from others if this thing would work! HAHAHAHAH thanks mate! :--------)
