[Q] SuperUser not allowing me to allow - HTC Droid DNA

SuperUser won't allow me to allow an app root access, any app I try, SuperSU, Hotspot shield, anything. In the past it worked just fine allowing Titanium and still works for apps I have already allowed, but it won't let me hit the allow button when an app asks for root access. No matter what I keep tapping it and nothing happens, either I tap cancel or it times out. And I am on CyanogenMod 11 nightlies.

This doesn't help your issue but don't use hotspot shield it logs what you do.

There is some app overlaying on the screen and superuser is strict about.
Most likely is lux unless they fixed it recently. Try uninstalling that and any other apps that affect the display.

[Q] Is it OK to install the built-in TetherigManager app?

I already used FoxFi and it works well. But when I run FoxFi, the TetheringManager app also started. As a matter of fact, it will have notification to configure TetheringManager whenever I start FoxFi.
I tried freezing the app with TB, but it still starting in the background.
So can I fully UNINSTALL it?

Whatsoever you want to do with it? Your title says install and your post says uninstall. Tethering manager it does what the name says, it watches your wifi tethering to see how much data your using, don't know the purpose for sure , if At&T is trying to charge for hotspots, but can just go in with root explorer to system/app, copy the tetheringmanager.apk somewhere in your SD for safe keeping, delete the apk and reboot.

This question was asked in another forum and it led me to deleting (after freezing) the tethering manager app. Now it doesn't start up and I can tether just fine. Hope that alleviates your concerns about deleting, but it would probably be safest to do what the above poster recommended.

[Q] "shell has been granted superuser permission" message over and over

I have an AT&T Galaxy Note running official ICS - stock and rooted. I have SuperUser from ChainsDD.
These past few weeks, I have been seeing the message "shell has been granted superuser permission" in random manner. When it does, the message will keep showing up until I reboot the phone. SuperUser log will also the same messages...hundreds of them!
I couldn't pinpoint the reason it happening, but I see a bit of a pattern --> it happens when I tried to switch program quickly. Example:
1). Open up Dead Trigger game. Load a game and when it starts, quickly hit the Android back button and exit the game. The above message shows up.
2). Open GMail app. While the app is "loading" the list of message, I received a "Twitter" notification. From notification bar open the Twitter message to open the Plume Twitter app. The above message shows up.
I tried to uninstall apps that requires root one-by-one but the problem still exists. These apps are:
- AdFree
- AutoStarts
- BetterBatteryStats
- File Manager
- GameCIH
- Quick Boot
- Sixaxis Controller
- SuperUser
- Titanium Backup
- Wifi Tether (3 entries in SuperUser app)
- Wireless Tether (2 entries in SuperUser app)
- avast! Mobile Security
Not only the message is annoying, but it slows down the phone.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
The shell goes active every time any app starts, that has been given super user permissions..
You can turn off the SU "toast" notifications from within the SU application ....g

I am aware about the "toast" notification, especially if I started an app like, say, File Manager that requires Root Access.
However, I don't think it's normal for the "shell" message to shows up EVERY 2-4 SECONDS. Even if I turned off "toast" notifications, the SuperUser log shows that same message and it slows down the phone.
Does your rooted phone shows that message in the SuperUser log files? I have HUNDREDS of them in a span of 1 minute. I am just trying to see if the above behavior is normal, but I think it is not because this does not happen to my past phone (Thunderbolt, Motorola Triumph, Galaxy S2) and tablets (Transformer, Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus and Nexus 7).

No...the device behavior is not normal...
I do get the notifications every so often, especially after a reboot, but never 1000's of times a day...
Try uninstalling super user, and install "Super SU instead.....
then go to your recovery, and wipe your caches, dalvik included...
After the reboot, your normal apps may require you to give them SU permissions again, but i'm thinking with the new app, it may fix your issue with the phone..
If not, you may have some sort of data corruption going on, and will need a fresh start...or, you have a rogue app thats kicking your azz....
also try an app monitor of some sort, to see if you get any apps that open/close non-stop....
And on a personal note, I understand you are frustrated.....And I get that...
And I'm only trying to help you....g

No worries, I was trying to provide more context of my problem in the 2nd post. Appreciate the help.
You should uninstall your superuser app first, then clear caches .
Then after reboot, install super SU..and reboot again.
This method will allow the device to see the SU app, and will prompt you for any interaction it may need ....g

True...but that does not explain the bug report being initialized, or what triggered the event....
Disabling of USB debugging will shut down about 75% of the devices ability to interact with root apps and ADB operability.....
While it will stop the error from occuring, it wont fix the problem...

I have the Mail.com app (probably the same rebranded as is for GMX.net) on my Galaxy S2 tab. It often hangs/freezes and being a helpfull guy I use the submit report feature. Immediately after this I also go in to the "shell has been granted superuser permission" cycle until phone restart. The battery goes into turbo drain if I don't restart PDQ & phone gets hot.
I've disabled USB debugging now too, and I'm hoping that this is the end of that nonsense.
So has anyone found the culprit of this, or a better solution to disabling 'usb debugging'? How was your experience with switching to SuperSU? I have a Note that constantly toasts the same shell stuff. My friend has a Note also with the issue. It slows the phone to a crawl, and drains battery until reboot.
Check your system for bugmailer.sh and rename it with a .bak extension.

So, I lost root access doing things in this order. Everything is working fine now, although it's only been a few minutes. I couldn't uninstall Superuser, the closest I could get, was uninstall updates, and then disable [It would be nice for superuser to show up TiBu, but it's not recognized at all]. Downloaded SuperSU, but it refused to open and froze my phone with each try. Ran 'root checker' and didn't have root access anymore since superuser was disabled. Had to enable superuser again, update it...give SuperSU root access via superuser, then SuperSU was able to gain control of my root access, and then I uninstalled updates, and then disabled superuser.
So it seems from my experience, that you have to leave your previous app for root access enabled long enough to grant the new app access to take over it's job.
So if anyone else is deciding to switch over, I'll save you a headache by making sure you leave Superuser enabled until you get SuperSU up and running.
Hopefully I've seen the last of these persistent 'shell notifications'

That's interesting. I didn't uninstall SuperUser, just disabled it so my thought this will not remove root. Maybe this has to do on how I rooted my phone.

[Q] Cant install non market apps

I've checked allow unknown sources and it will even pull up the install screen but I can not click on install it doesn't do anything. Just allows me to hit cancel and that's it.
Any ideas?
some problem happen to your app
I have this same issue.. I cant install apps from Amazon..or sideload apps...and my Unknown Sources is checked as well. Most people seem to fix it by disabling ScreenFilter. I guess its an app that has something to do with the screen brightness. So if you have any app that mess with the screen brightness, disable that first and see if it works
I dont have this app installed so I am at a loss as well. I went thru all my apps to see if I have anything that might create and overlay and I didnt see anything on my device that would prevent it..
Found out the app that was doing it for me..it was Soft Buttons Light..and app on the Market that allows the capacitive keys to stay lit!! I uninstalled this, and was able to install things again. In the permissions it said "Allows the app to draw on top of other applications or parts of the user interface. They may interfere with your use of the interface in any application, or change what you think you are seeing in other applications."..Your best bet is to look thru all your apps, and find out which ones have the permission for system wide alerts..and disable those!

Auto-hibernation service is stopped message

Hi all
I am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 4.3 stock rooted and I am having some issues with greenify. Everytime I start the app to see if it working I get this message: "Auto-hibernation service is stopped" The problem is that I am not using a 3rd-party tool or any other mode as energy saving mode on my note 2 and I still get this message. What should I do to fix it?
thx
This same problem,
S III, rom > http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-archidroid-v2-4-6-power-hands-t2354859
Xposed framework installed
Greenify is device administrator
I have full version
Please read the FAQ in post #2 in the main thread. Both of you may be having root issues.
If I may make a suggestion?
I started getting the same error message (it started right after I paid for the app). After reading "thousands" of pages I think I may have hit on the answer. Greenify is in "boost" mode, that somehow, even though it uses xposed framework, doesn't need root. So I checked supersu and greenify wasn't listed. Then I changed to "root" method and greenified an app, then supersu asked to allow greenify, thereby now having it listed again in supersu.
I then changed it back to "boost" and so far haven't had that error. Coincidently, Greenify seemed to work ok anyway even with that error.,
edit: well that blows, I started to get the error message again, so disregard what I wrote above. Maybe a fix is coming, or I'll live with manually starting auto-hibernation.

No, I check this 3 times ...
colin p > nothing, still this same problem
anyone has ideas, what else, I can do ?
Just to add additional info, this auto-hibernation error only started after I bought the Donation Package. I don't know if it's something to do with the additional options or not. Before I bought the program, auto-hibernation worked fine.
I have a Nexus 4 (rooted with towel-root) and SuperSu and of course the Xposed framework. I uninstalled/re-installed Greenify, as well as the Donation Package and still the error pops up the first time I open Greenify. I then have to manually start auto- hibernation and it works ok after that, at least it "seems" to as everything is under the hibernated section.
After I re-installed, SuperSu asked to allow Greenify root access, so it is properly listed. I would imagine that if a significant few of us have the issue, a future update will address the error problem.
I would like to try to enable Greenify as root mode. Will the message appear?
If it isn't I would then disable the Greenify module in Xposed, then reboot (no soft reboot, just to be sure), enable module, reboot again, and then select boost mode within Greenify. Then make a last reboot. Then inspect the problem.
This is not a definite fix, though in some weird circumstances, it might work
TechnoSparks said:

The message appears in either root or boost mode on the first time the program is opened after a boot up.

By George...
Well after a lot of screwing around, I think (at least for my circumstances) I "may" of found the answer. Because the error said something like "auto hibernation service is being blocked by 3rd party tool or system settings (ex.stamina mode in sony devi es. autostart manager in MIUI) Please whitelist greenify for automatic hibernation to work", I uninstalled Donkey Guard and Cydia Substrate (they were installed a couple of days before I got the pro version of Greenify, even though there was no problem with them before I got the paid version of Greenify), but still got the error. Ruling out program issues, this time I actually shut down my phone (no reboot or soft reboot) and on opening Greenify, no error. Since I was using the reboot toggle in "Notification Toggle", I tried rebooting through xposed (not soft reboot) and this time, no error. Tried again with Notification toggle and got the error.
So, at least for me, I think I may have solved the issue.....for now.
BTW thanks TechnoSparks as you gave me something to work with.

Everything is working great for me.
Make sure you have SuperSu (latest)
Also after installing Greenify, set it as a device administrator.
Settings>security>device administrators>select Greenify.
Enable accessability as well (settings>accessibility>Greenify>Enable.
I have these enabled and have no issues.

HI Oasis - just to reply that I am still getting Auto-hibernation stopped with Greenify v2.5.1
Basically after a while auto-hibernate just seems to stop. I have all my apps waiting to be hibernated even after a few hours of screen off. I do not get the 3rd party message saying auto-hibernation is stopped. I have Accessibilty on and have given Greenify Device Administration rights.
I will get the 3rd party message if I force close Greenify or if I reboot. In those cases Accessibility will have turned itself off. After turning Accessibility back on, the message disappears but I still have apps waiting to be hibernated after seveal hours of screen-off.
After every reboot, I find that Greenify does not seem to ask SuperSU for root access. Even though I've granted Greenify automatic access,the log files for SuperSU never show Greenify as either being granted or denied rights. I know that Greenify is meant to ask for those rights when the screen is off. I guess it might be another app is locking the device when the screen is off before Greenify can ask for access. I've tried removing Device Admin privileges for other apps and remove PIN unlocks but this does not seem to help.
The only way I have managed to get Greenify running again is to uninstall and reinstall, which seems to be the only way when the screen is on that I can get it to request root access via SuperSU. This does mean I cannot use the Xposed installer options, because I would first need to reinstall Greenify, grant it root access via SuperSU, then enable the XPosed module, then reboot. But after reboot SuperSU access seems to be withdrawn and I can't get it to request root unless I uninstall and reinstall.
I'm sure I'm missing something but I'm not sure what. I am not sure if there is a way of forcing Greenify to request SuperSU access even when the screen is on without having to reinstall.
I am rooted with SuperSU 2.4 and Xposed installer, HTC One on Viper 7.02 ROM, Greenify 2.5.1 with donation package.
EDIT: I've found that I can get Greenify to ask for Root Access through Xposed if I first degreenify Facebook, re-greenify Facebook, launch another app which wakes up Facebook (eg Agoda) and then request Greenify to cut-off the wake-up. Seems to be working.
EDIT2: Alas, still having problems. Usually nothing auto-hibernates after charging the phone. Yesterday it was working fine, today I unplugged, started some apps, closed the phone and went for breakfast. 1.5 hours later the apps were still waiting to hibernate. Am completely lost on what to do next.

I occasionally get this message, generally after an update to Greenify, but just tap on the message and continue on with my day. After exhaustive (I'm rather OCD) research, the general consensus is to forget about it as it is just Greenify's way of letting you know that the auto-hibernation has stopped and needs to be restarted. I have gone without tapping on that message and the service still starts up all by itself.
My advice is to open Greenify after an update (updates have slowed considerably anyway) and just tap on the message and it will be good to go until the next update.
Thanks for the response. I have been tapping on the message when I notice it, but it still seems to appear without updates to Greenify. I've tried checking a little more, though probably not as exhaustively as you did, and I suspect that there's some kind of conflict with Tasker. One of the main things I do with Tasker is alternate between "home" and "work" modes, part of which involves using a screen lock for "work" and turning it off for "home". It seems like when things are working fine at home, I go to work making it switch to work mode, and return home at the end of the day going back into home mode, Greenify complains. Since Greenify only works without a screen lock in non-root mode, I'm guessing this switching may be affecting thing, but I'm not completely sure. I guess I just have to live with it. One thing I've tried doing to mitigate the problem is add a Greenify hibernate action to my Tasker profile for turning mobile data off when the screen goes off. I'm not sure how well it's working, because at work I normally hibernate manually and at home I often don't worry about it, but even if it's not working, I think I get a placebo effect of thinking it's doing *something* so I'm less concerned about checking to see if Greenify has stopped auto-hibernating.

Greenify not hibernating automatically

Alright I just bought the donation package for Greenify (latest) but the auto-hibernate option is gone now. I tried to disable every module, reinstall root, reinstall greenify, clear cache, edit the settings (Security and accessibility) but still no luck. I don't have the yellow message that shows up when something is wrong with the auto-hibernation. All I can see is "will hibernate in minutes after screen is off" but the apps are still working in stand by and aren't hibernated. The only way that the apps are hibernated is using the Hibernate + Lock screen shortcut.
@DavidMKD:
You are using it in root or boost mode? Does Supersu show Greenify in its logs?
Update/reinstall Supersu.

You are running Supersu and not SuperUser? Normally this happens if granting root permission is somehow ****ed up. So are you sure Greenify was specifically granted root priveleges?
How long did you wait after screen off to check? Sometimes it takes 3 to 5 minutes for autohibernation.

That was one of my questions here how long does it take and why isn't instant like the shortcut that the app has. It's SuperSU and i was just removing and flashing and what not so that's not the problem. Stamina mode is disable every other module is disable but still doesn't hibernate as it should. I even set the default permission in SuperSU to granted without pompit

It is intentionally set to hibernate after a short delay so that if you had second thoughts after screen off and wanted to work on an app already running, it won't consume much battery or time. Atleast this is what the Dev said earlier.
I have no other ideas for your issue, sorry.
