About Supersu - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Supersu chainfire installed on my phone and have check that it is root. But when I am going to use recoveryprograms for files every app says it isnt root. I dont find any menu in the settings for allow apps to connect to the phone. Is there any allow app section in the Supersu app?

There's a tab in SuperSU to grant/block root access for each app.

set the permission to Grant
hit the survival mode
hit su during boot
That's not solution.
It should help su to get access easily

Removing superuser / restoring root

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
Hit the 'thanks' button if it helps

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

[Q] Slim bean 4.2.2 - unroot

Hi,
I really like the slim bean rom.
However, I would like to unroot my phone.
Can I unroot my phone and still keep slim bean?
If yes, how?
Thanks for your help!
in the superuser app settings
Thanks Glebun!
However, it is already set to disabled.
For example my Good for Enterprise app still fails the compliance check.
So I would like to know if I can completely unroot my phone while still keeping Slim Bean.
what superuser app are you using? SuperSU allows for a full unroot
Its built into settings

Exactly.
I can't find a superuser.apk on my phone.
It's not visible in as an app anywhere.
There is no option to uninstall if I open superuser via the settigns - superuser menu..
I've searched the internet to no end and I'm getting more and more confused.
Hope you can help.

I did install supersu, but again installing it and then uninstalling it still leaves me with the "# Superuser" setting in the settings menu and it's still rooted.
By the way: I just installed another superuser app (I think it is from the CM mod) and I get a notice saying "Normal, the 'su' file needs to be edited. Choose an installation method. 'Via recovery' is recommended for HTC-devices.
So no succes there.
installing and the uninstalling it will have no effect. read my post - supersu has a setting for a full unroot, use it

root consists of 2 elements
1) The app (or settings) which is a gateway to root if you like, but not actually root itself
2) The SU binary /system/bin/su. This is what actually gives root. The above just allows or denies root access. Using one of the superuser apps, you should be able to unroot, removing this. The settings menu will always remain but means nothing.
You may just be able to use a file manager with root permissions to delete the binary.
that is what I meant

Guys: you're the best!
Turns out that I had to reboot (duh) before the change took effect.
Now I have slimbean 4.2.2 unrooted and can make use of Good for Enterprise.
Thanks a bunch!
A small summary:
1. Install SuperSU.
2. Use the "Full unroot" function of SuperSU.
3. Reboot :laugh:

After installing SlimROM 4.3 Build 2, I lost root?

After installing SlimROM 4.3 Build 2, I lost root?
I was originally rooted on the stock 2.1 and had the SuperUser app as well. However, after upgrading, Root Checker says I'm not rooted anymore?
try opening up SU if its not installed and update the binaries if that doesnt work flash the SU zip if your still having errors try going into your settings and grant SU rights to whats needed

Then I tried to install this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu
and it installed but when I open the app, it says:
- I have to update the binaries but updating them fails
- I have to uninstall superUser, but I can't do that anymore because I flashed zip?
Try dirty flashing the rom flash again and wipe dalvik and cache a d reboot then open rom manager and click fix permission from within the app. If that doesn't work download busy box installer that should update your binaries it's weird issue your having
EDIT: i found this for you didn't realize earlier that 4.3 SU is different than before Root access works in another way in 4.3 then it was before. It is disabled by default. If you want to have root access go into your Superuser application or in Settings->Developer options and enable it. Please note as well that currently some third party kernels are around which may break root.

In slim rom go to
System settings-> advanced options -> Super User ->top right key for settings
then change super user access for your APPS
and choose declared permission

This worked like a charm. Thank you.
Just in case, if anyone makes these changes to their Super User settings, and Super SU bypasses and deny's access automatically, just go back to the settings again and Long Press whatever was denied and "Allow" it.
Another tip, I personally just went ahead and clicked on Auto-Allow so I don't have to go back to the settings so much.

I followed this guide to root my Xperia P. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335992
It worked. Then i downloaded Titanium Backup root checker etc... It all worked fine.
After a few hours. I opened titanium backup it said i have no root access. So then i went on Root Checker. It says it has not been rooted.

Try the settings in your superuser or SU app than, different ROM;s and builds might have it different locations

try to set it on the app also and clear cache and reboot to see what happens. Some kernels may have setting in their kernel manager too, if you do have one, you can check that too

Never happened to me. Maybe it's because the update process failed.
Try to re-root again.

Alright so now i have the same problem from the start.
So you did not tamper with any superuser settings? Your case seems an isolated case to me

No. I root the phone using the one click method on my first post i open root checker, it says i have got root access. Then a few minutes later it says i do not have root access. and then when it says update binary (SuperSU) it says installation failed.

Very strange.
Try to open SuperSU and update first thing after you install it and before doing any su checkes.

[Q] Superuser annoying repetitive pop up

I have installed an app (Devise service) which needs root. Whenever Superuser gives it root permissions, it makes a toast popup that says "Devise service has been given Superuser permissions".
My problem is that it shows this popup every time the app is used or opened. This is annoying. How can I disable this toast notification so I don't see it anymore? thank you

Tell the name of your su app. Outdated binary? It means you need to update the binaries of the app, just do it & the pop up go way for sure.

Just update it.
open the superuser application hit menu, then preferences, there should be a selection to toggle notifications, toggle it to off.
for supersu, open the app, hit menu, then settings, there is a selection to toggle notifcations, toggle it to off.
