So yesterday I unlocked the bootloader and root my OPX, and today I've installed cyanogenmod 13. I have also downloaded Root Checker to check if I am still root or not, and it says that I am not a root user anymore.
Do I have to root again? And if so, which steps do i have to take?
Thank you in advance

I would recommend checking out this article http://www.cyanogenmods.org/forums/topic/enable-root-access-cm13cyanogenmod-13-roms/
It seems CM13 has an option in the Developer Settings. I cannot confirm this as I don't have it installed, or never have had experience with Cyanogen. But what it seems is that the conventional flashing method of the SuperSU.zip is for most other versions of Android and their tweaked variants (e.g OOS), including CM11 and 12 but 13 is different.

Hi, i am a complete noob.
I recently rooted my phone without flashing a new kernel using the cwm recovery mod busybox installer on this site. However, since then i have updated my firmware over kies but not a full update, just a small one. Now although root checker says i have root, my root apps can't gain root access. Would really appreciate any help oli could get on this matter.
Running XWLPI on my phone. Any more info needed i can provide but dont know what is required.

EDIT: The link in the first reply worked, I used the unroot all file to clear everything and then the signed superuser only file to root. worked like a charm

I've followed all the steps on the foru as to how to root my Tab (7510) but haven't gained root access. First, let me say that I've had my Galaxy Nexus phone rooted for more than 6 months so I'm not a noob to rooting.
I've successfully installed TWRP v2.2.0 recovery. Then, in TWRP I installed Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip. It successfully installed.
Once I reboot I see SuperUser and it will run. However, when I run Titanium Backup the app informs me that it can't obtain root access. I've also installed and run Root Checker Basic and it also says I don't have Root access.
Could it be that the zip file I installed was for Honeycomb? If so, where is the link to SuperUser for ICS?
Thanks for your help.
I have same problem. All seems to go well with Superuser app etc but root access fails.

sapper,
I solved it. As I suspected, I was using the Honeycomb version of superuser which wouldn't root ICS. I found the ICS superuser here. I installed it via TWRP and was granted super user access. Good luck.
Brilliant - fixed it for me too.
Thanks so much
TWRP help
Where did you guys find the TWRP 2.2.0 that works with the P7510? I can't find anything to use for recovery mode on mine. I go the the TWRP site and I can only get the the 2.3 page and they only support the Tab7.7, not the 10

Let me start off by saying I'm a total noob. I have rooted my device before, but that was so long ago I forgot everything. Anyway I don't remember how my tablet got this way because I haven't used it in a while, but I have superuser installed yet I have no root access. I opened up the Voodoo Rootkeeper and it says super user app is installed, device is rooted, but root permission hasn't been granted.
So I tried to root again on top of it hoping it would work but now I just have another superuser app. Somebody please help me get root access.

Use motochopper to root it properly.

Thats what I used this last time when I tried to root it. It installed the second superuser app and when I opened it, it said that I needed to update binary or something like that. But I still had no root access after using motochopper.

I had the same issue after the last OTA. Root was lost and OTA rootkeeper didn't work.
This worked for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038464
After successfully unlocking and installing TWRP and root, I went on to install this (but you can stop here if you don't want a different ROM): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674827
I'm delighted by this ROM. Much better than stock.

I did a lot of searching, and tried several methods, but I couldn't find a solution which worked. Is your Prime still under warranty? If not, there's no reason not to unlock.

No its not. I just have no reason to unlock. I dont care about custom ROMs and I would like to be able to return it to stock if I want to later.
Hi
I have a Lenovo S960S running 4.4.2, I've discovered it's a fake device and almost nothing is what I thought I have purchased. I mention this because I have almost no support for my mobile.
Initially I could root the phone using VROOT, then I installed Supersu and afterwards delete the chinese Root app. Everything was OK until y have updated my version (from needrom), everything works perfectly and better than before but there's no way to root the phone again. I've tried all kind of alternative root methods without any success. I can't root again.
As far as I know, there's no custom recovery for this device up to date or a ROM version for flash tools...
I'd appreciate a lot your help.

Hi,
I installed the CM12.1 nightly on my SGP521 using the guide on the CM wiki. So my bootloader is unlocked. I installed superSU via the CM recovery but it didn't work of course. But then I read scattered hints that I need to downgrade my firmeware.
1. Could you please point me to the right files to downgrade my tablet?
2. Could you confirm that, after flashing the downgrade that I could then root the phone by flashing the file from this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2-tablet/general/update-t3082546
3. Or kindly tell me what to do instead please.

You simply can enable root on CM in the settings: Enable the developer settings by clicking several times on the build-number. No need to install anything. SuperSU should also work, though. No problems here with root.

Awesome, thank you! It worked and then I installed the SuperSU 2.48 and AdAway - perfect!
