I was opening up a few apps that require root access after Nox updated to 5.0.0.1 just to find that they freeze up. So I close out these apps and try to restart them and that is when I am presented with a "Root access is required to run x" and SuperUser is not asking for root access.
Root is indeed enabled in Nox, and since SuperUser is built into Nox, there is no way to clear its data or anything. I am at a roadblock
does anybody know what the problem could be or how to fix it?
Try bluestacks or leapdroid, because there are the best android emulators for root.
nox already rooted
go to sittings and check on root and save sitting + delete super user app

So, my ROM comes preloaded with a root app that I've never heard of, and I want to use Superuser (and the Elite I paid for).
The bundled app came with a 'cleanup/uninstall' script, that I ran, that promised to remove itself and it's root-granting abilities.
Now, even though I've got Superuser (Elite) installed, apps are saying I don't have root.
How do I configure Android (or SU) to use SU as my root-granting application?
Thanks.
Fix permission by recovery! It should work
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...
I've downloaded several root checker apps, and the all say I do not have root access, but I have root only apps installed, like greenify ad titanium backup. Whats happening here?

Your device may not be fully rooted. Which means that you have the app installed but the binary is not. Download Terminal Emulator from the Play Store. Then open it and type "su" (without quotes). If you get a new line saying "[email protected]:/ #" then you are rooted. If it says something like "su: not found" then you don't have the binary and you have to install it either via the superuser/supersu/other app (if you have a custom kernel with system write protection off, such as KofilaKernel or other) or by flashing a zip with the binary in recovery (you can find it here).
None of my apps have root access and I've installed several SU programs. I can't enable Write access in file explorer ES b/c that requires root access and when I open superSU it says it needs to be updated but neither selecting normal install neither install with CWRP updates SuperSU. What did I do wrong with the rooting process? Anyone else had this problem.
From what I have read CM no longer comes rooted it needs to be rooted with a separate process. I do not know why?
You need to give root access to apps and adb--no need for SU any more. The setting is under "Developer Options".
thanks

I already sold the way old barnes and noble tablet. I'll try that when I root my samsung S2 tablet. I'm waiting for android 6.0 version of CM to be released if it hasn't already.
One thing that I keep reading about android malware, is that it needs to gain root access to do its dirty work.
My android phone is already rooted and I have SuperUser (SU) installed. And whenever an app runs that needs root access (such as titanium backup), SU asks me if I want to grant root to that app.
So, my question is this - can I rest assured that I won't get infected because if for some reason malware makes it into my phone (through one of the many exploits like the MMS/Stagefright thing), I will see it try to run because SU will ask me for permission, and I can simple deny it?
Yes, Lookout security recently discovered a malware that does the exact thing you mentioned.
