[Q] Superuser Problems Help! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, Ok so i updated my Huawei u8650 to android 4.4.2 and something went wrong with my root. I can open superuser and it shows my binary and all that and it says im rooted but when i go to a app that requires root access like terminal emulator for example and i type in the command su. nothing happens it just goes to the next line. and i tried to mount my SD card partition in link2sd and it said that the script cant be created because its not allowed to su.
I thought it could be that superuser just wasn't allowing permissions but i open superuser and there's no apps, no logs or anything. I checked my settings and they're all fine and i even tried to use SuperSU instead and i still got the same thing. There's no prompt to allow access either. I don't know if the apps are just not trying to get root access or what? No app can get root permission and i need to get this fixed so i can fix some bugs on the rom. Please Help.
Thanks to all who attempt or do help. Ill be sure to hit thanks for u.

i think you should change the superuser app that you are using
download the latest version of super user

i rooted by SRSroot first then first got the error then i unrooted and re-rooted by using the kingo root method but still received the same error. they are both windows programs u can run for root on multiple devices. They use USB debugging to root then device reboots and bam your rooted.
i used those methods because i tried to just flash the binary files through cwm recovery and it never actually installed into system. The two methods above installed binary and rooted my device but i cant give root access to any apps including superuser or supersu.

If anyone can help me with this it would be appreciated because i hit a wall and don't know what to do. No apps can get root permissions and i cant fix my play store, WiFi, speakers or theme chooser until the root is properly working because the methods to fix those bugs need root to function. so please if anyone has knowledge or any idea why i have root but cant get access please help me out.

If there is a custom recovery available for your device I would recommend flashing that and then flashing the latest SuperSU.zip package in recovery. Part of the problem is the orginal Superuser (by ChainsDD) while excellent at the time is now extremely outdated and no longer really be maintained, as a result make sure you flash a Superuser package compatible with Android 4.4.2 such as the latest version of SuperSU.

Where can i find it at? I have recovery on here but i cant seem to find the file. At this point i'll try anything.

Ok so i found the SuperSU.zip v1.99 via another XDA Forum(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053) and i flashed it then rebooted. Now my device says there is no binary and i am not rooted. I tried reflashing but the .zip does nothing. what should i try next?

You can try flashing Koush's Superuser in recovery, after please run root checker and tell me what is says it the status of your device.

OK so root checker says i have root access but i still cant access root permissions in apps. I took some screenshots of Link2sd, Terminal Emulator and root explorer so you can see what exactly is going on. I get some weird error in link2sd and root explorer that i have no clue what it is.

Anyone got any knowledge of this error?

[Q] Moved superuser apk and broke root access

Hello. I have rooted my Galaxy SII v 2.3.6 on Gingerbread build EL29 from sprint using the SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED_NODATA-OneClick method from odin found in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1433101 . My super user app was working fine until I accidentally moved it using a file explorer. The super user apk is in my systems/app folder but I can no longer access the program and none of my super user apps work. When I have tried to reroot the phone the oneclick method completes and says things went as planned, but no apk and no root access is available. Can someone please help me restore my root access. Thanks in advance, and apologies if I am in the wrong forum.
Try downloading superuser from the Play Store. Delete the superuser you already have beforehand though.

install from play store did not work
Thank you for the suggestion. Two issues, when I go to the store it says the app is already installed. Also when I try to delete the existing version, I get a permissions denied message. I am still stuck here.

Try to reroot by flashing a rooted kernel, rather than SOC.

Make sure when trying to delete, mount on root explorer should be r/w not r/o
Fixed it
Thanks very much. I used the [e4gtauto-sfx.exe] from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728 to unroot and clean up any unneeded files from the phone then I went back to the odin root and now I have restored root access. Thanks again.

[Q] Root for Huawei G525

Just got my G525, and i must say its really nice!
While i was browsing the default apps i noticed a Chinese SU app that couldn't understand.. so i deleted it and install Koush SU... but for my bad luck ( i guessed that if it already had a SU app that it would be rooted) sadly it isn't Root.
Anyone have any ideas how to root the G525?
Thanx in advance

Did it work?
I am very new to this and in the past my older brother was taking care of all my "technology problems" . I just bought one for myself, since I have just lost my old huawei..... I am currently still in china, but planning to go back to germany. I really want to get my google account restored/google market. I read a lot of threads regarding this topic, but still want to clarify some questions. I would rly appreciate ur help/input.
I know that in order to get google market running on the huawei g525, u will need to root the phone. Once it is rooted u will need to find a english/german android version ROM for the phone. There seems to be some talking about entering the recovery mode somehow (i dont rly understand this step). After the ROM is on the phone, u can download google market and access ur google account?
Here goes my questions :
1.) How to root my phone? Special program needed or pressing three key combo (volume + power + call)?
2.) Where to find a english/german android version ROM? On the website of Huawei? How to install it?
3.) Further steps?
Apparently there is another way to this all, by using a SD card and some kind of recovery zip:
Last option that i read was after rooting ur phone and installing 2-3 apk files.:
These are the steps:
1.Make sure your phone rooted and the R.E Explore been installed
2.Make sure you have GoogleLoginservice.apk and GoogleserviceFramework.apk
3.Copy the 2 apk(GLoginservice and GserviceFrame) into your SD card.
4.Open RE.Explore and find the 2 apk(GoogleLoginservice.apk and GoogleserviceFramework.apk), Copy them.
5.Paste them into System/App.
6.Restart your Phone.
7.You can login gmail/gtalk/Google play with your Google account now!
Thanks in advance for the help and sorry for the long thread !

There is one, it's really easy...
1) Install ADB Drivers and enable developer mode (google for that)
2) Download 'Impactor' from http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/
3) Open the app, you will see '# drop SuperSU su to /system/xbin/su'
3) Click 'Start'
4) It will check for exploits, if it's successful; continue, otherwise stop here
5) Install 'Superuser' from the PlayStore
6) Click 'tap to check for updates' and update
7) There will be a request for superuser access, accept it
8) Rooted!
Greetings
PS Just did this, it worked very well!

How to unroot G525? Thanks
Huawei G525 stock rom with internal storage (/system) problems!
Hello all,
Huawei G525 owners, could you please verify original stock ROM () with error in /system partition?
Specifically I have in the local storage a folder named e2fsck_log which in every reboot fills up with error files regarding:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p17: Inode 14881 has imagic flag set.
/dev/block/mmcblk0p17: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY. (i.e., without -a or -p options)
I have no idea if I can ran e2fsck because with adb I only get a $ shell (not root), and if I don't want to root the phone.
Does anybody else has the same problem? Please check if you have e2fsck folder with contents in Local Storage and confirm (that might be a stock rom Bug or something else - internal memory block problem!)...
Thanks

Kingo Android ROOT is better than VROOT because it's in ENGLISH. Even there is one VROOT english version, you will end up with chinese on your phone. nusigalaxy, thanks for the info.

Look man, superuser is ROOT. Either your phone is rooted or it is not. A rooted phone can run apps that require it like ClockworkMod ROM Manager, Titanium Backup, Greenify, Wireless Tether for Root Users, File managers like Root Explorer or ES File Manager if you want to be able to access the system areas of the phone. So far as I know, there is no "SuperUser of ClockworkMod". If your phone is rooted (You will see superuser or "Super SU" in your app drawer. Here is a free app from the playstore that will tell you if your phone is rooted or not.
Root Checker
Install it and use it to see if your phone is still rooted or if you lost root somehow. If you still have root, then when CWM starts, it will ask for root privileges and the first time it asks, you will be prompted to grant it, once, for a certain time period, or forever. For stuff like CWM, root file managers, and Titanium Backup, you always grant root forever and you will not be asked again until the app updates and requires you to okay granting root privileged or not, then you grand forever and leave it alone.
If you find out you do not have root or lost your root, then you have to root the phone and the procedure is different for different devices, versions, and ROMS. For that kind of help, you have to search for rooting <your particular device and android version number>

maybe the root version (clockWorkMod) work in this way and need the app for work.

[Q] Prestige 7G.....HELP PLEASE!

I wasn't sure where to post this, so I just posted it here. I have a Visual Land Prestige 7G (not 7L or 7) with android 4.1.1. I have tried EVERYTHING to root this device, but no dice. It is for my daughter, and came with LOADS of bloatware that she not only does not need, but is taking up a huge amount of space, and making the tablet run like cold molasses. I would just build a custom ROM for this thing if I knew anything about doing so. If anyone could help me get rid of this stuff, I would be immensely grateful as I have been fighting with it for days now! This is the first time I have run across a device that I can't figure out. I can usually fix things myself, or at the very least find info to guide me through the parts I did not know. I feel so defeated! lol! PLEASE someone help!

Have you tried Impactor? If not, try following the directions below. The guide was written for the Sero 7 Lt but Impactor works on many different devices, just skip the first part of the guide about accepting updates as that applies to the Sero 7 LT. If you need help installing ADB drivers use the program I suggest in the guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45543527
Hope this helps!
*EDIT* i see in one of your previous posts that someone already suggested Impactor but it looks like you may not have ADB drivers working properly if Impactor cant see the device. Does it show any info if you open a command prompt and type "adb devices"?
THANK YOU!!

Ok so I installed root checker, and it says I'm rooted. I have installed superuser, and App Master. However, I still cannot delete any apps like pre installed angry birds thats taking up 60mb on the internal memory. App Master (and also tried my already installed All in One Toolbox) goes through the motions, and says successfully uninstalled, but is only uninstalling the updates. I thought maybe it was a problem with the superuser app I had installed (by ChainsDD) so I downloaded the one from ClockworkMod. When I open that one I get the message "Binary must be updated". When I click install I get "There was an error installing superuser. Please send a log of the error to the developer"
Ummm.....
Nevermind. i think I fixed it. Not entirely sure what i did, but I know I had to redo the impactor. the SRT appscanner was stopping the payload. It was saying it was malicious. Super user installed after that, and it says it's uninstalling facebook now. I guess I'll see how this goes.

Ok scratch that. I am rooted, but still cannot delete bloatware! I have tried 4 uninstallers, all with the same results. Well, actually one says I need to be rooted. I downloaded two root checkers, and both say I AM rooted. Gggrrrrrrr....
Edit: Also tried delting from snap pea. It says "failed to uninstall app. Please grant SnapPea root privileges and try again" I granted SU, but still says the same thing :/

Ok scratch that. I am rooted, but still cannot delete bloatware! I have tried 4 uninstallers, all with the same results. Well, actually one says I need to be rooted. I downloaded two root checkers, and both say I AM rooted. Gggrrrrrrr....

Try using titanium back up to uninstall apps, let me know if it works. I always use SuperSU app since Impactor installs SuperSU binary into phone.

Tried titanium last night with no luck. even tried es file explorer, but tablet wont switch to rw. tried to install supersu just now, but it says installation failed. tried uninstalling the other su app and then install supersu, but no luck. seriously contemplating how far this thing would travel if i threw it out the window! lol
Further, I have also tried the basic r/w command in the terminal, (mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3) but since Im not very familiar with it, I wasn't sure what else to do. I could be wrong, but Im assuming my problem is the read only file system.
Man your lucky to get that far...rooted with impactor and downloaded and installed supersu and it is stuck updating the binary..for about 20 mins it's been saying.. "installing...please wait"

Have you guys been able to flash a recovery image (TWRP or ClockworkMod)??? And if so..have you tried to flash Superuser via recovery??? I have a friend who has the same tablet and he wants me to root/unlock his device...

[Q] How should I go about rooting my Prestigio 5450 DUO?

I have searched the web for rooting this kind of phone, and I have not found anything. All I know is that it's possible, since this guy did it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2641478
I presume it's the same as for the older versions, but I want to make sure.
OS version: 4.2.2
Kernel Version:3.4.5
Thank you.
According to this: http://www.srsroot.com/\supported your device is supported.
And how does this work?
This does not work, I tried it, and it said the rooting was complete. After I tried to install some root apps, they did not work. So I tried it again, but it says that I do have root access.
Hmm. Which superuser app did it install? It's not uncommon to need to either update the superuser app and / or update the SU binary (should prompt through the app if needed). Go to the Play Store and see if there is an update to the app, then open it and see if it prompts you to update the binary as well. If you don't have the Play Store on your device, just let me know which version of the SU app was installed and I'll see if there's is an update available. I don't get the chance to mess with many off brand products like this, so do not have direct experience, just tons of android experience in general.

Might try and install CWM recovery and flashing Chainfire's SuperSU zip if all else fails.
I used SRSroot if that is what you are asking.
If you are asking about what app I downloaded to test it, I used titanium, which told me that it could not access the root. I just downloaded it.

No, was referring to which Superuser app was installed during the root process. Typically this should be either Koush's SuperUser or Chainfire's SuperSU. And test with another app as Titanium can be a little weird with root access on some devices as well as needing Busybox to run properly and not all root methods also set up Busybox. Try any of these: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=rootchecker

Hello,
I have Prestigio Multiphone PAP4300 DUO, I tried all rooting crap and it didnt work. BUT one did worked. It is used on PC. You connect your phone to pc and then run the program, and choose which method you want to use(depends on phone). After some tries it worked. I dont remember what was the software called, but if I find it, I will surely edit my post.
There was no program installed during the rooting process.

Then VERY unlikely it worked. You can doublecheck and install this and see what it says: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu . It'll most likely say you are missing the SU binary and fail to install it for you without proper root. Other options include CWM recovery and a custom prerooted rom.
Rooting
If you still nid a root for PAP5450Duo I have this phone and this root app worked: download Framaroot 1.9.3 (use the Boromir exploit).
