Ok now im having problems with themes from the toolbocks. I click on the theme I want and it says downloading and installing then looks like its rebooting then its looks like its installing it but then it says aborted. I then need to select the reboot phone to get back

It will reboot the phone and go in to recovery mode and install the theme on it's own. If the installation aborted that means the download didn't finish right.
Once your phone is booted up go in to the file manager and in the liberty folder there is a downloads folder, click on it and you will see the different themes that you downloaded. The ones that don't work but are listed there need to be deleted so you can redownload and attempt the install again.

I wanted to add, you are much better off downloading the themes while connected to wi-fi then 3g.

It worked thank you. I think I just didn't let it download all the way

Glad to hear you got it working. I had the same problem the first time I tried switching themes and realized what it was and what needed done.

Super user app crashes and WiFi tether doesn't work after update

So, i have lates CyanogenMod 6.1.1 and had Tethering working.
Now i've done S-Off and installed latest radio update and now WiFi tethering would not work, mentions something about su permissions.
So i try running su app and it just crashes.

download the one for froyo and flash it from recovery, it should fix your superuser crashing

sweeeet, that fixed it!!!!
thanks

Also, if you go to applications and "clear data" for the program it will stop crashing, although you will need to grant new permissions.

you mean for the older SU app?
i've already updated, but good to know.

Root request issues....

I'm rooted running honeyvillian with stock kernel, super user keeps force closing. I can gain root in terminal via the su command, root explorer is granted su permissions but titanium, setcpu and rom manager, Acer recovery all give a permissions denied.
I've updated the su binary, unrooted and re rooted, seems root is fine then unexpectedly starts to force close, I was going to run fix permissions in rom manager yet was denied tried in terminal fix_permissions not recognized should I attempt fix permissions via cwm?
Or should I return to stock, unroot and start all over?
Thanks for the input.

Contact Honeyvillain DEVS to report Honeyvillain issues. BAM! -OR- Go back to stock. BAM!
... BAM!

Will do, thanks for the helpful advice.

Beware Superuser 3.04 on android market.

Beware of the recent update to 3.04, there are frequent reports of apps requiring root access not working due to superuser fcing. YMMV.

Yes in the market hit uninstall and it will revert back to the previous version

Thanks for the quick response, however I've done that -having the same result...Tried apps after that...still no go. Ran root checker "No Root Acess." Unless its the Titanium Backup update. Other than those 2, I haven't done anything else.

Uninstall su and reflash your rom
Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.

Oops
Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.

So far unsuccessfull at uninstalling su...theres only the update option from the market...at this point lost..

I have had the same issue. So far the only workable solution that I have come up with is to:
- Delete the App data for Superuser (in Manage Apps).
- Run Super User and change the Automatic Response to Allow (in superuser preferences).
Not ideal because any app that requests su will get it. Have to keep an eye on the log until a fix if there are any apps that you do not want to have su.

Thanks...was able to delete su app data and access su...yet still no access to root apps (su 2.3.6.3)

Just reflash rom

No need to reflash roms or uninstall anything from from your phone guys.... The fix is to uninstall updates of superuser in market.... Once done this go to your applications on your phone and click on superuser app and hit ok when the popup screen comes up.... And your apps that require root access will work once again....

Confirmed. Recent update fixed issues.

my fix was...
Uninstall updates as stated in earlier post ;-) Then a restart or Reboot is all is needed. no need to reinstall the rom thats not the answer.

No issues here, have the latest superuser.

Downgraded, Restarted, rebooted su force closes still...any suggestions?

The fix seemed to have worked for me. Glad, because this has been killing me all day!

Thanks evo4gnoob for the keen eye and the catch! I've already uninstalled superuser -- awaiting a more stable release.
Once again, thanks a million! =)

The new SU screwed my phone too, but I just installed, and flashed a older one from recovery, and all is well.

Good for Enterprise Supercurio Root Keeper anyone get it working?

Hi guys,
Anyone using GFE on there rooted samsung epic? My company checks for root and was wondering if the Supercurio root keeper will work to do a temp unroot and have access to GFE. Any idea if I need to rename or remove superuser.apk if I use the Supercurio root keeper?
Thanks..

Why not just make a backup via cwm and have a stock non rooted rom running? Do they check for just SU or the 9 yards? If so you could odin in the stock el30 package by toadlife, odin a recovery , make a backup and flash whatever rom then if your company decides to check restore the back up and you'll be find

The whole 9 yards I'm afraid . That is an idea but was hoping not to flip back and forth from stock to rooted. But if there is no other way it's probably the route I'm going to have to take.
Also it makes sense that it should work but since I never went back and forth from stock to rooted from CWM. The question is coming to my mind will it work? Or do I need to Odin to switch back and forth.

What is GFE?
Edit: why would it even care about root...

I use GFE and I am rooted using mostly stock ei22 rom from xbtx. I thought GFE app had some sort of checking for rooted devices not that the company checked for rooted phone. How would the company check to see that your phone was rooted ?

Good For Enterprise, it's an app to get your corporate email on your phone.
I use it, and we don't check for root.... I seem to recall from my GFE training that they can check for it, we don't.

I use GFE and I also have it deployed to hundreds of users at my company. I'm not sure if I'm somehow using a different version of the Good management console, but I don't remember having an option to check for rooted devices? I'll double check tomorrow, but I feel like I would remember seeing that option.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

GFE the app has a check. From what I read it looks for superuser.apk and whatever else is root related. Coworker of mine has the same phone and rooted rom and got a message that the phone won't provision with gfe because against company policy i.e. phone is rooted.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

the donate version of superuser has ghost mode, the apk hides and you can only access it through a dialer code you select. you can set it to refuse and superuser requests while in ghost mode or to allow based of your settings.
can you check for superuser without superuser permissions?
i'm sure you need something more but a chance to plug elite, i couldn't refuse.

Thanks. I'll give the ghost superuser a try. Maybe a combination of SuperCurio rootkeeper and this will work.
Well I got the superuser elite but it looks like ghost mode just hides the icon. Not sure if this will work. As GFE will still find superuser in both the /sbin and /xbin.
Update- Still not in compliance tried both rootkeeper and super user elite.

Unfortunately, this will not work. I'm not sure what doesn't match up, but each time you flash, even from a backup, it will want you to reactivate with the Good server. Fortunately, I work in IT and can get a PIN in about 4 seconds, but for someone who is at the mercy of their IT department...flashing then begging them for a new PIN isn't a good option

Weird. I backup with MyBackup Pro, and I don't have to reset my PIN every time.....

From what i gather as long as you backup good in offline mode. It wont require a pin everytime you flash. I haven't tested this my self but have read people having success using this method.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

That could be, I only turn mine on when I'm oncall.
Can you set your PIN to never expire? Last job we had that, so the handful of users who had it didn't have to get a new PIN every time.
I've been looking for Jailbreak/Root detection, but haven't found it yet. Saw it in a manual but it didn't say where to set it.

Ae these companies you guys are talking about using exchange email servers or what?? What is so different that you are using this gfe app rather than stock email app? I run corporate exchange from stock email app and no issues with being rooted however I am the network admin too though lol.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

Supposedly, GFE allows for better data protection. We pay for it because of the potential for PHI* on the device. We do have OMA here, but until we upgrade our servers to Exchange2010 we don't have as much control over the device and can't remotely wipe it if it goes missing.
Or so I'm told. /shrug

So I went ahead and tried to unroot my rom. By just deleting superuser.apk and su by using adb. Only issue I'm seeing is that everytime I reboot su and superuser.apk come back and the phone is rooted again. Any ideas why? Surely GFE will not work if root returns after reboot .

You're using a rooted kernel.

Thanks k0nane! That makes sense.

I use a combo of renaming superuser.apk and installing supersu and freezing gfe to bypass the checks.... pm me if u need info.
