Any help to fix this problem and be able to use these apps like wifi tether and root explorer would be great

Rooted but not Rooted

I rooted my phone following these instructions. All seemed great. I then downloaded BusyBox and it says I am root but can't install as I "may not have nand root access".
Also when I connect to the Terminal Emulator I downloaded from the market place and from ADB SHELL I get "Permission denied" when trying to su. Any ideas??
I followed Part 1 and Part 2 in the video. JuiceDefender shows I am root and so does BusyBox. I also have SuperUser application but nothing shows in the logs or in the application list. I figured I get notified if an app asks for SU but nothing notified me. Just "Permission Denied".
Still no idea. Fiddling around with it and it still thinks it's rooted in some applications but a adb shell or terminal emulator (on the phone) and it says SU permission denied.
Do you have a superuser icon?!
yep. sure do. it shows empty logs and applications.
Try and install setcpu or wifi tether and see what u get? If u install setcpu and try and use it and get denied u will know right away if u r really rooted. same with wifi tether, it will say denied!

WTF... LOL
Okay, so I download Wireless Tether for Root. Installs fine. Opens fine. Start tethering and get prompted to allow root access from SuperUser. I allow and tethering starts no problem.
So, how come I can't get SU as root? How come I can't install BusyBox (maybe nand not unlocked)?
Problem resolved.
Re-rooted with Unrevoked 3 and it works. Funny because unrevoked failed.

[Q] Unable to run Terminal Emulator on adam

Alright,
I'm starting to feel like a complete fool, as I seem to have lost all of the knowledge or ability to solve complications that I had gained from working with XDAndroid on my phone.
I'm trying to use the wpa_supplicant directions as mentioned in the other thread I started in the wrong section, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930163
I need either adb access(Which I can't get working right[Edit: This may be issues from the first time I installed it in win7, I'll keep fiddling with this, but I'd still love to see others chime in on terminal usage]) or terminal access to get in and modify the file to allow ad-hoc tethering.
However, when I run terminal emulator, it force closes with "Sorry! The application Terminal Emulator (process com.android.term) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Has anyone been able to get any terminal to run on the adam? Everything I've read says that it's pretty much superuser access already, but that could be wrong.
All help appreciated.
You should be changing the supplicant on your phone not Adam to get Wifi tether to function right...
But to get Android Terminal to function with root on Adam you need to be root and unlocked by using the Eden Plus guide or some similar method. Once you have root and unlock you will need superuser app to give root permissions to Android Terminal. Then Android Terminal should function as expected.
Forgot to add, you could also use ADB instead of Android Terminal on Adam. Would probably give you the same thing but might be easier to use.

superuser keep requesting permission

I have rooted my wildfire with revoked3. right now whatever I use a root app, it will prompt me to provide access to root EVERYTIME it needs to accesss the root. I have checked "remember" but it doesn't seem to work against it.
When I use titanium backup, it keeps on pop up root request for me to accept. It's getting a bit annoying. Please help, thanks!

[Q] Need some help with Superuser Permissions

I rooted my phone with the G2 walkthrough in the forums. It had me install Superuser Permissions, which worked at first. Now when I try to use something that required root access it just tells me I do not have root access. When I open the super user program, it just sits at a blank black screen. When I open up a new app(like the 3 different screenshot apps I downloaded) the apps open and tell me I do not have root access. I do have root access because I can get Titanium Backup to run and it also requires root access. I cannot remove/uninstall Superuser Permissions to swap it with another working super user app.
I saw this article http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
I tried to install that app from the market and it fails to install(I assume due to the fact that I already have a super user app running). That said I cannot remove the installed app(thats not working). In that article it says to open terminal and type a "remount" command that may be different for each phone. I tried the command that they suggested(for his Nexus) but it did not seem to work on my G2.
So what do I do? Does anyone know what command I need to run from terminal to complete those directions to get a functioning Superuser app working? Does anyone know how to fix the existing "Superuser Permissions" app? Any suggestions?
try a reboot

I already have. The Superuser Permissions app still only comes up with a black screen. No options when I hit "menu" and it does continue to stay active after I back out to the home screen as it does show up in the Task Killer list. That said, I am not getting a pop up that asks if I want to give an app superuser access. The apps that I alraedy had given permissions to(like Titanium Backup) still work fine, but no new app that require SU access will work.
Any other suggestions.

Have you tried clearing data for the Superuser app? See if that resets it to a working state.
did you do a perma root or temp root? If you did the Temp root, then the reboot caused you to lose your root. You need to re temp root then do the perma root.

Its perm root. I still have the temp root app on the SD card(not installed) but its perm rooted.

Well.. not only did that not work, it made it worse. Now my titanium backup(that I have accessed daily for weeks since I rooted my phone) tells me I am not rooted after I cleared the data from the super user program...
And...
Now when I go to terminal and type su I dont get the # anymore.. it says permission denied...
AND
I tried using Visionary for a temp root, and after it trys to temp root, I still cant access SU from terminal.
I have not updated my OS to my knowledge.
Any ideas?
Anyone have any insight into this??
At this point my phone basically isnt rooted anymore. I have even tried visionary and it seems to temp root but nothing works.. I can get SU in terminal etc....
Superuser Permissions is still installed but doesnt work.
I tried using Visionary to remove root. It says my phone doesnt appear to be rooted.
Soo at this point, my phone has none of the advantages of being rooted, yet it is technically rooted(because I cant re-root it the same way using visionary and terminal).
What can I do??
Try installing a new ROM if you already have clockwork installed.

Can flashing a ROM remove SU?

I still seem to have root access, in that I can continue to flash roms, use ShootMe screengrabber, and even get the "#" in Terminal Emulator when typing in SU. But when I use either one of my wireless hotspot apps, Barnacle and/or Wireless Tether, I get a "cannot launch, you may not have SU access."
Have you seen this before? I just installed Virtuous Fusion. Is there such thing as "partial rooting?"

No, there's no such thing. If apps complain that they can't get root - it means that they're either not given privileges, or they don't ask for root access in a way compatible with the SU in the specific ROM.
try uninstalling and reinstalling superuser app sometime itll not recognize it and ignore it
Just to add to the above comment. SU is just an app. Its possible for a rom to not have it (though all devs/chefs always add it before releasing the rom) and its not likely but if so, all apps that need root access will complain. So yeah just try installing SU from market and you should be good.
