what if i reroot because of needing warranty service or something?
Root puts three or four files on your phone and runs an exploit to get superuser or "root" access then one of those programs keeps root and the other helps do root activities like with the shell. So adding a few files to your phone will not ruin your setup.
Now the things you do to your phone after you get root may mess up your current configuration so the question is do you really need root?

You are correct since you really like your current config might I suggest as soon as you root you install koush's bootstrap and install it and go into recovery and make a backup before you remove apps either with root explorer, terminal emulator etc. That way if something does go wrong while you tweak you can always restore the backup you made. Instructions for all of this is in the forums or google.

Hello all,
I have root access (I can rename/edit files owned by root user, using ADB) but whenever I launch any app that requires root access, SuperUser denies it.
I already tried changing the settings for SuperUser from prompt to always allow and the other options. Nothing worked.
I am running 2.3.3 OTA updated.
Any ideas?
Thanks
You can try to use other su managment app, find in market SuperSu and remove Superuser.

You can also try to update your su binary via Super User.

Hey folks.
I've just gotten aware of the fact that Superuser does not really work on my device.
Not that the apps dont have root, it's that theres no Superuser popup when an app wants it.
Also, the app-list in Superuser is blank. No entry whatsoever.
Apps that use root work w/o any problems. (Titanium Backup, Adaway, Adblock for example)
I've used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887 to root. ioroot8 at that time if I remember right.
Superuser itself says that the new binarys(checking for update) wont work.
So I assume that my whole freakin phone runs with root-access. Any tips? Delete Superuser and reroot ?
I had this after giving super user access in one application then changing my super user app. To fix it I downloaded supersu and went to options then choose uninstall and change super user app. Then I downloaded supersu from market and used titanium backup top clear it's cache. Coincidentally you can setup most su apps to allow root without notification. You can go this as long as you only user apks from market and ones you trust.

Hola
I rooted my phone since the beginning, all working well!
Although... when I use a root required app, it just grants the permissions.
There's no window asking for permission of something like that.
I checked the setting from superuser, I checked ''ask permission'' but still nothing.
Any ideas?
Download supersu from playstore, problem fixed.

I have LG optimus one and Iam try new rom Omnirom beta 7 and beta 7.1. Iam saw ther isnt any superuser app and Iam try flash SuperSU (chainfire) and SuperUser (CloakWorkMod) with cwm recowery 6.4.0.6 and twrp 2.7.0.0.
Now I can run some apps like a total commander with superuser aces, Rom manager, but Iam style not can run titanium backup and lot of more. Sorry my English. Thanks for all reply.
Just FYI it is recommended to run twrp and su. Regarding you question: can you use the functionality that requires root in the apps you mentioned to be working? If not you simply have no su access at all. In case you can run them go into the su UI under settings and see if you can manually grant su permission to TiB and the like. It seems strange to me that super user should only work for some of your apps. I might be wrong though, I'm no expert.

This dont work
Iam dont saw a easy think. My result app hawe root aces but adb no.
How to repair. Settings -> for developers ( If you dont see it, you must go to settings -> About phone and seven times touch build number)
In setings you mustvote apps & adb in defoult only apps.
