Hi, i installed HD2 Mic Gain Control on an sd ics tostidroid as the mic was quiet in calls.
when i select Save Permanently it says "Do you really want to save settings to /etc/init.d/10mic_level?"
i accept and grant superuser permission.
but... after that i dont have that file??
however, i do have a 14mic_level but that has not been changed.
should i just uninstall? can i change the 14mic_level manually?

Hi gazzacbr, have you tried rebooting? I have 10mic_level where it should be. At first for some reason I was looking at /system/etc/init.d/ and it didn't show up, but it is there too now.
Hi, thanks, yes I have rebooted but still not there...
OK, just mounted system as rw with es explorer and now its there. I thought the su permission would have done that.
Will give a go now

Hi, guys i look for an answer......i rooted my htc hero, changed rom with last modaco, but when i tried to use some programs it gives me an error concerning root.
For example if i use screenshot program it notices me that i need to be rooted, how is it ossible if i'm already rooted?
Sorry for my english if i made some errors
"rooted" means that you can get root permissions if you want them (like running a program that needs those permission). but for security reasons you don't have this permissions always. so when something want these permissions this dialog shows up and wants your "OK" to give root permissions to this program. thats normal.
There is an app in the menu that is named "root" or something, this is where you set your permission rules, if I remember correctly
Thanx guys.....now the program I needed works.....dunno why yet, but the important is that it works
So im assuming that if you install that app to an UNrooted phone it just gives you a black screen when you open it?

It will always give you a black screen, rooted or not. It comes into play automatically when an app requests SU permissions. At that point you would receive a Superuser message asking to allow or deny. Hope that helps...

Ohh okay. Thanks! So this will sound really stupid, but how come we cant just install this apk and run rooted stuff with the superuser permissions on a regular phone?

Superuser.apk needs 'su', which is not on the phone and needs to be written to sections that are read-only.
hmm..
This is true... I should have thought about that haha
I had recently changed the lock sound on the Mytouch 4G and I cant remember how to do it, I remember using the terminal emulator and running a couple of commands but I cant remember.
Does anyone know the commands to copy something to the root of the phone.
Also, phone is perm rooted
just use root explorer
It comes back and says that it is a read only, so does that mean that the perma root didnt work?

No it means you have to click the button in the upper right that says mount r/w...so that you can manipulate files..

I went through the screens on the Root Explorer and I am able to do R/W on the root but when I go into system/media/ui it wont let me change it from R/O to R/W, when I did it earlier today I ran it through the terminal, the reason its gone is because I only had the temp root and it repaired itself when I restarted my phone
my phone does not even make a lock or unlock sound.... the option is selected in sound settings and the volume is up, but no sound is made....
I tried some other commands and still a no go, does anyone know the command to mount the drive and move the file over

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.
Ever time I boot I see during boot the message Drive mount has been denied super user. Any ideas. 3.1

You might have accidentally denied DriveMount Super User access at one time or something...etc
start up Super User and you will see it listed the many programs that has been granted or denied... You can select DriveMount from the list and choose "forget" option...
Reboot... or start DriveMount again...
You should now be prompted to give SuperUser access to it... remember to allow and choose to remembered the permission
That took care of it, thanks.
Thanks, it woked fine and added to my Knowledge.
i have another problem. i can't access the superuser app in my htc sappire
is really annoying when i try to use any bluetooth application like "bluetooth file transfer"
what should i do? is there a way to update super user or just remove it?
