this has been in my mind since the galaxy nexus time. in the past (android 2.3) i fix permissions in terminal emulator with su then fix_permissions but it isnt there anymore on ics and now, i didnt know why. so I use the one in recovery. currently, i am using TWRP 2.3.3.3.
but however, everytime after i fix permissions in recovery, all my boot-apps that require root (franco updater, touch control, LMT, as much as you can name) delays (2-3minutes) to gain superuser permissions or even did not gain it at all. same with both superuser app and supersu. Sometimes, one or two reboots fixed it and it goes back to the proper timing of getting permissions ~20 seconds after boot.
Yesterday i fixed permissions for some reason, and the delays never got fixed even after like 10 manual reboots. Until I had to use the "reinstall" option in supersu then things were back to normal again.
Please forgive my poor skills in searching, because I have done it and got no other people reported similar things. Could anyone tell me why is this happening and how to get rid of the delay? Did you get it too? Fix permissions is really useful when it comes to intolerable app-FCs. Thank you very much in advance.

Hey all,
Everytime I root my 1.2 device with manual nooter 4.5.6 (haven't tried .18), I get one download out of the Android Market. After that the Market.apk disappears from the system/app directory and I can no longer download apps. The end result of this is that I'm pretty much hosed. I've tried putting SU File Manager on to sideload apps, but it can't installed BusyBox because of the market problem, so no luck with that. I've reproduced this issue at least half a dozen times, using CWR to delete all the user data, re-registering the stock install, and then rooting again.
At this point I'm staying stock until I feel confident I can download more than one app from the market on a rooted device.
So, has anyone else experience anything like this, and if so, is there a solution?
I have this same problem. No solution yet.
It may be related to a download directory bug which has been fixed. I updated to MN4.5.18 over 4.5.6. Everything worked well untill a recent update to 4.5.25. The market crashed again. This issue seems not solved yet. So I had to flash back 4.5.18.
Same here - .18 works very well once you figure out you have to uninstall the apps that want to update and then reinstall clean to remove the chance of bootloops. I was considering doing a complete wipe again and flashing .25, but I've decided to stick it out with .18 until they get squared away.
Overall, MN4.5.18 kicks ass for all intents and purposes, and I'd suggest moving up to that.

Hello, i have a motorola defy and i am running cyanogenmod 7.2 based on android 2.3.7
I have had my phone rooted for a long time now and never experienced any troubles but a while ago I've updated the superuser app via play store and apps just lost root permissions, for instance, root explorer displayed the message like it was the first time i opened it and thet it closed itself, i rooted the phone again using the break the cage (or something like that) exploit and it started working again with superuser v 2. 3.6 i updated the app again via play store and the problem came back, when i type su in terminal i get "permission denied". I downgraded superuser again and have root permissions back, but i don't wanna be stuck in this version, anyone knows how to fix it?
EDIT: I got it fixed by going to androidsu.com and downloading the latest su update zip and then flashing it in recovery, i finally updated superuser from market and voila, everything is working like a charm, if someone experiences the same problem as me do not hesitate to contact me, I'll be happy to help
Hey, this is basically a question/help thread which I am currently experiencing with my Note 4 which I recently rooted.
I have been experiencing serious lag issues that have just made the use of my phone unbearable at this current time. The apps that I have installed which now have deleted to see if maybe this was experiencing the problems are: Freedom, Xposed Installer, Root File Manager, Root Checker, Adfree, Build.prop editor (Found a topic that said to edit the ro.securestorage.support=true to ro.securestorage.support=false ) Did that but didnt fix any problem. I will state below what kind of issues I am experiencing with the lag and other issues too.
When installing a new app from the play store or even from a downloaded APK it will take for ever to install from the APK and from the play store it will get stuck around 80% for about 30minutes before it starts installing then the install takes another 30minutes or so, same with installing straight from the APK. The lag issues consist of scrolling issues through the home screen (Happens every so often). A lot of keyboard issues when trying to type text to people its just a nightmare to use this.
I want to know what I can do to actually fix this issue, whether other people have had this issue, and whether people have any solutions. I am new to the android community and even newer to rooting, so I may be a bit of a "noob" but I learn very quickly. I dont feel like unrooting and reflashing to stock. (This is a last resort) But if push comes to shove I will do this.
Thanks for reading. Hopefully you guys can help me

Try this first, uninstall xposed framework, then install any apk (either standalone or from the play store) and report back to see if you have that problem.
If you don't have much set up, I recommend going back to stock via ODIN, see if installing app works properly.
If it doesn't, you might have a defective phone. If it does, then it must be a software issue which we can resolve.

Yeah, well I have already uninstalled xposed framework, as i said that I uninstalled everything that required root access (even when installing something that requests root access SuperSU takes about 10minutes to pick it up (This only happened after installing something but I didnt really take any notice at first) I will probably have to go back to stock, but being in canada right now and not at my actual home the internet is so slow to download the firmware -_-. Literally installing apps takes forever, uninstalling takes no time at all.
For me the culprit was exposed. Ended up having to restore my nand, and stay away from exposed.

You need to install the xposed module XSecureStorage.
Why we need install the XSecureStorage is something with privacy or S-Health problem I have the same problem, but I have installed Xposed since the first day and not have this problem until few days ago.
I like Xposed and use maybe the Instagram Downloader and Youtube Ad apps only so I want keep it.

After installed the Xposed Module XSecure Storage my apps install fast and without troubles, thanks Lessaj
XSecureStorage seems to solve the issue
Hi
Just a quick note to say that I was having the same issues after rooting and installing Xposed and that by installing XSecureStorage the problem appears to be solved.
So thanks Wanam for XSecureStorage and thanks to Lessaj :good: for pointing this out.
Hi All,
For some reason, just in the past week or so, with no changes to my vs980 except updating twrp to 2.8.1, i've lost all capability of superuser apps but all the apps that have that require root access continue to work. I use Carbon ROM, am on 4.4.4 and do my own builds. It has it's own built in SU but I've been using SuperSU. When a new app tries to get su access via SuperSU, the "grant" button won't press so the app eventually gets denied.
I uninstalled SuperSU and now only using the built in SU app that comes with Carbon ROM. It doesn't seem to be doing anything. No logs are being generated (yes, they are turned on) and I get no toast notifications when apps request root access. But they all still work fine... which seems very odd.
What does all this mean? Can the new twrp be causing it? How can I get SU apps to work again? I've run "root checker" and it says I have root. But when I first run the app, it never asks for root access.
Thanks.
A while back I was able to achieve root on my ZTE 2050 (which also goes by about 20 other names.) I was continuously having issues with the phone locking up, I couldn't access the root files, as well as many other issues. I tried installing BusyBox to see if that helped. I was able to access the root files, but if I moved or deleted anything, the phone would begin to freeze up again. Every time it froze and I would restart it, I would lose cell service until I rebooted the phone between 4 - 6 times. Finally what I figured out is that the folder BusyBox was installing the applets in, /system/sbin, were fighting against Magisk and it's BusyBox. After deleting BusyBox and reinstalling it in /system/bin and applying the option to have it reinstalled upon every boot, I have no issues accessing and modifying the root system. Don't know if anyone else has had trouble with that, but if so I hope this helps. Now if I could only figure out why I lose stock recovery once the phone is rooted or could even install TWRP I'd be doing pretty good.
