You can remove it just like any other app.

Play store install the one you want. Uninstall the other one afterwards.

When you first run SuperSU it will ask if you want it to delete other conflicting superuser apps. Pick yes.

[Q] Problems with safestrap

I installed safestrap to install a custom ROM and when I tried to open this app , its not opening. Should I unlock my bootloader for this?.. Are there any ways to do that. I am not using a developer edition

are you sure you have root?
You can't unlock the boot loader in the xt907 consumer edition. Are you trying to open the XDA app or Safe strap app? You install safe strap and when you restart the phone, you'll see the safe strap menu. That is, if you have root.

I have rooted my XT907 using the Motofail app, downloaded root checker which verified that I do have root. Even Titanium backup works. I downloaded the safe strap 3.12 apk and used ROM manager to install it, but it won't install. What did I do wrong?

Have you tried installing it without using ROM manager? A lot of people seem to be having issues with that.

Why would you need to use anything to install SafeStrap? It's an APK. You run it, reboot and voila!

Rooted stock but some app dont acquire root!

I have my 9505 i337m rooted stock recovery installed. Most apps work and acquire root but few like trikster dont. I installed superSu.
Root checker lite report rooted and root checker pro the contrary.
Any idea?
Thank you

Did you grant them root privileges when prompted? Check your SuperSU log to see if they've been denied.

Desinstall supersu and now it it a mess. Tried yo reroot but nothing work anymore.
Superuser say not possible to update su becsuse there is a problemvor su not present. All apps that need root freeze.No rooot anymoree.
Can I fix without flashing a rom?
Is ther an app to clean and desinstall all?

Don't know why you did that-you created a much bigger problem by overreacting.
Are you trying to use superuser or supersu? From the tenor of your post, it sounds like you tried switching. What happens if you try to install supersu from the play store?

Superuser binaries not installed

If I used the ioroot method after taking att ota update and it didn't install su binaries. Can I use another method or do I have to go through unroot process and then do it.

If you didn't get first time it's fine to do again or if you had and lost from ota its fine to use ioroot method, ioroot is a pretty safe and quick way, afterward I would uninstall superuser and install supersu imo

Hide root for Isis account

Downloaded an app called hide my root then downloaded Isis. Installed both. I am running venom btw. In hide my root I chose hide su binary then set up Isis and got my $50 card. Then went into hide my root and restored my su binary, opened up Isis and no issues. Just thought I'd let anyone know who wants they're $50. I'm unlocked and rooted.

The xposed module root cloak works great also. No need to really do anything other then install and enable.

2. Install recovery using Flashify
3. Install custom rom
can this method work? anyone have tried this? since I dont want to use odin because Im still noob
TIA
Towel root may not work, you may have to use Odin because Samsung patched their kernels.
