thats not an error, thats busybox asking for su. give it su access. many root apps need busybox to work.

Apps not recognising Root?

I have a rooted devices, I've been able to flash ROMs Kernels mods etc but when I try to use an app that requires Root access it says I don't have root access. Superuser is installed also.
More Info:
When typing "su" in terminal emulator I get "segmentation fault"
I'm using stock ROM with _motleys Awesome kernel.
Any ideas? Thanks -

download and install supersu from the market, open it, if it says to update the su binaries do it, delete superuser from /system/app/ (using root explorer or something similar), reboot.
Thanks for your fast response. I will try it now.
No luck I get "installation failed !"
heres a flashable version of supersu. flash it in your recovery, then open the app, update binaries.. http://download.chainfire.eu/204/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.94.zip
Just rebooting, thanks for all you help so far.
Edit: It worked many thanks.

I have root, but it says I don't have root

ok so I had a rooted phone running AOKP and franco kernel, it was all fine. but then being the irritatingly impatient person that i am, i wanted android 4.3 so flashed the stock rom, and so everything is now stock, which is what i wanted. BUT, I can't use root! I have supersu installed but whenever an application request root...nothing. literally nothing happens, it's meant to pop up with a little box asking me if i want the app have root access, but now it doesn't come up. It may be linked to the fact that whenever I open supersu it says "The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" so obviously i tap continue, but then it says installing for a about half a second, then it just says "Installation failed!". I've looked around and some people say they can't update their supersu binary if they don't have busybox. When i rooted with Nexus 4 Toolkit (thanks so much mskip. also because of what i say after this it may make this thanks look sarcastic. it's not, nexus 4 toolkit has been amazingly useful to me) it told me busybox had been installed, so i just assumed that it had been. when i saw people saying that i may need busybox i download a busybox installer from Play and it told me i didn't have busybox. so i told it to install busybox and it said "Installing BusyBox v1.20.2 failed. Please try installing a different version. Please note that BusyBox installer attempts to install BusyBox to your system. Some versions of busybox may not work with some devices. If problems persist please email us and we will be glad to offer our assistance". as it suggested i tried other versions of busybox. in fact i tried every version the app would let me try, and none of them worked.

[Q] Changing Superuser

Hi
I have been using clockworkmod superuser on stock 4.3 with no problems. However I have just flashed a new kernel and am now getting the message that the SU binaries are out of date. I have tried re-flshing the superuser.zip with CWM but still have the same message and of course no root. Is it possible to replace superuser with the latest supersu and see if that gets my root back. If so how I do it and will I then be able to unistall the clockwork superuser app once supersu is up and running.
Thanks
Andy.

By that do you mean it replaces the superuser that is currently installed or adds it as an additional app. Sorry for the confusion but still a little confused with the various methods of obtaining root with the various superusers etc.

Thanks for the help and will let you know how I get on once I get it downloaded and installed.
Installed the zip and everything is now working ok and I have root back. The supersu app replaced the origional superuser app so nothing to uninstall/delete.
Thanks Again

[Q] Superuser and SuperSU conflicting

Hello all,
I've been running into some issues with Superuser and SuperSU while running the CM11 nightlies. I restore all of my apps using the built-in Superuser from CM11, and then I go into SuperSU to update the binary (I want to use SuperSU as my main Root app) and update the binary successfully. All is well, but then it seems that Superuser will then take over as my main root app and then I need to continuously update the SuperSU binary.
Does anybody have any idea why SuperSU is not sticking as my root app, or how to "disable" Superuser?

root and superSU

I was updating superSU on my note 3 after root. I tried to use game killer, only to get the message that root wasn't available. I loaded up superSU and was told that the binary couldn't be found... I downloaded a root checker and it said that root access was there... So I unrooted and re rooted. Same deal.
I'm not sure how to fix the issue.
Can anyone please help

Have you deleted then given Super SU privileges back? I find installing a new rom can sometimes screw with them....

When I first got the phone it had a rom full of provider bloatware. I flashed another stock Roma to get rid of it. Then I flashed xnote and decided OT wasn't for me, so I went back to stock (without bloats)

Delete the apps from SU then when prompted give them permission again - like normal you will need to re-open them again and get the "Grant root access" prompt from SU...This may work, has for me everytime...
Only other thing I would do if this didn't work would be re-stock and start from scratch...

I have already reflashed stock back to my phone, re rooted and the problem still exsists
Currently I'm on stock again (downloaded from sammobile)
Every time I open superSU, it tells me there is a problem with the SU BINARY (when I was rooted. I'm not trying to use super SU unrooted lol)
Just rooted again and its still the same...
Reflash stock, full wipe from stock recovery, reroot.
Or u have done a full wipe from stock recovery after flash stock firmware?

Yeah, done all of that. Is there a way to manually wipe the SU binary and reinstall? The root checker app says root access is allowed
Is there another way to see if it's the SU binary or game killer having issues?

If you attempts to fix root access denied on game killer then it won't work. Gamekiller/gamecih/gameguardian doesn't work with android 4.3 and above.
I however tried gamecih with cm based rom last week & it worked

Its not a superSU issue, guess the dev needs to update the gamekiller app. Do you have root privileges with other root apps?

Try unrooting superSU from the app itself and reflash the latest (1.94 i think) superSU.zip in recovery or with Flashify (if compatible ,Playstore) flash CF Root in downloadmode. Hope that helps.

Your SU binary got issue but yes even you solve it those apps won't work.
Try uninstall it from playstore. There is also flashable supersu
http://download.chainfire.eu/204 but I never use it either or maybe reroot

ES explorer can't get root access either.
Should I flash superSU.zip straight over the top using recovery? Or is that not a good idea?

I have unrooted (flashing stock rom using recovery) and rerooted (using CF auto root... Or whatever it's called) many times.
