WHY don't I have full ROOT??? QUESTION - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with root, but I am rooted running carbon ROM. I think is superuser in my case.I still have, or think I have at least half of my root access as I can install and use most root apps, but when removing system Apps it always says uninstall unsuccessfu, but most the time it will actually uninstall...I've tried installingg supersu, but have gotten same message on Joey krims root checker:

There's an app called mount system on the market. Install it & ask it mount always as r/w access at boot.
PS : You need to have root access.

You can get permission by adb shell or terminal emulator by typing:
su
busybox chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
(reboot)
I tried your method, but I still get permission denied. Here is what I did and the list of the file under /efs:
C:\SDK\tools>adb shell
$ su

Why do you want to read the file?
Have you lost your imei? If so, was the phone sold to you?
Don't bother with the codes. Use the hex edit method to change the lock status to 0:

p.s. you should delete the file you posted... that's some bad security there.

Rooted and permissioned correctly but getting a permissions denied on su

Here's the problem from a logcat after trying to run titanium backup:
E/su ( 6867): Getting exe path failed with 13: Permission denied
I AM rooted. I remounted /system as read/write. Permissions are perfect:
from /system/bin:
# pwd
/system/bin
#ls -l su
-rwxr-xr-x root shell 22240 2008-02-29 20:33 su
#
Just to prove that I have root permissions:
# chmod 666 su
# ls -l su
-rw-rw-rw- root shell 22240 2008-02-29 20:33 su
#
Just for the heck of it I tried a 777 - same problem.
This is duhRIVing me nuts!

Something wrong with root?

Could exposed framework be the issue? Before I installed it, I didn't have any problems? But I also at the same time installed several torrents. Could my problem be viral? Below is the script from root checker and two errors regarding root. Any insight would great. And I will extend my gratitude to everyone who contributes to this great forum, for your tireless work and selfless support.

I just was not certain about the " Executing this file can grant root access."

Rooted my phone with Odin, seemed successful, Supersu won't open, Rootchecker fails

I have a Docomo Galaxy S5, SC-04F, G900D, running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
After the recent update to 6.0.1, my phone runs hot, the battery drains fast, and it turns out this is because of some process called AtFwdService, which does some screencasting function I don't need. It's part of the Android system, though, so it can't just be uninstalled. I thought I'd root my phone and forcibly delete it. Soft disabling apps like Package Diabler Pro don't seem to sufficiently suppress it.
So, I used Odin, I downloaded the proper CF-auto root for my model (double and triple checking, because I know how important it is to have the right packages for the right models). The flash process from Odin went okay. I had to disable auto-reboot, so, following advice on this forum, after Odin reported success, I manually powered off and on, and booted into recovery manually. There I saw the red android and it reported successful rooting. Everything about the root process went according to how all online instructions indicated it should look.
When I first booted, I saw the Supersu icon in my application tray, but, when I click on it, it says: "All apps associated with this action have been turned off, blocked, or not installed". Hmm... I installed Root Checker, and it failed to verify that I'm rooted.
Root checker generated a report that I've attached below.
In any case, how do I make my efforts at rooting my device actually have the result of my device being rooted?
Thank you for any help.

Thanks for responding!
Just so I understand you... you're saying you just used the custom stock ROM, but changed the recovery, and then installed (flashed) SuperSU from inside TWRP recovery?
Any chance you could link to the TWRP recovery you used?

I have G900T model (codename klte) , but TWRP is available for your model also.
Your model is kltekdi
This is the Smsung S5 TWRP official page https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys5qualcomm.html
and, fortunately, your phone has support (Japan (SCL23, SC-04F):
Choose that link and choose twrp-3.0.2-1-kltekdi.img.tar
Follow the install instructions:
Odin Install Method (No Root Required): ....
Bootloader must be unlocked but if you were able to flash CF-auto root, your phone must be already unlocked

Thanks for your help! I got my phone rooted and working perfectly...
... almost.
It turns out that if the phone is rooted, I simply can't use the functions that let me use the phone's RFID chip for electronic money. I searched hard on the web, but, my research indicates that rooted phones and electronic money are completely incompatible.
I need the electronic money feature, so I had to go back to non-rooted. And after all that effort!
Anyway, thanks for helping root my phone.
CF-auto root for Samsung S5 Docomo SC-04F Android 6.0.1
Where did you find the proper CF-auto root for my model? (Samsung S5 Docomo SC-04F Android 6.0.1)
I can only find CF-auto root for Android 5.0
Thanks!
