N910U got rooted using CF Root. But Titanium Backup failed to freeze anything. Help plz.
no one?
Using double negatives is wrong!!
more details please. What happens when you try to freeze? You click on freeze and nothing happens? You click in freeze and it says frozen but it's really not? Did you check and make sure you had root?

Thanks bro~
Yes, it says frozen but it's really not.
Titanium Backup says i have root already, and Greenify says the same thing.
But MyBackup Pro refuses to freeze anything neither, and Autostarts says i don't have root.
I'm confused.:crying:
Try uninstalling app on your phone, reinstall the Regular version, open it up, then go install the pro, open it up. Let me know if that doesn't work.
May not help but, have you got into developer settings and ticked usb settings? Use to have to do that on my s4 when using titanium..

Open SuperSu. Does it tell you that you need to update the SU binary?

I did check the USB debugging box and update the SU binary before. :crying:
Well then you have to do it manually... With a file explorer with root access.

How do I tell if my x8 is rooted?
Try to find "superuser" in menu. If there's something with the name "Superuser", your phone's rooted.
If Superuser works on your device, then it is rooted. If you have no Superuser, then it is not. If superuser does not work, Reboot and try again.

It appears as an app? If I unroot then it will disappear?

It is installed in system and you need to remove it before un rooting otherwise even factory reset won't remove it and you need to re root or flash a new rom to remove it
Un-root is very easy. Just flash with PCC.
I think SuperOneClick can unroot your phone too
I'm in need of some help, I'm rooted or so i'm lead to believe, I used wugfresh's method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475 and everything seemed to work as planed but when i try to use TB or rom toobox it tells me I don't have root. I also tried root check and that comes back telling me I don't have proper root access. Can someone show me some love and help me out.

Install busybox installer from the market and install/update busybox. See if that fixes your issues. Also try installing SuperSu from the market, opening it, and updating su binary when it opens.
Did you run the busybox free app?

I installed busybox installer and when I try to install/update it says it failed. As for SuperSu, it doesn't give me an option to update the su binary.

I ran busybox free and it says it's unable to verify whether or not certain utilities needed for this app to run are present and functional on my device. This problem could be caused by a device that is not properly rooted or by superuser settings that are misconfigured

Likely not but thought i'd ask - Did you update to 4.1.1 after initially rooting?

Did you have the apps that use root before you rooted? I've noticed with some apps (that work with and without root) sometimes dont register that root is installed on your device so perhaps you should try redownloading them from the play store.

I've had the apps for a while on my droid x but I waited until after I rooted to also install them on the N7. I also tried uninstalling them and reinstalling them but they still don't work.

When you take an update it unroots your device. Re-root it with the tool and you'll be fine.

He should've used voodoo over the air rootkeeper to back up n save his root. So once you update, you can easily restore rot with one click in that app instead of having to use roottoolkit again.

I feel like a moron especially since I froze the updater on my droid x, I'll give it a try when I get home from work, is there anything special I should do or will I just have to click the root button?

Please link to the root guide you followed. After you rooted did you do anything else to the phone? You can try downloading the .apk file for the google play store. There are guides online to install .apk files manually.

I used the motochopper method. I have since installed titanium backup pro but I had this problem before installing that.

You may want to try restoring to factory with Kies and trying again.
Having already rooted wont effect a factory reset? Have you rooted your S4 using the same method?
I am actually restoring my rooted phone with Kies right now. I can confirm after its done that there weren't any issues. There is a disclaimer in Kies saying there may be issues if your phone is rooted.
Where did you find that option in kies?

With your phone plugged in go to Tools > Upgrade firmware
And mine just finished successfully.
Remember you can delete busybox and su in your system directory to unroot your phone before you system restore in Kies.

I personally testing it and it works. The method to return the status from "Custom" to "Official" while keeping root was very nice.
Can someone help confirm that Adaway (version 2.3) installs on your phone? For some reason I can't get it to install after updating to jwr66y.
Edit: Resolved! Cleaned up app corpse using SD Maid.

It just says “app not installed” with a single “done” button as opposed to a “done” and “open” button with other successful installs. I do have have a nandroid backup before the update.. but that'll hopefully be the last one to do..
That's weird! Try to download another apk! The one you got might be bad or something...go to their website

if you took an ota update, you need to reflash su. you can flash custom roms and kernels and not have root. you just wouldnt be able to use root apps/functions, like titanium, or adaway. open a terminal emulator app.. type su(press enter). if you get a # then you have root. if you dont, then you dont have root.

PS: My root survived the ota.
I'm at a loss at the moment guys, I've rooted my s5 with cf-autoroot, everything seemed successful, but apps that require root tell me I need root permissions and need to root my phone...
I've got supersu and can grant permissions when needed, but this does nothing. I've checked root with rootchecker and it says I'm rooted.. Am I missing something really obvious? I've looked around and can't find anything.
If anybody could please help me I'd highly appreciate it!
(Sorry if this was a messy post, I don't tend to post often)
You might try running chainfire again and see if that helps.

You could try powering down the phone, pull the battery and wait 20 seconds. then boot into downloadmode and reflash CF Auto Root and reboot.
I would go with gee's recommendation.
