Good evening!
I used to root my phones as well as my S7 edge that I had at the beginning of the year and the one with all this is very good to pass except that I have this message.
In ESexplorer when I want to check [root explorer], I have the message "Sorry, your Android system is not rooted"
On rootexplorer I can not delete file like bootsamsung.qmg, I have the message "bootsamsung.qmg can not be deleted because the file system is read-only."
rootexplorer did not ask me for administrator permissions
On the other hand Titanium Backup has to ask the authorization administrator and tells me that I am rooté.
Root Checker tells me I'm root.
Do you have an explanation and especially an aid?
Thank you
Little UP !
Any idea ??
Thanx
In supersu set permision to grant for file explorer and check again

As if there aren't enough "root" threads already here is another one, when looking at Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper there are checkboxes for ( among other things ) "Device rooted" and "Root permission granted" what's the difference ?
'Device rooted' tells it that the device is rooted, and it will save SU and busybox.
Id imagine the 'root permissions granted' will also save the settings for SU, so you wont have to re-accept all apps that you already given root permission to.
Hi there thanks for the answer, I still don't totally understand, If I've got root access then the device by definition must be rooted !
I have upgraded my gt-i9505 to I9505XXUFNA5. But i cant root now. I did all the steps to root but when i use the app "root checker" i receive the message "Please wait for root check to complete. System appears to br running very slow." What can i do?

Go to the play store and download the free version of Titanium backup or Rom Manager.
Titanium backup and Rom Manager both require ROOT access and they will ask you to allow it.
Forget about the "root checker" app, it's not needed and perhaps it's even faulty.
If Titanium backup or Rom Manager asks for root access and you grant it, it means that you are
fully rooted and you don't have any issues with root.
If trying the above does not show you that you do indeed have root access then download
cf-autoroot and unzip it and flash the TAR file using Odin.
CF-AutoRoot will give you full access after flashing it, but even then use Titanium backup
or Rom Manager to make sure you have root, not that "root checker" app you have.
Here is the direct download link for cf-autoroot:
http://download.chainfire.eu/316/CF-Root1/CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip?retrieve_file=1
This zip file contains cf-autoroot.tar and the Odin files in case you need it.
Unzip all the files into an empty folder on your desktop.
Good luck!
I have a rooted s4 (with 4.4.2).. I'm trying to use ES File Explorer to change permissions on a root folder but it won't change the permissions. After I change them and then go back to the folder it just reverts to its original state. When I tried to use Root Browser to change the permissions it just gave me an error message saying that I couldn't do that. Does that mean my phone is only partially rooted? Or something else?
Sounds like you have no root at all.

Mate ,
Did you check the settings of ES?
top left corner /settings menu / root Explorer ( set to on) and set the options you need (rw, hidden folders.....)

I have made sure of those settings. .
And ES File Explorer does have Supersu permission.

It is like in that picture.... But it still doesn't work. I just switched from Supersu to Superuser and took this screen shot. I'm sure it has to do something with the letters that are red (in the screen shot). I just don't know enough to know what it means.

Something is not right , if you are root and your explorer setting are right there should not be any problem to change permission
when you first installed / open ES or root browser it ask you for SU rights , you said you did , in supersu it show you a list of app with SU rights , they were there?
Install Titanium Backup , it will ask you for SU , grant , go to Backup / restore , select any app there click on it on the menu that pops up select freeze...does it let you do it? then you are root , if not then there is a problem with your root

Download root checker from play store. If it shows your phone to be rooted, then updating will brick your device. If it shows "no root access" then you can update to Lollipop.
And, a word of advice, dont update to Lollipop. Kitkat works much much better than Lollipop on A6000+.
Also, you can try custom ROMs if you are familiar with flashing ROMs and stuff..

No app without root access can install busybox because without root access they dont have permission to write in /system directory. So, the "install busybox without root" app has to store busybox files in /data/ directory, and must be guiding other apps to that folder when some apps ask for busybox.
And without root permissions you cant modify the contents of /data/.
So, you need to install that "install busybox blah blah" again and then try installing busybox again. Then, clear data of the "install busybox ..." app and I think busybox would get removed, hopefully.
And yah, if this doesn't work you can factory reset your phone. That would surely do the job.

Yeah factory resets wipes the /data/ directory. All of your installed apps will be removed too, so you should better make backup first.
I have rooted successfully Desire 626 (At&t) that's on Android Version 5.1, Steps on how to root below:
First Enabled "Unknown sources," Settings->Security->Tick the Check Box and Click yes.
Return to App Drawer, open File Manger and install "KingRoot-4. 1 .0.249.apk" when finish installing open the app
"Ignore any error message" and start root (Internet Connection required) once successfully rooted verify with "Root Checker" app
Now to replace "Kinguser" with "Supersu" install a "Terminal Emulator" app, Extract the file "KS.zip" and place the extracted folder on the root (main) of your Phone Storage, now open terminal emulator app and type the code below:
su
"allow root permission when asked"
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
" after typing the above code ignore any errors til the process is complete, Supersu will open if successful
When asked to update binary select "normal" and reboot if asked.
Done.
N.B. I have package the files needed to do the root here : https://goo.gl/A7BIsD
N.B. Your Bootloader must be Unlocked !
Link to packaged files needed to do the root is broken. Could you please re-post?

Sorry bout that....link has been Updated.
Thank you for the quick reply. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I downloaded the zip file, installed KingRoot and opened the app, but the root keeps failing. I've tried multiple times and KingRoot fails at around 60% every time. I updated KingRoot and that failed, too. Based on your screenshots, it seems like we have the exact same phone with AT&T. Would really love to root if you have any suggestions. ("Unknown sources" is enabled and Bootloader is unlocked ) Thank you!

use the kingroot app provided...if your bootloader is unlocked then it should work.
uninstall kingroot and restart your phone.. connect to WiFi or Data, reinstall kingroot open and try root again..if it fails try again at least 3 more times.
Worked perfect for me
