One rooted when you try and run a program that requires root access a notification should open asking if you why to allow root access.
Click on the super user app. What happens?

nope nothing pop up to ask if i allow the access...
I have tried a two types of one click root program which is Superoneclick and another one by TGA_Gunnman..
But both act in the same way that nothing will pop up and ask whether to allow access...

What happens when you click on the super user app?
Have you tried rebooting the phone?
Have you tried replacing apk with market, search superuser in market, see if it shows installed, try to update or replace
You are on stock, correct

yeap i have tried to reboot after the rooting process...
I can open the superuser app too.
Yes im on stock.
Im thinking should i use z4root now?

Might as well. Did you check for the app in the market?
What are you looking to accomplish with root? What is your goal?

yup i checked the market too... it shows i ald installed the superuser..
Just want to root and use the rom manager to back up...
And i dunno y suddenly the root works! now im okay! Thanks for the help!
I guess we need to install again from market and reboot in order to use this...

No problem, who knows what the issue was. Enjoy, I am sure you will be flashing roms in no time

[Q] removing stock apps

I've got some apps on my rooted nook that I don't think I need (social, browser, gallery, news and weather, etc). How can I go about uninstall them? Long pressing gives me an error that Uninstall was unsuccessful.
Edit: Here's the answer

deleting some apparently irrelevant ones like talk etc causes problems, careful:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
full sysfile control and easily too:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander&hl=en

Hey , every time i try to delete something it tells me that i have no root access ?
What shall i do to gain the app the access ?

Definitely need more information, What are you trying to delete and how are you attempting it?

Sounds like you need to root it... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35267728
I strongly suggest using titanium backup and freezing apps rather than uninstalling them. You can save yourself some serious headaches.

I have followed the procedure yesterday , its all "Ok" , yet i don't have root privileges :/

It's impossible to give you any advice when you're being so cryptic, please explain in detail exactly what you've done, trying to do and anything else that relates. Telling us that you've rooted the device but don't have root access tells us exactly nothing unfortunately.

How to get rid of the nagging reminder about system update?

I've got european 64bit HTC Desire with the ROM from T-Mobile.
Already rooted, elaborately customized - seemed with this I can easily wait for some dev's 64bit ROM from xda-developers wich I'd eagerly install in my device.
Hower the problem occured: the COMPULSORY OTA UPDATE!
The persistent item in the task bar (often popping up on the main screen) is shouting:
"System update available
Tap to download the system update"
Indeed compulsory, the nagging reminder is hard to ignore and impossible to switch off!
I feel happy with the version I have and there seems no need to update - the more, automatic update obliterate all my complicated customizations made with some effort.

Lmao it's not that hard to stop! Use a app freezer or stopper and look for something called updater and freeze it. Problem solved.

or just idk update?

There really is no reason to do that because the roms are not built with the latest updates so if you update you're wasting your time because when you flash a rom you're going to be on whatever version that rom was built on.

With 3C Toolbox Pro I've frozen the system app called "Updater" and it has helped!
Also frozen some other "factory" nagging apps.
HOWEVER - in the notification bar there is another pesky notification: "there is dangerous application installed in your phone: C Toolbox Pro, which can make serious damage to your phone - uninstal it or keep it on your own responsibility" (actual text may differ from this fuzzy quote from my memory).
Indeed, "C Toolbox Pro" I've installed and added it to Xposed as it's module.
What do you think, is "C Toolbox Pro" going to harm a phone?

You should try FOTAKILL.APK
There are downloads for it on this forum and instructions - it is designed for this job alone
Otherwise give me your email by personal message as i haven't posted enough to post a googledrive link ... ill send you a zip with Fotakill in
unzip - download it and place it in :
System/App
Reboot to install
Hope this helps
The update may now flash the wheel in notification bar but it will just go away fast and you will see no window flashing up on main screen interrupting your use.

However, HOW to get rid of THIS notification, in turn - as it pops up after every booting of my phone?
Which process is responsible for this and wouldn't freezing it affect anything important?

Bein Sport app refuses to work with my rooted Z3C

Hi everyone!
I have a rooted Z3C and it is a fantastic phone, I love it. The problem is that I bought a television sport service that includes the possibility to watch games on your phone, it's called Bein Sport. This app is able to detect root and refuse to play any videos so the service I bought becomes kind of useless
The worst part is that I don't want to mess around, just want to watch games on my phone and use the service for what it was thought. Si I thought i'd give a shout here, has anyone been able to bypass that annoying feature? I don't even understand why they don't like rooted phone
thanks!

There is an Xposed module for masking root on your phone, not sure if it will work or not. There is another Xposed app that offers help as well.
Installing Xposed can sometimes be tricky, make sure you find the right arm zip or you could be facing bootloops.
The place to start if you want to go down that road is here

Hey Steve, thanks for answering. I am willing to try your solution so I read the page you showed me to install Xposed. I downloaded the last version of the ARM (note arm64, or x86), should I boot into recovery and flash it now? I reaaally don't want to mess up and have to reinstall it all! Is the Z3C part of the phones that have problems with Xposed? cheers!

I use Xposed, it's very popular and works fine on the Z3c. I think the emphasis is to read about it before you do it, as many people rush in, go to downloads, install the one with the latest build number and then come crying to the forum about bootloops.
The fact that you have read ahead on the page before you did anything assures me that you won't mess it up :good:
If it reassures you, I am using xposed-v80-sdk22-arm.zip on a 5.1.1. build. But there are more recent versions out now, although I don't know what the advantages of using those are. Perhaps later versions cover the use of MM. Can anybody enlighten me on that?
Edit: Once you have flashed the installer in recovery, restart the phone and then install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk
With that installed and running you can find the modules and install them.
Each install or change of settings requires a restart.

I am unable to flash the xposed.zip in recovery (Philz). It says "failed to set up expected mounts for install". I have tried on internal SD, external SD and even USB... any idea?

Check you have root, install SuperSU and make sure it's up to date

Yep, installed, up do date, and some apps even use my root without any issues

If anyone comes here, here is what happened to me: I tried to install Xposed to try this trick but my phone would'nt falsh because it couldn't mount /system. I assumed that it was a problem with partitions. I tried deleting root manually but the app always found root even when I wasn't rooted anymore (beware, this app is pretty smart). I ended up having to go back to stock which sucks because the battery is really bad in comparison, but anyway I can watch football! Cheers

Unless you trying to track, locate or wipe another smartphone/tablet/watch remotely from an Android device, there's no need to install it from the Play Store.
With newer versions of Android, 'Find My Device' is built into the operating system.
(Settings > Security & Location > Device Admin Apps)
To provide better security, it's assigned as a Device Administrator.
Meaning it can't be uninstalled.
And it's always running unless you deactivate it manually.
For someone else to deactivate it, they would need your security credentials (password, fingerprint or face).
