Adb root showing, but not on phone?? - fyodor rom - help please - Click Android Development

Hi,
i have rooted my phone and applied newest recovery following every instruction on this site to the letter.
also installed and using fyodor's excellent rom since it's first release.
when i use adb i always obtain root # and have done so since flashing and entering commands
but when i try to access root on my phone (root explorer for example) i am now unable to mount rw/ro?? and cannot browse files. i also use cachemate which appears to gain root access and do its job
any help much appreciated as to how to solve this issue and allow my phone to recognise root
thank you for any help

Hi huetson2:
Try to execute the command below(on PC):
Code:
adb shell ls -l /system/sbin/su
If you get this output, I think rootExplorer and others(e.g.: Autostarts, setCPU) will work properly.
Code:
-rwsr-sr-x root root 76232 2008-08-01 20:00 su

[App][4.0+] CM App Installer

CM App Installer will pull the latest versions of the apps available that CyanogenMod exclusively develop, and give you the option to install them to your system either rooted or non-rooted. I cannot guarantee success with this, I don't develop the application, my job is simply to make it easier for you guys to get your favourite CyanogenMod apps on your own ROMs!
Use carefully! As ever, I do not take responsibilty for any damage done to your device as a result of this! The root features use the code specified in "code" in the options menu, or it's listed below. If you're paranoid, please give it a read
I have to emphasise, please try the non-root method first!. The root method is designed as a last ditch attempt to get it working, it does backup and restore your old versions but errors do happen, expect this as a possibility if you're rooted!
The list of apps available in the application are:
Apollo
Calculator
CM File Manager
Torch
Messaging
DSP Manager
Voice+
News and Weather Widget
Trebuchet Launcher
cLock Widget
Movie Studio
CM Wallpapers
Let me know if you have any more suggestions to add!
Code
This information is also available from within the application.
There are a number of commands that this application uses, it executes certain processes through the code to copy apps to the system directory.
These commands are ran as if they were ran inside the terminal emulator, and always consist of
process, remount to read-write, transfer/copy/rename, remount to read-only, close. (In this order).
I use a Process to get a SU Runtime instance
Code:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
And then I use a PrintStream to issue the commands listed below to it.
Remount the system partition as read-write
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Rename an app (use move command to move with a different extension - Creating backups)
Code:
mv /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk /system/app/AppOfChoice.bak
Copy an app from SD card to System directory
Code:
cat /sdcard/CMApps/AppOfChoice.apk > /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
Remove an app from system partition
Code:
rm -r /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
For permissions, I use chmod
Code:
chmod 644 /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
Remount the system partition as read-only
Code:
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
And that is it. The process commands get pushed over the course of about two seconds, and should work. Again, I can't promise everything.
Credit also goes to the Reddit member /u/wchill, his code helped with the system code (shown in the Code section above)
Similarly, I do not take any responsibility if this app causes your phone to be bricked, corrupted, broken, or to encounter an unfortunate case of spontaneous combustion. Use at your own risk.
In the mean time, enjoy!

Access Chrome DevTools / Remote Debugging

Hi,
I'm interested in hacking some of the existing apps to see how they tick, since most of them are just HTML + CSS. I've been sleuthing around trying to find how to enable the remote debugging port of Chrome which is usually available (and even officially for apps that you actually register yourself). I've found
Code:
/data/chrome/.eureka.conf
contains a enable_remote_debugging flag which is currently set to false, is it as simple as modifying the file to say true? Does anyone know if this file is checksummed or have any other checking preventing me from modifying it? I normally would go right ahead but I don't want to brick the device, so I'm posting here for some reassurance/guidance.
Cheers,
Did it.

Posting it here in case someone is trying to achieve the same/similar things with their own Chromecast.
HOW TO: Add (any?) Chrome command-line argument to the Chromecast shell / Get the remote DevTools working.
Note: You will need root access to your Chromecast to perform these steps. This guide assumes you have busybox installed and on your PATH
SSH into your Chromecast, this is usually just ssh [email protected], although you may need to specify an IP address in place of Chromecast if your router does not automatically create a DNS entry for it.
Optional: once in your SSH session type busybox sh to get a terminal that supports history and tab completion.
Copy the process.json file somewhere you can modify it and make it readable for the 'chrome' user:
Code:
busybox cp /system/chrome/process.json /data/chrome/process.json
chown chrome:chrome /data/chrome/process.json
Modify the process.json file to add "enable-remote-debugging" and "remote-debugging-port" (or whatever other flags you want to use) to the cast_shell external_flags JSON array and save the file. The only editor I found on the device was busybox's vi, so you'll need to know the basics to modify that file, or use adb and modify it elsewhere.
Extract the environment variables from the running cast shell process
Code:
ps | grep cast_shell # take note of the PID
busybox xargs -0 busybox echo < /proc/1234/environ # where 1234 is the PID from the previous step
Copy that line for later, the output should something look like: (you can most likely copy this, but it may change depending on your firmware version)
Code:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/system/lib PLAYREADY_STORE_DIR=/data/netflix/AACS/ CAST_CLIENT_CERT=/factory/client.crt CAST_CLIENT_PRIVKEY=/factory/client.key.bin CAST_CLIENT_CERT_CHAIN=/system/etc/cert_chain.pem HOME=/data/chrome/
Switch to the 'chrome' user (the groups may be different for your firmware, check by reading /init.rc and looking under groups for cast_receiver service)
Code:
sudo -u chrome -g chrome:graphics:wifi:net_mgr:watchdog:log:panel:metrics /bin/busybox sh
Now paste that line on ENV vars and on the same line type:
Code:
/system/chrome/cast_cli stop cast
Your TV may turn off at this step. You can safely turn it back on.
Paste the line of ENV vars again and then again on the same line type:
Code:
/system/chrome/cast_cli --process-json-path=/data/chrome/process.json --enable-remote-debugging --remote-debugging-port=9222 start cast
If you are running adb logcat in another window, you should start to see cast_shell starting up. If it crashes, be sure to read the log to find out what's going wrong. It normally takes 10-30 seconds to show the backdrop again on the screen.
Now that the cast shell is running in debug mode, you should be able to navigate to http://chromecast:9222 and inspect your browser window remotely (or replace chromecast with your IP address).
Enjoy!

Rooted my phone by flashing Magisk 19.3. Root Checker verifies- the device is rooted but it also states :

Should I be worried about this ? Should I install Supersu and update the binaries OR should the message be ignored.
I read on the forum that Magisk is an alternative to Supersu so am confused.Please enlighten :angel: a newbie.

@GOD-TheSupreme
The root checker used doesn't recognise Magisk. It finds it:
Code:
Alternative Location
Command; Is -I /sbin/su
Result: Irwxrwxrwx 1 root root
12 1970-03-26 00:23 /sbin/su -> /
sbin/magisk
But, it doesn't know what it's looking at. It's probably not been updated in a long time and still think that SuperSU is the way to go...
Root checkers feel like quite an outdated thing though. If you have root, you'll see it in the Magisk Manager.
And by the way, superuser is not the same thing as SuperSU...
Binary files not installed
Have root on kindle fire with kingroot but su binary files not installed

[GUIDE] Not registered on network fix - EFS failed to mount - NO IMEI or Zero IMEI

Today i got an issue for my N960F after flashing a custom ROM. I'm not sure till now what've gone wrong, but after rebooting my device i faced an issue that my SIM card can not register on network.
Cellular network signal is full, but can not make any calls and can not connect to data.
Tried to restore through TWRP with a nand backup, but always fails as EFS partition can not be mounted. Eventually I managed to restore my EFS partition after following the hereunder steps.
I'll just leave it here if anyone faced the same in the future.
Disclaimer: You are doing this at your own risk. I shall not be held liable for any losses or bricked devices ( They already are )
Pre requisites:
- ADB on your PC, latest SDK is preferred.
- Custom recovery ( with ADB enabled )
- Better to have a previous EFS backup
Steps:
- Reboot into recovery and enable ADB ( in TWRP, ADB is enabled by default )
- Attach your device to your PC. and open your terminal or command prompt as an admin.
- Type the following commands:
- Navigate to your ADB folder ( in my case it is C:/ADB )
cd C:/ADB
- Ensure that your phone is readable in ADB mode
c:\ADB>adb devices[ATTACH type="full"]5610649[/ATTACH]
c:\ADB>adb shell
Your terminal handle should change into root ~ #
~ # cd /dev/block
/dev/block # ls
you should get an output like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
/dev/block # cd by-name
/dev/block/by-name # ls -la
you should see device partitions listed as this .. EFS partition is highlighted in yellow and is on sda3 as below
/dev/block/by-name # mke2fs /dev/block/sda3
and you should be prompted by a message to proceed or not. Press y then enter
Finally,
/dev/block/by-name # mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/sda3
We successfully formatted and mounted EFS partition and now either to restore your old EFS backup or flash stock firmware through ODIN.
