[Solved]SetCPU wont gain root - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Even though I can get root through the terminal, SetCPU says that there is no root-access detected. Any ideas?
NVM: for some reason, even though SetCPU was enabled in the SU Permissions app, it still wouldn't access it. I don't know what happened, but when I doublechecked the permissions app again to make sure(and it was still enabled) then reopened setcpu, it was able to gain su. WTF?

[Q] Why I get permission denied on rooted phone?

Hello...
My question is simple. Why I get permission denied on rooted phone?
When I type: adb shell, I get $. Then I type su and I get this message: Permission Denied.
I followed this how-to (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=792016) to root my phone and everything was fine. I get root privilegies and installed Superuser.apk, su, busybox...
But now, when I try to get root privilegies, I get the message above. Why?
Thanks and sorry for my english.
Because your phone isn't rooted. Either you didn't do it right or it's unrooted somehow, perhaps you got an OTA.
I think my phone is rooted, because there are many apps that use root permissions installed and working normally.

Then su isn't set up properly, or isn't asking for superuser permissions, or has been denied superuser permissions? Look in your Superuser app, maybe clear settings in it and let su ask again.
So, I cleared the settings in Superuser.apk and tried open Adfree apps that needs su permissions... and it opened and got permissions normally. I really don't understand what is the problem...

You do have usb debugging enabled right?

SuperSu not granting automatic permissions anymore

hey guys i have one problem with supersu.
i installed clean master and do cleaning **** and startup cleaning things and after reboot all apps that have granted root permission( foldermount, gmd gestures, lightflow, etc), these apps shows no toast popup after boot and to make them grant permissions i have to open them. Same thing when i installed boot manager and did not do anything but boot and again no supersu toast popups about root permissions after boot.
is there a way to keep the root grants after the boot? ( i have checked default acces to grant in supersu app)
I'm having problems with clean master working with SuperSu too.
clean master is so powerfull that disables supersu permissions.
They probably change some file permissions that SuperSU frowns at.

This option has a summary that's pretty unclear. I've emailed the dev, hope to receive an answer soon. Fact is apps running during the boot_completed seem to get root randomly if this option is not enabled! Let me insist on the random fact, as my apps get root on boot frequently but not all the time. Other users have reported the same random behavior. Once the option is enabled everything works as expected!
However the option seem to imply that any root request on boot will be granted!? Regardless of user choice????
To make it short, check the option "enable supersu during boot" and root apps will receive root on boot as they used to!

You should turn this into a proper bug report in the proper thead (either the beta or its own new thread) with all the useful information you think may be relevant. There is no email support, all support is here.
The option itself is for apps that run before Android is fully up and running, or su from adb shell during a bootloop, etc. I thould not influence apps running su from bootcomplete receivers, and if it does, then that needs to be investigated.
Is there currently any way to enable this feature via ADB on a boot looped phone? I really wish I would have known about this! I wouldn't be stuck where I'm at if I had only checked this option. Device is stuck at LG logo, no download or recovery, but has access to ADB. SU was installed, but I don't have root via ADB since the phone isn't finished booting...thus I'm not able to copy over the proper system.img or change the recovery/laf. Dang!
I have the problem too, when I install Fake Wifi, the automatic SuperSU granted is not working. Please help some advance. Thank's.
Hey guys why root required apps request for root access after installing super su
I have the same problem, have to add a task in tasker, auto open supersu and root granted apps once after boot,

Issues installing BusyBox

Hey guys, so I'm trying to install BusyBox on my new Nexus 6 running stock 6.0, rooted. When I try to install via Stericson's installer I got from the Play store, I get:
"We could not verify the integrity of the binary selected..." flashes for a moment, then:
"BusyBox installer was not allowed root access. This may be an issue with Superuser, open Superuser and make sure that you are allowing root access. This application will not work without root access."
I've made sure that the app is allowed root access, and have also tried deleting it from SuperSu so it would prompt me and I could grant it access again, but still the same issue. I'm not sure what the deal is, it seems like I could be having root issues? I appear to have root since I am able to use TiBu, but something seems funky. For example usually when I open FKUpdater it says "FKUpdater has been granted super user access..." and then "Unable to acquire ROOT access." Other times it only says "Unable to acquire ROOT access." I haven't tried flashing a kernel with it because I don't want to at the moment while I figure this other issue out, so I'm not sure if it's falsely reporting the root error.
So, I looked into things further and it seems like I may have some sort of permissions issue. I tried using JRummy's BusyBox installer, but that fails also and just tells me to try installing a different version of BusyBox. It also includes a script for fixing permissions, and when I run it I get "error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported" and "/data/user/0/com.crummy.busybox.installer/files/temp.sh[118]: sync: can't be executed: permission denied."
Permissions for /data/user/0/com.crummy.busybox.installer are set to drwxr-x--x, as is /system. Also /system is only showing 58 MB free but I don't think that's a problem...
Any ideas? I'm totally stumped...
set your SElinux to be permissive(via app or terminal command)

Need Help with Z3 Compact

***UPDATE***
I removed Kingroot through their app and unrooted my phone. I tried another one click root, Kingoroot (I know, quite similar names.) The SU which this one installs, isn't restricting me and I successfully set read/write to /system.
I still would prefer to be using superSU but I get a binary occupied message, and the kingouser app doesn't have an option to switch SU app.
For anyone else struggling with kingroot not letting apps work properly, try kingo, who knows.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have the Z3 Compact, and I HAVE NO ACCESS to a PC, and thus have rooted my phone with King root (which was a terrible idea but any root is better than no root)
I have this issue, where King root in some way shape or form is not allowing anything that requires write permission to /storage access to it.
This is not allowing me to install/use things like busybox, lucky patcher, freedom, and is also, stopping me from using terminal emulator to do things such as mount -o rw,remount,/system or anything else. I tried to use a system I found on XDA to replace Kingroots superuser to SuperSU to get around this, however, the replace_kinguser method, fails with no write permission, and also, fails to remove kinguser from /system/apps/kinguser because that doesn't exist as a directory and I think Kingroot may have made changes to their superuser handler.
I really, really need help getting Kingroot out, and superSU in. Without the use of a PC. Considering I do, have root, there must be something I can do.
I also can't set system to write with ES file explorer or pretty much any other method on the first ten pages of Google.
Any time I try to set /system to r/w I get permission denied.
I'm running, android 5.0.2
Also, BOOTLOADER UNLOCK ALLOWED? NO
So I don't think I can flash a custom recovery of any kind.

SuperSU no longer prompting for root access

Like I said, if the default action is prompt, an app seeks root access and there is no prompt to grant it. If I change to grant as default, everything works. Root Checker, for instance, will fail to detect root in prompt mode but does so in grant mode. Same for Root Browser and, most importantly, Xposed.
I've tried reinstalling SuperSU. Didn't help. I have systemless root on a Moto X Pure and SuperSU 2.82.
I really don't want to leave it with grant as the default action. Not safe. I've been able to find a few other posts with a similar problem but they don't lead to solutions. This is a new behavior. Prompt used to work. About a week ago, I installed the latest version of Sensible Android Auto in Xposed. It worked twice and then stopped. My guess is that is the time when SuperSU stopped granting root. Everything that needs root can get root but ONLY if root is granted automatically to anything that asks for it.
Just rooted my Kyocera Event and deduced it to have the same problem. SuperSU 2.8.2 was not providing prompts and thus not granting root access, however changing to grant default did provide root. I tried installing SuperSU 2.7.9 rc4 but had the same result. I'm now just waiting for a definitive fix while looking for an alternative solution.
