Go into settings/applications / manage applications. Then scroll down to the superuser app and force close then clear data. Then go to the app in your app drawer and restart the app. Then go into the settings of the superuser app and scroll down to notification type and choose regular / normal notification instead of toast notification. Then try your apps that require su you should be good to go. Let me know if this works.

Kifno did you try reflashing your rom again you shouldn't loose any settings or apps.Also you could try uninstalling superuser and reinstalling it,or don't know which recovery you are using but you could try fix permissions.
Also don't update the binarys a couple roms have that problem when u flash a new rom go to the market first thing and make sure su isn't automatically updated if so stop it I had to do that coming from cm6.1 to asop9.9.2

Using nfx stock 2.1 rom with chainsdd superuser app. I had a problem with an app that was looping the launcher and had to restore a nandroid. All seemed to be ok until I tried to use terminal. Su was denied. I then tried anything that required SU access and nothing would work. I have tried the update from the market for the SU apk. I uninstalled it. re-downloaded the eclair version 2.3.6.1 and flashed the Zip and got this error.
"E:wrong digest: META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script E:Verification failed"
Not sure what I am doing wrong or what might be the cause for the SU apk to have stopped working, but any help would be appreciated.
I also have unchecked the debugging and rechecked it to make sure a setting was not screwed up.
Try going into settings / applications //manage applications / and find the super user app. Then force close it and clear data. The try a app that requires su. Aslo you might wanna change the notifications in the super user app to regular notification / normal instead of the toast notification. Good luck

Your OP is a little confusing, but it sounds like the zip was bad (not signed), not the apk. You could try to update the SU binary inside the superuser app, otherwise..... Go into your titanium backup and hit the "problems" button, see what happens. I am wondering if you lost busybox. Report back
Thanks for all the feed back. I did go into the application and clear data and Force Closed it. That did not fix the problem. I also changed the notifications and nada. I tend to think I lost busybox. I am not sure what it is for, but I think that was it. I did try to use titanium backup, and it gave me an error about busybox. I was going to download it again but was not sure if it was compatible with the rom I was using.
I needed to get SU access so I ended up starting over. Wiped everything, repartitioned, and then flashed a newer version of the Rom. Thanks for all the help guys.
Glad you got it fixed.

For future reference, busybox from TI backup is always the most up to date and safe/needed for any custom rom, so yes you could've updated it and it would've been fine. I don't know how you lost it but now you know how to fix it if it happens again, WITHOUT having to start over. On a side note I love being right, happy trails.
I'm having issues with Titanium Backup that I hope someone can help with. This problem popped up suddenly, but may have been after an update. Have done extensive research in CM7 and XDA forums, Titanium FAQ, etc., and can't find a fix.
I have a rooted Nook Color with CM7.1 nightly installed on EMMC. Every time I run Titanium Backup, the following message keeps flashing up continuously during the backup:
'Titanium backup has been granted Superuser permissions'
I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling Titanium and reinstalled/checked superuser settings. Titanium Backup is listed as having superuser permissions but the log shows 200 entries. I clear the log, run a backup and 200 more log entries appear in superuser. The same happens with my HTC Aria. Everything else seems fine.
I would suspect the ROM and reinstall, but the exact same issue is happening with Titanium Backup on my rooted HTC Aria running CM7.1.0-liberty. So, I believe it is an issue with Titanium. I've tried Problems? fixes in Titanium with same results

I really appreciate all the hard work that's been done by the people at XDA and Cyanogen turning the inexpensive NookColor into a full-blown Android tablet. You guys rock! This problem has me stumped, though. What am I missing or doing wrong? I'd rather not have to reinstall on both devices to get this fixed if I don't have to.
Thanks in advance.
If you suspect Titanium then it might be better to tell us what version of the app you are running. If you just started having this happen, on two devices no less, after a recent update of the app itself, your best fix is probably finding an older version of titanium and rolling back to that.
Grab a logcat of the issue and send it to the developer if an older version fixes the problem. Assuming you have the most recent. Just to make sure it will be fixed for the next update.
Thanks for the quick reply.
My original Titanium version was 4.9.1. I went to the Titanium site and downloaded/installed the prior version with the same results. It looks like the update may not be causing the issues.
Some other things I tried:
Uninstalled Avast Mobile Security (in case it was messing up permissions)
Ran Fix Permissions in ROM Manager
Cleared superuser data and gave Titanium permission again
None fixed the issue on the NookColor. I haven't messed with the Aria, yet.
This has got me stumped. Is there a certain version of superuser that must be installed? I believe an updated version was available on the Google Play market. May have installed the update.

I am kind of confused what the problem is. Does it finish making the backup? The "Titanium has been granted superuser permission" is nothing more than a toast notification. I think you can turn that off somehow but not sure atm.
I just checked my Superuser log and I see the same entries in mine as you have more or less. But everything is running as it should be.
When I run SDmaid I also get multiple toasts and that is actually what I saw in my log with multiple entries like your TB issue, but everything is running just fine. Unless you are not getting a full complete backup, I wouldn't worry about it. I am using newest version of TBpro too.

What you described is all normal. Titanium backup needs superuser permissions to be able to access/backup/restore system files and settings. If you run a full backup with TB, it will request, and be granted superuser permissions many times. Where I think you might be getting a little confused, is older versions of Superuser just listed the allowed/rejected apps. The newer versions of Superuser show the allowed apps along the left hand side, and a 200 entries log of what apps were granted/rejected superuser permissions.

Thanks for clearing that up. I have had Titanium on the NookColor since I rooted and installed CM7 two years ago and never noticed the superuser permission messages. It must be as you said, that it's being granted superuser permission many times--it looks like as it starts to back up each app. The backups are successful as I've restored a couple of apps without problems.
Thank you again.
For me the toasts started coming up every few seconds during a backup when I updated the superuser app. I just have the notifications turned off and it doesn't bug me.

How do you turn the notifications off?
Seems that you can't within the TB app. You can go into GUI->Notification Toasts and change the way the look (Default, Cloud or Parchment).
Might be away to turn off the Toast in the SU app but it's an "If it ain't broke don't fix it type thing". Although now probably bc of this thread, you'll be looking for it everytime. Funny how subliminals work.
I turned off the notifications in the super user app.

thanks for reply,
I also tried wiping cache and dalvik cache and rebooted, but no option is asked for me.
Same problem persists..
Do this. Go to apps, wipe data of Super User, reboot to recovery, wipe cache, dalvik cache and reinstall IZS ("install zip file from sd card" or something) (you wont loose any apps).

Thank you very much, worked nicely.
Again some apps are not being granted super user permissions and being denied permission.
Every time I have to wipe cache and dalvik for rectification of this error.
Something going wrong on ICS of IZS.
If there is option to manually add an app or granting permission in super user for an app, it would be nice.

Open Superuser, what does its log say? I don't think you can add an app but it asks you anytime a (new) app asks for permission and than you can see if you granted or denied it.
BTW never heard from anybody else having this problem.

Change superuser by SuperSU. I had the same problem and that fixed it.

Yes, I also never heard this problem, but happening to me.
Sometimes when opening an app, superuser does not prompt for permission, in that case it is being denied the permission.

Uninstalling superuser and install SuperSU ?
Install supersu from play store. Open, click /install/update su binaries. Done

You can keep it if you want. If you want to uninstall it, uninstall it only after you update su binaries of supersu.
Hi there.
I would be very grateful if someone will help me solve my problem.
Well, after moving .apk to system/app (This time it was Google Wallet, but earlier I had the same with other apps) and data/app (tried both), it doesn't appear in the app drawer. What is more, It's not seen by Titanum Backup, nor the adb sees it as the installed package (adb shell, pm list packages) - no app on the list).
As I said, it works with every app - nothing appears after moving .apk to system directory manually.
Okay, wiping Dalvik-Cache and fixing the permissions may solve the problem, but I am afraid it may enable THIS screen appear on EVERY reboot (correct me if I am wrong).
Do you know any other solution? Or wiping dalvik-cache and fixing the permissions from recovery is the only proper one?
P.S. Can wiping dalvik-cache and fixing the permissions cause some problems, like it will delete the records in games or will have to configure the settings again?
use es File Explorer as you need to set the permissions, es automatically sets them correctly

Well, what I forgot to add, I of course set the permissions (644 as all system apps)... Is in that case only solution wiping dalvik-cache?
Will wiping dalvik cache delete my games records

I would suggest to wipe dalvik and the regular cache.
Any game data won't be touched (those aren't cache files correct me if I'm wrong)
If the problem persists tell us what rom etc. you're on and maybe do a full reinstall with backing up data before.

Are you using an apk from the stock rom on another rom? I'm asking this because I wanted LG Weather on CM 10.1 and I put it in system/app, rebooted and it didn't appear anywhere. The thing is that the stock rom is not deodexed and CM is. I had to use a tool to deodex the app and then put it in place, fix permissions and reboot.

You shouldn't need to wipe the dalvik cache, simply rebooting will appear that screen only for the apps that you manually put in system/app.

I'm on the Stock ROM. So I should odex this file to use it? Could you tell me which tool should I use?

1. you dont move the apk. you copy it in system/app.
2. the game data is in data not in cache.
3. you dont need to wipe dalvic. a new app installed just creates a new file in dalvic

Well I fix thew permissions in file manager. I don't know how to make the apps install this way,
Even if you copy it to /system/app/ and set permissions, it won't be installed for sure. You'd better check logs to know what's happening.
