Hi,
I cannot get root access on my terminal. The following is my configuration:
Froyo 2.2
PC: GT-I9000HKYTIM
PDA: GT-I9000AIJP6
PHONE: GT-I9000XXJPP
CSC: GT-I9000TIMJP4
Recovery : 3e
I installed speedmod k13e, but i cannot enable tweaks, bln and root.
Whenever i enter recovery mod i try to install root (simple) from the speedmod/ulk menu, at the end of the process it says "Done!" but when i reboot titanium backup complains that i do not have root privilegies.
Furthermore when i try to enable tweaks, every tweak i choose prompts "disabled". The same thing happend when i try to turn on BLN.
Any idea?
Thank you for you help.
Mattia.
Check if you actually have the Super User app on your phone.
If you don't have it download busybox from TitaniumBackup.
The Froyo Speedmod is ultrastable so this is quite odd to me.
If neither of this works I think you might have to reflash the kernel.
Hi,
thank you for your reply.
I did not have the superuser app installed and i did not find a way to download busybox from TitaniumBackup.
So i installed both superuser and busybox from the market.
I run superuser, then TitaniumBackup, but it does not start and it does not ask for root privileges.
In the same way i run superuser, then the BusyBox installer, but it does not start and it does not ask for root privileges.
I reflashed SpeedMod, but nothing has changed.
I forgot to say taht my sgs is branded and i did not unbrand it. Other things i should try?
Mattia.
I also tried with SpeedMod k12u and CFRoot 1.2 for JP6.
No progress made: no root privilegies.
I did one small step forward: i managed to correctly install busybox with CFRoot. I've never been able to do it with SpeedMod.
Could it be because the system ROM is full?

yea I guess your /system probably is full. to change that delete for example google maps (you can just download and install it from the market) from /system/app with root explorer or go into recovery and convert the filesystem the conversion will give you some more free space even if you change back to rfs afterwards
I did it using ADB Shell.
From the shell both su and busybox worked like a charm.
So eventually i managed to do my backups!

Hello,
I'm trying to reinstall BusyBox on a Stock rom in a GT-S5830C but I get this error when using BusyBox Installer for any version of BusyBox:
reloc_library[1312]: 7993 cannot locate 'android_reboot'...
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE

I've already installed BusyBox once using another BusyBox app, but that app is very slow and it seems it is not working properly (BusyBox by Stephen). I'm trying to apply the modifications that enable init.d in a Stock rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1422061&page=2), and BusyBox is a important part of it, it looks like no busybox command is working.
Sorry for bad english,
Thanks for reading!
It looks like I fixed, removed BusyBox Installer by Stephen, unrooted and rooted phone again (recovery mode), cleaned cache partition (recovery mode), fixed permissions (CWM recovery), installed BusyBox Installer by Stephen again, installed BusyBox with success.
I have the same problem

I have the same problem code 1312, 2739. I currently have busybox installed in system/xbin. But I allowed a smart install. After experiencing the downloading of the new busybox installer. Tried to update busybox. It said it is not compatible with my version 1.20.2 ? Relly don't want to go the unroot and root course. Maybe a simpler way. Sorry if I put this request in the wrong place. Thanks

Put the busybox binary in either system/bin or system/xbin using root explorer. Set correct permissions. Then uninstall busybox installer.
Reboot into cwm and do a fix permissions. This should help, but if it doesn't, you can always go the unroot thing..

stupid stupid question, but I keep getting partial root (adb su shows # but cannot write to /system)
Root Explorer as well as mount system rw app both cannot mount system as rw
SuperSU binary updates fine
However, what is odd is that I have sucessfully deleted system apps (eg phone.apk), via TIB and they do not run on the phone anymore. I have also occasionally been able to restore them via TIB
I have tried flashing CF-Root LRB via odin, same result.
I have tried flashing Abyssnote42 and then flashing the ROM via abyssnote, but still get partial root.
I don't get it- according to the post in this forum, all I needed to do was flash CF-Root and that should have done it.
I have Mobile Odin Pro, but there are no .tar files which I can find for ICS (everyone is doing CWM releases).
Also, AdAway does not seem to be able to write to the hosts file, which imo seems like it is unable to write to /system.
The very few times TIB has been able to mount /system/app as rw and I have overwritten files, nothing has changed (so it looks like they were never overwritten in the first place).
I want root to be able to write to /system, not use 'kewl root appz'. (Trying to overwrite phone.apk and contacts.apk)... i've also tried making CWM flashable zips but CWM won't flash them...
I have been able to get GB full root by flashing pre-rooted stock, this is all for Kingdroid ICS 4.0.4
Am I missing something? Can CWM install a rooted kernel? Should an Odin flash of a rooted kernel get full root? Sorry for the dumb question, but I really tried
I had same problem tried almost everything and in the last had to flash stock GB to start over again.

Flash back to GB and root and then come to CM9 or CM10.

Maybe the problem lies with busybox. Try getting busybox binary updated. I've read some people can do it by installing busybox from Google Play. For my case usually I inject busybox directly via CWM, but it is potentially dangerous so I won't share it here.
When I had this prob, I tried everything bo no luck, so flashed gb again.

I am having exactly this problem.
I have tried everything over and over and still partial root.
I would REALLY appreciate your help with getting full root on my note.
u need to give more details. what rom are u on?
Hey folks
Updated my N700 rom to the version listed in the title (which I got here) and it comes with CWM's SuperUser installed as sys app.
I have the following problem: it says outdated binary and I can't install them or update them. Of course since it's a sys app I can't delete and try to use Chainfire's SuperSU which is the one I prefer. And I don't have root access now, can't restore my Titaium Backups and such.
Downloaded the "fix" from CWM's Market links and reinstalled the app manually but I keep getting the same problem: no SuperUser binary installed and no root access.
Thanks in advance!
Try flashing the supersu zip file that's used for rooting. Or better, try flashing xxlsz Philz kernel zip from recovery.
flashed the supersu.zip and still no luck, will dig for PhilZ kernel now.

Hi I'm trying to install above since viper4android wont work with the stock su, but no luck.
I've tried installing from the market per this:
1. Install SuperSU from Play Store.
2. Open SuperSU and grant it SuperUser permissions (important; if you delete SuperUser before you grant rights to SuperSU you lose your root and need to either reflash the ROM or flash the zip I linked above).
3. gone into supersu settings and told it to grant su on boot, and grant to anything in the system folder as well
and I've also tried installing the zip version in recovery. I've also tried using the file manager in recovery to rename the current su binary in system//xbin and put the new one from the zip file in the directory.
Any way I try installing it freezes on boot up and I have to restore a nand to get my TP working again.
Overall loving flintmans new evervolv, it's really smooth, but the sound on the TP is pretty low and crappy sounding without viper4android so it's a pretty big issue for me.
Can anyone help please?
PS I cant find the apk for the current su, maybe thats part of my issue as well. Also Supersu works with 3.4 kernel version of cyanogenmod so its not a kernel issue.
Just flashed Sinless ROM and although it came with SuperSU by chainfire. I decided I wanted to remove it and install superuser by clockworkmod instead. For some reason superuser app didn't actually root the system, so I attempted to uninstall it and reinstall SuperSU. This is where I'm stuck. I cannot remove superuser app no matter what I try, even deleting it with a file manager or disabling the app. Anyone have any ideas? Really need my root back. Thanks

If it's in /system, you need root to remove it (which you don't have). I suggest going into recovery and then flashing Superuser with the SU binaries that allows root to work.

Tried this and that is what I am attempting to remove from the system to no avail. Anything else I can try? I don't know why it won't give superuser access either.

So flashing that zip didn't flash the SU binaries either?
Try flashing this then: http://download.chainfire.eu/382/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip
The main important thing is to get the SU binaries installed to allow the superuser apps to work. Once you have that installed try to change superuser apps again (do not choose the full remove option as that will also remove the SU binaries).
Another option is to try flash the ROM again.
