Which one should I keep between Superuser and SuperSU?
I rooted my v10e using Chainfire's tooks and got SuperSu. Then I updated it to v20a then rooted it and got the Superuser, which then resulted in my having both SuperUser and SuperSU. My SuperSU didn't have any su binary, so I reflashed SuperSU and updated the binary and now I have both functioning SuperUser and SuperSU.
Which should I keep and how to remove Superuser if I were to keep SuperSU? There isn't any option for total unroot like in SuperSU.

I use Superuser but its the same with SuperSU
Download from Play store Root Unistaller and uninstall the one that you dont like
Also in this way you can delete every System App that you dont like!

The app sounds powerful. Will the app also free up the internal memory if I uninstall the system apps?

Superuser by Koush is the best imo https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.superuser&hl=pl

@AzureV
between SuperUser and SuperSU i prefer SuperSU. Seems better for me.
To use SuperSU open it and it should tell you to install or update binary. Do it the 'Normal' way when prompted.
Then to remove SuperUser, go to settings, and scroll down to the bottom. There should be a section with option to cleanup to switch Super user app, and below it is something for you to 'Uninstall other Super user app'. Touch this one.
SuperUser should be gone after that.

OOO Yeah
0both are the same but I tend to keep Superuser because I find that SuperSU drains my battery more (don't know why...)

How could you tell that the battery drain was due to SuperSU?

Superuser app is installed as a part of the rooting process. YOU NEED THIS APP. All other applications that need root access like Titanium, they are gaining root access through superuser. ( You will need to confirm if you want the app to gain access ). If you have superuser installed meaning that your device is ROOTED

If you want to remove super user, than why did you root your phone...?
You need super user for apps that require root

Actually, as I understand, superuser app is installed even if you do a temp root like via z4root
That said, i also am unclear as to it real function
I'm on xperiatized ics and rooted. However if I go into root explorer, I can't change from ro to rw. Anything which requires root will say superuser has denied it or it hasn't obtain root access yet. Can anyone help?

Hi jumper62!
You could try updating super user app or installing new binary from superuser/ info.
Also, you could try Superuser Update Fixer (free aplication from the market)
Just in case, perhaps you could try installing yor ROM again.
Good luck.

The superuser update fix didnt work

Flash any superuser package meant for arm like universal gb root
And then optional steps are below
Install supersu from market then open it
It will ask to update su binary just do it and you would be good to go

Hi guys,
Some questions here:
1. I was just exploring my O4X with my Titanium Backup when I realized my superuser app isn't listed in Backup/Restore tab. Is there anyway we can do to show the app?
2. When I first rooted my phone, the given superuser app is superuser. Is it possible to use SuperSU instead? I find SuperSU much more user friendly and it's got some features that superuser doesn't.
3. Related to question no. 1 & 2, supposing I've installed SuperSU, is it safe and possible to simply uninstall the superuser app using Titanium Backup and let SuperSU take over the superuser stuff?
Any replies will be greatly appreciated.
PS. It's March 31 in Indonesia and still no sign of official JB update.

To backup Superuser or SuperSU is useless, you need always to install it because of binary.
Installing SuperSU in system will uninstall Superuser automatically but if you don't want to install it in system, you can delete /uninstall Superuser like any other app without losing ROOT (after install SuperSU, it takes control over Superuser)

I actually tried installing both apps and it seems like nothing is happening. The only problem is that I can't remove the superuser, it doesn't show up anywhere not even in Titanium Backup.
Thanks for your reply though

Download SuperSU from play store , open it , tgen go to the setting tap ,, then check the "enable SuperSU" .
Then goto "install SuperSU into /system" .
That is all .

I rooted my phone the 1st time while on v10e and got the "SuperSU". Later after I updated to v20a Jelly bean, I rooted it again for the 2nd time and now I have "SuperUser". Some of my apps now ask for root access from both of them.
Question: should i keep them both or just one of them? If only one, which one is better?

Supersu works perfectly in JB. Keep it. Tight it to system app in Supersu options.
Hello,
I have CM.
I want to replace the built in Superuser app with SuperSU.
I want to know: Having 2 Superuser apps is OK?
And if I can remove (or anything that will disable it) the built in app.
Thanks.

im not sure about removing the cm superuser app but im pretty sure u can just install supersu beside it. dont see why not
yeah u can, I've done it before, but before you uninstall it open the one you've installed and update the su binary first then uninstall the old app.
