search in menu for a superuser app. if you have it, you have root
or, install root explorer, and open it, it should ask you for root permision, accept it. if it work => you have root.

What apk is it? From where are you trying to install it? If it is not from the play store check that unknown sources is enabled.

Strange one.
Sounds like a permissions problem.
Did you flash BusyBox when you rooted??? Search XDA for BusyBox for info on that.
Assuming you have a functioning CWM you can boot into recovery and Fix Permissions. Search XDA for CWM Menu Options for info on that.
A good place to start in diagnosing your problem is with Dr Ketan's Root Guide.
This is the bible for rooting N7000 Notes.

Flash the Stock Rom again and use a different method to root the phone.

Go to SuperSU / Supersuser menu and from there choose full unroot. Then, reboot the device and check root access.

I am not sure about this, but you can try to install the SuperSU.apk from the play store and then see if it works...

Looking for this too
I recently upgraded to CM10.1 and am faced with the same challenge, rooting/unrooting with CM9 and superuser.apk was easy. How can I go about this now?

[Q] SuperSU "install supersu into /system" ??

Hi!
I have rooted SGSA and update the SuperSU app from Google Play.
I see in options that there is an option "install supersu into /system"
Is unchecked from default.
What it does?? (i search Internet but i didn't find any information...)
It is good to check it? or it isn't necessary?
Thank you.

You can't root that way. If you use JB use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087424
P.S. Sorry I read it too quickly. You do not need to do that.

Yes but what is the meaning to make SuperSU a system app??
If some one knows please explain...
Thank you!!

Its mean that supersu will install like other system apps and cannot uninstall unless you revert back that setting or delete using file browser or titanium backup

1. That you can't uninstall it like other apps installed from play store
2. Need to remove it from system/app folder
3. Does not mean anything to it functionality

beware
I accidentally ran the script that installed SuperSu in a protected mode and made it a system app. Since then, I can no longer flash CM11 on S3 SGH-i747. Recovery after the install asks if I want to fix root, yes-no....not matter what I answer, the rom just reverts back to stock so beware.

If I choose it will it stabilize the system so when I reboot it will keep root?
I had it all set up rooted and SuperSu and went to back it up so I could just use twrp recovery and restore it and still be rooted and just like it is after rooting and all.
I made the back up and did the required reboot and when it finished I lost root.
Will this work?

On Galaxy S Advance I9070? Check if you have USB debugging ON (when you said you lost root). This will not make it more stable, SuperSU.apk is just a GUI for controling root. And you root with SU file that is pushed to system (can't remember what folder exacly).

The USB debugging has a check mark . Is that the way it's supposed to be to save root during a reboot or do I revoke USB debugging authorization ?
I choose USB debugging it when I did the root process.
And it's a Galaxy S4 SGH-i337Z

I had it rooted with Kingroot.
As far as I know that's the only way for this model of device.
Then using MrW0lf's method I replaced and removed Kinguser for SuperSU.
I was still rooted.
I wanted to make a backup so when using restore I could retain root and SuperSU in my system.
The setting of choosing to make SuperSU a system app in stead of as it is, I thought would make it possible to keep root.
I have used restore while having root with Kinguser and kept root.
I am not understanding why I loose root when restoring while having SuperSU.

I do not thing that moving SuperSu to System partition would help you. Main file that enables root permissions are not in that apk, you can install SuperSu from the Play store. That is not the problem.

Do you know why I loose root after a restore?

Same thing. It just tells me something about KNOX, then I try to remove it and it says "Installation Failed! Please reboot and try again. Same thing happens when I say not to remove it. About ready to just give up on rooting and go back to 5.0

When you phone boots up, does it show a unlocked padlock? When you put towelroot on it and click to "make it rain" does it say "You should now have root, no reboot required" or " This phone isn't currently supported"? Uninstall Supersu restart phone and install Supersu again. It shouldn't be giving you any problem as this is the only baseband that can be rooted.

Can you go into Supersu? If you can then go into Supersu settings and do Full unroot and reboot and try towelroot again.

Kingo root https://www.kingoapp.com/ Just click to root again. (mine say N9005 because mine has a custom rom on it).
