I want to root my kk verision. Is there a way to hide rooted status in the settings menu? Thanks.
Bruce
I think the only way to hide that is installing a custom stock rom. Xdaddebs I believe does this.

What he said. I tried the tweaks in Xposed but didnt work. XDAddebs works great.
plus if you install and aosp rom it doesnt even show in the menu. No where to show. If you wanna stay close to stock as possible like i stated above use the xdabbebs rom.

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?
What's the point of rooting an active if you can't do anything with it. Now you can't even get the new at&t update. Someone explain what the reason is please besides the thrill of pointless tinkering.

I do lots of stuff with my rooted S4A. Wanam Xposed, Pie Controls, frozen ATT bloat and Avast Firewall to name a few things. It even text messages and makes phone calls!
New update=yawn. 4.3 isn't a big deal (unless you want a Gear).

It depends on what you're trying to accomplish. I personally have root so I can fully utilize Titanium Backup to backup my entire phone, block ads, use Folder Mount to force files to be saved to my external SD card, install Cerberus as a system app to utilize more of its features, and install Xposed Framework and Xposed Modules to endlessly customize my phone and add additional functionality to it. It's up to you whether or not you think rooting is worth it. With that said you can always update to the official AT&T 4.3 firmware using the Odin files found in this thread.
Good points for your purposes granted. But I loved to change roms on my gs2 until I found cm, then I stuck with that one as my fav. I'm just frustrated that it is not that easy or even possible anymore, at least with this phone that I like and plan on keeping for a while.

Hey Devo, you run xposed framework on the stock rom with no issues? I had some problems with it on my sgh-i537 and some of the modules wouldn't work at all. If I tried to install the hypderive device tools(shutdown) menu, when I use the shutdown button my phone locks up and just shuts off, no menu ever appears. I really like alot of the hyperdrive functions, I'd love to be able to add the hyperdrive tweaks too, but never had any luck there either.
As concern me I will sell my s4 active No Roms No updates :'(

Yeah, I run Xposed on my stock ROM. The only issue I ever had was a few days ago when I updated XPrivacy and the phone refused to boot. I had to flash the Xposed disabler with SafeStrap. I run the GPE ROM in slot 1 so I can't speak to the way Hyperdrive works. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Ok, I see. so whatever is in your slots can affect your stock rom as well? I also ran GPE in another slot for a while and I liked it, but with the aroma installer and the hyperdrive tweaks, it really is something I'd like to stick with. I wish I understood more about what is shared and what isn't between roms in slots and the deal with the locked bootloader. We're a long way from Windows Toto, lol. Then again, I do networking, not programming so much.
So, do you run the advanced power menu module on your stock ROM? I really like the HyperDrive version, I think it's called HyperDrive Device Menu or something.
I want to say I installed wanam and xposed from apk files, no flashing. Maybe I need to start there. Thanks again.

I don't think that the Rom slots impact each other unless you are running low on space.
I don't have am advanced power menu and I'm not sure what the Hyperdrive one looks like. That said Wanam had a couple of options that extend the power menu that are worth a try.
Everything I've installed has been by directly installing an apk. Except for dark dialer, dark contacts, and call recording.

thanks for the info man. I will try the wanam menu and see, think I tried it once, but still had the issue with the button locking up. One thing for sure, installing these other ROM's gives me plenty of ideas of how to change my stock ROM! BTW, I love D.C. saw the FW's at the National Harbor last year, good time. There's an Amtrak that runs direct from here and you can drink on the train!

Hey Devo, how do you un-flash something? I flashed a accuweather transparent widget that doesn't work and I think it might have stopped my air gesture from working, just working back from things I have changed recently and that is one of them.

You need to open up the zip file and look inside the folders to see what files are flashed and where they ate flashed. This will tell you what files were changed our added then you can manually remove them. I would also ask the creator to post a zip that removes the necessary files to return to stock. It should be easy enough.

Quite a few apps don't work without root access. Plus it is necessary to be able to use tethering without a separate plan. Battery doctor, quickboot, app quarantine, and titanium backup are just a few on mine.
I have a Moto X (XT1056) with root access and recovery installed. It works completely fine on stock 4.4.4 ROM but on any custom ROM like MIUI or CM11, it's Roaming Indicator keeps flashing. I have tried changing its network modes but still it keeps on flashing. I can receive messages and calls but can't make any call or send messages. What to do?
Please post questions in the Q&A section

Wanna know what I would do? Flash the stock ROM, root, then install Xposed and GravityBox.

Well then, I suppose you have to decide what's more important then: being able to use your phone as intended or having a theme.
I really just want to install g3tweaks box but I can't get xposed to install :/ suggestions?
Should I just downgrade my firmware and install a custom recovery and a 5.0.2 Tom so I can have my customs navigation bar again or? Any suggestions. I only want a few tweaks so I don't see the need to install a custom rom but I'll do whatever it takes

Hi guys, I am getting tired of not being able to use several banking apps, and therefore would like to unroot the phone. I've tried several hide my root apps, including RootCload and xpsosed framework without success. Would be grateful if anyone could help me to do a perm unroot. I've tried the full unroot functionality in SuperSU, but that doesn't seem to work. Are there any ADB commands or any files I can flash in order to unroot? Btw, running CyanogenMod 13 st. of Sept version.
All help greatly appreciated.

As far as I know you can't disable root access in Cyanogen, even if you turn it of in developer settings.
sent from my Mi5
CM (since 12? 13?) has its own root mechanism which is built into the ROM, you can't disable that.
Ah, ok. That seems to add up, since I've tried several options to disable it. Are there any ways to hide the root that actually work? rootcloak and xposed framework didn't work for me.

Like everybody has stated: CM and root are combine
If you like unroot, then loose CM and flash Miui using fastboot

If you build with "eng" or "userdebug", yes.
If you build with "user" then no root is included, you need then SuperSU or similar to get root access back.
I have such a "user" build with own releasekeys available, if someome wants to test his apps with it, let me know.
