Hi, I need someone's opinion on this.
I have an unlocked and rooted HTC One, and in recent time I get this "superuser request" for the phone app. I get it every day, and every day I set it to prompt me again in "15 minutes" but it prompts me once every day. Today I unchecked the option to ask me again and denied the request, in the pictures attached, you can see the request and "message" I get after denying. In the third one you can see what message I get when I try to enter SuperSU app. If i try to update it says that the update has failed and that I reboot my phone and try again, but that doesnt work. Please tell me what is this?!

I also experienced this issue where "phone" is requesting SU access. Never figured out why, but I denied access and not experienced any issue. Looks like some process is trying to change permission to read/write to /sys/ (chmod 666 /sys). When you have a doubt about something requesting SU, always deny access.

You only need to update your SU binaries. Update it using twrp/cwm method, not the "normal" method.

It's happened to everyone and is scattered around everywhere, but how do I go about fixing this error? None of my root apps can access anything anymore and I get this error in Terminal when trying to "su".

What were you doing before it was denying SU?
Usually a wipe will fix that. Recovery (Home + Power) => Alt-W => Alt-S with your preferred ROM.

Well the OTA update may have had something to do with it...so who knows.
You installed an OTA update? Of course you're going to lose root. Now you've given yourself the task of re-rooting.

AHH! Please forgive me! This should work:
mount system
cat /system/bin/sh > /system/bin/su
chmod 04755 /system/bin/su
if that doesn't fix the issue, try the same , but replace last line with chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

try that in RECOVERY (just to be safe)
i'm not sure what I was doing before I lost it...I know it worked before a shutdown/restart, and then the phone came on without it working. I'm using a theme which I flashed but SU worked fine. Never installed an OTA update.
I'll try those prompts in recovery.
Did you turn off USB Debugging? I've had problems with su and the SU Permission app if I turn that off under the Application > Development section.

wooww, MAJOR thanks , I never thought of this and I almost recovered my whole setup (since I had a amonRA rec that was not for dream, without terminal..)
all the time things were crashing, I thought the build was bugged.. thanks
Never had this problem. Still have USB Debugging turned on and I can access SuperUser via both Terminal Emulator and SUFBS Terminal.
Did you get that app that promises root or did you downgrade to RC29 first?

the problem occurs when its OFF
ok so as the title says.... when i boot my phone up it says SU binary outdated, tap here to update.... so i tap and i get a fail...
Downloading manifest... fail!
also ran into this issue today. Whats the solution? Just wait until things become fixed?
Well, I know this is HTC section but It think this does not matter....
(Nexus-S, CM7, matr1x kernel)
same issue occurred on my nexus one with CM7.0 latest nightly ROM. trying to tap updating fail...... seeking for resolution to settle this issue....
i forget what i did exactly, but try replacing 'su' and 'superuser.apk' with a newer one..., make sure your updater/update-script is installing su properly
my friends droid X is doing it too..anyone know whatsup w/ it?
im thinking of uninstalling su and downloading it again off the market....yay or nay?
Got that last week. I hate the new superuser. Didn't work the same as the last version. Oh well, I'll just have to deal with it. BOO HOO HOO!
su binary outdated -nexus s
same thing happened to me. I got a notification saying su binary outdated click here to update. I clicked it and it failed to connect. so I just kept clicking retry again and again it worked after about 5 tries.
I went into the android market and updated it through there. It worked fine after that. =]]
I tried updating and I get the following message
"cannot update the su binary on phones that have some kind of write proteccion on the system partition like S-on"
Then I installed and ran the "fix" and when trying to fix, it force closes.
I have now deactivated the outdated su binary warning window from popping up but I am still wondering how to fix the problem.
cheers
So I just rooted my Motorola Droid since my contract expired with Verizon. I'm using this phone as practice so I'm not afraid to brick it. After using the superoneclick method to root the phone, it installs superuser fine, and I can access the app. I installed ROM manager for obvious reasons and every time I try to flash a recovery, it freezes at the point where the app is supposed to ask me for superuser permissions. I tried using titanium backup and it is not asking for permissions either. I then go into the superuser app and did the "Tap to check for updates" under the Su binary v3.0.3 label. The update fails every time on the "Gaining root access..." step. I tried unrooting and rerooting and everything. I went into the superuser settings and set the automatic response to "allow" and am still getting nothing. I have also force closed superuser, and then cleared all the data before restarting.
Am I just missing something important? Or am I just unlucky to the point where nothing I ever try in regards to rooting works the way it is supposed to?

I had this issue too, but i coudnt fix it, updating the SU app wont change your phones binaries, i updated but in the end it couldn ask for root permisions and update failed, so i decided to go to options and hide the outdated binaries notification and troubles solved, i know its not the best way but at least it wont bother me anymore lol
try superSU, i tried on my friend tablet when superuser didn't want to update then it automatically solve the problem.
idk if it will works on yours but it never hurts to try...
look if superuser is listed on the list with apps that get root (in superuser-app)
if yes => delete it, close it, reopen it and try again to update
if not => reboot, DONT DO ANYTHING BESIDES THE FASTEST WAY into superuser app and then try updating
if 2 is not working, retry it about 5 times. worked for me once. (not exactly at 5 times, but i ha to repeat this and on one try it suddenly worked. strange but....well...did the job)
Thx guys, it helped. I just rooted my phone again and the problem is solved.
I have sought on way to update my SU app,
but i flash many root's app and the old version persists
any idea ?

Could always use adb interface and push latest su binary to it. Then try to load supersu app.

Hi all,
today i was playing with my New One and suddenly this "ResetNotify" popped out asking for SU permission, anyone knows what this process/app is and what does it do?
My phone is on stock rom, rooted with SuperUser, clockwork recovery, and Xposed mod only.
Thanks!!
I tried searching "ResetNotify" but i couldnt find any information, has anyone seen/encounter this? i didnt had the chance to copy down the process but i believe its com.htc.resetnotify?
just wondering if anyone has seen this and what does this process do that requires root permission? if i never rooted my phone it would still work?
I see (or at least saw) it on a regular basis. I also did a search to try and find out what it was about. Eventually decided to ignore it unless virus apps started to scream about it.

Same problems, any idea ?
Install SuperSU (update the su binary too) and wait for it to happen again. Then go into Logs and see what app called it
Well??? What called it?
I'm also facing this issue.
I'm rooted, unlocked bootloader, custom recovery (TWRP), STOCK rom.
I did not grant permission figuring this is some ploy by htc to check if their devices are rooted and perhaps unroot it? Is that even possible?
Has this happened with any other prior HTC devices? anyone have answer to this?

SuperUser Pro is required to use this feature
com.htc.resetnotify is a common one across multiple htc devices, based upon what I can glean from the forums. I just went ahead and blocked it though. If I didn't have the device rooted, it wouldn't ask me for root privileges, so I just denied it and it shouldn't make a difference vs a stock setup.

If you don't know what it is, the best approach/security is to deny permanently. Think of it like the key to your house. Are you going to give a stranger a key so he can come in and do whatever, whenever?
Had this issue today, too. After granting temporary su permissions to the process I could see a toast that it was setting Filesystem rights. Unfortunately I couldn't see what permissions were ser on what file.
After that I permanently denied su permissions for resetnotify but probably changing fs rights is permanent.

I just got this too. I've had the phone since Tuesday. Unlocked, recovery and rooted... but still on stock. I denied it too. Just wish I could find an answer as to what it actually is.
Would love to know what it is. I used to get regular requests from it but I might have granted it permanent su

I just had the same request and I have the same concerns as others on this thread.
Is it a 3rd party app that initiated it?
If it is an HTC call, then why?
This happened first on my HTC one that I've had for a week.
Tmobile M7, unlocked,, TWRP recovery, rooted, and stock Sense 5 for five days.
It is a HTC app letting you know that your device has had an reset/data wipe and I think it wants to help you restore your data or settings.
You saw this after you unlocked your bootloader which wiped your data right?
Same problem here as well. Didnt give it rights though.
Same problem here, and I denied. It popped every day.
My guess..

The first time I got this i assumed it was part of the "your phone has recovered from an abnormal reset send report to HTC" message that you get after rebooting from CWM. I imagine, if we didnt have root access it would just send the info to HTC with out asking for permission. I could be wrong, but it just seemed to make sense to me.
Happened to me a moment ago, denied it but now asking to "Setup the phone"...
This also happened to me just now, just after midnight local phone time. HTC One SV, newly (over 24hrs ago) rooted, stock HTC Sense.
I've looked in all apps and ResetNotify reports:
ResetNotify
version 2.10
Can be Force Closed
Cannot be Disabled
Show Notifications is ticked on and cannot be changed
Total 4.00KB
App 0.00B
USB Storage 0.00B
Data 4.00KB
Phone Storage 0.00B
Permissions:
System tools:
Prevent phone from sleeping
Run at startup
When it requested SU I hadn't rebooted my phone recently but I do recall having the "HTC phone home" messages after unlocking with CWM bootloader, but before rooting.
Obviously, I refused ResetNotify from having SU as it wasn't an app that I had manually started. No adverse affects as yet.
