I am a newbie, I need advice, I root my s5mini (verified roothecker), but I do not know how to change the root rights for whatsapp, I have to reinstall it (he was on the phone before root installed)?
Go to supersu app and uncheck root permission

Having problems with Root Explorer. I open app, and it tells me that it cannot gain root. Does not go any farther. I know I have rooted, as I am using Titanium Backup and have backed up my apps (And also put apps on the color nook using TIBU). I have tried to uninstall Superuser using ADB, and to install a newer version, but have failed. I am using Superuser 2.3.6.1. Help needed!!
Sounds like root explorer needs to be added to your superuser whitelist...

Hey guys,
I've been messing around with my phone trying out nadlabak's CM6 for milestone. After removing it (because of lack of apps2ext) i flashed my nandroid recovery back (GOT android 2.1 with root) but somehow I seem to have lost my root access.
The superuser.apk is still present, and opens listing apps granted access, but all my other apps that require root (setcpu, titanium backup, autostarts etc) does not have root access.
I currently use Androliani's recovery but running the root script causes my phone to hang.
Any idea why / solutions?
You need to root again your milestone by using z4root. After that all your required root apps can be used. I'm sure you know how to install this app,right?
Just place the app at the root of your sdcard,ON the phone and use app installer,or open astro file,etc to install the app.

sweet. worked like a charm! thanks!
No problem..
That's the purpose of a forum,to help out one another..
Now we have root, is there a way to run apps that detect for root such as HBO GO and others? Is it a simple matter if denying such an app root privileges, or does it require un-rooting?
Thanks in advance.
Download rootcloak and the xposed framework.

Hi all
I've run into this this morning just to realize that it had happened before :
swapper2 app, which has had root access since I installed it (of course), requested root access but under the name "swapper2 [uid]".
I granted the access and checked in SuperSU, the app appears twice, once as "swapper2" and once as "swapper2 [uid]".
There is another app with "double root access" : catlog.
Can someone explain why this is so, and whether I should worry or not ?
For the moment, I removed the second root access of both apps.
It's a quirk in how these apps request root access. If the first time the [uid] variant showed up was when actually using those apps, then there is nothing to worry about.
Open supersu go to settings uncheck Re-authentication
I don't want to uncheck re-auth, I want to be that the apk running with root is the one I allowed to run with root.
Those two apps where not updated, swapper2 was sideloaded, I don't think it's available on the play store.
