No
Thanks !
Flashed it and it is working fine except Superuser. Any app which needs and uses Su generally freezes.
Can you inject latest su in this release m buddy???
NEOHACK
They updated super Su so it now works with our ics crap. If you jump on market install Super Su not superuser. It will let you update to the newest binarys. Then with root explorer or whatever nav to system apps and delete the superuser apk. On all up comming updates I will be using super Su. Not superuser.
Did you update the su binaries??
NEOHACK
I just did on my tab using super Su

I expect your talking about root explorer and tibu. They both freeze on this device. But I don't think its a super user issue as they both open and work fine but at a random point freeze. it seems more like a app issue then anything. They both have done that since day one of owning the device. I'll see if I can find the issue. Reason I think its app related is because I use a ton of rooted apps and a ton of root file explorers and root explorer is the only one with a issue.
Thank buddy I am in process to make a custom rom for tab 2. Let's see how it goes
NEOHACK
I dont think it app related.
Root Explorer worked beautifully earlier with Full Stock ROM so I know its not app problem. Currently even DroidWall and LBE Privacy also froze. Will switch back to Superuser and report.

Try super Su not super user. And you where on 403 I think if your were running stock. The rooted version I have posted is 404
When does droidwall crash? I'm trying to get it to freeze.

No I will completely replace SuperSu with Superuser through flashable zip.
I was on DDBLF3 only
I think I alrdy have superuser on this release. I switched to super Su on my tab via market and it auto updated binarys without loosing root. I then deleted super user apk from system apps via root explorer. Lemme know what ends up working for you. I'm leaning towards SuperSu since it updates without failing. SuperSu is superuser rebuilt and modded to handle some of the newer issues that showed up with ics and gbean

DROID BIONIC
Android Version: 4.0.4 ICS
System Version: 6.7.246.XT875.Verizon.en.US
So i finally rooted my phone and got superuser. But the method didn't give me a safestrap or bootstrap file to download.
I went online and have dowloaded multiple safestrap apk files (1.0, 2.11, 3.1) and they all said they run on ICS. So i install then and when i go to run them it prompts me and says "unfortunately, safestrap has stopped." and it's followed by another little pop-up that says "Safestrap has been denied superuser permissions." So i can't get into recovery to flash any roms. I'm not sure what to do.
I've tried to wipe the data, caches, and restore my phone, nothing helps. And i made sure my USB debugging is on. But after everything i've tired all my recovery apps still force close and don't get permission. I've also tried to flash my roms using the stock recovery and nothing happens.
I also downloaded titanium back-up and when i go to open the app it notifys me that it doesn't get root permissions, that my phones not rooted. Now with the ICS update theres a Root Check in the stock recovery and it reads “qe 1/1″- so that tells me i"m rooted. So i'm not sure there.
I don't know what to do. Maybe i'm missing a few steps. If anyone could help me out and point me in the right direction, i'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!
I got same issue
Did you get it resolved. I spent all afternoon only to be rooted but unable to acess recovery. any elder statesman that have any answers?
No, i haven't fixed the problem yet. Was hoping someone could help me out
This is what happens when i try opening any safestrap app i install.
I would suggest PM Hash code, he created the SS apk, if any one has the answer he would

Safestrap
Which version of Safestrap did you try? I prefer 3.1 as it has touchscreen capabilities. Do you by chance have bootstrap installed? This could be giving the error.
---------- Post added at 08:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 PM ----------
For the safestrap failing to be granted super user access error, you should be able to manually 'whitelist' it in your superuser application. If that does not work, you might want to try a different root program. I tend to use SuperSU, as I enjoy the features, and the realiability.
I tried the versions listed- 1.0, 2.11, 3.1
None of those worked. And no, I've never had bootstap installed. And what's the "whitelist"? I've never messed around with the superuser app, I've only just checked the log and see all my root apps get denied (titanium, safestrap, etc.)
And for the other root method: I'm not sure how to do any other methods, or even find any for that matter. I know my phones rooted, it tells me in my stock recovery.
If anyone could help me out by posting links, that'd help A LOT!

Has any application that requires Root Access, or Sudo, ever been granted Super User Permissions? If not, I have a feeling that your root was not preformed correctly. If I may ask, do you remember which "root" method you used? I used HoB Linux Edition, as I run Gentoo. HoB Linux Edition stands for House of Bionic Linux Edition. Here is a link for HoB. (Well, apparently I am unable to post links until i have posted atleast ten times. Message me on Google talk for the link. My GT is later on in this message).
There is a version for Windows, Mac, and the best of all, Os/Distros based off of the Linux kernel (which is based off of the Unix Kernel). As for the whitelist, you are able to go in and select which applications you would like to either always deny, grant, or ask for Super User Access. Again, I've mainly only used SuperSU, as i have had problems with most of the others out there currently. I would not go off of the stock recovery, as, for me at least, when I had an incomplete root, the stock recovery said I was rooted, even though I was not. If you could, could you please post a copy of the log from the super user program that you use? Also, which one do you use, again? If you are online/awake currently, message me on Google talk your questions. i will post anything that solves this issue in the morning. This is do to my mother decided that I need to go to bed. My Google talk is ([email protected]). My Google talk is also best to reach me for quick replies during the hours of: 0700 hours through 1530 hours as I am in my classes at that period of time (High School). Another quick question, did you ever go to Az or Fz Fastboot, during your root process? (Been rooted for over 1.5 years now, a little hard to remember). If not, I doubt that the Root was successful. I am sorry for my late response, as I was watching BSG Blood and Chrome, while shining my shoes for the ROTC inspection tomorrow.
Hope we fix this soon,

No, so far since i've rooted this phone superuse has denied every application. I use the superuser v3.1.3.
I was thinking just last night that my root was performed incorrectly, so i went to droidbionicroot website and downloaded a un-root method (as well as several root methods) But i haven't done it yet, I've read that it bricked some users phone's and i don't want that.
I'm on a windows and have tried several root methods. I think the one that actually worked for me was called "PetesMotorolaRootTools_v1.07"
Also, what's Az or Fz fastboot? I'm sorry, I'm still kinda new to this rooting stuff so i appreciate the patience.
I don't have a google talk so I'll just email you at the address. My email is [email protected]

Does TWRP ask you to install SuperSU when you try to exit it? I haven't tried on Lollipop yet, but I know when I've been running stock unrooted in the past, TWRP would prompt me to root when I restarted to system.

This method seems to work just fine for me. After installing supersu in TWRP then opened supersu selected TWRP and it downloaded the latest binaries and flashed in TWRP and worked fine after reboot.
I RUU'ed today to the newest Sprint M7 version. After downloading TWRP Manager got message that TWRP needs root permissions. Downloaded WinDroid, used it to flash TWRP. then used it to gain root access. WinDroid did not work for me on Windows 10 Tech Preview. Went to other hard drive with Win 7, and worked great. The thing I have noticed is that Root App Delete will not uninstall the Sprint bloat, or the Google crap (movies, TV, books, etc).

Unfortunately it does not. I even tried Philz to see if it would root and it's still a no go. Philz said I was rooted and just needed to download superuser from the play store. I downloaded super user and it says I need to root my phone.

Shouldn't need to install the superuser app. It should already be installed.
Root again and watch the process. Particularly watch to see if the system and cache partition successfully mount or fail.

Can you post a screen shot of root validator so I can see what got installed.
If the partitions mount as you say then there may be a problem with the supersu script.
You should not have to install any superuser app or update the binary as the exploit uses the latest binaries.
I will be turning in for tonight so if you can get the screen shots of the process where it mounts the partitions and where it installs the supersu files and a screen shot from root validator that will give me something to look at tomorrow.

Try replacing Kingroot with SuperSU first with this method http://zidroid.com/how-to-get-ride-and-replace-kinguser-with-supersu-app/
Then unroot using SuperSU.
It might work. I have done the first part but not the second.

After rooting with king root, if you reboot, then the root is gone. By normal methods, this should not happen, thats why the its often not encouraged.

I had created pre-rooted FTF strictly according to the instructions given. But that did not give me root. Why? Was the use of Philz Touch to flash the probable reason?
I am dreading going through the whole process again!
Is there a way to see if I have full root or not? Because Root Checker says I have root. Other super user activities run properly. Link2SD is able to integrate updates of system apps to /system successfully. If there is no read/write access to /system, then how is Link2SD able to do that?
Only in a file manager I am not able to modify /system files.
And funny thing is sometime back, I did have ability to modify /system. Don't know how I got it, don't know how I lost it.

You see KingRoot is the culprit here, I have gone through some threads, which also confirms that king root turns your system, write protected. Also not all apps need write access to system thats why other root apps works properly for you. Regarding Link2SD, they make symlinks to /system so not exactly writing to system.
I suggest you do a clean root by flashing by the correct method.

I do not understand what is going on here. I have flashed and lost root now.
In the previous version of Pre-Rooted Zip (which I had used) I had also included RICDefeat.zip. As all documents suggest that with XZDualRecovery it is not needed, this time I recreated a Pre-Rooted Zip from scratch using PRFCreator v1.1 (the latest available) with only the original FTF created using Flashtool, SuperSU 2.46.zip and XZDualRecovery 2.8.21.zip. PRFCreator worked seemingly without error and I got a nice final ZIP.
Then I booted into TWRP, flashed this ZIP. Everything seemed to go fine except I had an error at the end which said "unable to mount /system" (this was after SuperSU and XZDualRecovery were successfully flashed.)
On rebooting I find that I no longer have root. Does this mean that I cannot flash the firmware again?

Then I booted into TWRP, flashed this ZIP. Everything seemed to go fine except I had an error at the end which said "unable to mount /system" (this was after SuperSU and XZDualRecovery were successfully flashed.)
On rebooting I find that I no longer have root. Does this mean that I cannot flash the firmware again?

I'm sorry, but what are you trying to achieve here? I don't get it.

Full root with read write access to /system in stock firmware.
Flash Stock FTF thru Flashtool, Flash any custom kernel with recovery, flash SuperSu Zip via that recovery, now flash stock kernel then reboot. Done.

Apologies if I am testing your patience. Please tell me if so.
How about flashing an older kernel, rooting it using Towelroot, install recovery, flash SuperSU, flash current kernel?
I have not unlocked bootloader yet.
