SuperSU and multiples users on nvidia Shield K1 Help - SuperSU

Hi im really new with Android but i manage to root my Nvidia Shield Tablet K1 using SuperSU and TWRP on android marshmallow 6.0.1 with no problems ! i use Root checker and it said it have been rooted
But if a create a new user it seams that the new user doesn't have root permissions and i don't know how to "transfer" SuperSU to the new user

Issues running app's with root permision

Hi there,
I Installed SuperSU 2.36 using TWRP (following the process in Nexus Root Toolkit app) and it looks fine but when I'm trying to run some app with root permisions like XMODgames or GameKiller the root permission screen appear and I select Allow (Permitir) but when the app is trying to run some game it say No Root access... I saw the register into Supersu (even I bought the Pro Version) and it show error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported...
I verified the root permission with Root Checker App and it looks fine as rooted... even I tried successfully to re-install Supersu and update the binary and everything looks fine but all the app's that are asking root permission (and I already granted) does not work. the register show the same error message about PIE on each app...
I have a Nexus 7 (wifi 2013) with 5.0 LRX21P compilation...
Could you please help me to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
Those app are not supporting Lollipop yet. Contact their developers, this is not fault of SuperSU.

[Q] Root without supersu app

Hello,
I want to use a Moto G 2014 in some kind of kiosk mode. That means modified rom with only one application that runs in front of everything. This application, all future helper scripts and system binaries must have root access. So I would like to have a su binary without the supersu app, that may pop-up and ask for permission.
I know I can change the settings of supersu not to pop-up and ask. But I recently had some problems with this settings and the dialog showed up again.
I would feel much better if there was a way to run the su binary without the needed interaction with the supersu app. I have googled for a few hours and read threads here in the forums. But I haven't found a good way to do this. Most answers refer to a normal phone and why the user should keep supersu.
- Do you have any glue how to do this?
- Is the su binary of supersu somewhere OpenSource, so I can modify it to get rid of the communication with the app?
- Are there any alternatives to supersu that work with lollipop?
- Is there already a working patched linker for the Moto G 2014 to bypass PIE
Alternatives:
https://github.com/koush/Superuser/issues/268 seems not to work with lollipop because of PIE
Thank you for your help!

Missing root settings in Privacy Guard in CM12.1

Quick question: why does my Privacy Guard in CM12.1. not show any root access settings at all?
Hi, just bought Amazon Fire Tablet 7", updated to 5.1.1., and installed CM12.1. with SuperSU. Everything worked. However, I decided to switch to CM's built-in root enabler (because it's open-source), so I ditched SuperSU through SuperSU's "Switch superuser apps" feature in SuperSU settings. SuperSU was automatically uninstalled, then I enabled the root privileges through Developer Options and this method too worked like a charm.
However, my Privacy Guard does not show the root access settings, so I have no control whatsoever on which application can or cannot have the root privileges, except turning root off altogether. A few root applications, e.g. AdAway, are working without problem but I was never prompted to grant them the root access in the first place. I've installed new applications, such as Greenify, but it too can access to the root without me explicitly granting the permission. I've also checked if Privacy Guard works at all, and it does, when I disabled locations service, I was prompted to enable it.
I did a factory reset within CM12.1. but to no avail. Any ideas or suggestions? If possible I'd like to get this sorted and try every solution before reverting back to SuperSU. Cheers.

Don't have a definitive answer; there are various bug reports from users who have dabbled with SuperSU and the integrated CM12.1 root manager. Thoughts:
- reinstall SuperSU as it is well respected and will likely restore app level access permissions with minimal effort/fuss/risk
- if you prefer to stick with the integrated root manager I would suggest clean flashing CM12.1
- however, since your devices bootloader is likely > 5.0.1 you'll need to use a tool like FlashFire which carries increased risk (albeit small)
- developers tend to test/validate rom updates with SuperSU - a possible consideration moving forward

Exactly what I am thinking; something is probably broken along the switching process. Cheers anyway.

SuperSU in CM13 and CM13 based ROMs

Is there any way to use SuperSU in CM13 or CM13 based roms such as Resurrection Remix? In particular on a Nexus 6P?
I ask because I have been using RR for quite some time now but until recently never really noticed the limitations of CM's privacy guard. SuperSU pro has always seemed like a better implementation of a Root management app to me when I've used it in the past on previous devices.
I had considered just disabling root access from the setting in developer options and then updating the binary from the SuperSU app via TWRP and hoping that SuperSU would take over root management after that but I have read that a few people have bricked/bootlooped their devices after doing that and I don't want to have to deal with fixing that.
Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

After disabling the root option within the Developer Options, when you open SuperSU and go to the Settings, do you leave the option for "Respect CM root settings" unchecked?
With CM/LOS, when you disable the root option, in SuperSU, you need to keep the "Respect CM root settings" unchecked or SuperSU will default the root to Disabled.
Many individuals don't know that.

I don't see that option at all after installing the SuperSU app. I have SuperSU pro too in case it makes a difference.
When I load SuperSU it keeps asking me to update the su binary through TWRP but my concern is that if I do this it will lead to bricking/bootlooping my Nexus since I already have CMs su binary installed as part of CM13/RR.
Do I need to perform the update before I can see the option? Also will it cause bootlooping if I replace CMs su binary with SuperSUs?

I am in the same boat. I am using the the latest RR FROM which is awesome, but I'm not wanting to use magical. Have always used super SU and stick Mount for my next SD. Would like to know the process for disabling manual and cm/Los root mgmt. To use Super SU. I can't use stick Mount with root explorer without super SU. WHEN I try to update binary it fails and if I try to flash in recovery, I get stuck in boot loop and have to restore backup.
Having a similiar problem on Galaxy S2 with RR 5.8.2 - installed SeperSu and it fails to update its binary when I choose 'normal'. Tried Cwm/Twrp option on a stock rom once and the phone got softbricked. Converting SuperSu to system app doesn't help.

No such option appears in SuperSu after disabling root access in dev options here also.
There was a time a while ago that I had asked something similar to to one of the CyanogenMod Team Developers.
I was told that when the Superuser option (in the Developer Options) is set to disabled, that means that the CyanogenMod systems Superuser access is left open. When one of the other options are set, that means that the CyanogenMod system is set to manage Superuser access that is seen by the new access to the Manage Root Access option below it.
So in short, disabled means root access is left open and CyanogenMod doesn't manage it.
If you use another root management app, like SuperSU, and leave the Root Access on disabled, then SuperSU takes on managing Root Access.
I've never had a problem with SuperSU and always left the Root Access disabled.
I hope i had explained it okay...

Disabled Root access in developer options, rebooted phone and started Supersu, it tries ro update its binaries and fsils again. Then I look for the "respect CM root settings" option but don't see it.
Some people are having success flashing the Supersu.zip through TWRP but isn't there a risk of replacing the RR bundled recovery and ending in bootloop? Is it possible to flash TWRP zip from RR recovery without causing more issues?

I attached an image of where in SuperSU the setting is but, I leave it unchecked...
Try flashing the SuperSU zip since flashing it also installs the binaries too.
