So if I was to create something with Tasker App Factory on a rooted device, doing something that requires root, then use that app on another device.. Would that app request su access to run? I guess what I'm asking is would that app work on a non rooted device?
Nvm. Just answered my own question. Yes, still required su access.

Hi is it possible to unroot the z1 only to be able to use an app that controls for root and doesn't work with root?
Not sure I got this - so you have an app that checks for root access and doesn't want to run if root is available? May I ask what app that is?
I'm not an expert, but have you tried disabling superuser access in SuperSU/Superuser? Although I guess that might not be enough.
In my case it's timvision. It's an Italian app to watch movies. As I start the movie playback it tells me it can't be played due to root. I tried to uncheck the option in supersu but it doesn't work.
i think what you are searching is an app called rootcloak
you can select for which app you dont want to show that you are rooted :good:
App tried but didn't work.
I'm afraid solution is complete unroot, I'm Italian too (hi there ), and when I try to use sky go it blocks some functions because of root
When you have disabled the option in supersu then clear cache and data on the app you want to use and try again
Hi,
I have the lg optimus l90.
I used the towelroot app to root the phone. i used a terminal app to verify that i do have root. when the app opened, it displayed a $ sign but when i typed "su" and pressed enter it gave me a "#" prompt. so am i rooted?
also i was told to install the superSU app. why do i need this? can't i just uninstall the bloatware right now since i am rooted?
I installed the superSU app but it was not able to install the su binary because i did not reboot the phone after using towelroot. I uninstalled the SuperSU app. anyhow, what do I need to do now to remove those bloatware apps. there is no option to uninstall in the apps section of the android settings application.
finally, I read somewhere that i should use nobloat app to uninstall the bloatware but it is not uninstalling the bloatware. I uninstalled it.
so what do I do now?
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks.
Superuser is needed for apps to have root rights to your phone. Install superuser. Reboot phone and open app. Reboot again if needed. Rooting is useless without superuser installed

Along with root and SuperSU, you will also need a root App manager or root file manager. I personally prefer to use ES File Explorer as it is both an application manager ( user and system ) as well as an awesome file manager.
There is no list of acceptable system apps to remove. So be very careful as to what you uninstall or you may endup with a soft bricked phone or one that spazzes out whenever it feels like it. I would recommend making backups of any app you want to remove before uninstalling it. At least you might be able to restore them if something goes wrong.

thank you both for the replies.
so what exactly is SuperSU for? when I opened it up I saw nothing in the apps list and I did not see anything else in the other lists within the app. also, I did not restart the phone before trying to update the su files and when I did restart the phone nothing updated. So, do I use something like ES file explorer to remove bloatware?
by the way, when I tried to surf the web after installing superSU app, the web browser was extremely slow. the webpages loaded very slowly but when after I uninstalled the superSU app, it was loading the pages fast again as normal. what's up with that?
thanks.

SuperSU is a binary executable that grants or denies superuser requests. Without it root is worthless.
You won't see anything in SuperSU permission list until an app asks for superuser permissions. When first opening the SuperSU app you should get prompted to update/install the su binary. Allow that action to happen.

That's because the su binary was never updated.

so in order to run something like the nobloat app I need to grant it permission to be a superuser? I never had to do anything like that when I ran the nobloat app and It actually worked. It still does not make sense to me what supersu is used for.
That's because the su binary was never updated.

I ran the towelroot app and it was successful. However, I did not reboot the phone before attempting to update the su binary and the superSU app said i should restart before updating. I restarted the phone but it never updated the su binary when I ran the superSU app again. What do I do now?
thanks.
Hello, i know this is a stupid question but what is "Root privilege"
I was installing game killer to cheat a game on my Moto x play and it said "Root privilege is needed" and I already rooted my phone, can anyone tell me what should i do? I can't mod the game now :/
Root with latest SU either system or systemless does not matter and try again
Try opening your Superuser or SuperSU app and making sure root access for said app is set to "Grant".
Hi

Hello guys, so as the title says, I want to install the " Dissable Application " app which can also be found in Play Store, but that app also needs root and I kind of want to avoid rooting my phone entirely..
Do you have a workaround just to allow this app to do its magic if it's possible? Maybe using the adb or stuff like that?
Anyone who knows more about this, please write few steps below.. and I am really sorry if I seem a little too unexperienced.
If you want to disable apps you can always use CCSWE App
