Cant remove system apps after nougat update - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i flashed my note 5 with the official nougat firmware through Odin. Now i am unable to remove system apps such as the Microsoft apps,email, internet etc. I tried using "system app remover(root)" which shows failed uninstall. Then i tried using titanium backup after which my phone got stuck at the samsung logo during restart. I had to again flash the official firmware to get my phone working.
Any help to remove system apps will be highly appreciated
Solved: I manually deleted the apks by using root explorer and now it works fine.

Try a rootchecker to see if rooted properly. And maybe grant system r/w access

Thank you, was stuck with the same problem, root explorer worked.

Find it in google play and if you see and it needs update let it update then after that you will see the box with uninstall, use it to uninstall.
It just un-installs the update. I removed it from the menu inside and lost root. Then flashed speed mod for rooting and ran into partial root, had "shell has been granted superuser permissions" flashing continuously. Then had to boot into download mode and flash firmware again.

I haven't rooted again doc, and i uninstall it using the settings on the superSU, the Full Unroot, but it's too long i thought it hangs, and I canceled it and now it says SU binary cant be found. This is a problem! lol the latter made me laugh thanks for the reply.
P.S. I used factory setting and it's still there. (rooting again makes my hair in the back go up :/)
Without root access you can't change files in System ROM, so it will remain there even after factory reset.
If you are worrying about re root, then just flash Stock ROM with Odin, it will get removed.

Hello, I am having this same problem...I was rooted....then did a factory reset, upgraded to 4.1.2 (stock firmware) and now superSU is still stuck on my sytem. When i flash the stock firmware, supersu automatically starts to install updates from google play during reboot?? Once the updates install it still says i don't have root and also says "the supersu binary is not installed"....I just want to unroot it and get rid of superSU so that i can re root....when i try to re root as of now i get a bunch of errors like acore. has stopped, media has stopped etc and my phone wont work....please help?? I understand that reloading the stock firmware with odin is supposed to remove super SU but its not....I also cant find anything to do with superSU on my phone anywhere once i uninstall the updates....very weird...i just want to be rooted again...
i cant remove super su
i had some problems with my phone and i had to flash a stock firmware but after that, super su icon stayed there on my apps and i cant remove it to root my phone again(i think it is unrooted because it keeps showing me the message that it cant find any su bin). i tried to flash su again with cwm, tried factory reset, tried to unistall it directly from su but it doesnt go away and i cant root my phone. Please help me, im new to xda and sorry for my bad english.

have u fixed ur problem? ive got the same issue
Before flashing the new rom, use format system, data cache and preload. Then boot i to download mode and flash a stock rom. SU will be cleared.
Or
If su is accessible, there is an option to uproot from su settings.

Root problem on CM9 (i9001)

Hello!
I have a Galaxy S Plus, and I've installed CM9 by ivendor beta 4 on my lovely phone. After flashing become completed, I tried to use Titanium Backup. It starts, than it says: 'sorry I can't get root access, pls feed me with root etc.'. So I tried to update the su binary, and the busybox. Rebooted, started TI Backup again, but nothing changed. So I decided to re-root this great phone. Downloaded Root-i9001-Signed.zip, flashed it via CWM recovery 6. I started the TI Backup again but nothing changed, can't get root access. Pls help me. Thx.

OK Thanku for ur reply. can i also flash supersu in my stock rom. if so i have to just uninstall superuser and install supersu. pls tell me the procedure.
no don't uninstall superuser as you'll lose root rights... just install superSU and then in options click "switch superuser app" it will then install new binary code for superSU, then you can uninstall superuser.

Take the superuser app from your rom zip, place it in /system and set permissions. Or try to flash the rom without a full wipe (only /cache and dalvik). But I think downloading from the Play Store will also work.

Just reroot with bin4ry's latest root tool. It fixes the issue. Some roms still use the old root files where there's an issue when you mount rw, forcing your phone to reboot.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
I've tried rerooting with bin4ry's latest v30 root, but I have tried several times, but in Superuser app I get the same thing : su binary not found and then I've unistalled the Superuser application, and flashed from CWM the SuperSU.zip from Chainfire, now SuperSU is working, BUT I have the same problem : the phone reboots when mounting.
What should I do?
Thanks
Might not work but try binary v26
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Ok I will try it now.
L.E. : Thank you, it worked!
Yesterday was working fine, but now isnt working anymore the only difference is that I've installed through CWM the PureX soundMOD. Guess I have to reroot again? ) Any other solutions?
Solution :
adb shell
su
stop ric
then mount system with root explorer and delete /system/bin/ric
After that OTA doesn't work anymore.
Am I the only one who has this problem? Today after trying to paste an apk to system/app , forced reboot, and then another one after the SONY logo.
What should I do to get rid of this idiot problem?

Same problem here. Root Explorer to change R/W of /system, or copy a fire there make a reboot. Just re-root with Easy rooting Toolkit for XPEIRA Z SO-02E (ver 1.0.2) and works fine by far now, but not sure if it will happen again. (Rooted with bootloader BLOCKED)
I got another problem now, I've fully unrooted the phone with the SuperSU option, and now neither of rooting variants works. They stuck at here :
http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/8058/24461260.png
So no root with those methods, it worked by flashing through CWM the SuperSu.zip, but still I get forced reboots. I don't know what to do. Guess the only option is to do a full wipe, but I don't want to do that.

When you stuck there, try this: kill process adb.exe with task manager. Good luck.
Will try it when I get home. Thanks for the quick answers.
Not working : /system/bin/sh: can't create /sys/kernel/uevent_helper: Permission denied
Ok nice ...
Maybe I will reflash the firmware and do a full wipe, but I will stay like that for a while. Thank you anyway!

[Q] Phone is not rooting and shows no error

Hi
I have Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070P purchased from Singapore.
It has Android 2.3.6
It does not show Hindi fonts. So to overcome that I decided to root the phone and followed the steps as per the below thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660419
I downloaded the firmware from the following location
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/confirm/9237/I9070PDXLD3_I9070POLBLD4_SIN/
Everything works fine for the rooting and there is no error shown on the phone screen as well as on Odin screen. Everywhere it shows success.
The phone is restarted and working fine as before. But when try to access the Root Explorer, it says that the phone is not rooted??
Please suggest.
Thanks
Axit
Hi, when flashing the stock firmware via Odin/kies, any modifications that made (including root) will be lost.
For this problem, re-root the phone will fix it.

Check in google play "root checker". Install it and see what it say. Did you try to wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery? I'm not sure if it help.
