Rooted but superuser permission denied - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I recently restored my data and now I'm seeing that anyway to fix this ?

What action gave you permission denied?
Having Superuser in the app drawer doesn't mean you are rooted. It maintains a database of who is allowed root permissions. The real root is implemented by the su binary in /system/xbin or /system/bin. Maybe that got reset or removed when you restored.
If you are running EG30, EG31, EK02, then re-run Option A in the Auto Root package.

How does one run this auto root package? Or do u mean just re root using a pc again?

It is in the first few sticky posts of the development section. It is also in my signature, but you might not be able to see that if you are using a mobile app for the forum.

Use Android terminal and type "su". See if it asks you for permissions (or changes the prompt to #). That will tell you if the problem is with su or something else.

Rooted but no permissions
Hi, all,
I have a similar problem. I've got an original Droid rooted with SuperOneClick 2.3.3 (at least when I run SOC, it says I'm rooted). I have installed Wireless Tethering and AdFree and when I try to start either of them, they are denied superuser permissions. I reran SuperOneClick and tried the Allow Non Market Apps button, but shell is denied permissions when I try that.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

I had that problem over the weekend trying a experimental kernel but once I flash a different kernel the problem went away. I'm using rogue kernel right now it's pretty sweet too. What kernel are you running?
From the official iPhone killer.

I haven't flashed any rom. I just wanted the ability to use non-market apps.
Kernel is listed as 2.6.32.9-g68eeef5 [email protected] #1

You may have to uninstall and start over. Did you use the Odin method?
From the official iPhone killer.

Thanks for the response. I'm afraid I have done that. I don't know the odin method, so pretty sure I didn't do that. I used superoneclick, following instructions here. (And the thing is, all was well until a few weeks ago; phone was rooted and I was able to tether wirelessly. This is a VZW phone, and I remember reading something about them limiting tethering ability. But I don't know why that would make superuser refuse all permissions.) One thing I notice is that there is reference to gingerbreak exploit in superoneclick description, but I don't see that exploit when I use superoneclick. The file doesn't show up in the exploits folder, either. (I have turned off antivirus for this.) Might that be it?

Fwiw, I found a fix for this: Install SuperOneClick v 1.7 with rageagainstthecage option checked. Did that, then ran the non-market apps box, reinstalled wireless tether, then restarted. Phone is rooted again and wireless tether works!

adb shell su mount : permission denied
to enter into su,
install superuser on your mobile, keep your screen unlock.
adb shell,
then type su
$ wil chenge to #
now do the superuser commands on command prompt

You're talking about rooting the old Motorola Droid. This forum is for the Samsung galaxy s II (epic 4g touch) do not attempt to root using our method it won't work and will probably mess up your phone.Motorola and Samsung use completely different firmware

If you have a custom recovery, you can flash supersu.zip then reboot and have root.
I'll find the zip and link you to it.

[Q] Removing a r/o system app

I am trying to remove the SPG.apk (I believe that's Verizon's tether block application) from a stock rom that is already installed on my phone. I tried using root explorer however it won't let me. I believe there is a way to use adb to do this? If so, what would the command lines be?
use
Code:
adb uninstall <package name>

To delete anything off the /system partition in root explorer, you need to mount the it r/w first. There is a button on the top that should say "Mount R/W". You need to press that before deleting anything.
Root Explorer will let you remove anything you want.
Provided you click the Mount R/W button in the top right first.....

I wasn't sure if root explorer would function as a normal file manager without root. Especially considering he said he is running s stock rom.

Nope. It won't run without root. The developer has another file explorer called "Explorer" as opposed to "Root Explorer", and that one runs without root.

How to regain root?

I updated to 4.0.4 and now I no longer have root access. How do I get it back? Do I just do the root process over in the toolkit I originally rooted with?

nm finally got it I guess
My guess is that su.zip only has the binary, and it's missing superuser.apk
After flashing this zip, you have su, but only in the shell/cli. Superuser.apk is what allows GUI apps to use su permissions.

The Superuser.apk probably isn't the problem. It's more of a firewall. The apk let's you restrict access to certain apps, and grant permission to others.
To have root you need su, busybox, and the correct permission settings. Ergo, if you lost root, you probably either lost su, busybox, or your permissions have changed...

[Q] Rooting Help!

Hey everybody, got my HTC one 2 weeks ago and just received the 4.4.2 kit kat update from verizon. I want to root now and i realize it was really stupid to update to it and should of stayed on jellybean. Anyways I'm a complete Noob at rooting and have never done it before but i honestly hate htc sense, it looks really ugly in my opinion. I realize the risks about rooting and voiding your warranty and bricking your phone but i never had warranty on my phone so I'm only worried about the bricking part, can someone please inform me on how to root a HTC One 4.4.2 on verizon? or link me to a site when there is a one click rooting method available( if there is none currently). sorry for knowing nothing but i could really use someones help!! thanks!

You'll use the temp root method. It doesn't just give you temporary root though...it's just to the exploit can work. You'll be s-off and ready to roll.

haha ok sorry never mind i must of entered one wrong but they are working now, what should i do once i gain s-off?
Also what makes the temp root method different from the other methods? do you lose root once you reboot or what? (sorry I'm new to all this) and i know that s-off does not mean your rooted but have all the restrictions gone, how can i achieve root from this or do i just execute "temp root" in terminal?
UPDATE: when i attempt to execute the first command"adb reboot" it just prompts me with "error:device offline" what does this mean??
Temp root just allows the s-off exploit to work. Once s-off you flash a recovery and then superuser to get full root.
Did you try rebooting the phone and the pc?
Temp root won't work because your boot loader can not be unlocked with the temp root method. It was patched in 4.4.2

Make sure you go in settings and turn on usb debugging. Also go to power settings and uncheck fast boot.

turns out i forgot to uncheck fast boot, did everything again and after "adb reboot" now it says "device offline"
On your pc go to C:\users\your_user_name\ and look for and rename a folder named .android (to something like .android.bak.) Then reboot your pc and phone and try again.
ugh this is so annoying, i finally got "adb reboot" to work and it successfully rebooted but when i tried executing the second command i got this message "./adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp
cannot stat 'firewater': No such file or directory"
Is the firewater file in the same folder as adb.exe, and is the cmd prompt at the same directory? Its saying it cant find the firewater file on your pc.

I've a new one with 4.1.2 stock and none of method here works until I see this post and got recovery-hercules-6.0.4.3.zip installed.
I might write a new guide when I am done, but this one needs to be pinned because I wasted a whole day searching and trying!
Super big thank you :good:
P.S. I used the lastest version of Kinguser from a chinese version of Universal 4.1.2 Root Tool works for me and for those only want root and stay stock.
There is already threads on rooting here. They just are way down the list, but they're there.
Rooting is quite simple and hasn't changed in awhile. Using these tools that seem to be out there can be risky or not work, from what I've seen.
Odin and the appropriate files are all that are needed. Very easy on the S2. And you will still be stock....until you flash something.

And from my experience, Odin 1.85 is still best for flashing recovery.
And for stock 4.1.2 flashing, Odin 3.04.
1.85 to flash any stock images before jelly bean.

Edit: Went back into CWM and Re-Booted... When I clicked on it a new page loaded and had an option to Fix Root... Choose it and Re-booted.
Downloaded SU from Google Play and it worked now... HUGE THANKS....
Well Crap... Says it's rooted. Xmod is getting Permission from Super User.. Mod installed in the Game... launch from xMod and the Game Crashes.
Ok opened SU and it triggered KNOX... Clicked to let SU to try and disable KNOX.... Been on that Screen for 5min so far...I also get a Security Notice Stating Unauthorized access to a secured area has been blocked.

Unistalled SU and Restalled it. Let SU try and Fix KNOX again... Fixed it in just a Few Seconds.
Wroking 100% Now. The last issue was with XMod not the root.
