[Q] this device does not have proper root access - HTC One X

hi,
I just rooted my HOX, and installed cynagenmod 10.1 , i unlocked the boot loader and install the custom rom through CWM as given on the internet everywhere , but when i try to run titanium backup it says not properly rooted, and when i checked from a root checker it says DEVICE NOT PROPER ROOT ACCESS, i read some where and download the SU bin and arm file and flashed them through CWM in recovery mode , and also flashed the bin first and then the other other file , but when i run TB it gives the same error.

You need to uninstall SuperSU if you were rooted before installing cyanogenmod, as CM comes with another superuser app... SO go into your apps find superSU and uninstall it

You lose installed apps, settings that you set when you started the phone, WiFi, wallpaper, texts/phone log, contacts
If you pick to back up to Google when you first set up the rom you can restore all the above apart from texts and call logs.

Root gone after Dalvik and Cache Wipe

Hi , after wiping dalvik and cache i lost root. Now I cant regain root access.
Superoneclick doesn't work. I used MIUI rom before. Any suggestions?
Are u sure u got s-off before?
This sounds very strange... if u only got root and no s-off this could happen...
Check some guides here to get s-off...

Can you flash a nandroid backup? I had this happen on another device and all I had to do was restore a backup from before the loss of root occurred. Just a thought....
I tried doing the S-off today, not sure if it worked.
Anyways, I can still do a nandroid restore and get my root back.
Im still clueless on how to solve my problem.
I can fix the Alt Lock problem if I wipe but I lose root and can't regain root access.
In order to restore root, I have to restore by backup but then I will lose Alt Lock.
but you still have the superuser app right?
try to open it, press menu and go to the settings
maybe you need to activate root permissions there

Solved my problem. Thanks.
Apparently the Superuser app that I have on MIUI is different from the one in the market. Didn't see that option before to activate root permissions.
Thanks

One do you have CWM installed. If so boot to recovery and wipe Dalvik cache and wipe cache partition.
Make sure these are the only permissions set ON; Read-Owner, Read-Group, Read-Others and Write-Owner.
This should reset the application back.

Unofficial ClockworkMod Recovery v.5.0.2.6

many force closes r occuring google services framework and android.process.acore
Sounds like you did more than delete the com.android.providers.contacts.apk.
You might be better off re-flashing your ROM or do as ahmadns said and just run the RUU to restore your phone.

You can use ES File Explorer from the market, its free. Navigate to the apk(/system/app) and set the permissions.
i havent deleted anything else..hmm ok help me with re-falshing or running the RUU
By chance did you try to change the permissions on the apk after you copied it back? Then you would need to reboot the phone after, my bad I forgot to state that.
But if that did not work, then go to here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074445 and find your version RUU.
ya i changed da permission...should i put da same RUU or can i put a different one?? i was planning to do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1260590

Since you have CWM installed then do use Jikantaru ROM, he does excellent work!
Other wise if you ran the RUU it would over right the CWM and root, so you would have to do that all over again, unless you just extracted the rom.zip file and installed that thru CWM.
ok...will this fix my problem?? i have 4 custom roms im a lil confused which to select http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314430..i would prefer this bcoz i need internal memory or this 1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317931....then cm7 port and da other one which i hav already told u b4...
In essence yes. This will wipe and install a fresh ROM. If I was you, try all of them to find which one better suites your needs. They are all developed by talented people with each there own style and taste. Just try them at least for two days each to properly understand the differences. You will not go wrong with any in my opion.
after installing custom rom can i change back to original rom??

[Q] still no root acces

Hello Hox owners,
I rooted my hox a while ago.
Just before the latest update came.
To get the last update, I needed to go back to stock recovery.
This went well I thought but since I have the Wifi problems i was looking at my phone closer and saw I got the stock recovery but SU app still installed.
I want to gain root access again, remove the superuser app, and unroot it fully because I need to send my phone back for repair soon (I hope).
The clockwork was installed succesfully, the latest version of superuser as well, update binaries also flawless but somehow still no root access according to es filemanager and titanium backup...
What do I need to do to get this fix?
Thnx in advance!
Ralph

Maybe those apks were denied permissions for some reason. Try going into superuser & clearing all app default settings & reboot.

Thnx for the reply but no apps are visible inside SuperSU.
Titanium was installed after I "rerooted" my hox.
There is no clear cache option inside SuperSU, right?

Can you get root checker from the market. & confirm that the Su binaries we installed correctly? If that app says your rooted then maybe try clearing superuser data. & reopening your apps.

How to change SuperSU to Superuser?

Im currently running JMT which uses SuperSU. I would like to use Superuser. Ive tried just flashing Superuser, but how to remove SuperSU?
I posted this in the ROM's thread, but never got an answer so hoping someone here will know
Delete the Superuser.apk in the ROM (it's really SuperSU) and pull the "real" Superuser.apk from somewhere else.

I'm curious, but would it just be a matter of updating the binaries with Superuser?

Um, even easier...
Download SuperUser recovery flash zip and while still inside Android on device go to file manager open /system/apps and delete the SuperSU.apk
Now restart to recovery clear the cache and dalvick cache
choose install from SDCard
Find where you downloaded SuperUser.zip and flash
Restart
SuperSU is WAY better at handling Super User requests [for instance, it has a wait state on the pop-up where it does not go quite as fast so some apps that take a min to request super user and another min to display the pop you aren't already at 1 - 2 seconds] and for instance for quite some time Super User was known to seg fault [basically an error happens and it doesn't work to grant access right when that happens] whereas SuperSU was created later to kinda address that and some other issues in SuperUser [not saying SuperUser is bad it is updated and does it's job, it's just SuperSU does it better].
Just if any guide says use SuperUser just replace SuperUser with SuperSU when doing something and in app drawer just look under SuperSU for it's app and not SuperUser.
Thanks for the help and input guys

which root package you installed? can you provide a link to it?
first check you have root access successfully or not through Root checker.....Then Install Superuser from playstore.
Try installing the super su version and deleteing the other superuser and in settings of the supersu check and or click on install to system or system app and it will install it as a system app and probably won't disappear
