superuser - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

i am having some problem with superuser it is denying everything that comes its way. i tryed to uninstall it but cannt even do that i even paid for the upgrade but still willnt work

Try opening it, hitting menu, preferences, and then see what automatic response is set to. It may have somehow been changed to deny instead of prompt.

Chrome to Phone

Hi, after installing a custom Rom ( leeDroid, its the nuts !!), I cant get ' Chrome to Phone ' to work anymore, any help please. My pc says its been sent to phone, but I dont receive it.
Thanks.
have you lunched chrometophone on the phone yet and set up the account again?
Yes, have tried un-installing from phone, and re-installing. My browser says it had been sent to phone but I don't receive it.
Just to repeat TheGhost1233's response to your question:
You've installed Chrome To Phone on your device. But have you launched it and gone through the brief setup process on your device?
Yes, it did work, my phone tells me it's set up, I ticked the box ' launch links automatically ', but nothing happens.

[Q] super user problem

Dears;
I rooted my phone, and as a first thing I installed Titanium back up that have been granted of root access.
I set under the application menu "allow unknow sources", and I also activated the dubug mode under the "development" tab.
Now i cannot access superuser app anymore as everytime i try "superuser stops unexpectedly"..
I then went on menu-application-manage-and on superuser I cleaned the data.
Once done that I can access superuser menu again (that of course is empty as I cleaned teh data), but as I start titanium (and it gets root access) I cannot access anymore the superuser app!
How can I fix this?
Any idea?
SOLVED
guys..
I figured it out..in the case anybody would have the same issue the solution is easy..go in superuser and under settings update the "SU Binary"..once updated the problem will not pop up again.
in the case you cannot open superuser as keep getting " unexpectedly stopped" go into Application in your phone menu, choose "superuser" and select " clear data"..once cleared you can access superuser again and do what above described..
Cheers
Update didn't work for me, what i did is update superuser from market then update su.

[Solved] Broke permissions settings, nandroid can't fix, need help

Re-written to be more concise and readable:
Long story short: I installed the program "Permissions Denied" from the market and restricted a few games. When I rebooted something was broken and I can't quite figure out what, but it runs deep through the phone.
The phone isn't bootlooping, but when I starts up it will very often become unresponsive immediately after getting to the lockscreen, my theory is that things are trying to load and crashing in the background. The only fix for this is to wait until it appear to reboot itself; the screen will come back on and show me a quick few cycles of the boot animation, then back to the lockscreen. After this, it asks to re-activate on the network. Whether or not everything works after this point has been highly variable. Currently, my phone is on but has no way of signing into a google account (isn't even an option in the list under settings).
If I try to restore a nandroid, at the very end it spits out "Error while restoring /data!". I've done this with a couple nandroids that I've used fine in the past. Fully wiping from CWM and installing a fresh rom yields similar results.
Basically my thinking at this point is to back up anything I want while I have access to the phone and try to do as full a factory reset as possible. Any ideas? Of note is that I've run the "fix permissions" function both in CWM and ROM Manager, and when I run it in ROM Manager the log shows permissions for a bunch of programs that have been wiped. So I'm guessing that permissions settings persist across wipes, but I don't know what to address that with specifically.
Bump? (rewrote OP to make it less of a train wreck of my late-night detective work)
Edit with maybe-progress: I found and installed an older apk for Permissions Denied and even though this is an older nandroid and everything has been wiped time and again, the permissions for the games I changed are still disabled.
Having trouble getting the program to actually undo anything though, and rebooting the phone is a rather tiresome task with all this going on just to find out nothing changed.
Does anyone know
1)Where permissions live, and if I can reflash whatever that is, as it is clearly corrupt here.
2)Where I can get a copy of the v2.9 apk for this app, as maybe it will be better at restoring what it did than the older version I dug up.
Edit2:I eventually just did a factory reset and it fixed everything. I had also emailed the developer of the app and he got back to me with the following advice:
It sounds like the permissions file is locked, packages.xml. Try opening my app, going into the settings, and make sure that the first option is NOT checked.
Then hit the unlock option to unlock the file.
If that doesn't work, try the following in a terminal...
su
chattr -ia /data/system/packages.xml\

Intuitively this sounds like it may have fixed the problem, so I'm posting it here in case anyone ends up with similar problems and finds this thread searching.

[Q] Deauthorizing rooted AFTV = bricked?

A couple hours ago, the AFTV wouldn't play any Prime video and would just hang on the Netflix screen with the loading icon. Fairly certain it was on 51.1.1.0_user_511070220. Definitely 51.1.1.0. This was rooted with updates turned off using the adbFire app and a few Amazon URLs blocked in my router's access restrictions. After rebooting the AFTV a couple times, I read that a lot of solutions online were to delete the Prime/Netflix apps' data/cache. That didn't fix it. So then I followed the next common step and deauthorized the account. This is where the AFTV starting going crazy. After putting the user/pass back in, it started very quickly flashing between the "Authorizing Your Device" screen and the "Could not connect screen." A lot of button mashing broke the loop but every time I entered the user/pass, the loop would begin again. Hard and soft rebooting had no effect. Turning off the router (running AdvancedTomato) access restriction didn't help. I even used adbFire to very temporarily re-enable updates. Still no access.
I figured that this was a sign I should protect my root better. It may have been a mistake, but I decided to try and install Clockwork recovery. I left the "pm disable com.amazon.dcp" from adbFire enabled. So Amazon updates were still blocked. I downgraded to 51.1.0.2_user_510058520 kinda not realizing that this would kill my root and maybe also not realizing that Clockwork would need root to install.
I now have the same exact problem as before. I am stuck on the registration page and cannot sign in. It either says that the "sign in failed" or that the "connection was lost." At least on this earlier firmware, it doesn't seem to get stuck on the flashing loop between those two screens. There is some new weirdness where it seems to be pressing buttons on its own somehow. The text entry menu will disappear as if I closed it. And then when I select it again, it's in a broken format with all the keyboard buttons there, but the input field names missing.
I have verified that the current firmware is 51.1.0.2_user_510058520 with "grep fingerprint /system/build.prop".
I am 99% sure that nothing else from amazon is blocked besides "pm disable com.amazon.dcp", which I'm now unable to turn on again as I don't have root. adbFire says that "Amazon updates are off". I thought that this was reset by a downgrade? I can't think of anything else to check. I used to use dnsmasq to block three Amazon URLs before I found AdvancedTomato's Access Restriction but dnsmasq is empty and the rule in Access Restriction is deleted.
I am 99% sure I never edited my AFTV's hosts file. I just did "adb pull /system/etc/hosts" and all it has in it is "127.0.0.1 localhost".
Is there anything else I should check?
Just tried it again this morning. After every "sign in failed," if I let it sit on the failed screen with the keyboard where it wants me to enter user/pass again and touch nothing for 5-10 seconds, it will suddenly close that keyboard pop up and then immediately reopen it -- except it will be broken in that it's missing all the labels for fields like "Enter email here".
?
If you have Amazon.dcp disabled then remove all the blocked sites from the router and boot it up and see if you get connected. Maybe a site you have blocked is the issue

I don't know where the router block could be. The rule in Access Restrictions is deleted and the Dnsmasq field is empty. I'm going to try using a cell phone hot spot to register it. Probably won't change anything but I can at least rule out the router as a problem.

Question How can i get Apps microSD access [SOLVED]

I'm currently with an A52S 5G, coming from several Xiaomi phones (mix 2s, mix 3 and poco F3).
I use Hiby music player and when I try to delete song through the app, the app request permission to the storage/SDcard, but when i press the button, nothing happens. In the xiaomis it opened the file explorer and i could grant access.
I contacted Hiby and was told that was a samsung permission issue.
How can i fix this? Any ideas? Anyone has sucessfully done it? Are there any work arounds?
While this function is not crucial for me (i can still acess the storage with my files and with total commander) it was quite useful to physically delete the songs that i dont like, dont hear anymore or are just duplicated.

I can't guaranty this will work for sure but maybe you could try to go to your phone Settings - About of Phone - Software information - Version number. Type seven time on Version number and the Developer mode will be available. Get back and below the About your phone you should find a new option tab "Development options".
In this tab you should find "Force applications authorization on external storage".

Thanks, it did the work. Weird thing is that even disabling that option in developer mode, it still works . Keeping the "Give every app SD access" enabled, sounded a little risky.
Another thing, is that with the option disabled, i can't chose the SD root itself, but i have to chose a folder. While it's ok for my case, it could be an issue for someone else.
PS: Developer mode was on "kernel version" (if anyone else need it, i know you can google it up but i ended up with trial and error).
