Shell repeatedly requesting root, what does it mean? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

The shell is repeatedly requesting root, like every second. What does that mean and is it normal. The only root apps installed are adfree and titanium backup, and they both show up by name in the su app log.

You should be able to set SU to automatically respond and give root access. It is under settings, automatic response. You can also turn off the logging so it does not fill up with a whole bunch of accepts for the shell. I am not sure if this would cause security issues or not. As long as you do not run or do anything sketchy then you should be ok with auto allow.

There is the superSU flash able zip. That will fix the shell access issues. Its in the android development section. It works better than super user.

[Q] Titanium Backup not working

When I open the app I just get a black screen saying waiting for permission. I go into menu n hit refresh app list and then permission is granted but I'm still stuck at the black screen. Also I get a message saying "System requirements have not been met"....Any ideas on how to fix it pls???

Did this start happening after you updated it from the market? After I updated mine yesterday it went nuts. I used ROM manager to fix permissions then rebooted into RA 2.3 and chose fix uid mismatches or whatever it actually says in "other". Everything was fine after it booted back up.
Is this your first time running the app? If so, hit the "Problems?" button and install Busybox. It will work fine after you do that.
If you open up Superuser is it showing up in there?
This is the screen that i keep seeing, I cnt get nonthing else. This not my first time using TB. And it does show up in the superuser app..

And sometimes I get this

Temp unrooting does fix this but comes back after a while.. so what's wrong ?

That happened to me too. I think it was an app trying to upload a log. I could be wrong though. I just selected google drive always and it went away.

Reflash the su binaries for JB. They're laying around here somewhere.

10147 app in data usage

I was just checking out my data usage and there is a 10147 with almost 3 gigs and I can't find any info on it. There's no app settings button at the bottom, no corresponding app. I haven't rooted yet, but I'll try and search in the for system to see what I can find but does anyone have any idea what it is?

What do you do most on your tablet? surfing the web?
I find that as a wakelock on my phone all the time
Web/apps I am constantly trying out apps then uninstalling them also constantly on the web. And I don't ever let the screen lock so I don't know if it's preventing anything.

Looks like a PID, what does the output of:
Code:
ps |grep 10147
...yield in a terminal?

[Q] Root Issue?

I seem to be having some issues with root. I'm rooted and I've got SuperSU installed. I'm trying to install GSam Battery Monitor Root Companion, but it doesn't seem to be installing properly, and suggests manually copying and/or installing BusyBox. I tried installing BusyBox, but it either fails or resets the phone. And I've tried manually copying the file, but it either crashes or is removed (from /system/priv-app) after a restart. It seems these apps have been granted proper access, so any idea why it's failing?
flar2 created a kernel module for this reason. Check the original development subforum or install a custom ROM.

I'm also having trouble with the root companion. Installed correctly in system priv. Extended stats work for the radio, but the display draws a blank. Using ARHD

Deleting and reinstalling makes no difference.
I also noticed my awake screen times are now messed up in wake lock detector

Follow that guide, you have to convert the system to R/W because it's R/O by default.

As it turns out, the problem was a "secure" bootloader (?) due to having a stock rom. I used an app to induce root, but I'm still having problems push/pull.
Here's what it should look like:
