improper root of Note 2 N7100 (International GSM) - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear All, I am using the samsung note 2 GT-N7100 International Version.
Before Update
Baseband Version
N7100DXDLK5
Build Number
JZO54K.N7100XXDMB4
After Update
Baseband Version
N7100DXDLK5
Build Number
JZO54K.N7100XXDMC3
before update i was rooted without problems with busybox installed.
i rooted using ODIN and using this md5 file CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100.tar.md5
after i updated of course i lost my root and device status was changed to "normal"
however, when i tried to root the same way using the same file, i thought everything was fine. the device status is changed to modified.
also, titanium backup is still able to perform its weekly backup schedule.
however, when i use "checkroot" it says my device is not rooted. before update it will tell me it is rooted.
anyone can shed some light?

If other applications which needs root are working fine then 'checkroot' may seeking for busybox, which won't be available if you have rooted with cf auto root method. Titanium using its own busybox.

SuperSU is available in application drawer ?
If not download from market. Just to say, it seems you are using market version of busybox then sometime it mess up device. if you need busybox then flash using CWM.

Super su not installed. Should I install it? Or remove busybox first?

First install supersu from market, then it should work.
Report back if doesn't work.

Can't Mount R/W In System after Root

Hi guys, anyone have a trouble with executing su in adb or trying to mount rw in system with root explroer? It just refuses to even though root check says I'm rooted.
I need this to get a newer version of CWMR and such...
That's strange, I have zero problems getting root in an adb shell, and was able to remount /system as rw both on the device and via adb. Have you opened the Superuser app and checked to see if it needs updated?

Can't gain root access for some reason. Can you link me to a superuser zip you used?
What process did you use to get superuser? Mine is working fine.

Flashed the zip suggested in the thread rooting glide on 4.0.4 in development

That's weird. Maybe it was a bad su flash? I had a problem before where it said I was rooted but titanium backup said I wasn't.

Someone post the zip they used to get root please

From my post in the 4.0.4 leak thread:

Rooted here, was as simple as flashing a superuser zip from CWM. This is the zip I used, I downloaded several to find one that would work and I honestly don't recall where I snagged it from, so apologies to whoever I stole it from.
I'll be setting up my fstab to swap the internal and sd card now, and restoring everything I use from TB.

I didn't bother to use the latest version as I was just replacing it with the latest SuperSU once I had root, and it worked just fine.
It gives me status 0...how'd you get it to flash?
Edit ugh also without my SIM card in there's no power menu or lock screen l

Flashed without issues in CWMR 6.0.0.1, nothing special needed... *shrugs*
did you use the one i posted? if so it worked for me.. but im using CWMR 5.0.2.7

Problems updating SU binary to 3.1.1

While attempting to do a binary update in Superuser v3.1.3 I'm getting an install fail as seen in attached screenshot. I re-installed using the superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip from the XDA rooting guide by Teo32 but the update still fails in the app. I have even tried installing busy boxat recommended in other posts but it still will not update.
Is there a way to manually update the binary?
Thanks all.

I had this problem. If you did a nandroid backup restore, it may have been a bug. you may have to reflash a clean rom..

It was a clean ROM install too start with, unless there its a problem with the ROM itself (Koodo 4.0.4 v4).
Sent from my SGH-T989D
Never tried that rom. I had that problem while running Dark side and fixed it by relashing and/or relashing a super user.zip. what recovery are you on? my problem comes from cwm.

Caboose, I'm running CWM recovery 5.0.2.7, I don't know what relashing is (time for me to google I guess) but I reinstalled superuser via CWM.
Krzysiek, I tried what you suggested but no luck.

this should be in QA section i believe.
if you are on MDL firmware, motochopper will not work. please search the General section for "root May 7". the May 7 was the MDL ota update. thread is by mattlgroff.

alternatively, he tweaked the new kernel, as well. and there's Faux kernel in Original Android Dev section... quite a few options.

Rooted BUT apps detect that i am NOT.

Okay my problem is that some Apps detect that i am not rooted ( when i am actually ).
I used CF Auto Root -->> Installed TWRP with GooManager -- >> Flashed Infamous S4 -->> Customized my SGS4 with 3Minit & Nottach Xposed. If i wasnt rooted i wouldnt be able to even use TWRP/ 3Minit / Nottach right ?
BUT the problem is some apps detect that i am not rooted:
I was trying to get Adaway / AdFree to work but they both say im either not rooted or cant find su binary.

SuperSU doesn't even pop up when i try to use AdFree/AdAway ( also re-installed 5+ times ).
Even Root Checker Detects that my phone IS NOT rooted.
But i do have SuperSU Pro and my phone IS rooted ( Other Apps can access Root also)
So i dont understand why these apps are saying im not rooted when i am.
Anyone know how i can fix this ?
Update super user, perhaps?

Shouldnt it be updated . I got the latest infamous S4 rom and installed SuperSU pro a few hours ago.
Also, i just looked in the play store and there isnt any new updates for SuperSU.
Solution found. Xprivacy was blocking certain apps that looked suspicious . Didn't even give me a notification that it blocks those apps.
The su binary are not present flash differant su one the includes the binary files

[Q] Need help. Wifi won't even toggle on.

Asking for help on the forums is usually my last result, I can assure you. I've been at it all day now and I keep coming across the same answers and the same n/a issues.
I'm going to make this as easy as possible with the hope that some one out there will be able to help me. Because I hit my data limit and I can't even download a simple app from the Google Play Store.
My Problem: Wifi will not toggle on
My Phone (The current state of the status bar makes me cringe as well. I literally JUST got done with a factory reset)

A quick run through
1. The phone was running 4.3 when I bought it. (wifi worked)
2. I decided to root using CF-Auto Root (wifi worked)
3. I updated to 4.4.2 using the Samsung Kies (breaking my root of course)
4. I re-rooted with CF-Auto Root and flashed the latest TWRP
5. A few days later, I turned on WiFi for the first time and it instantly switched itself back off.
I'm positive I flashed all the correct stuff. I do my research before voiding my warrenty.
(for 4.4.2, I flashed the latest CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.tar.md5 with Odin v3.09. Afterwards, openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-jfltetmo.tar)
Solutions I've tried:
-Reboot
-Took out the battery
-a few other little modifications I did in root explorer
-Factory reset
If you've any questions about what I've done or any suggestions for things to try, please let me know. I would like to avoid flashing a custom ROM for the time being.
Thank you in advance for any help!
You need to flash a different kernel. Then edit your build.prop and change.....
ro.securestorage.support=true
To this...
ro.securestorage.support=false

Thanks for the quick reply! Any Kernel suggestions for a stock 4.4.2 rom?
Edit: Or if I flashed your ROM, what kernel would you suggest?
