[Q] how do you Root 4.3 ? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I been searching all the places and i haven't found help...
im running liquidsmooth 2.37 with 4.3.1 and now the super user says
"There is no SU binary installed, and SUperSU cannot install it. This is a problem. If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root consult the relevant forums for your device!"
Any fix to this??
Thanks!

Best to ask.In q&a in that roms dedicated thread.

Do not do this. Seriously, anything but the toolkit.

In Settings > About Rom, click on Build Number 7 times. Back up to settings. Now you will see Developer options. Underneath it, there should be an option called ROOT ACCESS. Click on it and choose ADB and App. (or whatever words to that effect).
Note - all the apps who tried to obtain root access before this step will have to re-request including Superuser. So best reboot to clear the process instance.

[Q] Rooted Question / App Confusion

Please know in advance I've read top to bottom and through page after page of post and guide here and on other site before rooting, and I searched before posting this question...
-I rooted my Dinc using Unrevoked3, just this past Saturday.
-I successfully installed Titanium Backup and successfully have used it for back-up.
-I UNsuccessfully did an install of Root Explorer. They told me it sounds like I'm likely not rooted.
-I downloaded ConnectBot, typed Su in the cmd line and received a "Permission denied".
Unrevoked3 and the use of Titanium Backup tell me I am rooted. Root Explorer not getting permission and cmd command tell me I'm not.
Should I simply run the Unrevoked3 process again?
My end goal is to flash a custom rom ideally with better battery life, a better bluetooth (my stock set-up stinks on bt devices) and a different look like CM7.
Here is my software info it if matters:
Android Version 2.2
Baseband 2.15.00.07.28
Kernal Version 2.6.32.17-g9a2fc16
Software 3.26.605.1
I thought I read and re-read and search extensively, much appreciate any help!!

Sounds like you don't have superuser installed. If you do try uninstalling it and download it off the market.

Even if you have it installed, search Superuser in the Market, download/install. Then open the Superuser app itself, hit Menu - Preferences, then scroll down to Su binary vX.Y.Z (X Y Z will be numbers). Touch it and update the su binary, hopefully that'll let you as it'll ask you to "Allow" root access.
I did the update and it failed, twice I'll try the remove and reinstall method next. Thx for the advice.

So Superuser won't even allow for a removal. It was "remove updates", "clear data" or "force stop" only.

I actually remember running into this on my brothers phone a while back. I think I installed busy box off the market and it solved that problem. Not sure if that would work but worth a shot.

Very true, I had a similar issue once trying to uninstall apps, they'd always reappear after reboot. Needed busybox installed which fixed it.
EDIT: Instead of trying to unistall it, go to the Superuser site here, and there's a 3.0.6 flashable zip file that you can flash in ClockworkMod Recovery, maybe give that a try...? But install busybox too as mentioned above by jackbtha1.
Huge thanks for the advice. I installed Busybox and it fixed the problem immediately after I rebooted. I didn't know it was needed because Superuser, in the binary update logged that it had success with busybox, yet I'd never installed it. Alls well, thanks! Odd that Titanium was working on it's own without permissions.
NOW... if anyone wants to hold my hand through flashing a ROM on this thing. It seems many of the walk-thru guides are a year old or the updated process is scattered.
Before you install any roms make a stock backup so you have something to fall back on.

The reason TiB worked was it uses a modified busybox within the app itself, so that's why it worked okay.

Glad to hear everything worked out for you. Now as far as flashing a custom Rom do some research first and make sure you make a back up before flashing anything.

[Q] Rooting Galaxy Nexus on 4.3 Failed

Dear Gentlemen,
Good day.
I am running my Samsung Galaxy Nexus on stock rom.
after upgrading to 4.3, I have lost the root access.
so I have done what I used to do: root via the toolkit.
As a result, I did not get a root access even the SuperSU and Teamwin Recovery were installed successfully.
can you help me please?
Want help?
Lose the toolkit and figure out what it is you need to do to fix it. The answer has already been spelled out 100 thousand times over the last 2 weeks.

There is a sticky thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895. The part about rooting. And honestly, being new is no excuse. That's what all the resources here are for, and the forum can't be blamed if they're ignored.

Hi
Can you tell us how you gained root access? My device was rooted in 4.1.2 version and after installing 4.3, I started getting error "Unauthorized access to a secured area has been blocked. Tap to learn more." If I use SuperU (which was installed during 4.1.2), it asks me to manually re-root.
I tried going through steps mentioned in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991 but didnt work.
Can you give link to the software and mention the steps to remove Knox or regain root access?
Help would be appreciated.

I used method one from that thread. The CF auto root method. Just remember to update supersu afterwards. It'll ask you if you want to disable knox when you open it up after updating.

Perfect!! it worked for me in less than 13sec!!
At first, device took some time to recognise the network, so I was a bit afraid but after 2-3 mins, i could make calls.
I had to install SuperSU separately, and Just as Florad77 mentioned, it disabled KNOX.
Thanks a lot to both of you...

N1 CM Version - Root/O-Click issues

Hey there. Recently ordered myself an N1. Love it. got the CM Edition as I was going to use CM anyway, but a couple of issues have arisen.
Firstly, O-Click doesn't seem to work with CM, is that known and is there a fix?
And secondly, I have purchased a few root apps on the play store, but I can't seem to root the N1 with the APK Exploit that was posted here. Is there any known way to root the device?
Also, is it safe to flash CM11 on the CM recovery?
Cheers for any help!

Are you talking about PhilZ?
I haven't tried it, and I doubt that I will. I know that TWRP runs very well on just about everything that I've thrown at it with the N1 so far. If you try that recovery out, please post your findings in that thread so others know what to expect.

No, i don't mean PhilZ. I ordered the CM limited Edition version of the N1, which came with a CyanogenMod recovery rather than Oppo's recovery. (Use volume buttons to navigate) It's not a touch recovery. Which is the main reason I wish to install TWRP, but I understand you need to root for that?
As for the o-click, is there any fix? Yes CM may have fixed it but not on the OTA update :/
Edit: I accidentally selected 'Reboot into Bootloader' rather than the recovery, and now my device is stuck on the "###fastboot..." screen. (Replace ### with 3 Chinese letters that I don't know ) I have no idea what to do. No buttons seem to do anything. :/
Edit2: Fixed by holding VolUp + Power
You can fastboot flash twrp, then flash supersu.zip for root. If it still doesn't work you need to go into cm settings and turn off the cm root preference so it accepts the supersu app

I tried flashing supersu with the CM recovery but it failed to flash. It's it due to the recovery or something else? Also, is there a tutorial of how to flash with fast boot somewhere? Cheers for the help guys! Really appreciate it!
Edit: nevermind, used some common sense and the search feature Installed TWRP no problem

I was having the exact same problem. I used CF-Auto-Root with Odin on my new note 8 [GT-N5110] 4.4.2. Every time the tablet rebooted supersu would force close. I had no options to update or uninstall. I found a post on another web site that gave me the solution that solved my issue. Download the latest supersu-update file (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip) to your computer. Unzip, go to common folder and then copy the superuser.apk to your tablet and install. When completed my tablet was rooted and supersu was up and running. I hope this help you or any others not able to root using CF-Auto-Root after updating to KitKat.
I use latest PhilzTouch recovery.There is an option there under advance/philz settings i think and choose re-root. Hope it helps.
