OK, so I did something stupid.
I was running 4.1.2, Rooted with a Perseus Kernel until I got "ambitious" and downloaded 4.3.
Everything went really well and the device rebooted fine and is working really nice and fast.
But, of course, I lost root, and the binary counter indicated "1" which didn't worry me.
So anyway, a couple of hours I decided to try rooting again with the same process that I used before since I still have the Windows Partition on my Mac and that went well too. Took all of five minutes. Now, the Binary Counter reads '2'.
BUT comma... None of my rooted apps will work. I keep on getting the dialogue... "Sorry, I could not acquire root privileges. This application will *not* work! Please verify that your ROM is rooted, and try again.
This attempt was made using the "/system/xbin/su" command.
After downloading 4.3, I didn't enroll in "The School Of Hard KNOX" and didn't install it, or whatever it is that you have to do to activate it... the window came up, but I didn't go for it. I just bypassed it, and it's not running (At least it's not under the running apps column).
This might be connected, but I also got this message after rebooting earlier, having to do with Google Play Store.
"Samsung is continuously working to improve the security policy on your device. Make sure you update the Security Policy on yur device.
Make sure your device is protected by updating the Security Policy to the latest version from Samsung.
And then I got a message having to do with the "XPrivacy App".
I just uninstalled Titanium Backup and The Titanium Backup Pro key, and reinstalled from the Play store, but it still gives me the same no access message.
Custom Binary Download: Yes (2counts)
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Custom.
This just happened when I booted.
SuoerSU
"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."
Kinda stumped.
How to root Samsung galaxy Note-2 N7100 < Android 4.3 >
Hello bro ..

Hello people,
I've a GT-N7100 with these information;
Saudi Arabia 2012 October 4.1.1 N7100XXALJ3 N7100OJVALJ2
However, I've rooted it only for using DroidWall, later I saw Data usage section is already providing that support in really major terms. So, I have looked for unrooting the phone to be able to get future updates. Device status went off to Modified after Root.
Today I've just installed Triangle Away, I was looking the settings of it. Several times checked the box for that new function "allow tracking bla bla" and finally unchecked it. Then clicked "Reset counter" and phone booted. Then volume up -> rebooted.
Then I wanted to return it to factory settings, I did (through settings). When the phone booted up with a factory stuff, things were updating etc. etc.
I've noticed the Settings and Device Status now NORMAL.
Asked system to update, and it said I already have latest updates instead of Your device has been modified bla bla.
Just wanted to share with you, still I have SuperSU and I have no App installed yet to use root access. I don't know after granting any root access, the system will turn this flag to modified or whatever. It is now 28 mins uptime and still Normal.
Just FYI~
//edit: well it turned to modified after an hour. now flashing back to original stock rom. || please delete this thread..
OK, I know this has been asked and asked again, but I have been reading and digging and googling for several days now, and cannot find a solution.
I've got a JB S3 At&t, and wanted to root it, so after reading for a few weeks, I got the "Samsung_Galaxy_S3_ToolKit_v7.0", donated, and got 7.2 (newest version). I flashed with the toolkit to get an unsecured boot image, with SuperSU 1.04, busybox, and TWRP .
Root happened fine. The phone booted, and when I went to open SuperSU (the icon was in my apps), it asked to update the binaries. I said yes, it failed, and the app opened anyway to allow me to access the options. Triangle away worked fine.
The update binaries thing was bugging me, so I updated to SuperSU 1.10 via google store, and the same thing happened, but now I could not access the program after the binary update failed. It still works (triangle away asks and gets permission) but I could not access the program any longer. It just closes after it informs me that updating the binaries failed.
I have tried installing the program as an app, pushing an APK, and installing a zip from recovery. No matter what I do, it ends up the same.
I have also re-flashed the boot several times, and tried a different method using Odin directly and CF-Root. (seems to be the only way to uninstall it) I have tried numerous combinations, but to no avail. I feel like I have done everything I know how to do short of an unroot to stock and try again.
Any helpful suggestions are welcome.
I'd like to be able to use the program, but this is turning into an OCD nightmare. I'd post this in a development forum, but do not have enough posts yet.
Install "SuperUser" from the market. Manually delete SuperSU from /system/app. Reboot. Reinstall SuperSU from play store and binaries should install fine...

Thanks. I ended up doing it the hard way. (I swear I had auto email notification enabled here, or I would have seen your post and tried it)
Anyway, I cleared caches/userdata/wipe cache partition first, then flashed a stock unrooted 4.1.1 rom from here,
Then I used CF-autoroot, and low and behold, SU was showing up as an app. (it was not previously when I used CF-AR)
I let it update itself and bam, it works! Installed adbd insecure, and it works too. (it was not showing up as an app when I did it before either)
Next I added TWRP 2.4.3.0. and everything still works!
Either the stock AT&T rom on this unit had something interfereing with root, or the root image I used in the toolkit has an issue. I'm leaning towards a toolkit issue since when I used it and it installed TWRP 2.4.1.0, I could not get into recovery, just a black screen.
I lieu of this, I'm limiting my use of the toolkit.
Curiously, the toolkit also allows a sideload via TWRP/CWM, but does not provide a driver. Windows 7 cannot recognize the phone in recovery mode with a custom recovery installed, although it does when a stock recovery is. I have yet to find a driver.
Last night I tried to flash the Cyanogenmod Installer without success. I tried multiple times and each time I kept on getting this Security Information message on my phone: "An application attempted to access system on your device without authorization. This attempt has been blocked...."
I did delete the antivirus app on my phone and so I know that it isn't that. Could this possibly be Knox? We had been told that the CM team had a workaround for those I747 on Android 4.3, like mine.

If you're rooted, download SuperSU from the Play store (I rooted, but the version of SuperSU that was installed was an old version and needed to be updated by manually downloading from the store). When you run it, it will detect that Knox is running and offer to disable it for you.

I wasn't able to find any way to get around Knox without rooting, but I may not have looked hard enough.
If you're willing to root first, CF Auto Root was super easy to do:

Thanks for the reply. I have never rooted not flashed a rom and so I thought that the CM Installer would be an easy way to get started. However, basically like everyone else, they ran into issues with phones that had been upgraded to JB 4.3. They recently posted that they had found a way around it but I started to wonder if in fact they had when I got the message:
"An application attempted to access system on your device without authorization. This attempt has been blocked...."
I was trying to ascertain whether the message was due to Knox or another program?

That *is* a Knox message, for sure.
So it looks like the Cyanogenmod team were not able to circumvent Knox for their CM installer. It's probably just a matter of time. Here is the full Knox notification:
"An application attempted to access system on your device without authorization. This attempt has been blocked. Updating your security policy may solve this problem. Deleting applications obtained from unauthorized sources may improve security."
There are three options at the bottom of the screen: Cancel, Update, and View Apps.
Update: I was able two days ago to use the Cyanogenmod Installer and I am now running CM!! First time for me to ever root and flash a Rom (I was an iPhone guy).
The phone is faster and smoother. I never liked the Touchwiz lag and most of the Touchwiz features worked inconsistently. The only thing that I miss is the camera. I have not found any bugs yet and so am very happy thus far.
Hello everyone, please be patient with me as I am relatively new to modifying phones. However, I have spent a good portion of the past 1-2 weeks looking into this problem on XDA + google, and I am at the end of my rope.
Here is my problem (I'm sure you already know):
I have no current solution to installing a custom recovery on my phone. I really just want custom recovery to restore FULL backups via Nandroid or equivalent.
Here are my questions:
1) In download mode, Odin has no problem flashing an official image/firmware (tar.md5) to the phone. Is it possible to create my own image of my phone into one file and flash it via Odin to my phone when I would like to restore? I have a feeling that something in the phone checks the hash of the image (I'm sure that I'm not saying it right), and that, considering my image would be twice the size of the official, there would be no way to make my image pass using collisions or what not. However, this would probably be my first choice after safestrap (assuming that won't work), so let me know.
2) I have read that certain people with phones similar to mine (not my variant though) have successfully "swapped" the external and internal SD cards. If I remember correctly they just change a couple lines in void.fstab. If this could actually be done, I could easily restore a backup to the now external internal SD, then change the settings to reswap on reboot. I feel like this is too good to be true though, as I have not seen this as a solution to my specific problem online. Is this actually a suitable option?
3) Currently my phone model is not an officially recognized device which Safestrap will work on. However, I have read that it is possible to do on my model using the Safestrap version which corresponds to a close variant of my phone. Can this be done? Please let me know if you have any information on this.
4) I guess this would be the last resort. I'm pretty good at taking things apart, but even better I can put those things back together Is the internal "SD" really just an SD card deep inside the phone? Would it be possible to replace that card for the purpose of backing up?
Here are my phone specs:
-Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (SCH-I435)
-The carrier is Verizon Wireless
-Android Version 4.4.2 (kitkat)
-Baseband Version I435VRUBOC1
-Kernel Version 3.4.0 [email protected] #1 Fri May 23 2014
-Build Number KOT49H.I435VRUBOC1
-Hardware Version I435.05
-Configuration version B13.SAM.SCHI435.0
-Needless to say, phone is rooted and has busybox + etc correctly installed.
Any help will be greatly, GREATLY appreciated -- even if that help is telling me that it isn't possible. I can't seem to give up on this.
Thanks,
Kurt
Help
Does anyone have any advice on this? I would REALLY appreciate it. Thanks again.

I'm also interested on this. Thanks for your efforts
Nope no recovery because the Verizon minis bootloader is locked. It can be rooted with kingroot i think its called and then switched to SuperSU by replacing it.(I used super sume pro to get rid of kr) ****!!After root install a application like "disable application [root]" and disabe all Knox applications and any unused apps.(look for a list of recommended apps to disable)

How did you switch it over to SuperSU? I tried, but when it tried updating the root binaries it couldn't continue because of KNOX, so I was stuck with Kingoroot's.
I used this method to replace KINGROOT NewKingrootV4.50_C120_B220_xda_release_2015_07_22_105243 with supersu. most other versions i tried didnt want to cooperate and would make me lose root after one reboot. also i bought the pro version of supersume pro its 4$ off google play.

I tried it with the free version they linked to and it de-rooted it, so maybe I'll try later when I have enough Opinion Rewards credit to get the pro version. That or it doesn't work on this phone with Kingoroot. (The Google Play description says it should do Kingoroot though.)
Did you download the correct version? The one off the kingroot site doesn't work for me. It just deroots. I still have root on both of my s4mini Verizon phones. Try this link to get a working one.HERE scroll down a bit and the different versions are there. Try each one starting with 4.5. Also remember to restart after you root with kingroot and install super sume after the restart.
I just had to re-image my phone, so I did it according to your directions. (Though with the free version still of super sume) and it worked, although it won't update to the newest root binaries. It fails when I try. Did you have this issue? Other than that, SuperSU works.
I updated using "normal" and it worked fine for me. Glad su works at least. also for one phone I did a full unroot factory reset and then I reflashed a tar with Odin. Did the normal root with kingroot 4.5. Restarted tried a few root things like no frills cpu thing then installed super sume pro. Did stage 1. An 2 then supersu started up automatically it asks to update (I think net connection is needed) *do update "normal" because there isnt any recovery. Uninstalled kingroot like supersume says. Did a few root things then restarted. (Checked for superuser after reboot and it stayed)
Hey Good Morning folks.. I bought a new phone J6+ and I didn't care for warranty and I decided to void it and root my device. I updated my phone to the latest software from Samsung through Odin and everything went well. I downloaded Magisk Manager after that then pulled the boot image from the stock room I have using 7-zip and patched it then flashed it to my phone through Odin. As in such case it was supposed to work as it worked with all other Samsung devices I rooted.
After that I downloaded Solid Explorer and I tried to remove some apps from my /system/apps as a simple test to see if my root works. it was Youtube it wasn't a dangerous critical app. But then my phone hanged and restarted then I found Youtube is back.
I went to Magisk again and downloaded BusyBox from there and installed an app called "Uninstall System Apps" and I used it to remove Youtube also as a test it removed it and the restarted the phone flawlessly then I went to remove "Facebook" then restarted my phone then Gosh Youtube is back and also Facebook.
I found out if I try to modify anything in /system the phone will restart then undo what I've done.
what is the reason? is it Defex? is it RMM? is it Knox? is it DM-VERITY? I just wanna know what is wrong with it to see how I can fix it.
Edit:
Phone: SM-J610F/DS
Software Build: M1AJQ.J610FXXU1ASA3
Magisk version: 18.1
I keep reading other threads and posts. I can see there is a way using Ashyx Method https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ecovery-twrp-3-2-3-1-galaxy-j6-j610f-t3875150
I just wanna know why it fails if I install Magisk with "Patched Boot method" only.
