I rooted my galaxy s3 sgh-t999v using odin and cf-autoroot, accidentally rooted my phone again, that time it removed the root. When i tried again to rot it it didn't install instead it unmounted the root. Can someone please help me?

Hi, i asked this question in development by mistake and it got deleted so here goes. I rooted my E4GT and then installed CWM. Everything was fine until i went to install an app that required root. It said i didn't have root. I installed Root Check and it said i didn't have root. Can someone please tell me how my root has disappeared and how i can get it back. Thanks
Sorry if this is kind of a newb question
Install super user from the market
If you deleted it that could be the problem
If that doesnt work follow the steps to regularly root your phone

nvm i got it. I was curious and went back into root check and it said i had root. thanks for the help anyways
I would tell you to dig a little deeper into the dirt to see if it's still there, but I can see you found it.
Hello all,
This is the first time I have posted to this forum, but I have used it to learn a lot of things. I have rooted my Galaxy s3 without any problems at all. I received my new Galaxy S4 form T-Mobile today and I wanted to to move all data over to the S4 from S3 using Titanium. I used the motochopper root method multiple time but I continue to receive the sane error each time.
"the superuser binary (su) must be updated. Please choose an installation method.
When I choose install it fails as well.
PLEASE HELP ME
thanks in advance I appreciate it.
Robert
Flash a custom recovery with odin and then flash su.
I'll post more detailed instructions in a bit.

If you have updated, use that guide.

Same problem I had. This is the thread I started http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2288234
I got everything answered there.
Additionally, from within titanium backup, if you're putting your TB stuff from the GS3 on your GS4's external SD card you'll have to point TB to it.
I just recently rooted my device using Stump Root and I want to be able to install roms. I have no idea of how and if I should uninstall the root or even how I would go about getting a fresh install of the factory settings. I have no clue on how to install a rom and if I should but I do want to use different features on my phone and try different things until I have my phone working the way that I like and can enjoy my LG G3. I only installed Stump Root so I can install certain apps on my phone that required root access but I'm not sure if that's all I need to install roms. If anybody have any help as to what I should do, I would be greatly appreciative of any and all help.

First and foremost, this should be moved to the Q&A section, just an fyi and a moderator may move this. Secondly, the answers to all of your questions should also be found in the Q&A section. For instance, you need an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery to install roms(if there are any for your particular g3 - verizon, sprint, international, tmo, etc). Again depending on your model g3, how you get that recovery will be different(tmo comes unlocked, the others must use bump! to get TWRP). Please, kindly check out the Q&A section and do your homework, all your answers can/will be answered there.
If you want to feel a single bit sure about your phone hacking you should start with reading a few threads in Development forum and the others too. Look for Bump and how to restore your phone.
Read, read and read.
And a friendly note to you.. This thread is in the wrong section. Perhaps it should be in Q&A???
I rooted my T-Mo Galaxy S4 with Oden through my PC, downloaded the root checker app, and it says I'm rooted. If for any reasons I have doubts of it truely being rootes (as in I did everything correctly), can I reroot it with no problems, cautions, and/or unexpexted possible variables? Or should I unroot then root again? I appreciate anyone taking the time to read and answer my question. Thank you.

Don't become a victim of root - paranoia, just do all that "rooted " stuff like getting rid of your bloatware and installing custom roms and don't worry about re-rooting. Life is too short.

You can root as many times as you'd like. All rooting does is copy a file into a protected part of the ROM - usually SuperSU.
However, if Root Checker is saying you are rooted, you are.
You can also open SuperSU, and look at the settings and see what it says. Or, if you open an app that requests root access, you should get a notification, where you can give root to that app, or deny it. And, if you already have given it access, you will get a popup showing when SuperSU give the root access to that app. If you haven't already done so, the important root apps to get are file explorers. I like ESFileExplorer available in the Play Store. However, since you seem to be a newbie READ, READ, READ before you start deleting, changing anything with your phone.
