Today I used the unroot feature in SuperSU because I wanted to use Android pay on my phone. I only had Xposed with root cloak and a vibration tuner. I removed both of them before unrooting and removed Xposed and after I unrooted, my phone started randomly freezing so I factory reset it and got a bunch of apps on it and it froze again. Any ideas what the problem is or where I can go from here? Additional details my phone is unlocked and s-off
try with flashing a RUU

So here is my problem, from time to time the tablet just freezes, only the notification bar is responsive and as soon as I pull it down, It becomes too late and the only wawy I can use the tablet again is to force reboot by holding the power button.
My GT-N5110 being rooted and the Android version is 4.1.2 stock (^^).
If you know where the problem comes from feel free helping me getting ride of it
I've gotten this occasionally. I went through the device the other night and uninstalled a lot of stuff that was in the "maybe works/maybe not, I never use" category, and I've been getting much less of this behavior since.
After installing the multiwindow app (which I like) I found that the camera app would make my device lock up and require a reboot.
Turning off the multiwindow feature (not uninstalling the app) gave me the ability to use the camera again.
Sorry I can't remember what-all I uninstalled.
It happened to me when i rooted with superuser, i unrooted and then re-rooted using SuperSU (same root app, only chose supersu). Never happened to me since.
thank you all,
i'll try uninstalling and unrooting then rerooting it using superSu.
Just for the update : the manipulations above seem to have solved the issue. Thank you again for your help.
[Q] Root "disabled" itself!? (Rooted phone that is no longer allowing root access)
Anyone here with this phone (or any) - that is rooted - have it just seemingly act as if it is no longer rooted? or unjustly denying root access for no apparent reason....
Have been rooted since purchase and have never seen or had any issue with this..have flashed custom recovery and rom's hundreds of times...no problems...currently using Task's latest KK 4.4.4 rom and had no issues from beginning...
It comes with SuperUser...i do usually install SuperSU instead but hadn't tried yet...it was fine and apps that needed root appeared ok..even SuperUser has three or four listed apps in the "allow" section...but all of a sudden I can't seem to give root access to anything else now..
First noticed the other day when trying to sideload an apk..couldn't...tried to do it manually by just copying it to system/apps folder and that's when the first message came up saying "it appears your device may not be rooted"...quite odd I thought.. i then tried to install SuperSU and it when SuperUser popped up to give it allowable root access it would only timeout and say denied...i then tried a bunch of other apps that require root and they would all just get denied by SuperUser...
Anyone seen this before or know what causes this and/or how to fix?
THanks for any help or suggestions
ps.. i'm no noob and have been doing this a long time and have rooted/modded dozens of phones, hundreds of times...but this issue is a new one for me.. IF i have to completely wipe and even go back to stock image and then start over to re-root and re-mod... I will and can do so easily..but that would be last resort if necessary...thanks!
In SuperSU, try the clean-up for reinstallation option.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
when launching SuperSU it needs root access to begin with and SuperUser wont allow..this clean up for reinstall is still doable?
Get the recovery flashable SuperSU then. It'll get rid of the other one in the process. You can get it from my sig, but it'll need to be updated after.
Do I need to unfreeze my apps in Titanium Backup?
Is just as simple as unfreezing them, unrooting via SuperSU then taking the update?
I would highly recommend unfreezing your apps before taking the OTA, i believe the OTA doesn't install bloat back on, the OTA will do a factory reset on your G3 after it flashes and if you are missing certain apps you will run into problems, for example if you don't have App Updates installed before it resets itself you will be greeted with the setup screen on every boot (like when you first ever turned your phone on, but everytime) not having App Updates before a reset will also stop your notification bar from being able to pull down & no access to the background apps menu.
It's just best to restore all your apps before an OTA, then unroot, then try the OTA.
Once in awhile some people are still able to take an OTA while rooted somehow, but this is super rare.
You can try stealth mode in supersu enstead of removing root, i don't know if you can unroot using supersu though.
You might have to flash to stock firmware to remove root, in that case you could just flash directly to the same firmware that's being offered to you by the OTA.
I was having some problems with random lockups and reboots, so I returned to stock (4.1.1) via the method given in the sticky in this forum, but stopped short of unrooting. I ran a few apps that required root just fine. I got an OTA (4.1.2) later on and installed it. Now root apps don't work. At first, Titanium Backup used to complain about not being able to get root access, not it just sticks at "Asking for root rights." I uninstalled SuperSU and installed ChainsDD Superuser, no help. I reapplied CF-Auto-Root, no help. Any ideas?
I fixed it...using advice from another thread with somewhat different symptoms, I ran /system/apps/superuser.apk and it worked.
Bought a G4 6 months ago and week after getting was rebooting itself could not return to lg as i unlocked bootloader, i managed to install a custom rom and this allow me to use the phone, some reason just the stock rom would reboot, was working fine for few months then now two things
Go to settings, security and when put in pin to access these setting it goes back to home screen and says settings has stopped working!
also when i try to unistall a app it just reboots and the app is still there
--- I HAVE TRIED THE FOLLOWING
installing root apps to remove apps, still reboots and still there
flashing other roms
flashing the stock kdz - reboot bootlopps after a bit
then installing custom rom again, same thing cant unistall apps
deleted cache and dalvik
really love the phone would use for another year if it worked
