It appears that after using Root Tools program to move my cache files to the sdcard that I have lost root somehow.
S-OFF, I have SU App, etc. Root was working fine.
Now Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, Wireless Thether, etc will not get root access even with permissions granted and Root Explorer won't ask for root permissions.
Root Tools crashes when I try to move the cache data on the sdcard back to the default location.
What do I need to do?

i accidentally uninstalled the stock camera app on my samsung conquer 4g.i have a backup for it but i go to restore it, it just freezes in restoring app mode. i have no problems restoring most apps. can someone please help! and im not using any custom roms what so ever
conoirecti
I do not know
Try installing stock rom again.
u may need to flash your original rom or ask someone who was backup the shock camera.
Beside, u can try other 3rd camera apps
Use root explorer
Go to system directory
Mount partition as r/w
Paste the apk in system/apps
Reboot
I think this will help you. if it does please THANK me.

Well also don't forget to set full permissions.
Once when I copied the apk file it didn't work later when I set full permissions it worked.
I would use titanium backup to backup the apps you have, then do a factory reset if the AOL fix above doesn't worm.
mount your SD card from your PC transfer a copy of your Titanium Backup folder from SD card to PC the MAin folder and the contents will all be saved. Then reinsert SD in phone uninstall TitBa clearing the data first then uninstall. Then boot into ClockWorkMod then wipe all 3 cache's then do "Fix Permissions" then Reboot phone. Re-Install Titanium back up and transfer your app backups from your PC back into your newly created TB folder that your phone will make on the SD card when you install TB. Then go into Restore/Backup in TB and restore the App.
You need to allow to install apps from unknown sources!
hi, im having problems deleting a folder in my internal storage.
my phone is Lenovo A328, stock rom, rooted, and running on kitkat.
i didn't do any tweaking on my phone besides rooting.
i noticed while browsing my internal folders, in Android/data there is a folder named "com.com2us.soulcollector.normal...." 16.74mb in size.
it's from the game soul seeker, and i've already uninstalled the game, i tried to delete it but cant be deleted.
here's what ive done so far:
-i used other browsing apps like root explorer and root browser
-renamed the folder and delete, but can't
-moved the folder to other location in internal (cant move to external), still cant delete
-downloaded the game again and made sure the folder name and location is the same. then uninstalled the game, still the folder is there.
-edit the permission but cant.
-reboot device
-clean junk files using clean master
i dont want to restore or reformat my device. its a pain trying to download and reinstall again all my apps.
please help!

Try remounting /data as RW.
So, if you're using ES Explorer, open menu, inside Tools, click on Root Explorer.
Then click Mount R/W. And mount all partitions as RW.
This may help

tried it but still no good. im really not liking this kitkat.
Hello everyone I have been trying for some time now to get twrp (2.8.7.0) and cm (10.2.1) on my Samsung Verizon galaxy S3 about phone . I really don't want to brick my phone considering I'm trying to upgrade my computer and move at the same time so I have very limited cash. I am rooted via towelroot (confirmed via root checker basic) have SuperSU installed, twrp manager installed, Titanium backup installed, Explorer installed, and Busybox free installed. So I installed Titanium backup first to safely backup all of my data to my external sd card, and when I moved the backup destination folder to the external sd card and tried to backup all user apps titanium told me that there was insufficient space . Considering It has 15Gb free and there is altogether 14Gb on my internal I was curious. So upon further research I stumbled upon this and so when I tried to edit my platform.xml in my permissions folder it said it was set to read only. I noticed that my Explorer app isn't in the supersu list (could this be all it is, and if so how do I add it). So I proceeded to open up TWRP manager and it told me it can't write to sd card so it will reboot and patch the platform.xml file. I did that and it reboots and nothing has changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
UPDATE: after posting this I tried the twrp platform.xml patch again and when the phone rebooted I checked via Explorer and it had created a back up in the permissions folder named platform.xml.bak and had edited the the write permissions. but TiBU still does not work with same error.
See this post in the other thread in which you posted this kind of question:

I am able to see the /data folder by using ES FILE EXPLORER (root mode), but I am unable to see any of it's contents. I am willing to past some app folder data from a nandroid backup there.
Ok, found it, ES file explorer was without root.
Phone sm-g900t3 (S5)
Root supersu
On my phone, Root explorer has problems launching apps via touching the file when file is located on the external sd card. The launched app acts as though the file is nonexistant.
When the file is on internal storage, there are no problems.
It used to work ok though. I've tried erasing cached data and uninstalling and reinstalling.
Any suggestions?
I've figured this out. Root explorer has a tabbed feature. I had been opening root tabs instead of a local storage tab. Root tabs are not meant for normal usage ands cannot open apps by tapping their associated files.
