I lost root- perhaps thru flashing new recovery?

I rooted my Zoom wifi long ago. Flashed all the various Tiamat kernels and followed bigrushdog's 3.1 update with no problems. I recently flashed the CWR RC 4 over the updated 4.0.1 version in Rom Manager. I now see that all my apps requiring root don't work. I have Super user app but don't get the request to grant su anymore. I tried upgrading Super user within the app but it fails and writes a zip update to SD card which is supposed to be flashed through Recovery but doesn't (I suspect because the file is a 0 byte file!).
Any suggestions on how to get root back?
[Solved]: Seems it was a result of trying to upgrade Superuser that I lost root. See the last post below and the solution Almighty1 offers. It worked and I have root back......

There is a problem with the latest recovery version in Rom Manager. The recovery from solarnz is probably not at fault, but maybe the interaction of the two. You wil lneed someone with more knowledge than me to help you get root back, but this issue really needs attention. There are several updates to apps that seem to be breaking our Xooms, and there should be pinned warnings or the developers should be making everyone aware of these conflicts as soon as they find out. I had problems and I'm sure a lot of other folks have have problems with these incompatible app updates as well.

Thanks for that. It almost seems like Superuser is "degrading" in the sense that I had a number of apps reflected in the Superuser app as having been granted root (but not Rom Manager). However, I couldn't add new apps to it. And when I cleared Superuser data and reinstalled it, none of the apps that required root (and which had worked before) would work.
I also think that the writing of a 0 byte zip update file by the Superuser app indicates a problem.
I suspect the solution may lie with fastboot and re-pushing Superuser and CHMOD(?) file permissions but like you, I am nervous to play with these sort of things. My Xoom is working and until I have the need to change the ROM, root doesn't matter to me....

after reading this I checked and also had lost root. I had not checked after after flashing 4.0 in rom manger. Superuser was still there but my apps did not have access. I tried flash a new recovery, reflashing Tiamat nether worked. Anyway from adb
adb remount
adb push su /system/bin/
adb shell
chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
exit
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
I then rebooted and had root... updated Superuser as I had an older one in my platform-tools and all is well I then flashed the lastest recovery in rom manger and still have root.
Hope this helps

Thanks. I will give it a try this evening when I get back from work.
Also found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14643716&postcount=340 which seems similar to your solution.

This is why I hate CWR. I wish we had Amon RA recovery.

[Q] BusyBox Updater Breaks Root Access

There have been a couple similar posts, but none seem to provide any help, so I apologize for creating a new one if the answer is already out there.
With that said, I recently purchased a new LG Nitro HD and promptly used SuperOneClick to root it. Everything seemed to work fine (on the first try); I rebooted the phone, SU was there, all seemed well. The first thing I tried to use the root access for was to change the LCD Density, and that didn't work - so I tried to update the BusyBox on my phone, using "BusyBox Installer". After I did that, my root access seemed to "break", by which I mean superuser is still installed, and SuperOneClick reports my phone as rooted, but SuperUser cannot authorize apps (or doesn't even try) and attempting to run an app that requires root access simply fails, suggesting that my phone is not rooted. Typically, I would ODIN the SOB and be done with it, but I cannot find any PIT files for the Nitro HD (and I am assuming that would be necessary for me to do anything with ODIN). I've also tried using SuperOneClick to unroot and reroot the device, but now it hangs on step 7 every single time.
Does anyone out there have any suggestions at all?

I believe I fixed this issue. "Super Manager" appears to use its own busybox, which is enough to open the system directory in r/w mode and delete the busybox directory from system/xbin. This seems to have restored root access, though a lot of apps are still not working for me. Still, apps are prompting for su access and are showing up in su's list of approved apps - which is more than I could get before.

Please advise - I am seeing this as well

The new MeanROM ICS uses the new SuperUser - however, it breaks root access as you mention. Please advise the corrective action. Send PM if ncessary

[Q] Root not working as expected.

I got my HTC One X about a week ago now for AT&T. Almost immediately, I tried rooting but ran into an odd issue.
Before rooting I had installed Apex launcher. There is an option in the settings to enable Root Helper, which previously would give an error message of something like, "This device does not have root access"
I went through the rooting procedure as detailed here on my mac. The script didn't work at first until I realized I had to switch it to Unix from DOS (Didn't look at the script before running) after I fixed it, it ran and rebooted twice and everything looked normal. Now I tried using the apex root abilities and it just froze and crashed.
So I booted up windows and tried using that to root, but the exact same thing happened. It seems to recognize my root, but not actually give any permissions.
I've tried using other root apps such as uninstallers,titanium backup, etc and all of them just freeze when trying to get elevated permissions.
Is there something wrong with my phone or the way I did the root?

Have you tried clicking on the su app? I had to upgrade mine.

Yea load up the Su app and ugrade binaries. That should fix the issue. Ive had issues like this on other phones.

You could also try running paulobrien's root method. That's what I used, and my phone's good.

I've also had a situation where the Busybox version installed on a custom ROM on my HTC Flyer tablet interfered with some apps (like Titanium). Make sure Busybox is up to date. I even had to install a different Busybox installer in order to get it to work right on my Flyer in that particular instance. I had to use the JRUMMY16 version in the market, and not the Stericson installer (which seem the most popular).

No packages were installed with the root.
I'll try using paulobrien's method later and hopefully that will work.

Help with wiping and/or reinstalling busybox

Hey guys and gals,
I've got a 7.7 on stock ROM rooted using the original root method the day I purchased the tablet. I've been using my tablet happily for over a month now.
Unfortunately, late last night I opened up Google Play and started updating all my apps, including Busybox by stericson. There was a new busybox version out (1.20.1) and I decided to install it using "Smart install." I'm not sure if it tried to install to /system/bin or /system/xbin but after the install I saw the app give me an error message explaining that the install was unsuccessful. Anyways, now a lot of my root-requiring apps including Titanium Backup Pro is not functioning at all. It seems that my BusyBox installation is corrupt.
I tried using BusyBox Pro by stericson to uninstall but the corrupt busybox seems to have prevented a proper uninstall, so it still lingers. I downloaded JadeEyedWolf's root.zip from his pinned "Root" post which includes SU & BusyBox thinking that installing the root.zip from CWM Recovery would over-write the corrupt busybox. After flashing I rebooted the tablet and I still got the same corrupt busybox issues.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Edit: The corrupt busybox causes the Wifi to show Error when I try to turn on the radio. Not that internet is vital in repairing the tablet, but I've worked around it by tethering Bluetooth internet off of my OG HTC Evo 4G. It's strange though - I can peruse websites and view the items in the Google Play Store but it will never actually download, though the "Downloading --- " bar does display.

I had the same problem, stock rom as well. If you check the reviews for Stericson's Busybox on Google Play, the two top ones a few minutes ago both mentioned the same issue.
Trying to root again and reinstalling Superuser didn't help, neither did a factory reset (manually salvaging settings and data was a pain too).
Re-flashing the original rom fixed it, following the guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1469635
I switched to JRummy16 Busybox installer and it seems to work.
Surprising that no one else here mentioned the problem ...

Try this fix.

To be more specific: BusyBox installer 8.0 replaces /system/bin/sh and /system/bin/ash binaries. I don't have any idea why would it do that (considering that I specified /system/xbin as an install folder), but this quick fix restores original ash binary (and sh as a symlink to it).
Installer 8.1 and above has this bug fixed.

Had the same problem with busybox and had to re-install the rom. What does this fix do?

Thank you so much it works well now! You're a life-saver ginkage. Should I keep the stericson busybox 1.20.1 original install or should I use the busybox installer to install a fresh copy of 1.20.1 in /system/xbin?
Thanks again!

Personally I always use /system/xbin, so that some custom kernel (like CWM) could use /system/bin if it wanted to.
BTW, the BusyBox installer bug was fixed in version 8.1, and current version is 8.2, so you should update it anyway. I was wrong to mention "1.20.1" version. Post edited.

Hi guys,
First of all, I want to apologize sincerely for the bug that my application introduced in 8.0. I didn't catch the bug because my device wasn't affected by the bug.. (I always test my app myself before releasing..yet I still miss things due to devices file structure being so different.)
At any rate, the bug was that the application symlinked all applets to Busybox. Normally, this is done if you use smart install and change the settings manually. By default smart install will not overwrite applets that are not already symlinked to Busybox.
This was not a problem with Busybox 1.20.1 but was a problem with my application and how it performed the install.
Again, I am very very sorry that this has occured, as a result I am scouring the web trying to find people with the issue and help them resolve it.
If you have this problem, it can easily be fixed by reflashing your current rom. you do not have to wipe or clear any data. Once this is done, you can download my installer, version 8.1 or greater and upgrade busybox as normal.
Please let me know if you guys have any questions.
Best Regards,
Stephen - Stericson

I too had the same situation, updated busybox then noticed something was awry when hidebar wouldn't work. My issues go way beyond broken root and WIFI, I've also been getting constant reboots. I was just about to re-install the stock rom until I read about the possible udate.zip fix. I'm very interested in how to apply the zip (I don't have CWM) being that i do extensive customization (with no backup, I know, I know) and I'd hate to re customize everything again. If I can get things right the first thing I'll do is install CWM and perform a nandroid backup.

you don't need CWM, just copy the fix onto external storage card,enter recovery (PWR + Vol. up Buttons) and apply the update from there. just fixed my tablet this way

Thanks for posting this, I'm in love with my 7.7 once again.

Appreciate the response stericson. I had purchased your Pro version but even after I fixed the uninstall failed and it also did not detect superuser permissions even though SU gave a notification that Busybox Pro was granted superuser. All other root-requiring apps work. Had to refund the Pro purchase though

No problem. there seems to be an issue with the application detecting root sometimes, that's why you can still try the install.
I'm looking into this issue, it just started showing up so I am not sure what is going on.

Really appreciate this fix. On the verge of wiping out everything....
But decide to see if its busy box since its the last thing i install before all this happens....
Just to note that uninstall busybox also doesnt solve the issue...
so need to fix.

I had a lot of problems with root permissions not being granted by Superuser app. Recently I have tried SuperSu from the market and uninstalled original Superuser app (important to follow the instructions for the App! ).
My main problem was that ntfssd was not granted root permissions at startup, so I had to start it again manually. With SuperSu it is no problem. Also I use Busybox and successfully updated to the latest binary recently.

Thank you so much for that, I had been driven crazy and had also gone through a factory reset to try and get my device back working, to no avail. Can I ask where you got the ash you're including here? It worked for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus, on 3.2, but is it a generic enough file that it can be dropped on nearly all Android devices without any issues arising?
I only ask out of curiosity and understanding the system more.

Hi! I bought the Hanspree 13.3 and noted that when I bought it one of the reviews said that it came rooted from the factory. Sure enough, I downloaded Root Checker and it says that I have Root. Unfortunately when I went to install Superuser Pro it installed but then says I need to update the binary (and I've done this multiple times on my Android phones or other tablets, it's a hobby what can I say?) it fails to update. I tried getting the binary direct from Sterickson and installing it through Recovery but that failed too. Busybox won't install because it says SU is screwed-up or I don't have root..
I was just hoping to find some ROM that could take advantage of this large screen, out of the box it boots and looks like a tablet for the sight-impaired (no offense) because all it does is display these huge icons and huge text (even after reducing text size to small). From all that I have seen today it looks like nobody is developing for this device. I guess we should be happy that we got 4.2.2 out of the box, at least we're ahead of most others..
Anyone have any ideas???

Ok. I have had the same experience and I found out the "solution" I believe. Did you try superSU? Because I tried to install superuser and it failed also but supersu did not. Try that and let me know.

Mine doesn't seem to be rooted. Any fail safe way to check if it is rooted or not? Want to speed this thing up and get the programs off of the RAM. I end up with only 300-400 mb available.

It has a version of SU in xbin, but that doesn't mean that it is rooted really....
I have tried to get ADB to work, but so far no luck with that. I believe that I could get root to work if I could get ADB to work, but that is just a circular argument.
As to the screen, I use an alternate launcher. Apex in my case. It allows me to set the grid size and scales the icons to fit. Others like other launchers better, but I prefer Apex and purchased the pro version.
All around I like it, even without root. Still, I would like to be able to use GL to SD, Titanium Backup, and the host of other root reliant apps I normally install to get around certain deficiencies.

I'm also trying to root this device.
After a lot of digging, it looks like the su in xbin has different permissions (at least as far as I can tell), when comparing it to the su in my rooted s3. I used root checker pro. The permission of su on my s3 is -rwsr-sr-x root root 113036, while the permission for su on my SN14T71 is -rwsr-sr-x root root 67080.
The funny thing is root checker pro says that root ownership is present and is properly configured. The only thing I can think of is the permission isn't set right.
Now without adb (which I can't seem to get to work either, even though there is a debugging option in the android settings), I don't see a way to change the permissions. Anyone have any ideas?

My usb file transfer doesn't even work on this device. When I try to use usb to transfer files it remounts the internal memory and crashes the tablet, and I have to shut down and reboot to fix it.
I think that they messed up remote usb access period, and that might be why adb doesn't work.

I can use usb file transfer just fine. It only works through the OTG port, not the "regular" port, or whatever you want to call it. In fact, I have no idea what the regular port is even there for, if file transfer only works through OTG. My computer (running ubuntu 12.04) doesn't even detect the tablet using lsusb when connected to the non-OTG (regular) port.
And yet, ADB doesn't work with either port. They definitely did something wrong here, I just can't figure out what.

I can only transfer files via the OTG port and a flash drive. Connecting to a computer, and I have tried windows 7/8/8.1, only causes it to crash. We may only be able to hope that it is fixed in the next update...

Both external usb storage (OTG) and my computer work fine using the OTG port. Still can't figure out what the other port even does right now.
Are they still going to release updates? Hannspree's "news" section hasn't even been updated since 2012.

Ha. Your guess is as good as mine...
It is still my favorite tablet though. The Price/Performance ratio is good, and I love the huge screen even if I have to use the upside down tablet trick for better viewing angles. Mine does have the overheating bug though, which is primarily what causes crashes and wifi failure...

Rooting Hanspree SN14T71
I hope this helps.
I am usually a lurker and don't post but I wanted to pass this info along.
I was able to root my Hanspree SN14T71 by installing Mobogenie.
Install the Mobogenie PC App from mobogenie.com/en-us/download.html
then download the ADB drivers from here mobogenie.com/drivers-download.html
Put tablet into debugging mode.
Connect to pc then run the Mobogenie PC app click on the My Phone Icon in the upper left and from there you should be able to click the OneClick Root icon and root your SN14T71.
I have verified root access and have installed and run apps that require the tablet to be rooted.
Try at your own risk but this did work for me.
Good luck.

I've only had it for a few days actually, so I really haven't had enough time to figure out what all of it's quirks are. I actually got it to hang up on my fridge for the calender, shopping list, recipes, pandora, etc. It's attached using velcro so I can take it off if I need to.
Well I guess I'll work on getting it rooted occasionally when I feel like it, unless someone cracks it before me.
EDIT: I'll try that out wcbellaz. I'll report back if it works.

So I tried the one click root with mobogenie, and while it definitely did something, it didn't give me root access. Using the one click root, it actually moved the su from /system/xbin to /system/bin, but still doesn't give me permission to use su. Setuid attribute is there, and the root ownership is there, so theoretically, I should be able to use su. Then again, I should have been able to with the original su file, which also has setuid and root ownership.
One thing that is strange when comparing it to my rooted galaxy s3 is under the "root user is and group id status" in root checker pro, the contents are different. On the hannspad, it says the su binary isn't found or isn't operating properly. On my GS3, it says the uid and gid are both root.
When I unroot it with the one click root, it removes the su file entirely.
So I know this mobogenie app can in fact get root privileges, as it did mess with the su file. I just wish I knew how it was doing it so I can do it myself.

That is really odd. I just got my Hannspad in the last 3 weeks. When I would run Root Checker it said the device was not rooted. I have heard some say that the device would report as rooted but in fact was not.
If there is anything I can do to help let me know.
I am pretty much a novice at this but I had to root my Hannspad because I did have enough space in memory left for apps, and needed to install Link2SD. In my opinion the only major drawback to this device is the 1GB memory. But for the $226 that this tablet was offered on Amazon was too good a deal to pass up.

Tried Mobogenie, and it seemed to install the correct driver and the driver pack was not needed - I had already started the install on the drivers though...
Sigh...
Got root, it uses a root app that I have never heard of - Kinguser - so I mistakenly installed SuperSU, which then asked me to update the superuser binary...
I am now in the process of restarting to find out if I messed up my root access.
Sigh...
Update:
Apparently I didn't lose root, so I have installed some of my root requiring favorites to see how they work.
The oneclick seems to update the su in xbin, and they put a link to it in bin with full permissions.
I have tried three apps that successfully report gaining su permissions, Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, and GL to SD.
I want to try the move updates to system option in TB, to free up some space, but I am currently too chicken.
Sigh...
Whelp, Titanium Backup works anyway...
Update 2:
I installed SuperSU ( re-installed it actually ) and did the normal binary update. Then I uninstalled Kinguser manually by using Root Explorer to delete its apk in SYSTEM ( superuser ). Then I restarted and deleted all traces of Mobogenie and its daemon as they were slowing down my tablet, and the daemon died hard ( I can imagine that it was tied into all sorts of things ).
I have confirmed that I still have root access, and I just didn't like all that Mobogenie stuff on my tablet.
Happy now

Awesome.
You lost me on the binary stuff.
In your opinion should I uninstall the Kinguser as you did and install SuperSu. there seems to be no difference to me in performance after the Mobogenie root. I really don't want anything on this tablet other than the stuff I have to have.

The Kinguser seems to work fine, I just like using what I am used to and I couldn't find much info on Kinguser superuser app ( in english anyway ) so...
It does have a lot more configuration options than SuperSU, which could be a good thing. Your guess is as good as mine...

Hold the phone. Kinguser? I have never heard of this, nor has it been installed on my tablet by the one click root.
I did install SuperSU and tried updating the binary (without success) before trying mobogenie to see if I could get it to work. This wouldn't have screwed me over in any way, would it?
EDIT: Just to be sure, you both are running the latest OTA update, right?

Version 1.1.4 dated 11/23/2013
I used a laptop running windows 7, and installed Mobogenie ( I also, perhaps unnecessarily, installed the adb driver pack ). I then connected my tablet and Mobogenie reported a connection - it reported the available memory both internally and on the sd card and it could see my installed applications, after which I used the one click root. The Mobogenie app and daemon were installed along with an updated su and the Kinguser superuser app.
As far as I know trying to install SuperSU previously shouldn't have any effect on the process since I did that too.
