ShootMe can't get past SU request - Fresh 2.0d

I'm running Fresh 2.0d, and this is the first time I'm trying to use ShootMe on it. When I launch it, it goes to the SU request page, but it's completely black and blank. Then it says that the SU permissions app is hanging and asks me to force close.
I tried:
-uninstalling shootme, reinstalling
-clearing cache on SU permissions app (can't uninstall, I think it's in the ROM)
-rebooting
Still not working.
Now when I launch it, it just hangs at 'trying to start server', then it says "Sorry! ShootMe is not responding" and asks me to force close.
Help please.

Try going into Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging (Make sure USB Debugging is checked) then try again ;D

Thanks for the idea, but same results.

RESOLVED.
I just went into advanced task manager, killed SU permissions app, killed shootme, then launched ShootMe again. Success. It properly went through SU permission again. I clicked on 'always allow'.
Weird - seems like SU permissions had to be killed first.

[Q] SU permission

I have rooted my phone with Suoer1click and have the SU icon. Then I installed the Barnicle Wi/Fi thether program. I ran the Barnicle program and it stops saying it does not have SU permission. How do i go about granting it permission? I thought the SU would do this automatically.

Normally SU should ask you automatically if you want to give the app the permission...have you already tried it after restarting your phone?

I get this every once in a while. I have seen it being a simple communication thing, where a reboot clears it. But I have also had app's be bad from the market and not communicate. I fixed it by getting the app on applanet, it was probably in an update that broke it. Also go into SU and check all the settings to make sure it allows stuff and give notification.

Can Anybody help ?

[Q] Super user not asking for permissions

Hey, so just rooted lg axis using the zip file found In another forum. Downloaded adfree or adblocker watever the name, and it didnt ask for permissioN nor did it sjow up on the app list in the superuser app. Tried other root apps and none asked for permission. Please help!

have you tried going into settings and clearing data for superuser

I had this same issue, and wanted to come back and post the solution that worked for me, as I could not find the answer with google-fu.
In Super user app, goto preferences, tap the "SU Binary tap to update " button. When you do, it will ask for su rights, allow, then do it again, as it will fail the first time.
I then rebooted.
Now when you run other apps (I tried adfree) that need SU superuser app will track them.
I also enabled Use advanced prompt and outdated notification.

Cannot grant applications Superuser access

I'm using the SuperSU app on my S3 running KitKat (slimkat 7). I have recently been unable to grant any new apps superuser access. The dialog appears on my screen that "Application X is requesting superuser access" and it has the usual two buttons "Grant" and "Deny" but I cannot press anything. The screen is just unresponsive. So every time I end up having to wait for the timer to count down to 0 and it will automatically deny the request.
Any ideas? Is there a better SuperUser app to be using? I was always under the impression that SuperSU was the definitive app. I remember in the past I had been using another SU app and I had to switch over to SuperSU in order for something to work correctly.
Any help is appreciated!!

I ended up switching to the Superuse app by ChainsDD. It's been working good so far!

I've found with some versions of Kitkat you have to flash the zip file for supersu in recovery to get it working. Personally I use supersu and haven't run into many problems at all

App does not install another app

I have installed a downloaded apk from the file manager (by enabling it from the "install unknown apps" menu). The problem is that I want to use this app that I've installed in order to install another app, but it's impossible. The installed app does not appear in the "install unknown apps" menu so I can enable it, and in its properties and permissions it only shows that it can access and modify files. It also does not pop an error message, it just doesn't do anything when i press the install button. The apk itself is not corrupted since it works perfectly on another phone and a tablet (i've also tried re-downloading and reinstalling it a couple of times), I've restarted the phone, I've hard-reset the phone... still nothing. My phone is not rooted (but then again so are the other two devices on which it works perfectly), and there is no antivirus installed. Even the device's security option from the maintainance menu is disabled. Any ideas?

Yes, each app has to be enabled to be able to install other apps. I.e. if you download APK from browser, and try to install it from file manager (i.e. ES explorer or such) it will tell you ES has no permission to install other apps... you have to enable it for each app that is going to install APKs.

Exactly. In order to install the apk I give the necessary permissions to the file manager and it successfully install the app (let's call it app1). But then I need app1 to install another app (let's call it app2) which does not happen in my s8+ (but there is no problem with my other devices which are also not rooted). The problem is that in my other devices app1 appears in the "install unknown sources" menu so it can install app2. On the s8+ app1 does not appear on this menu so there is no way I can give it permission to install app2.

I am not sure, but I vaguely remember that it asked me... I tried installing, and it popped up notification that I need to set permission so I just did... I am not sure where in settings that is
