uninstall chinese root explorer in rooted android phone? - General Questions and Answers

I have a haipai noble i9220 and was able to root it. It now has super user app and chinese root explorer. I tried to update root explorer and paid for the app in Google Play but when i updated, it says the installed app is not signed and need to uninstall it first. But I can't uninstall it. How do I do it. Sorry, this is my first android device. Hope somebody can help me. Thanks in advance.

You can uninstall the chinese root explorer (or any system app) with tianium backup. Download it, go to apps, tap on the app and select uninstall.

Thank you so much. I was able to uninstall the chinese root explorer but when I installed the root explorer i paid for in Play Store, it won't install it, it says: Error - Incompatible update. Any thing I could do about this?

Not sure. Try this, though.
Go into settings, applications, manage applications, and see if there is something labeled com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer or something like that. (No icon) and report back.

Thanks for your quick reply. Earlier, when I was trying to install and got an error, I saw that com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer in the apps with the icon in dark color. But just now, I can't find it. So I tried to install again from Play Store and it worked. Thank you so much for your help and patience on newbies like me.

Error superuser

I have installed today new custom rom with sense 3.5
Superuser worked fine and also daemon controller.
Market auto updated superuser and then I got always error when I try to open daemon controller this error :
The application superuser (proces com.noshufou.android.su
I also uninstalled the update but still same error..
Yeah the new superuser have that problem, with FC. Try the version 3 or the version 3.0.2
1. Go to settings==>applications
2. Find superuser and tap "uninstall updates". You should be back on 3.0.2
3. Go into your market app and search for superuser. Open the app listing and uncheck "allow automatic updates".

Did you read it and just was not paying attention or did you just not read it? The OP said they had already don what you suggested.
Right now I am on the latest superuser..
When I open daemon controller works fine also overclocking working.
But when I want to give Es file explorer root acces..
I get again that error.. driving me crazy right now
looks like my phone is not rooted or what
Have you thought about seeing if you can update your Busy Box too? It is a shot in the dark but I know Superuser and Busy Box are closely tied together. Also have you tried to uninstall and then re install the app in question?

Hi,
May I suggest you try to restore to SU 3.0.2
Make a nandroid backup,and flash in recovery.
I installed busybox.. but when it ask for root acces
I click on Allow then the error from superuser comes again...
Do you have apk file for superuser 3.0.2 ??

In recovery get this error :
E: error /sdcard/su-3.0.2.zip
(status 0)
installation aborted
I had to go into the su app and delete app data, then totally uninstall it completely. Then install an earlier version. That is the only way it stopped force closing for me, uninstalling updates did not work. After you install earlier version go in and update binary, even if it's already up to date. If it updates it and you can press the back button and it does not Fc, then you should be fine .

Download Root Checker from the Android Market. Install it and open it then click on the check for root button. This will tell you if you are rooted.

Hi,
Worth a try.
Go to all apps>super user>preferences>automatic response>click allow and see if that helps.

Wow dude, calm down. Yes, I did read the op's post. I'm sorry if my missing that part has offended you.
To the OP, try manually deleting superuser and all related files through adb, the flash 3.0.2 from recovery.

People need to STOP suggesting this. This is way unsafe and defeats the purpose of the app even having an asking prompt in the first place. It might be a "temp" fix, but it shouldn't even be used!

This solution worked for me, no more FCs
h/t theraver and homersp
to solve the SU problems try this su binary
binary: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11494687/superuser/su
to install do this:
Update to superuser 3.0.5 in the market (if you didn't do this)
adb remount
adb push su /system/bin/
adb shell chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
adb shell rm /data/data/com.noshufou.android.su/databases/permissions.*
This sollution comes from the home site of superuser by ChainsDD, and was posted by HomerSp. credits to HomerSp!
Rom Manager, fix permission, problem sorted for me.

Spontaneous loss of root privileges on CM 7.1

So I'm running CM 7.1 stable with Matr1x 8.0 cfs and I went to turn on my tethering yesterday and I got a toast notification saying I was unable to start tethering due to an inability to gain root access. As of a few minutes ago, I am unable to gain root access with titanium backup, wireless tether, or the terminal emulator.
Has anyone ever seen something like this, or know what may be wrong?
Thanks in advance

I tried updating from within SU and the prompt showed up, I accepted, and I got a toast saying that Superuser had been granted SU permissions. Then the update failed from lack of root privileges. Titanium Backup and the terminal are still not able to gain access

root privilege without rooting?

so I got my tf300 updated to jellybean and installed nova because it was sluggish. so I wanted to put some widgets out to the desktop and I had no problem. went into settings and saw that the app has root permission. how is that possible?

Download root checker to see if you truly have root permissions. If you do, then it would seem you got a used, rooted device.

If you have installed Super Su or SuperUser, when you want to open an apk which is need root rights (as Titanium Backup for example), you will see a notification as Pop-Up.
If you have it, check it.
And you can used Root checker (via Play Store) for confirm your root
"Sorry! This device does not have proper roof access"
So what? How do I have root access on nova?
And the tablet was brand new everything had the plastic foil on and stuff

It's so simple.
You want root rights, but you are not root. YOU CAN'T
You are in JB bootloader apparently, if you want root rights, you must doing:
UNLOCK your device
FLASH a recovery
ROOT your device
and finally, you will have root rights for your app

evidently nova is lying about root...
This is an old option, on ICS 3-rd launcher don't have permissions to add a widget from the drawer, this is why he needs root, on JB this problem is fixed, so the launchers don't need root to add this widget, maybe the Nova developers forget to rename the option right.

my phone is root , but can't delete system app !!!

what is that ?!
i also tried to remove by link-2-sd , but failed again !

Did you try using titanium backup?
Assuming you have ADB set up, open up the Terminal if you're in Linux or the Command Line if you're in Windows and type the following:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cd /system/app
ls
rm *name of app*

thank u
i installed terminal on my phone and your command is work!
but u know , by link2sd or "system app remover " you can find out the app by its icon .
so why i can't remove app by application !
- titanium backup , every time i try to trmove an application by titanium backup , it getting freeze! and force close ( after a while )
- link2sd : when i try to remove an app it says can't mount ...
- system app remover : when i try to remove , a security notification appear ...
so how can i remove an app easily by this applications ?

Maybe you have to try another root method??
Mine is working without any issue
Seems like those apps you want to use do not have SU permission. Did you install SU and Busybox?
It could sound silly but did you check with root checker that you really have root access?
If yes, another reason that I could think of is you might not grant the SU access when you opening up the TB
the point the makes me wondering is that " root checker" says that you have root permission !!!!!!!!!!!!
just one app worked for me !! " root app delete " 6.9.24 !
but this one not working complietely too . when i try to remove a system app it can't install that , but after that , an option appera and ask me : do you want to force uninstall , i said: yes . then uninstalled !
but i don't know why i can't remove the system app like others !
is that related to any security update ?
why my post putting double !!!!!
i moved system apps by root explorer
As I've said, try rooting your phone by another method. Mine without any problem.

You did not respond or confirm to dabgoo that you have super user and Busybox installed.
Did you install Super user PRO, you need to activate it?
I did not active it a first.
You can get a false positive from root checker. It will say you have root when super user is not installed properly. This happened to me.
Check in the Super user app if Super user is actually granting access to other apps.

Could be a long shot, look under settings /general /security /device administrators and uncheck knox if its checked.
I ran into this prob when trying to remove knox. it could apply to other apps maybe. Dunno, worth a try though.

[Q] How do I unroot my Huawei G700? (stock ROM, bootloader locked)

I have rooted my Huawei Ascend G700-U10 using Eroot, but I plan on sending my phone back to Huawei due to issues that caused me to root it in the first place. So, naturally, I now wish to unroot my phone.
I did not unlock the bootloader, nor did I install any ROM whatsoever, and am therefore still using the stock ROM. All I did was gain root access. How can I unroot my phone?
What superuser app do you use?
If its chain fire supersu i think it has an unroot option in the app
Before doing this with supersu uninstall root apps like blackbox installer
You could always reinstall update.zip using the stock recovery

I use Superuser as my superuser app.
I can't access the stock recovery, pressing the volume down button during boot does start some process but after a few lines it freezes.

Superuser was made a system app when my phone was rooted. How do I uninstall it?
I recall there being some app that could uninstall system apps but I can't remember it for the life of me.

You're 100% sure these steps won't end up bricking my phone?
Not that I don't trust you, just don't wanna take any risk since I can't afford a new one.
