Hi Guys
I am new at this but I am hoping you can help me. I install TWRP 2 recovery and then wipe cache and delvect and then rooted my Asus tf300t. I used fastboot. Everything went very well. Then I opened Titanium Backup Pro. It tel me it can"t acquire root privileges. Install busy box. So I tried . I Went to Playstore and downloaded it, open it and it says my device is rooted. When I press Install, it says installing Busybox failed. When I open VOODOO OTA Rootkepper Device rooted is checked but not permission granted.
Please Help an Old Girl
Thanks in Advance
Linda
1st look at playstore if there is an udate for su app
Install it
Then open the Su app and update the binaries.
Done
I recommend downloading supersu from the app store and installing it. If you have appropriate root permissions, it should update the su binary for you. If that fails, please post every step you took and the results as best you can remember them.

Got it working Thanks
1> A couple more questions. It possible to take off any program that was pre-installed. Like Zinco or the stock browser etc and if so how?
2> When I try to install a apk file that I have on my tablet I can only press Cancel. The install button doesn't work. What am i doing wrong?
I now have Su working. Have rooted tablet with permission and busybox is installed properly. Hope you can help again.

Happy to help. I was you just a few weeks ago.
I wouldn't remove system apps just yet. If Asus releases another update, and chances are they will, missing system apps can cause update failures, but if you want to do it, you can get a program like root explorer and remove what you don't want from /system/app folder.
As for your install issue, go to settings - security and make sure unknown sources is checked. If it already is, you might be trying to install an incompatible apk, just a guess.

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.

So I'm trying to remove bloat ware from my tab using "titanium backup" but its not getting root access.
So I rerooted my tab with success and rebooted to attempt TB. No luck I read to download "busy box" but got root access denied.
Es file viewer does have permission from super user but that's the only application.
And I set super user to accept all requests but it did nothing.

Mine was not working when setting on "accept all requests".
It works only when I have to manually accept on first time.
Update your superuser and reboot, that's what fixed it for me.
i had the same problem with my galaxy nexus after updating from 4.0.1 to 4.0.3 ICS. i had voodoo root keeper, but all the apps were not able to get root as superuser didn't do anything.
updating superuser didn't solve the problem either but using the latest su binary. the su binary update through superuser itself failed (it couldn't get root, haha), hence i downloaded the latest su binary (3.1.3) manually from here http://androidsu.com/superuser/ and copied it over the old su binary (through a terminal app or adb, where root access still worked).
Normally reboot and opening/running the app works. You may try SuperSU alternatively.
For what ever reason rebooting and then switching Super user to promt fixed it. thanks to all for your more than awesome replies!:victory:
I just finished following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668173 guide.
I have the SU app, but when i check for SU it says i do not have it.
I can view the Root Dir.
Any thoughts?
Try to cold restart the tablet and when you are back online install root checker thats for free in the market. me myzelf had to reboot twice before i realy got all the root acces on my tablet.
Can you elaborate on what a cold restart is?
I booted my device down twice.
When running Root Checker i have the output of " Sorry! This device does not have proper root access."
I was helping with this device and the rooting methods seemed kind of out of line to me. I was surprised when it came back online and had super user, Then we downloaded root checker and titanium backup and got the no root error. We've made a few reboots and even retired flashing the zip file. Not sure where to go from here.
What does ota root keeper say? Load that up and launch it. You should have 5 checks. Any missing is A problem.

Sounds like you are half-rooted. I assume you are unlocked running stock jb? If so have you used this guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30516010
Following step 3 is what solved the half-root for me.

Getting close.
I used the file they provided to recover from and close but no cigar!
The only option that is not checked now is "Protected su copy available".
Seems like something could be missing, I followed the guide you linked verbatim.

If that's the only one you should be good. Use root checker to verify. To enable that protected su, use ota root keeper to make a backup. Should be a button for it.

Alternative Fix
It seems like you fixed your problem, but I have an alternate solution that might work for anyone else that might stumble on this post. This sounds like a problem I had, commonly referred to as a half root, and just fixed without having to unlock or change the recovery; all it takes is pushing a file via adb and a few other lines of adb shell commands. The fix I found was on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30522201&postcount=118. Follow the long code section at the end and you should be back to root goodness (or better than it was to start, in my case). If you have problems feel free to reply or message.
I did resolve it and forgot to post. I'd like to thank you guys for the help though. This was my first post and the community seems very mature and professional. Is there any apps (also roms) rooted/normal that you would suggest for the TF300T? Thanks again for your time

I've a TF300, with JB build 10.4.2.18 on it and unlocked, with twrp on it.
Can I use Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip to root?
Also I have 2nd one that "would" still be under warrantee if I hadn't unlocked it and install a custom recovery. I found a ASUS to dual OTG USB adapter, when I plugged the computer in to the adapter which was plugged into the tablet, it went black and hasn't restarted since.
As that is an electronic "breakage" would that still be under warrantee? When I call ASUS should I ask, or play dumb (easily done on my part - kinda proud of that ...)
Does anyone know? Would REALLY like to get that back, rather then collect on the "insurance".
I would recommend supersu instead of superuser on jb

If I may, yes user superuser apk, but after you do and reboot, then install supersu on top of that which will ask for superuser permission from superuser to function. After that, all apps will ask for permission from supersu which I think is better of the two.
So in short, do the following:
Flash superuser apk
reboot
Launch superuser app just to get the splash screen out of the way, then close it.
Download / install supersu from the market and launch it.
It will advise the su binary needs to update, do so
It will pop up a request for permission from superuser app to do this, grant it.
Once done, supersu takes over as the authorizing app for all other apps that need superuser permission.
As for the 2nd, you can play dumb, but if it's unlocked, it will say it on boot, so hard to hide. I've read that asus will still honor if truly a hardware failure, but I guess it could go either way.

Worked a treat. Thank you.
If I might, is there a way to get Google Search OUT!
Suddenly Google Search will launch (and voice search will NOT stay off) and I then get a gesture screen. I haven't launched them, but afterwards the tablet goes screwy for a while before settling down.
Man if I could delete that sucker?

I used the above, and already had superuser install (I was thinking ahead). Ran Avast Firewall and it grabbed root and worked fine. I like lbe better, well, I would in a phone for it's blocking of the imei (is that right? doesn't look it), but I digress ... I just wanted it for the firewall - I have a problem with Google in general, but when GO Keyboard lists an internet connection as needed and grabbing your keystrokes as a possibity well... (rant done - sorry).
I figure I'll tell ASUS I unlocked the bootloader - just to clear the air that it's P/S problem, before i send it along.
i just rooted my phone using motochopper. and am trying to use ltm launcher. every time i open it, it says root context not able to get permission.
and then when i go to the superuser, it says the superuser binary (su) must be updated. and it ask if i want to recovery install or just install, but none of it works. i even downloaded supersu from chainfire and it says there is no su binary installed. so i need help getting root permission to apps so i can get lmt launcher to work.
i read an old post with they guy with the same problem and u told him to flash it with something but i am not really sure how to do that. so if u can kind of explain how to do that.
thanks

Just installing the super user app from play store doesn't root your phone.
SuperUser app only manages root permissions. It itself does not root the phone. Head over to your xda section and read there how to root your phone .

Did you follow the official rooting procedure as given in your xda forum? Because if your phone is rooted then you won't face any problem related to SuperUser app and updating binary and all these stuffs.
I've had the same problem as listed above.
