Rooting Atrix 2 Problems - Motorola Atrix 2

OK I am at a loss on what is going on with my Atrix 2. It was rooted and worked before i upgraded to OTA ICS AT&T. Now nothing is being granted any kind of permissions thru superuser. Even superuser. So for giggles i rooted again. I used A2root and everything it tried to do was either not found or I got permissions denied. I even downloaded a root checker and it says its not rooted????? How can this be. I am pretty new to this but i am quickly learning. Please help!!!!

plug in to super one click and un-root?
or restore option where it wipes the phone and installs stock OS?
i cant plug it into my computer because the usb port does not work. and ive wiped it but still it wouldnt work.
Maybe download a stock unrooted rom and flash it?
Im noob to samsung

Your phone is, unfortunately, likely broken with a hardware failure. Nothing to do with being rooted.
i know its not from being rooted,but i need to unroot it before i send it back to att
wireless
maybe connect to a pc via bluetooth or wireless.

Noone checks to see if rooted. Kill the battery and exchange

Have you tried a different USB cable to see if that is the cause?
Get Root explorer from the market or any app that can delete systems app. With root explore go to system/apps/ and delete superuser. Or get SGS tools.

that was the first thing i tried, the superuser icon still appears.
Does it still charge & just doesnt connect to computer or nothing at all?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997
its doesnt charge or connect
Is ur phone dead by now? You may be able to charge your battery out of the phone? Anyway I'd figure out a way to hide the super user icon, there has to be a way to do that. I doubt anyone would go beyond looking for superuser to determine rooted or not
I have returned at least 3 different rooted Android phones at the AT&T store and no one there cares. Just take it back and tell them it does not charge. The people at the retail store are not power users, they can barely tell you the difference between Android and IOS, do you think they know what Superuser means?

Did you bother to read the thread? He wants to unroot the phone so he can return it because it isn't charging.

Choose "fix problem" or something like that in Titanium backup. It will install missing busybox.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
it doesnt have a "fix problem" it just has "problem"? and it doesnt do anything to help. but i used root checker and it says busybox is installed correctly but when i go to check root access it says "root access is not properly configuered or was not granted. it also says SU binary not found or not operating properly... do you know what i am doing wrong??
Did you allow titanium backup root access when prompted ? You can check in Superuser.

Mobile AP restriction

Good afternoon,
I currently have a samsung infuse which I love very much. It is an At&t, which of course has an AP mobile function. Only thing is I am using Claro mobile, which of course isn't apart of the AT&T network. About 5 days ago, I rooted my phone. Then downloaded "titanium backup". In which everything worked wonderfully. I was able to freeze the thethering option which allowed me to use the mobile AP feature of the phone.
I then had to do a hard reboot on my phone, which of course wiped my system clean. After repeating the entire process (root, titanium) now when i load titanium back it says "sorry, I could not acquire root privileges. This application will not *work*! Please verify that your room is rooted and includes busybox, and try again.
I am so lost as to what has happened as nothing has truly changed. My firmware is still 2.2.1 Could someone please help me. Thanks in advance.
Make sure superuser app exists. If it does update the binaries in the menu. If that didn't work then you need to re root. Might also have to force an update on the super user app. I did once.

Thank you for your response. I was not able to get it to working using your method. So what I did was upgraded to gingerbread 2.3.6 Yet all I want to do is be able to use the mobile AP. I d/l super manager 3.0 in which I was able to find the tethering manager. I froze it, but when I go to Mobile AP it says " MOBILE DATA IS NOT AVAILABLE OR INVALID SIM" Could someone please assist me with this. Even if it is downgrading to another firmware. I really really need to be able to use this Mobile AP. Thanks in advance.

You were given the answer. Super user gives permission to access root files.

Good morning sir. I have seen the response about superuser. Yet after updating as suggested. It still tells (titanium backup) that my phone isn't giving it permission for root access. Would that then suggest that my phone isn't rooted?

[Q] I can't root [One click .bat]

First of all: Sorry for my poor english. I'm from Argentina.
I was trying to root my phone with the one click .bat, but i can't.
I have the latest drivers. The ones that i used when i root this phone for the first time.
I tried to root it several times, but, i made a screenshoot at 3 of it to show what displays the cmd.
I have the debuggin activated, and i'm using the original cable.
I made a factory reset and see if helps, but it doesn't.
I don't know what to do. I'm desperate.
What build are you on 2.3.5 2.3.6 or ICS????
You see if you are on GB(2.3.5 or 2.3.6) oneclickroot.bat would work(assuming you were using this) but in case of ICS you should use Jim's ROOT.bat file..
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
Err, i'm on ICS Leak. And i'm using the Jim's root method. The folder name is 'A2_ICS_root' right?
Btw, in another time, i rooted my phone with this. But now i can't.
I had the same error message. It was solved by uninstalling droidexplorer from my PC.
Try updating the adb...

I think this might be the problem because i have installed the droidexplorer.
But, i already root my phone in my other notebook, so the next time will be.

[Accidental] OTA update and re-root with no factory reset. {i497} 10.1

Tried to OTA and keep root and not factory reset(had to re-root and install recovery but no factory reset!) and went through a interesting process and thought maybe someone could improve on it to save time and keep apps and data.. Ok so I decided to update my tab via ota and try and save root and recovery(currently using CWM). I got voodoo ota rootkeeper and I backed up superSU, then did temp un-root, backed up apps and data through titanium backup, well sorry backed up then temp un rooted with voodoo, did all my other backing up and started download of 4.1.2 update, tablet did normal download and shut off and went to Android screen, loaded some then went to CWM automatically and asked i wanted to flash un-trusted zip, to say the least I was nervous but ok'd it and it loaded and then poped up again in CWM after it finished flashing zip and said ROM may flash stock recovery on boot but this can be undone! ! I was reluctant once again but I ok'd it and WALLA it rebooted normally with new 4.1.2 except it said update failed or interrupted I closed that screen opened voodoo rootkeeper restored rood and again WALLA root. I haven't tried to reboot to recovery yet but root seems fine and tablet is same as before update, exact same as if nothing ever happened. Need input because I'm not a developer just a flashaholic!

Didn't keep, well wouldnt boot to recovery but turned back on like normal? I believe because its a different android version.

Ok flashed TWRP recovery and superSU and busybox from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43045886 using Odin 1.85 unchecking F.Reset Time. Works fine and and never had to factory reset during update process. All of this was done by just trying I guess, don't know if or how close I was to bricking so any info would be great. Just thought this whole process was interesting. Thanks goes to all the hardworking developers.

Less complicated yes but I didn't have to factory reset either, and the OTA went through without having to un-root, Odin and Kies factory reset and sometimes OTA will not go through when rooted so I figured it was worth a look! Sorry for wrong forum! And thanks focussoft for instructions and links!
