[Q] Lost root access after Verizon jellybean update - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I am brand new to this forum and I apologize if this has already been answered elsewhere... I just purchased a samsung galaxys3 and i rooted the phone in order to get my MOGA controller to work with all of my games. I am not a very experienced user when it comes to these things, but everything turned out ok and I was able to use the controller the way I wanted... however, last night Verizon updated my phone to Jellybean 4.1.1 and after the update I no longer have root access Is there a fix for this? I already tried to redo the root process and it is not working. I have the super user app reinstalled but it tells me it does not have superuser permissions... I just wanna play my games. lol... any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

OTA updates usually remove the root. U gotta root it over again. Not with the old procedure u might have used to root when it was on ics. It won't work on 4.1. Use method specific for 4.1. Look into ur respected forum for the steps.

I had a similar issue on my Samsung BH 2. I had to reinstall the Superuser.apk
Worked for me, maybe it'll work for you.

[Q] Samsung galaxy 551

Using cyanogenmod 7.2..Everything's fine..as smooth as possible..
rooted Galaxy 551 error dialer storage (process com.android.phone) has stopped.....
I am one week into my rooted Galaxy 551 (which I have been LOVING) but last night I did something stupid. It seems as though after I uninstalled a dialer process (with Titanium Backup) i keep getting the above error.
i tried doing a factory reset to see if the problem would disappear...didn't work.
And Now, when I rebooted my phone, I have no signal/no service.
Can someone help me to get my signal/service back?
Thanks so much in advance.
(if possible, please send responses to [email protected] THANKS!
Maybe you can unroot your phone ..or again install the stock android rom....other than that..try removing your battery and inserting it and then starting up your phone....
you should ask some other members...i too am a noob here....sorry couldnt help you....
Hey guys i found out that the best thing to do right now is upgrade your phone to 2.3.6 using odin and flash arkas 1.5 einherjar rom..its the best and the most stable rom with lots of features..cm7 is still in developing stage..so till arkas 1.5 is seriously good....
Been using for a day and no bugs...
really happy with the results...

Did you flash the CM/slimbean version? if true, than go to Settings->About device, click the build version several times until receiving the message 'you are a developer!'. Head back to developers options-> find root permissions, and enable to apps.

[Q] Looking for a way to Root an Off Brand Tablet

So I have a friend who has this tablet, a Visual Land Prestige 7, Model # : ME-107-L-8GB, Android 4.2 JellyBean. He tried to root the device using a market app called Towelroot before I could get to him. He says he ran the app and now all his tablet does is freeze up, and as far as we can tell it is still not rooted.
I have successfully rooted 3 separate GS3's and an HTC Evo, so I can say I know my way around a tiny bit, but I sure as heck would never trust any apk to do the rooting for me.
Anyway, I cannot find any support for this off brand or model on the site, so i figured i would ask here. Any one know the correct way to root this particular device? any replies appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sorry if this is in the wrong place, please move it wherever you think it should go.

Try framaroot.apk,super click root ,z4root.apk may be one pf them root ur device
Sent from my LG-P760 using XDA Free mobile app
You could try toweroot root as well...
I have used Bin4ry's method and never have any problems. You can get it here:

The other way would be to use dsixda's Android Kitchen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
Of course that is a little more involved, but that to has never failed me.
Hope this helps.
i also had a tablet with no brand name, vroot did it for me.
Use FRAMAROOT

[Completed] [Q] G-Tab P700+ isn't getting rooted up!

Hey there! I've been around all this ROM and Root stuff for almost a year now! I have a Tab called G-Tab P700+! I'm stuck with rooting the device! I've used Framaroot and KingRoot to gain access to the tab to change the firmware to try something different! It didn't work on both! I'm trying to fit a Lollipop firmware in this tab! Can anyone guide me on how to root this tab! Thanks in advance! :

Hello, this is herna from XDA Assist.
Well, the only three ways I know to root a device are Kingroot, Framaroot and flashing SU throught recovery. Since you´ve tried both of them, I would suggest you to search on Google about it, since we don´t have a G-Tab P700+ section in our forum, which means nearly no development for it.
You could try to search if there is other developer, and the best way to get root working would be tweaking the kernel, which requires a little of knowledge.
As said before, try on search information along Google, and good luck with it.
Cheers!
