CM11 get rid of Superuser?

I'm using a CM11 ROM, and Superuser is giving me problems - throws up errors now & again. I like and want to use SuperSU, but Superuser is integrated into the ROM.
How can I get rid of Superuser and replace with SuperSU (preferably just using my phone, no ADB).

in the integrated superuser menu(can be found in device settings), if you open settings, you have the option of giving superuser access to "disabled" (by default it is apps only).
after disabling you just have to flash the supersu zip file(can be found on the supersu xda forum) via recovery mode. and you're done.

I flash the superSU.zip after flashing CM11 and Gapps so superSU is the main root app. Never had an issue.

Please keep it friendly and there is no need for name calling of any kind. We tend not to like people resurrecting old threads, but seen as this came in handy for someone there's no harm done.

i'm having some problems in cm11 with superuser too so i took your advice and disabled it and flashed the supersu.zip but still no root and then i went back to enable it again under settings but now the superuser option is gone.
how do i fix this?

Just make clean flash of CM, then get SuperSU via store

In the SuperSU settings, there is a setting called something like "Respect Cyanogenmod Settings". Uncheck that.

Thnx alot! Works great! Now i just have to change that stupid google dialer that's in cm11

[Root][APP]TowelPieRoot v1.2 10/5/2014

*** DISCLAIMER ***
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU MESS UP YOUR PHONE! OR IF YOU LOSE ANY DATA, ITS CALLED BACK IT UP BEFORE HAND!
Towel Pie Root is a one click untethered app to root the Moto X, Moto G and the Droid Series(maybe others but these for sure) running 4.4.3 and below. It does NOT and WILL NOT root 4.4.4 so stop asking about it!
I want to started off by Thanking Geohot for Towelroot and JCase for Pie root, without them this wouldn't have been possible and I take NO credit for their exploits. If either of them doesn't want this posted they may contact me and I will gladly remove it.
Towel Pie Root combines Towelroot's futex exploit with a modified version of Pie root's xbin.img mount into one app. To achieve a one click untethered root for write protected devices! This DOES NOT remove write protection, and is still technically a temp root, I did include the option to enable root on boot. Which will re-root your device every time you reboot your phone, it also includes the option to perform a full reboot, or a soft reboot from within the app.
Here is a more technical description of what my app does. It includes TR's libexploit.so(aka the native exploit by Geohot) which I use to gain root privileges. Once it has root privileges it then echo's the file path to my modified Pie root file to uevent_helper. It then causes a hotplug event to trigger the kernel to execute the file path just echoed to uevent_helper. My modified Pie root files, kill TR's daemonsu and mounts Pie root's xbin.img over /system/xbin. Then it copies the newer version of SuperSU's su binary and executes the new daemonsu daemon and viola root
If you enjoyed my app, please donate to Geohot at https://towelroot.com/, and JCase at [email protected]ninglogic.com! I do not want any donations, I set out to develop this app purely as a challenge to broaden my development skills not to get a donation.
Installation Instructions: You need to have unknown sources checked in Settings>>Security, and if you have Towelroot installed uninstall it. In order to use TR's exploit I had to name the app's package name to the same name as TR's package name, so you will have to uninstall TR to install my app. Also if you are currently rooted with Pie root please reboot before running my app, to clear Pie's su daemon, and to unmount Pie's xbin.img. Then just click Make it ra1n on Moto, and wait for it to say Root Acheived Enjoy! If you encounter any issues please uninstall v1.0 then re-install v1.1.
Download link:
Version 1.2 for 4.4.2 devices
Version 1.2 for 4.4.3 devices
Version 1.1
Version 1.0
Known Issues: If after running it says Failed to Achieve Root, close the app and clear it from most recent's then reopen the app.

Thank you Sir, and Jcase and geohot... now the big question... I just factory reset 4.4.2 and rooted Pie.. installed your entitlement hack.. worked dandy... than I tried the tr... and guess what..... your app no longer works.. so, do I need to do another factory reset and install this new towelpie app or will your entitlement hack not work with this either? Or should I be the test pilot and find out myself...

No need to factory reset. Just make sure you uninstall the towelroot app.
Then install this Towel-root-pie app. JUST this app. Run it, you should be good from there.
iKrYpToNiTe, I know you don't want creditz, but this is also such a helpful and much appreciated tool. I do want to thank you for sharing it with us.
My thanks go out to jcase and geohotz as well. A smörgåsbord of thanks to all of you!!

Not good, I can't get it to stop rebooting. 4.4.3 moto g. Selected root on reboot, and now it reboots over and over.
Edit: Factory reset my phone through recovery using instructions at https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/97329/p/30,6720,9050
I'm at least back where I started from.

side note, don't try it on the moto G. I'm stuck in a bootloop.
edit: was going to try and uninstall the app before it reboots but so far no good.. might have to factory reset
edit2: apparently I'm not fast enough to hit okay for the uninstall.
edit3: YES! I win. I uninstalled faster than towelpieroot could trigger the reboot! whew... took like 20 tries...

For future reference, you can (attempt to) uninstall using adb. It takes a bit more knowledge, but it's simpler.

So I was already Pied... Pie files already pushed to phone prior to running trpie app.. does this app do the pushing or do we still need to run Pie on its own to push the files?

According to the message the OP sent me, PIE is no longer necessary - at all. He advised me that you can run this app on a bone-stock Moto X that has never had PIE used on it.

Guys, if you use this method, SHOW SOME APPRECIATION! Five-Hundred-Seven (507) views, as of this posting, and only 7 "THANKS"? Where's the other 500?
EXCELLENT Job, Sir.

I have been having issues using this method. I was already using Pie for several weeks and wanted to try this to survive reboots. As soon as I installed and ran it I actually lost the root that I already had. The Towel Pie Root app would say that I had root access but none of my other apps would agree. I would get the message at the bottom of the screen stating the app was granted super user permissions but then the app would tell me that i don't have root, I tried adaway, xposed, and root checker. I uninstalled SuperSU and switched over to the ClockworkMod SuperUser and that worked for root. The problem that I had after that is that the root apps that I was using no longer work. Adaway shows as disabled and when I try to enable it it fails. The same whit xposed, every time I try to update/install it fails. I removed Towel Pie Root and went back to rooting with Pie and I am getting the same results. Has the Towel Root portion of this changed something that I am now going to have to factory reset?
Edit:
After a few more reboots once TowelPieRoot was removed and starting Pie again from the beginning I now have root as it was with everything working. For now I am just going to keep things the way they were. I have my terminal emulator setup to run the last Pie command on every start so it always attempts to root first. This makes it really easy regain root even if my device does get restarted and I lose root..

wow thanks, will this work with Xposed framework? I was looking for a simple root method without voiding my warranty, this seems nice, I'm gonna try it, thank yoU!

I like the app.. seems to work great.. but the only issue I have is is the OTA going to be stopped from downloading? I have two moto x, one still on 4.4 and rooted with slap, and a new one on 4.4.2 rooted with this app. below is a shot of what I get when i force check an update with the slapped moto, this is with the 3c_OTA files renamed to .bak
I dont get the same message with the new moto on 4.4.2, what I get is "your moto is up to date" and the same two 3c_OTA files are also renamed to .bak files.

xposed works with gravity

yes, it works. have it running now. make sure that you softboot from within xposed.
i realize this is my first post here, finally decided to sign up ONLY for the reason to thank the OP for this.
I've been frustrated trying to get towel to work come to find out that geohot sold out and replaced the .apk on the site, wow........ then you had something secret for us and it was this thread and release of towelpie, GREAT work and goodjob!

xt1058 worked in 4.4.3!

can someone tell me or point me in the direction of how to get the exposed modules up and running. i use this towel root, then open exposed framework installer and hit install/update and get a pop up with some info where the last line says "failed to create a backup or /system/bin/app_process" i hit ok and there is still red dashes under active columns for both App_process and XposedBridge.jar? am i missing a step? the towel root app says "root achieved enjoy" when i use it.

You have to do a softreboot in exposed to get it to activate.

I dont think that if you install first supersu me and then kingroot your tab, after root turn wifi off and use supersu me, no data sent to anyone........ anyways it doesnt send your passowords etc to china, just like browser data and few app datas.... but theres no way to get passwords.... all are crypted or hidden well in smali

I wouldn't be sure about that. If you type in your password, once rooted, anything can easily capture the keyboard input and log it or send it out. Let me elaborate. It's like the guys who say, "Hey I have a firewall installed so it cannot communicate out." Yeah, o.k., so all the firewalls do is manage IPTABLES, so if I am an application and have root access, I can do what I want to avoid your firewall rules quite easily. Just a thought.

Hmm, updating the binary will remove the @#$%&* thing , we're just going to use the app to root our phone, and I guess wiping cache and dalvik is necessary

BTW tab 4 is best for gaming because of it looks and size but due to a stupid Samsung company, 1.2ghz + vivante gc1000 expect lagging, I hope some kind hearted will make a custom kernel for overclocking this tab.

BTW There's no Tex plugin on gltools, installing default will not work, so you have to find a cracked version of gltools, well if you do that... R.I.P expect force closes

Well i didnt say anything about firewalls i was daying if you manually disable wifi and use king root, it wont be able to connect anywhere to send any data.... also you can search by date and time files made during root session and remove everything to prevent any keyloger to work

Have ODIN and a stock image ready!!!
Be careful with this root process! The sm-t237p 5.1.1 OH7 boot loops and won't hold the root or Philz recovery... Yet!:cyclops:

No. I can easily change the file and date stamp to match any given system file you already have so that it is not easy to find. Also, Kingroot will not run correctly and root your device properly if it cannot contact it's servers to download the proper exploit for your device. Now, if you are talking about disabling wifi only so that Kingroot cannot contact it's servers after you are rooted, well, if you use any data what so ever, it can use that same data connection. As an example, I have to have data of some type to login to my bank site, etc..

SM-T237P Specific maybe others with PhilZ recovery...

Well, atleast my bank account cant be logged with different ip and if its tried i recice message wheres code that you need write to bank website to access account.... however i havent lodt any accounts yet after rooting with kingroot, it has so manynusers that they cant check all information they recive, just like facebook and whatsapp... (they're spying watnu do but they have too many users so it would take like unlimited time to check all accounts and keybindings thru.....

Flashing recovery trips KNOX (no warranty or OTA updates) and the other method sometimes doesn't... Also, the recovery/zip method stopped working on lollipop and marshmallow with the older SuperSU builds but... Chainfire has a new BETA SuperSU 2.6X that is a systemless root and now working on the newer Android builds using the recovery/zip method. This seems to work for mostly ALL Samsung and Nexus devices... Read about it here:

I restored my nandroid backup in recovery just to try this on my sm-t237p lollipop and it worked the first time!!! All apps get root access OK except es file explorer(now bloatware anyway)... You might need to install busybox for things to work... :good: :laugh:

Flashing recovery trips KNOX (no warranty or OTA updates) and the other method sometimes doesn't... Also, the recovery/zip method stopped working on lollipop and marshmallow with the older SuperSU builds but... Chainfire has a new BETA SuperSU 2.6X that is a systemless root and now working on the newer Android builds using the recovery/zip method.

OTA 4.2 Installation Error on rootet Shield

Hello!
I need some Help with my Shield Tablet. I own the "Nvidia Shield 32GB LTE" Version and did root it 2 or 3 Days ago. Now i got the Message for the new "4.2 Upgrade" but after trying to install said Upgrade, i get the laying Android with an "Error". I tried the Installation 2 Times with the same Result. Do i have to Factory Reset my Shield to be able to install OTA 4.2?
I have no Experience with anything related to Software modification and got my root with a YouTube Tutorial on the Shield. I'd like to keep the root, and would reroot if necessary.
Any Help is appreciated!
Informations that may be helpfull:
- I have the Nvidia Family Drivers installed
- I have "minimal ADB and Fastboot "
- I own the "32GB LTE P1761" Model
- I have Android 6.0.1 installed with the Security Patch from 1. March 2016 and Shield 4.1 (24.3.67.35) Software
- I used the "TUTORIAL - Root NVIDIA SHIELD Tablet / K1 - Android 6.0" Tutorial on YouTube

Once you're rooted, you cannot update via normal means as the regular OTA update will check the system partition to make sure it is untouched.
The easiest way to update is to simply have the updater download the Full OTA and install. Go to Settings -> About tablet -> System upgrade -> 3 vertical dots on top right -> Advanced -> Check full upgrade (check it).
When it updates, it will remove root and very likely the TWRP recovery.
After it's updated, you can then go back and flash TWRP 3.0.2-2 to the recovery partition and then flash SuperSU 2.76 within TWRP. You may have older versions of TWRP and SuperSU if you used the YouTube tutorial, so be sure to get these newer versions.

Thanks for the the Advice, it helped!
Now im facing another Problem. After updating and rerooting, i can't use Lucky Patcher to install FakeGPS as an System App. I get the Error "there is not enough space within the system partition to move the application. please free up space in /system then try again.". I should have plenty of Space left on Internal and the full 180GB on my SDXC but it doesn't want to install. :I Any Suggestions?
Also "Hide my root" tell's me that it can't finde the "su binary".
Damn i want a one-push-do-it-for-me button. :crying:

Your not allowed to discuss LP here so I can't help with that. But if I were you I'd look at enabling compatibility mode in supersu. This helps with programs that haven't been updated to work with systemless su. I think the reason you can't install as a system app is because the program isn't properly calling su.

I haven't found anything regarding compatability mode in supersu. Hidden option?

Google search it. It's a command you can enter, I think in adb, that will let legacy root apps be granted root properly. I know it's all over the supersu thread in relation to es file explorer

Also, do you have busybox installed? If not start there
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

Yes I have busybox installed, but didn't help much. I will look in to Factory reset since I don't have private Data on this Tablet and I belive i may have done something wrong with the reroot.
I did a quick search on the supersu compatibility mode bit with no useful Results.

Thank you Guys for all the Help! \o/ Feel Brofistet from me.
I found the cause for the Error. It was the actual .apk that i tried to install. I went back trough my Chrome History to find the first one i used and it worked flawlessly. I sometimes have to wonder how i survive outside my Room...

[Guide] How to use latest S-Health on devices with Knox tripped (0x1)

As some of you will know, Samsung have no longer allowed S-Health to work on devices where Knox has been tripped.
This guide will show you how to get the latest version of S-Health to run without this block
Rooted Devices
This method requires you to be rooted. You can always unroot after doing this
​If you are not rooted you can root your device by following the instructions below:​​
​
Download TWRP and save it somewhere you will remember.
Open ODIN and press AP then select the TWRP file you just downloaded.
Put your phone into Download Mode by holding Power + Volume Down + Home.
Connect your phone to your computer using a USB cable. Then Press Start in ODIN.
Download SuperSU-v2.79-SR3 and save it to your phone's SD Card.
Power off the phone and then hold Power + Volume Up + Home to boot to TWRP.
Press Install and locate the SuperSU file you downloaded earlier. Select it and Install.
You are now rooted.
​To remove root, simple open the SuperSU app from your app drawer, go to settings and select Full Unroot​
​
Follow the steps below to remove the S-Health block.
Download a root file explorer (such as Root Explorer, Root Browser or ES File Explorer).
Open the root file explorer and go to the /system folder.
Open the file named build.prop in text editor
In the build.prop file look for ro.config.tima=1
Change this line to ro.config.tima=0, simply changing the 1 to a 0
Reboor phone
Run the S-Health app
Non-Rooted Devices
If you are not rooted and/or cannot root then you can follow the steps below to get S-Health working (this will only work if the app is not installed as a system app).
Uninstall the S-Health App (if you cannot uninstall the app, this means it is installed to the system partition. Try Method 2 below).
Install version 4 of the S-Health app which can be found HERE
Open the app and complete setup
Update the S-Health app via the app store
You should now be able to use the S-Health app without issue
You can now use S-Health even with tripped Knox!!
{Mod edit: Download links via a suspicious URL has been removed}

Cannot download your S Health 4.8.1. Clicking the link asks me to log in to Facebook but, when I do, I get Sorry, your request could not be processed. Please try again. Can you upload it somewhere else?

Wonderful! It worked!

Like I said, it works fine for some. This is for those that cannot access it.

Have you enabled "Allow installation of apps from Unknown Sources"?
Have you tried re-downloading the app? It may have corrupt whilst downloading.

Cool mate !!
Working

Should we have the device rooted? true? The only one nougat rom i have is a stock no rooted. No way to install Shealth from system/app because I´m don´t have root permissions on this folder

and how do root the device on nougat? I read in different threads that currently rooting the device leads to broken wifi and brightness-adjustment.
Can somebody provide us with a proper root guide or does a simple unroot fix these problems after installing S-Health???

Flash TWRP in ODIN.
Then boot to TWRP and flash SuperSU-v2.79-SR3
To unroot, open the SuperSU app and select 'Full unroot'. S-health will still work as normal.
I use this root method and it works without causing any issues to the functionality of my phone.
