Super User on Charge won't update. Anyone else seeing this?

So I am getting the typical # notification that superuser binary is out of date. When I try to install the update it fails at Gaining root access .... It has always updated successfully in the past.
I still have root access, Open Garden wifi tethering is granted permissions when I use it, but superuser fails at the gaining root access point every time now.
Anyone else seeing this or have any suggestions? I would HATE to un-install superuser and not be able to gain root access after the fact !!!
Any suggestions or help greatly appreciated.

What ROM and kernel are you on?
There's an issue that Infinity ROM does not include su within the ROM package and relies on the kernel, and some versions of imo's kernel does not include it either.

I'm running DroidXcon's stock rooted EE4 with CWM. No additional kernals flashed. Have been using it a long time and all of a sudden this issue popped up.

Are you able to get root access in other apps?

Hmmm..... Open Garden Wifi Tether says it has root access and it works, using it now, so I assumed I still had root. I just opened Titanium and ..... no root!!!
I wonder if applying the sd write protect or no battery popup fixes blew it away? Do I need to re-flash the ROM? Or is there a zip file I can apply via CWM to re-gain root?

This should work for you. Let us know if it doesn't.

Nope I lost my root, that didn't do it.

I'm out of ideas

I actually have a similar problem and will not update to the 3.0
I updated and then flashed the binary successfully. Had to reboot the phone and it reports binaries are missing. downloaded manually and flashed and still have the problem after reboot.

Have you tried uninstalling the Superuser app and reinstalling? I had the same issue before and this worked for me.

AdAway - what am I missing?

Evening. I had previous installed WeakSauce and SuperSU on my Verizon HTC One M8.
today, I applied S-off, and flashed ClockwordMod Recovery Unofficial.
I installed Root from inside CWM.
However, I still cannot apply host files in CWM. This suggests that I don't necessarily have full root, so perhaps I missed a vital step somewhere.
Little help? That's all i want is proper ad blocking. otherwise, this phone runs just fine with Nova Launcher
thanks,

I always throw my Awaway apk into system/app. Not sure if that actually does anything, but it seems to apply more often than not. I've always had issues with adaway sometimes not applying, so you are not alone.

Unfortunately, while booted into Android, the stock kernal prevents system partition write access. You'll need to disable it.
EDIT: I stand corrected.

This. The modified kernel it's being worked on still but I believe it can be found in development

Clarification
MultiDev, if I am understanding, you mean just disable AdAway because it wont work yet until a custom kernel or kernel mod is installed?

download and flash this in recovery: http://download.chainfire.eu/345/SuperSU/
then open it so it can update (use recovery method when asked to update)
then run adaway

Got it

Thanks, it successfully applied after that. Apparently I missed step one in some previous instructions where it said to flash the SuperSU binary.
Last question. I assume at this point, I can uninstall WeakSauce since we have permanent proper root?
I gotta say, this was pretty easy in Linux Mint 16....

S-Off'd and rooted through flashable zip. Installed adaway as a system app, and it's running fine here. Nothing else changed or added.

Thank you
Thank you all for replying. Nice to have such a fast response.
All this because I missed the first line of the instructions...

Yeah, I was wrong about that. The system partition is writable after S-off.

I also have s-off, uninstalled weak sauce, then flashed through CWM supersu.zip for full root, reboot. Downloaded latest AdAway apk found here on xda forum. I then ran apk file from my download folder, hit install. Open AdAway, click on Download fiels and apply add blocking. Now it just gets stuck on Applying... with the circle going around and around for over 15 minutes straight now! Yes i gave root access when asked. Is this normal?
Nevermind. Closed app, then reopened and it did the download thing like normal. Now says successful and applied hosts sources: 4/4.
So i'm good to go now? Does this need reboot like prompted?

You don't NEED to, but it is recommended.

This is the one app causing me problems. Adfree works problem free, but AdAway likes to keep getting stuck on "Applying...". I've got it to succeed once or twice by force closing and re-trying, but it's not reliable. I'm S-off, CWM recovery, SuperSU, and the modded kernel with RW permissions. What gives? :?
EDIT: Even tried installing Adaway as system app, problem still persists...???
EDIT2: Finally got it working. Noticed in the OP in the xda thread that there is a modded version to fix problem. All good

Thank you

I had to install the unsecure boot image in order for AdAway to work properly. Otherwise it just hangs on applying host files.
From what I understand, just because you're s-off still doesn't mean you have full write access. The stock kernel has the write protection modules built in.
Flashing the unsecure boot image fixed all issues I was having and I'm pretty sure if you're still having problems, flashing that will help
-HTC One m8-

I'm not disputing whether or not s-off provides full write access. But, I was able to install AdAway with full functionality without installing the unsecure stock kernel. It takes a while to download all the data and install it though (maybe 5 minutes or so?). Then, I rebooted and it's working very well. No more ads!

What I do to achieve root (please help me)

For the life of me I can't figure out why I cannot achieve root thru normal means on lollipop. Currently this is what I have to do when flashing a new ROM (even this method isn't 100 percent successful every time) :
First I flash my rom
Then, if I want to use supersu to manage root, I would flash koush's superuser (that's right you aren't hallucinating, I said koush's superuser)
Then I boot the phone, get it all setup
Then i boot into recovery again and flash supersu
Then reboot
Now I have root.
If I wanted to use superuser I would just do the opposite of what I listed.
And like I said, even this doesn't always work
What the hell fire and brimstone is going on? This should not be so hard., right

You might wanna check Chainfire's posts about rooting Lollipop on here or G+ - it's a bit different to other Android versions

You cant use anything other that SuperSU BETA 2.27 unless you're wanting to use a permissive kernel.

You wouldn't happen to have the direct link to it.
And, you are completely correct. I read all about it and then completely forgot that I read it and that I need to send it through ADB to the phone as opposed to flashing it. I just can't find the link in my history.

I am following this thread before you even suggested me, but its very confusing. I have made my TA Partition Backup. Now there are few steps which are totally out of sync by the writer of this thread himself. For example.
7.Unlock your bootloader now.request keys from here.follow the guide
http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlo...r-boot-loader/
He did not even mention how to unlock the bootloader, but nontheless I found out the steps to unlock my bootloader. But there is one problem with me. When I run that fastbood unlocker command, my pc gives error. I am pasting a screenshot of that error. Kindly follow it up and suggest me the fix for it.

Thanks buddy. It worked like charm :good: . But you know with greater possibilities comes greater mysteries. Now since I am rooted with my phone, there are strange things happening. For example Greenify is now acting like that it doesnt have full root access even though I have allowed it through SU and it will show Greenify - No Auto Hibernation, then it mentions Pending Manual Hibernation, when I click on manual hibernation it starts to Force Stop the apps using the Apps Module of the Android OS, a thing which never happened with me on any of my rooted android phones. :silly::crying:
Second problem is that the guide which made me root the one which you also suggested me, installed TWRP recovery on my device. :crying:For some funny reasons I never liked TWRP Recoveries and wouldn't stand a chance to use it. I tried to flash XZDual Recovery, but to of no avail. Is there any workaround to remove TWRP or Flash XZDual Recovery on top of TWRP and make XZ Dual Recovery as Default Recovery.?:silly::silly:

Buddy I think through this tutorial either root access is not properly allowed or maybe this whole tutorial had some kind of step which made partial rooting. Strange things are happeing with some applications. For example SD MAID PRO and ROOT UNINSTALLER PRO are working with root access without any problems. But GREENIFY and now CLEAN MASTER's AUTO START UP feature (requires root access) is not working even it says CLEAN MASTER has been given root access on my device. But then it fails to toggle enable/disable STARTUP ADDS which are around 34+. Second this Greenify is not even AUTO HIBERNATING the apps which are user apps. If I run it on NON ROOT MODE it says MANUAL HIBERNATION PENDING. If I run it on ROOT MODE it says on the top "No Auto-Hibernation" and down again written "Pending Manual Hibernation".
I have tried multiple SU packages like 2.71 Beta 2.65 but same ****s going on again and again. Can you figure it out :good::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

If you are following the thread. In the android folder of the downloaded folder there are folders of twrp recovery. Replace them with your desired recovery and then make rooted kernel with rootkernel oldkernel.img newkernel.img
And then flash it

Does rooting void the warranty of the device? And if yes, can we get the warranty back somehow?

Yes it will surely void the warranty
You can get back only if you unroot, re flash original Rom and update via OTA

TWRP is custom recovery. It's still in beta.
As far as I know, there are no custom roms. 8.1 is too new and they are still working on things.
Root with Magisk. Plenty of how to threads.

TWRP actually just came out of beta with 12/12 Walleye(12/14 Taimen) build, hopefully there will be some custom roms soon... You can use the Skipsoft Android toolkit to root, unlock, flash twrp etc. Or do it manually following guides here on XDA under development section https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2/development, ADB has been updated so make sure to have the latest platform tools.

Currently theres no custom ROMs at all for Pixel 2.
TWRP is a recovery.
Rooting is pretty straight-forward I studied these 2 articles/thread:
http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-pixel-2-or-pixel-2-xl-easiest-method/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2/how-to/guide-unlock-flash-root-pixel-2-walleye-t3702417
The kind of confusing part is when you want to change custom kernels and update TWRP.
As the recovery, kernel and root stuff all play around in the same partition now.
Read around the forum, since you got experience you will figure it out.

So rooting your Pixel 2 will invariably trigger this error message on boot, for any user?
Are there other undesirable side effects to rooting your Pixel 2 at the moment?
