Flash SuperSU instead of SuperUser. It could be a fix. FAQ 4.

Already running super su.

I never had this drain so I'm not sure it could help you but:
- try wakelock detector too enabling system services/app (advanced mode from the settings)
- remove apps newly installed and revoke root for some apps.
- rebooting doesn't change anything?
- did you or are you using adb shell at the moment?

I just reached full charge and rebooted. I'll see if I get it again or it was just a fluke. I did use adb but not a shell and terminal emulator was not used or running

Are you running nightlies? If so using a previous version of /system/priv-app/Shell.apk might fix it.

No it's all stock w/ xposed gb and app ops. Seems it was a fluke thing as it's gone away after a full charge and reboot

seems like a stuck process, but it can very well be xposed. i know xposed is popular, but it does create a multitude of differing undocumented issues for many(while many have no issues or aren't aware of issues). so if it keeps happening, id try uninstalling xposed as a very first thing to try. i know that i personality help quite a few by suggesting uninstalling xposed.

A reboot would probably fix it next time you notice it.
Also try wiping cache and dalvik in recovery.

Spontaneous loss of root privileges on CM 7.1

So I'm running CM 7.1 stable with Matr1x 8.0 cfs and I went to turn on my tethering yesterday and I got a toast notification saying I was unable to start tethering due to an inability to gain root access. As of a few minutes ago, I am unable to gain root access with titanium backup, wireless tether, or the terminal emulator.
Has anyone ever seen something like this, or know what may be wrong?
Thanks in advance

I tried updating from within SU and the prompt showed up, I accepted, and I got a toast saying that Superuser had been granted SU permissions. Then the update failed from lack of root privileges. Titanium Backup and the terminal are still not able to gain access

I already tried that. No dice.

Keep seeing "shell has been granted superuser permissions"

Why do I keep getting this message???

I started getting this a bunch earlier today. Phone was incredibly sluggish when this was happening. It took multiple reboots before it stopped and phone started acting like normal
I'm getting the same message quite often running SynergyROM 1.6. Not sure what's causing it.

My GF is on stock (but rooted) and will once in a while get that too... I never do though on Synergy, unless of course I'm trying to access something that needs root.
It has something to do with the superuser binary 3.1.1
Keep superuser installed, download SuperSU from the play store and upon opening it youll get a prompt to update the binary. Do that, uninstall superuser and no more popups, just use supersu instead of superuser from now on.

Installed supersu, I'll see how she responds today. Hopefully the messages will stop!!!

He does mean literally uninstall superuser. SuperSU and Superuser are both apps used to manage root, they function just about the same. Before you go through the hassle, try updating the binary on Superuser. Open the app, flick to the right to info, click on the third option 'su binary'. The click update on the bottom. I
Or if you just want the messages gone, simply turn off notifications.

Do not un-install until after you install supersu. Run that first to give it permissions and to allow it to update. After that you can go into root explorer and delete superuser from the system/apps folder.

Im getting also on a rooted galaxy note but ive not flashed a rom or anything. Just rooted last night but mine seems to hang and then i get the msg. Should i try the same thing that was sugessted? Its kinda annoying
Don't worry about uninstalling Superuser. It's not the actual su binary in linux, it's just a management utility for storing root permissions. You'll keep your root.

This. But you can't keep them both, otherwise they *may* conflict.

Ive installer superSU and updated bianary and still getting this error. Its keeping me from using my keyboard and fcing applications left and right! Its so annoying.
I've also had this issue, and though it seems to have gotten better after a reboot... We'll see if it comes back. I had the same problems with keyboard not appearing and TW FCing along with the phone freezing up. I'm currently on stock rooted using the windows fsdebug app.

Hello,
I've been looking everywhere, and for some time to find a resolution to this issue that I could understand. I have a Samsung Galexy S3 that I've rooted. It has no changes, I only got it to use GameGuardian. While in games, the toast will pop up 3-6 times and then the game will shut down and I'll be back at my menu page. If I reopen the game it works normally. This happens whether or not GameGuardian is running. I am using superuser and have updated the binary. I have also found a post where someone changed to SuperSU and that has not solved the problem for them, but I have not tried this for myself. I'm looking for suggestions on what to do next. Also, I'm not very savvy, so please don't assume I know all the in-between steps. Leave anything out on the assumption that I should know it, and I'm going to get lost.
Thanks much

[Q] Xposed not loading

I am stock, rooted and running dalvik.
I have downloaded "de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v25_3_6cbbc.apk" and "de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v25_3_6cbbc-1.apk"
I get the same problem with either. The package installs but will not go active. I can get into the app but there is a red warning that the latest version is not active. Click on the Framework button and try the install/update button. The app stops responding and I get a wait or close pop-up. Same when I try the "soft reboot" and the "reboot" button. I have powered off after the install to no affect. It shows two items under Versions "app_process" with a red dash under the active column and a 47 under the bundled column and "XposedBridge.jar" with a 42 under the active and bundled columns.
Are there any other compatibility issues other than ART that I am not aware of? Anything else I should be checking on?
thx
Sounds like it is denied root access.
Check your superuser application to make sure it's not blocked

You have to go into the framework and install it, then reboot

Thx, I updated the supersu version and that solved the problem.

Amplify

I'm giving amplify a try. However, the app is stuck on the startup screen of checking to see if xposed is installed.
Xposed is installed though. I downloaded the app via playstore, enabled it via xposed, and rebooted. Still not working.
Can someone please let me know what I am missing?
Thx!

Make sure Amplify has root permissions.

Partial wakelocks E6653 on Nougat 7.1.1

I've noticed that this particular thing was running at about 33% of the partial wakelocks the other day and I assume it was the culprit in running my battery down very fast. Like to know what it is - google isn't being too kind.
*job*/com.google.android.apps.nbu.files/.spamdetector.SpamService
Something to do with Gmail app perhaps ? Betterbattery stats was app I used to ascertain this.
What is this problem child and what can I do about it ?
Actually after a restart and 8 hours uptime it's showing 10% today so perhaps it's settling down ?
It has previously been rooted and has it's bootloader unlocked but it's back to 'standard' now - unrooted
I used a clean FTF and Flashtool (by Androxyde) to rewrite the system after I had previously rooted it and had Cyannogen on it. It doesn't need root to run better battery stats, as I installed it using some ADB commands which give it more permissions. Have also used some ADB commands, (re cmd appops set com.xxxx.xxx app RUN_IN_BACKGROUND ignore) to prevent some specific apps from running in background.
Am just not sure of how to deal with this particular item as I don't know what it is.
*job*/com.google.android.apps.nbu.files/.spamdetector.SpamService is service from this app i think store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.nbu.files
Are you installed it? If so, try to uninstall it.

It has been suggested to me by someone on a thread in a different forum that possibly this:

is the cause - however they didn't detail why they thought that.................

Its just file explorer i think. You can get better app replacement for it.

Yeah it does appear to be that particular app so I've deleted it. Was a beta version anyway. The Dev got feedback.
