I'm a big noob when it comes to rooting.
So I just rooted my Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360, following the instructions on this website:
www .android.gs/root-galaxy-y-s5360
I rebooted my system after completing all the steps and I do have the superuser app! However, when I opened it for the first time, I was notified that my SU binary was outdated. So I went on the playstore, and manually updated superuser as well as downloaded superSU, thinking it would solve the program.
After this, I stopped getting the notification, but when I try to open SuperSU, it says: "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem" When I press OK, it closes the app, so I cannot even access SuperSU's settings.
Next, I tried downloading Titanium Backup to see if that would somehow solve anything, but when I open it says it cannot acquire root privileges.
I've just downloaded root checker and it says as well that I do not have proper root access!!!
Am I rooted or not? What can I do to fix this? I just want to be able to delete bootloader apps to clear some space on my device and maybe use apps like Titanium Backup or Clockwork Recovery!
Hi,
You can use this guide and ask for help in the thread also,
Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 > Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General > [Tutorial][HowTo] Root Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360
I think you've missed a step.
Good luck!
I've just read the guide you attached and it doesn't really seem like I have missed anything!
Would there be a way to somehow reroot my phone? As in delete the update file from my sd card and then try another one... I'm starting to think maybe it had something to do with a bad update file that I used, although I'm not sure...
Did you ask in the thread above? It would be the best place to find help. ?

YES, SOMEONE RESPONDED BY SAYING THIS:
Don't use supersu - The playstore version doesnt work very well with our phone
Use superuser by chainsdd
Uninstall any superuser app and flash my zip in cwm with system mounted
(url that he posted but that im not allowed to paste as a new member)
You can check if your phone is rooted either by using an app that requires root permissions or by using a root checker app from playstore
If you aren't finding the help you need in that thread, you can start a new thread in your devices Q&A section, here,

Please note the stickies at the top of the Assist section. XDA Assist is here to help members navigate the site, not for support.
Thank you for understanding.
So, essentially he's telling me to uninstall super user?
And then how do I reinstall with CWM?
I'll ask in the thread as well, but you know it never hurts to ask twice
Yes, please ask the kind Recognized Contributer in that thread trying to help.
And I've given you the Q&A link for your device for all future use.
Thank you, thread closed.

Had a precious post on this. I am not sure what to do after the installation of Framaroot. All I want to do is to be able to get to the boot files and eliminate one file on bootup on my ZTE Z740. Is there a way to do this? I have verified the install with root checker. I am new to this so please have patience with me. Thank you.

Hmm ... if I understand you correctly, you want to diable the autostart of a special app on system boot.
Then please check the XDA Xposed Tuesday: App Startup Control with BootManager – XDA Developer TV. For this you will need to install Xposed framework (via Xposed installer) first, and grant it root access.
Or you can use another app to manage the autostarts of your apps, such as Autostarts, System Tuner/Android Tuner, etc. And grant the app root access after first start.
BTW ... here is another thread askign for the same thing: A way to *prevent* some apps from running at startup? (not killing nessiarily)
Installed those apps
Have installed Xposed and Bootmanager. Am not getting file files exposed that I am looking for. Just getting some of the files I had previously installed. How can I get to the system files?

Here is the Xposed module thread: [APP][4.0.3+ & GB][XPOSED] BootManager.
To manage the system apps, you need the donate version.
Alternatively you may use one of the other apps I listed in my previous post.

Device: SGS5 (SM-G900F)
ROM: AllianceROM v5.5

If you have any question about or any issue with your SGS2, just ask in the New members friendly Q&A thread.
... for the SGS5, just ask in the Noob friendly S5 All in one support thread

Boot up tune
Looks like I finally got rid of it. I uses an app, Rom Box Lite on the play store. Was able to get to the files (bootup.mp3) deleted it and hurray!, gone!

Thanks for letting me know. Thread closed.
I'm on a Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3110 and after I rooted my tab and after it rebooted there was a notification saying SU binary needs to be updated so I did just that and it would ask me if I would like to normally install it or TWRP/CWM. I tried clicking normal but it would say installation failed then I tried the other option but I dont know the steps to follow. So please help me how to update because I have an app that requires rooting but whenever I open that app it would say that it cannot access the root and that I need to check SU if I denied the permission but I cant see anything about allowing or denying the app. Please help
Hi there,
All you need for root and other problems about that is in this thread:
[GUIDE][How To RooT 4.2.2][STOCK 4.2.2][P3100/P3110 first leak]
Register an account on XDA and ask there or post directly in this thread: The Galaxy Tab 2 Help Thread [Ask Any Question!]
Good luck
I am at a complete loss.
I have supposedly unrooted per SuperSU, Root Checker, TWRP and other apps HOWEVER xposed and Play Services still thinks I am rooted.
I have cleared the cache and dalvik cache but still same thing.
Soooo, I browsed to xbin, bin and app and removed all of the SU and SuperUser and BusyBox files.
Bam, no more root.
I still have a question/need help, so please don't close.
In the future, how can I easily remove root since SuperSU - Full Unroot option didn't appear to work?
Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
Depending on your device, there are dedicated threads to unroot your device so i suggest following those. Also asking for help in that dedicated thread or device section is more advisable. If you want, i can link you to your section if you give me your device model
But usually that full unroot button and deleting the files is enough
im trying to make a custom rom for the samsung note 8 (n5110) and i cant find a way to add root to it so i thought making superuser/supersu a system app could do it? if it cant plz tell me a way or link a thread
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If you mean you are trying to make a stock rooted Odin flashable ROM by adding superSU as a system app then no, you can't do it that way, that's is a part of the process if it can be added that way on your device, there is more involved in the process also but that doesn't work for all Samsung devices. There are things about Samsung bootloader, Knox and qfuse that can prevent this from working on some Samsung devices.
If you are making a custom ROM like all the other ROMs at XDA then yes, you can add the superuser binaries to the system/xbin folder and then place the superSU apk in the system/app folder and it should work.

[Help] Make Custom Recovery For Karbonn Titanium S201 [Stock Boot & Recovery with me]
Hi Guys....
Can anyone help me???
I have rooted my phone somehow using both IRoot[pc] and Kingroot apk.
But the thing is i don't like kingroot for granting su access so i found one script to replace Kingroot with
SuperSu on top... And i succeeded.
But i found one problem after reboot..
SuperSu Promt was missing when i open up root apps like Root Explorer...and it stuck there for infinite time
and i have to force close it..
But in the Supersu App, i chose an option Default access > Promt to Grant and it worked but without Notification.. and that i what i do not want.. as it will be vulnerable to my device...
So guys , Please help me so that I cant Flash SuperSu zip For Clean Root.. As other methods dont work for rooting, only the above method...
I hope you all Understand...
Regards,
SKERRZ
