Hey, Ok so i updated my Huawei u8650 to android 4.4.2 and something went wrong with my root. I can open superuser and it shows my binary and all that and it says im rooted but when i go to a app that requires root access like terminal emulator for example and i type in the command su. nothing happens it just goes to the next line. and i tried to mount my SD card partition in link2sd and it said that the script cant be created because its not allowed to su.
I thought it could be that superuser just wasn't allowing permissions but i open superuser and theres no apps, no logs or anything. I checked my settings and they're all fine and i even tried to use SuperSU instead and i still got the same thing. There's no prompt to allow access either. I dont know if the apps are just not trying to get root access or what? No app can get root permission and i need to get this fixed so i can fix some bugs on the rom. Please Help.
Thanks to all who attempt or do help. Ill be sure to hit thanks for u.
Please Help!!!

Follow these simple steps:
1. Go to the Play Store and install SuperSU.
2. When SuperSU is installed, give it permission as Super User.
3. Uninstall KingUser.
4. Done.

hI! I try on my HUAWEI ASCEND G6 and... dont work ... is possibel that an update that Kinguser had done make it impossibel?????
I root with RootGenius_en, was ok, kinguser ask for a update, done. But Now i whant to change do SuperSu and dont work. I had permissions and every thing...
Help! :crying:
Me too
I'm trying to do this too, but I aint sure how to do it. I mean I guess if its not super necessary I can leave it the way it is. Tried this method and its a no go. I don't think the KingUser SU is letting superSU update its binaries. I already have twrp, but not sure what next. If its not necessary I'll leave it alone, but I was just wondering if theres any reason to change over or if it could even be done.
P.S This way never worked for me as superSU can't get past trying to install the binaries. I got twrp so I'm wondering if I'd have to flash it. Nothings wrong on my end are anything, but I just assumed having superSU would be better then kinguser but not really sure.
many people have this problem.
first of all, kinguser is great to root the G6, and in most cases the only working method without custom recovery,
but because it flashes kinguser.apk as system app you can't uninstall it the normal way.
the solution is to flash supersu.zip and then uninstall kinguser. this way supersu will be your systemapp.
find the files and tutorials you need on our facebook group,
we have 1500+ members, CWM + TWRP, android 4.3 + 4.4, we can root your g6 and unlock your bootloader.
but we still don't have a subforum on XDA....

Must vary from device to device cause I've did all that, and it gives the message "Installing Please wait..." and then after it fails it says " Installation Failed! Please reboot and try again" and if kinguser is removed in superSU when trying to update/install the binaries it says "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem! If just upgraded to Android 4.3 you need to manually re-root- consult the relevant forums for your device."
This aint the g6 though but this thread is the kinguser replace with superSU thread. So I thought I'd post in it.

Install SuperSu rom magazin play.
Then instal rom lite box.
Open the app, and uninstall kinguser
easy, and it`s working.I just deleted kinguser 2 mins ago
Hum
@andruala Never worked for me that way, anytime I remove king user root gets removed. Never was able to flash superSU rom correctly because binaries couldn't get updated from superSU because root was removed once king user was uninstalled. I've heard people mention it working the way you suggested, but I've also read posts where people have a hard time getting it replaced with superSU because root gets removed when king user is replaced, which doesn't allow superSU to install the binaries correctly. Most people probably can't get the binaries installed correctly from superSU which is the same problem I had so they end up just leaving it king user. I could try whats suggested here but I very much doubt its going to work as explained from my conflict that when king user is removed, root is removed and whether you flash a SU zip or not root still aint enabled because SU binaries are nt installed correctly. So until I actually can confirm this works myself I'm gonna prob say its a no-go for me. Could be device specific but I did all this to a tee and still had problems. There was a post on freak tab where someone had the same problem. I might still try this, I just dont see it working like as said.

Yes...i`m really sorry.For me wit worked before i restarted the phone...
After de restart i`ve seen that the root is not working anymore...
Sorry for my bad.
No worries bro. Probably varies depending on how you root from device to device.
Its not your fault. No worries. I'm just thinking it varies from device to device and how you actually go about rooting . I'm also thinking that maybe if I rooted with another app/prog that it would have been easier to switch from king user to superSU. I use lookout premium security on my phone and kingroot and king user have never been flagged with any viruses so I've just left it on and running the way it is and so far so good. Other then the two errors I mentioned in the previous post king user/kingroot has been working good. I'm sure if I did a whole restore/wipe/clean and root with another program there might be a possibility to remove king user and replace with superSU but in the end I just decided to roll with king user/kingroot as I didn't feel like doing al that and its been doing its job fine.

Well I thought about leaving kinguser sitting there on my system too until one day I installed network monitor stuff and noticed kinguser sure likes to make HTTP connections every time the Internet is available. Imagine that. Also have a look, there are /system/bin/.usr/.ku etc. hiding all over your system.
The earlier versions of Kingo Root were much better

Those earlier versions were putting SuperSU binaries into the root. But now they are putting on this King User crap. Reason I say it's crap is exactly what you mentioned. As soon as I root a phone with Kingo Root, Google Search immediately tells me that it will not allow me to search for anything because "your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now"
Good God! What the heck is Kingo Root putting onto these phones now? It sure isn't putting just su binaries in there.
Indeed. What is needed is for someone to take a vanilla phone into a cleanroom, install the mess, and report back on exactly what ended up getting put where, in order for somebody to make a "kinguser detox/.antidote" APP and/or shell scripts that would clean the mess totally back off.
don't know if it's gonna help you ( have alcatel onetouch idol 2 mini s):
i also couldn't update binaries su and had kinguser.
then i downloaded the beta version of supersu (on xda) and flashed it with my cwm. after that when supersu asked if i wanted to update, i said yes and choose normal update (not the cwm/t... one) it than updates and asked if i wanted to remove the external root apps (ie: kinguser) and voila!
(sorry English isn't my language, so don't know if i explained myself well^^)

Why did you need to root with kingo if you have custom recovery?!
I rooted first then found the cwm for my phone?

Oh. I wasn't angry at you Was just asking.
it took me like a year to root my phone then i couldn't make it work well with kinguser, and i wanted supersu anyway, so i found that i could install manually the app with cwm .
anyway, i don't now if you can use cwm without a root?

You can, but it doesn't really make much sense to.
Use Eroot, then try superSU installation

I had the same issue with my mobile, (Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray (ST18i)), I then rooted my phone with EROOT Software which installed a superuser app, then i got the .apk file of SuperSU via Bluetooth from a friend and installed it. one has to grant permission when it asks for superuser rights, then updating binary files is no longer a problem. It also asks for removal of the Superuser-app that was pushed through the EROOT software, you do that. Then I installed link2SD and link2sd pro key from google play store and converted the SuperSU app into a system-app. Now SuperSU is working perfectly again.
You both should try it!!
My Lucky Patcher is not working, whenever I try to patch something or remove license verification, it says "su java code running, custom patch not found. It's problem with the root, don't have access to sd card from root. My device is working fine with root as I have no problem with other root apps.
1. I tried to reinstall superuser, but nothing changed.
2. I updated su binary, busy box & also reinstalled lucky patcher, but in vain.
Help plz.
Hi,
Lucky Patcher falls under XDA's no talk of or posting of warez. It hacks paid apps, which is exactly what you are doing with it.
Please keep the lucky Patcher talk away from XDA.
Thank you for understanding. Thread closed.
My device: MMX Unite 2 A106 8Gb
ROM: Stock Kitkat 4.4.2
Root: Yes, rooted with Kingroot
Superuser installed: Kinguser 4.0.0
Problem: My Kinguser seems to want to upgrade Su. Yes, the app says its Su, wheter Su here means Su binary I can't say. (But, either way the problem persists) The problem is somehow the kinguser failed to upgrade that and kept interrupting other apps and giving a push msg "Su upgrade faied. Missing root permission". Though, the root permission does seem really missing coz other apps with root privilege are working fine. But, neither the interruption, nor the push msg ceased coming up.
Solutions tried: I tried upgrading Su binary with Superuser by ChainsDD. But, this Superuser, having outdated binary notification turned on, did not seem to need any upgradation. And, when I tried manually it gave msg "failed" in red. I tried Superuser Update Fixer too. But, it couldn't detect any problem.
Now, I tried SuperSU by Chainfire. And, to my woe, it failed repeatedly to do the initial su binary upgrade in NORMAL way. I tried flashing Update_SuperSU zip from xda developers forum but that instead of doing any good, got the Kinguser hidden and my root privilege broken.
So, now, back to top, how can I upgrade Su for Kinguser when the app itself failed????? Is there any alternative to it??? Help, kindly.....
N.B.: I'm far from being an expert. So, please say all the necessary details of what to do and how to do.

So I'm a noob at rooting...and I just rooted my old note 4 SM-N9100, my 1st root, so I could run all the Kali pentests. Everything went great with the root. I installed several "root required" apps such as; busybox, sys app remover,& lucky patcher & also some no root required apps. After installing lucky patcher I went to "patch to andriod" without any luck. But while I was waiting for it to patch, I downloaded a few other apps. The phone restarted after the attempted patch, like normal, and once it restarted I went to install the 2 apps I DL before the patcher finished. Neither would install saying, "app not installed". That wasnt normal & I fig. That lucky patcher had something to do with it so, I uninstall LP.....and now I can't install ANYTHING... NOTHING.....ZERO lol. Plzzz help!

Greetings and welcome to assist. Lucky patcher is banned on xda as it is warez so we can't help you with anything related to it. If removing all patches doesn't work then you will need to reinstall your stock rom
Good Luck
