ES File Manager - Root Access Problems or SuperSU Problems ?

I have installed this File Manager on my OnePlus One rooted and whit SuperSU 2.02 installed. On Setting i have activated the Root Explorer but no REQUEST appears from SuperSU.. it's normal ?
Whit the "Root Explorer" disactivates i can continue to navigate to root folder after click on "/"........ i thinks or it's a BUG or somewhere it's been crash on my SuperSU......
For Example i have installed other File Manager like Ghost File Manager and the Root Permission as been granded by SuperSu at every started.... like the original CM File Manager every time i start SuperSU give the access but no Es File Manger... WTF ?

Its normal, Root Explorer will ask for su access when you go into /system/ and press Mount r/w, a SuperSU option will appear afterwards.

To add to ZephiK, you don't need root access to browse the root folders. Only when you want to edit those files do you need the access.

Unless you want to browse /data, then you need root access.

i thinks this "problems" like a bug it's been fixed in the recently updated version...... now the root access has beeb garanteed immediately at start of es file explorer..

Can't get acces to /system

Hello,
I have a sony xperia e3, with unlocked bootloader, and it is rooted.
But I don't have write access to /system.
How can I fix this?

Ps, I have rooted with the mobile kingo root app and then I have unlocked my bootloader. I can't change the ric because it changes back to the default when I save it.

try mounting rw in / system with terminal emulator or es file explorer if that doesn't work
get an apk named " super su me " from Google and run the application
lingo super user and kinguser don't let u get rw on /system
super su me app let's u get rid of lingo super user and get super is as your super user manager then try mounting rw in /system using terminal or es it'll work for sure this time

About Easy root for those who have h955 v15c

Hi all, i followed the easyroot system and everything went fine. The flex 2 h955 v15c is properly rooted. Now....tried to use es file explorer to uninstall system apps as i usually do with the other phones but here it is not possible. System apps wont uninstall...so...you are not able to get rid of play books...play games...google+...and other ununwanted apps (at least for me). The question is...if i am rooted why can't i uninstall system apps as i did for years. Does anybody know another way ? Thank you and merry Xmas

After first boot after rooting, open superSU and update it, then reboot and try to use root explorer in ESFile Explorer and you will se popup to alow root acces, grant acces then try to uninstall system apps.

Hi thank you for your suggestion but i did everything you said. Actually the es file explorer is in the list of the superuser app. As a proof of this i can access to the uninstall system apps screen. Now..when i try to uninstall it says that it is imposiible

Did you set r/w permisions on system folder in es file explorer? Select Root Explorer in ES and then Mount R/W, then give RW to /system... If this doesn help, than I don't know

Did everything but nothing changed. Thank aagain for all your help. I cannot even uninstall "normal" apps..not only system apps. I tried with other uninstalling applications but with the same result.

Clear permisions in SuperSu for ES file explorer, clear cache and data for ES, and uninstall, then install again and grant root acces. Dont cost you anything to try

How to install sqlite3(SQL database) in any android.

I searched over internet but didn't find any of the working method for installing sqlite3, So, i thought to write a tutorial on this.
There are some apps which require sqlite3 to work as for example the famous Xpose module "WhatsappX". So, here we go.
Requirements:- Root access, Xpose framework installed, Titanium Backup, any root explore (Es file explore recommended).
Step1:- Download and install Titanium Backup From Google play.
Step2:- Launch Titanium Backup and then exit the app.
Step3:- Launch Es file explorer and go to "device/data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/files/" Now, copy "sqlite3". And go to "device/system/xbin/" Now, Paste "Sqlite3" here.
Step4:- set file permission to "-rwxr-xr-x".
Step5:- just reboot your device. Your sqlite3 is installed now.
*I know there are some apps which can install sqlite3 but for me they don't work at all. I tried this method on Micromax Unite 3, running on lollipop 5.0 and it is working. Hit the thank button if you find this useful.

Thanks buddy, will try and hope it works for me.

Simple install and works perfect. Cherrs.

What's the problem?

Hello! Thanks for your guide! But I have a question: what is the number for "-rwxr-xr-x" permission? Thanks

I have solved! Thank you in every way

IT WORKED!!!!
I tried everything to install sqlite3 with and without different apps and it didn't work. I followed your your steps and got sqlite3 working on my phone in less than an 30 minutes. Thanks.

Works just perfect. Thank you for this tip.

I'm rooted, trying to install Xposed Framework, how do I delete a file from /system/?

I tried installing it with both Flashify and Magisk, but both methods failed.
When I tried installing it via the included Xposed Installer, it also failed, but gave me the message:
> Error: Xposed_Framework.jar already exists in /system/framework
I'm guessing a previous installation failed, but left the file there.
My next idea is to delete that file from /system/framework and try again, but since it's in an RO directory I don't have permission.
I tried using a terminal emulator to mount the drive in rw mode, and also tried using a root file explorer, but either both methods don't work, or I just couldn't figure it out.
Anyone have an idea of how to remove or rename that file so I can try to install the .zip ?
-Thanks

In the Xposed app you should be able to just run the uninstaller script. If that doesn't work, boot TRWP and delete it from there.

Unfortunately, the uninstaller also fails.
It says it can't remove that file from a read only directory..

Root Explorer....
This app does wonders, it allows you to modify directories in /system and other root folders. You can even change permissions of specific folders/files from read/write/read-only....etc. I've had this app since the earliest of android days and it has been my go to file explorer. Root Explorer of course requires root....but it completely unlocks your phone and allows you to modify any system file that is set to any permission. Of course there are other file explorers that allow you to modify system files, but this is the one that i have the most experience with. You should be able to access the system folder where the Xposed file remains and modify it so it can fix your problem.

This!. I've used it for years. Not muss no fuss. It's not bloated like a certain couple others I know of. It just does what it does and does it well. Manages files. No extra garbage.Give it a try. I'd be surprised if you can't delete it with Root Explorer. If you do try it, go to the folder you want to delete the file from. Once in there, look at the top right of the screen. Somewhere up there It will say MOUNT R/W. Touch that and you should be able to do whatever you want to within that folder.

Do you have the magisk DNSCrypt module installed? If so, thats why you cant modify anything in /system. Not sure why or how it breaks it, but it does. Took me for ever to figure out what was causing it. Now that i removed the module, i can modify anything i want again.
