Just did some testing around and it seems the best way to install the SSU is through the recovery since that also removes the old superuser app in the process. But I guess this will be less of a problem if and when rom developers start implementing this su instead.
[SuperSU] hermanchb:
Does it support GT-I9100G ?

[SuperSU] Chainfire:
Still not sure what's going on here. Are you using the latest paid version of root explorer ? I am, and it works fine for me, I've tested it on 9 devices with SuperSU now ... various Android versions. Though if anybody can figure out a pattern to the root explorers not working ... :)

Interesting... I just tried Wifi Tether 3.1 beta11 to figure out what's causing this, and again, it works fine for me... :S

See my earlier comment regarding root explorer. Are there any other apps you know of that behave this way ?
[SuperSU] jskolm:
This is honestly the only app that I have installed that works this way. Everything else prompts for SU access accurately and works the way it should. I am running an ICS leaked ROM on my Rezound, so maybe it's an ICS thing and Root Explorer?
[SuperSU] DarkhShadow:
I'm on latest root explorer yes, so maybe it is superSU?

Here's the logcat though

[SuperSU] Chainfire:
The problem can be either SuperSU or Root Explorer... at this point, only the Root Explorer developer can check this out, unless we find a pattern for whom it does and doesn't work. As soon as I can replicate the problem, I can search for a solution, but so far I cannot get the problem to happen.

I shall get the paid version to support your work on Wednesday (when I get paid, been an expensive month hehe).

wondering if the none showing prompt some people are seeing is down to broken overlays, I've seen a few custom ics roms show that behaviour.

Updated to v0.75, see the first page for the changelist.

Barring any high priority issues that may turn up or app-specific fixes, this will hopefully be the last update for a few days.

[SuperSU] pdppdp:
Since I always had problems and issues with su app I directly bought yours. Layout and function is nice.

Just got two question: normal super user app asks for root acces when I open an app. Your app asks when the app wants to changing anything that needs root access. Is that right?

For example rom toolbox: I can open the app and browse through it without beeing asked for root. as soon as I want to apply a change it asks for it.

Second question: How can I check if pro version is activated? I can't find any hind for that.

[SuperSU] tvisforme:
Hi, a request for future versions... It would be great to be able to select apps from the log and add them to the app list. Right now, you need to use "prompt" and then grant or deny access in order to add them.

Thanks in advance, great app btw!

I've just noticed that the SuperSU hangs if I create the second user on my Nexus 7 running 4.2 and try to run the SuperSU app as well as every other app, which needs root access, under the second user. under the main user the SuperSU works fine.
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
I'll try this out as soon as I get my Nexus 7 updated to 4.2 :)
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
SuperSU multi-user is going to take a few days.
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
SuperSU v0.98 released !

This is a temporary solution to the 4.2 issues on tablets. I plan to properly support multi-user in the future, but for now SuperSU will only perform for apps running as the "main" user.

If nothing else, at least it gets rid of all the freezing and crashing as a secondary user :)

[SuperSU] Magissia:
I have trouble using SuperSU, i flashed SuperSU with CWM, and now i don't have any root apps working, and SuperSU itself fail when i try to disable/unistall it or update the SU binaries (asked when i start it).

I don't have busybox and don't know how to install it (busybox installer asks for SU)

Root apps act as i didn't granted them rights, while i did.

(TF101 stock .27 guevor kernel 717)

I already tried to update rom (from .24 to .27)

reflash SuperSU zip

reflash SuperUser zip

Fix permission on CWM

Wipe dalvik cache and cache

Reproduce steps i did to get root

Edit : Titanium backup report it cannot use root because there was a problem when it asked root using /system/bin/su

[SuperSU] User_99:
Could it be that in the the latest " CWM-SuperSU-v0.98.zip " found in OP is still the older version 0.97 included?

Tried to install the zip but always 0.97 was installed...
[SuperSU] 3rdstring:
I updated via the Play Store but the apk in the zip checks as SuperSU 0.98.apk
[SuperSU] shaggyskunk:
EDIT: my reply was meant to be directed at user_99

It's probably the rom that you're running - if it's aokp - you have to update it from the store, at least that's my experience - if I'm running cm10, the flashed zip works for me.

I believe that it has something to do with the superuser script in aokp.

R4INS for AOKP
[SuperSU] Kroenen66:
Can I use Super SU v0.98 for my Google Nexus 10?

Before I would unlock the bootloader via fastboot and than Install CWM

and then install with CWM the SuperSU.zip.

Would this work and I root for my device?
[SuperSU] Formhault:
Not sure. You could give it a try, provided you have CWM (which would imply you already have root)... make sure you have a NANDROID before trying anything.

Or... you could wait for a proper certain answer.

Oh, so you have a Nexus 10? I hate you :) :silly:
[SuperSU] Kroenen66:
Yes, a second answer would be good. ....Is anyone here who knows more? :)

[SuperSU] XxXPachaXxX:
I'm investigating this strange thing from 2 days. it's really incredible but on my phone this command have something to do with the lightsensor.

I will report results soon.
[SuperSU] osm0sis:
This would also be a great opportunity to implement that Pro feature suggestion: per-app "Grant with PIN every time" (when PIN is enabled). That way we could secure important (ie. potentially damaging) root programs indefinitely, especially across the different user accounts. :good::)

Edit: Just to explain this a little better since I was finding it hard to word earlier... Under SuperSU per-app settings you would choose to set "Access: PIN", then when you try to open the app it would bring up the pin code pad every time, and if you enter the correct pin the app gets granted superuser privileges, if the pin is incorrect it denies, effectively locking the app from unwanted access. Could take it one step further and have it close the app if it's denied, but I guess that part might be a little outside the scope of SuperSU. ;)
[SuperSU] XxXPachaXxX:
I can confirm, after lots of tests, that if i deny the permission to the command executed with the mkshell, the lightsensor not works correctly. There are problems contacting the device though the kernel. The result is that something the sensor work, something it "not exists".

With allowed access, no problems and no errors in the logs.

It's incredible.
[SuperSU] ogre_x:
A question regarding the updater-script in the zip-file:

Why so complex? It deletes a bunch of applications in /system temporarily. Is it possible to make a more streamlined script that only installs the superuser apk and su binary?
[SuperSU] Pons:
My theory on it moving the items is to ensure SuperSU has enough room to be installed. As for streamlining it, if you can read and understand enough to know what it's doing (you, at least, obviously do), it shouldn't be too hard to assume you know how to edit it yourself. More or less, simply delete the lines. You can do all of it on your phone, even.
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
Correct, some devices do not have the space. So it moves apps away that can be reinstalled from Play if missing (like Maps), if moving them back fails.
[SuperSU] yaonos:
Hi, I'm using SuperSU on my HTC Desire S running HTC's stock ICS. This morning I got a root access request from SuperSU for the init process.

This is the first time I get a notification for the init process, and I can't see any reason why it should request root access via SuperSU. I've updated SuperSU to v0.98 via Google Play a few days ago. Can this be related or should I suspect another application on my device ?
[SuperSU] ogre_x:
Yep, thanks.

I read up on signing update-zips, and created my own with a modded installer script that doesn't do anything but installing Superuser and su. Worked nicely.
[SuperSU] loveshino:
Need Temporary unroot....please..

[SuperSU] jayjay3333:
To remove root just unchecked Enable Superuser in settings. If it is still an issue clean install your ROM since it sounds like a weird app problem, not SU.

Hello,

On the TF101 (or any device with a physical keyboard connected by USB/BT) we cannot write the authorization code using the physicial keyboard.

Is it possible to let users write the code using the physical keyboard ? (Will also save nerves for some future desktop android user without touch screens)

Using a physical keyboard for entering security codes (pins mostly) shouldn't be done, because it makes a security hole, this is why games that have security pins for login have an on-screen keyboard without ability to use hardware keyboard ;)

I'm running 4.2.1 an SU v0.99 everything was fine until today. I tried installing sixaxis app.. installed fine but won't run stating hasn't been granted SU permissions.

Then my busy box and ad free apps disappeared (those were my only two using root access). Any suggestions?

The su command inside terminal emulator needs to be granted with root access. Sometimes the supersu didn't popup, try to run it again and grant root access when it popups.

[SuperSU] Jay Aristide:
Clear all permissions for Terminal in the SuperSU app and try again.

Also, when you go from Superuser to SuperSU and vice versa, you need to do a special 'clean up' in order to make sure the transition from one management app to the other goes smoothly.
