Pre-install Startup Manager with Root access?

Pre-install Startup Manager with Root access?
i didnt success to run it with root access
maybe its could be done if i run it while the installation of android ?
thx

Once you have a proper superuser app installed you should be able to gain root with any app.
If you are having problems with the superuser currently installed I suggest removing it Via either adb or Root manager.
Programs like Android commander can set adb up for you.
As a rule Any app that needs root I give it permission then restart to make sure it takes affect.

thx root manager did the trick
gr8 30% 126MB used
hope its will make the battery little longer
wierd the startup manager is not working even with root access
i put it in the backup root manager directory and restore and did happend to work but nothing :S
still the same error i get without root access

Please see Google Android issue 14889

rooting

have you seen that 1 click root an z4root don't really make a full root of our x10s???
I was trying to put some ringtones on the notification folder (inside system/media/audio) but I was unable to do it :S it said I lack of the permissions :S

Still need to crack the shell. Use root explorer or something.

hmmm well i used it and it says that message :/
maybe our root method is working 50%

Did you install Busybox from the Android Market after rooting with z4root? I believe this is what is used to grant superuser capabilities. Root Explorer should allow you to push those files after this.

busybox wouldn't install on mine after i'd "rooted" using z4root.. and now the superoneclick won't work for me either (I've just installed JIT)...

installed busybox and didn't work at all

Just use ringdroid if you like to add ringtone or notification sound. No need root. And btw z4root works good for me

I just rooted mine today. apparently there are a few versions of busybox that don't work as they should. I installed titanium after root. Load titanium, it will tell you it can't get superuser rights but will start anyway. Click the "Problems" button at the bottom of the screen and it will download a reliable version of busybox.
I hope this helps.

Didn't work for me either. When trying to download BusyBox through Titanium, I get an "install failed". Went to market and downloaded busybox from there but gives me a "your phone is rooted. Could not locate busybox".
I have an X10a through AT&T R2CA016. Do I need to debrand it before rooting?

You don't need to debrand before rooting. When you download/install Busybox from the Market, open it and it will give you the option of which version of Busybox you want to install/use, select the one you want and run it. Then you can use Titanium after that.

z4root worked fine on my x10. used superoneclick to apply shell root after that but busybox installed fine before that.

Will z4root work on my 2.1-update1 X10?
I have the Nordic Unbranded version with build No. 20A0504 or something...
I only need root to access the Japanese market, nothing else (don't care about otifications etc).
Will it work then? If I use z4root?
Oh, and it wont mess up my SD card, contacts or battery or anything like that?

old post i know....but it works fine for me....had you mounted in R/W mode? it should say R/O at the top if you have. I just copied an mp3 file straight into the internal memory (/system/media/audio/ringtones)

That what I do!
I use a "Flash tool release"
root by installing the z4root
then I i install busybox
and to get full access I install rootexplorer and reamount system to the rw the in rootexplorer
then use the "X10modtool" XDA Tool So Always when i try to change staff in my x10 I just open rootexplorer and re amount
Then use Adb shell and staff
(Work 100% for me)
The reamunting it just does not work when use seus or PPC - the ADB is close in the production version of the SE system
By the way How to turn on the ADB in the SE ?? (permittions)
In summary when you install XDA apps just add rootexplorer and reamount to rw

TF101 Problem, kinda lost OS root?

Hoping for some help because I've ran into some really odd issues with SuperUser/root on my TF101.
I used the guide in the Dev Forum and flashed to Prime 1.4, everything was great and working well. I made a Nandroid of my base to fall back on.
ChainsDD updated SuperUser on 6/10 or 6/11 and I accepted the update from the market. When I launched SU, I was prompted to update the Binary, I granted SU root access and it said it completed. However, since then, no app that requires root has requested SU according to the log and Kernel Manager is telling me I don't have root.
If I open Terminal Emulator, it is automatically at a # rather than a $
In Root Explorer, tapping the Mount R/W button changes to R/O and I was able to successfully create and delete a test folder in /system
I need to get SuperUser functioning again, any thoughts or ideas?

What's a TF104 model device?

Um. you do know that # in terminal emulator indicates that the app currently has root access?
Open superuser, its being recognized as permanent root because you allowed it to have root access.
And its TF101 not TF104.

Sorry, misread the model...
I know the # means root that's why the title is kinda lost root...
I'm not getting any of the notifications that SuperUser granted access, like I used to. Also, Kernel Manager isn't being granted Root access when I launch it
I think the SuperUser binary update failed, I got the binary from goo-inside.me and flashed it from CWM. Then I cleared the SuperUser app data and launched it. I was again prompted to update the binary version. It failed and prompted me to to flash a zip that it downloaded to my SD card. That zip is a 0kb file.

Try downloading superuser from the market.

Same results
Also, Superuser is now randomly Force Closing on launch.

Talked with ChainsDD, it's a problem with how he compiled Super User for honeycomb. Fix will be released tomorrow.

Titanium backup not working on 6.0.1

I can't delete any system apps with it anymore, does anybody else have the same problem or even a fix for it?

Working fine on 6.01 for me, Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling it?

I just updated to 6.0.1 myself, rooted using superSU 2.61. I too cannot delete system apps using titanium. I tried to uninstalled and reinstall the app (via playstore) but it didn't help.
I also tried to do the same via the root explorer option in ES file explorer and it didn't work. I tried to toggle the root explorer option in ES, but after I turned it off I couldn't turn it on again. Root checker does say that I have root, and other root apps e.g. adaway, xprivacy still work.
Any help and suggestion is most welcome!

hey guys, "system less root"

That would modify system... Just freeze the apps.

Some people still want to recover the space.
With systemless root you will need to modify the system in TWRP to get titanium and ES working correctly.
It's as simple as going into TWRP and mounting the system R/W.
You then need to open the terminal in the following places:
/system/bin and execute "touch su"
/system/xbin and execute "touch su"
This will create zero byte files for SuperSu to come along and swap/link to on boot so that ES and TiBu can ask for root and get it.
They will then operate as you expect.; with the caveat that you are on your own when you start tinkering and may break something.

Pretty sure you lose Android Pay with this method though, just FYI if you care about that.

But if you are running Xposed you broke it anyway. There is a way to get it working.
You will need to remove the empty su files you just created to be able to add cards.
You will need to use a Xposed module to hide modifications to the system so that the device check comes back clean.
It's a pain, but if you want Xposed, TiBu, ES and Android Pay, that is the price.

Download root checker from play store. If it shows your phone to be rooted, then updating will brick your device. If it shows "no root access" then you can update to Lollipop.
And, a word of advice, dont update to Lollipop. Kitkat works much much better than Lollipop on A6000+.
Also, you can try custom ROMs if you are familiar with flashing ROMs and stuff..

No app without root access can install busybox because without root access they dont have permission to write in /system directory. So, the "install busybox without root" app has to store busybox files in /data/ directory, and must be guiding other apps to that folder when some apps ask for busybox.
And without root permissions you cant modify the contents of /data/.
So, you need to install that "install busybox blah blah" again and then try installing busybox again. Then, clear data of the "install busybox ..." app and I think busybox would get removed, hopefully.
And yah, if this doesn't work you can factory reset your phone. That would surely do the job.

Yeah factory resets wipes the /data/ directory. All of your installed apps will be removed too, so you should better make backup first.
