[Q] Root or Root permissions not sticking? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Viper 4.0.1 with the latest TRWP recovery unlocked through the HTC dev website S-Off
SuperSU is having to update it's binary everytime I go into the application. The recent apps style of organizing the apps menu is not working (for what it's worth) and sometimes apps that require root access will say I don't have root until I restart. I've tried different Roms with the same problem.
The 1 bar fix for Viper 4.0.1 only worked because I was able to "quick reboot" by changing a setting in ViperTweaks that required it. I can't restart or else my root permissions will reset.
Please Help!

Updates must be flashed in recovery download here

You prolly fixed this already but in case someone else has this issue. Try installing Busybox from the market.
Same issue and won't boot into clockworkmod recovery

I rooted my phone with eclair installed and used clockworkmod recovery with no issues until I one day wanted to go back to stock and attempted a restore of the backup I made right before flashing the OverStock ROM. The phone wouldn't boot, so finally got the Overstock to go back. Phone worked fine for the most part, but from then on to get into recovery mode, required shutting down and using button presses (Up/down vol/PWR button) and it would go in fine. Could never get Clockworkmod to go into recovery mode with a click. Saw that (finally) Samsung has published a Froyo update, so took back to stock eclair using ODIN3 so I could use Kies mini to update. Did a factory reset to remove all old info directories and data. Update went perfect, but want the option to use the rooted apps (Titanium backup and ClockworkMod--purchased apps) to play with my phone as I see fit. Used SuperOneClick to root phone and verified I can get superuser with using terminal emulator, successfully executing "su" command. Problem is I can't get into CWM recovery. Only get "Android system recovery <3e>". Tried uninstalling CWM and reinstalling. Re-Flashed CWM recovery and it lists version 2.5.1.2 as current and latest.
I obviously need CWM recovery to flash different ROMS, but wanted a current backup before starting. Can't get any further until I figure this out. Any help would be appreciated. I was a noob, just a month ago, but was feeling pretty confident until this happened. Guess I'm still a noob, but just a little more dangerous now. Thanks in advance.
Just noticed that I wasn't in a phone specific thread, so here's my phone details... Samsung Vibrant (T-Mobile).
CWM issues with Milestone
In the last update of the RomManager was added support for version ClockWorkMod 3.x for Milestone - but still unable to use the CWM as standard recovery.
Using another recovery as OR1.4 you can start CMW from the SD card - but that does not solve the problem of RomManager stay with completely limited functions.
The Rom Manager is having updates constantly and I think we have a working version for Milestone soon - but in part I'm upset to see that the Milestone is listed as a supported device - when in fact it is not.
I bought the full version of Rom Manager because I believe it is a great tool and I hope someday I can use all its functions.
I have the same problem. I use OpenRecovery for Sholes to do those things. I hope we can use those tools like a normal user even a day.

Problem with root access after installing another rom

Recently I found a problem, I was using Anzhi's chinese rom, then i switched to rcmix's rom.
I've rooted my phone months ago, and installed anzhi's chinese rom at first.
few weeks ago, i decided to install RCmix's rom,
so i just download the rom, boot my phone into recovery and flash the new rom.
it works fine, but I cant access apps like Titanum backup, Market enabler etc (apps that need root access), it says I do not have root access.
However, i still have SuperUser and I can still access it.
was there any wrong steps i did while switching to anther rom?
all i did was
download rcmix rom
put in my sd card
flash boot.img
boot into recovery mode
install new rom
if i read the threads right, you have to update the superuser to make sure it works properly.
go back and re-read the rcmix thread, i'm sure it explains it in there.

[Q] Apps keep resetting on Android 4.3

I am on EclipticOne 4.3 ROM and everytime I uninstall system apps such as the voicemail.apk it reinstalls after I reboot. I also am trying to install the Xposed Framework but it doesn't stick after the reboot. I had same issue with the Stock with Goodies ROM, both ROMs I had lost root but I flashed SuperSu and got it back so I am not sure what is going on. Any help would be appreciated.

HTC One M7 root access lost?

Hi I recently updated my phone to the newest version of ViperROM.
Ever since I did the update (full wipe), when I go into recovery it mentions this:
Root Access Possibly Lost Fix?
THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE
1. YES fix root (/system/xbin/su)
2. NO do not fix
I didn't have this before I updated my phone, and I'm pretty sure I haven't updated the CWM recently either... I also have SuperSU installed for root access.
I've reinstalled the ViperRom 2-3 times with the same issue, my work colleague is getting the same thing on his phone to (same phones). Both phones have the same recovery, supersu and rom.
Very wierd, anyone else seen anything like this or know how I might fix it?
I've used the option to add SuperSU to system, but the message still shows.
I can't seem to do anything while I have this message. There is an OTA update from ViperROM which I can't install, because is keeps asking to fix root.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you gain root access on the phone? E.g. terminal emulator and use the 'su' command. Do you get a SU prompt?
If not have you tried manually flashing SU zip?

Its got to the point where I'm attempting to install a different SU.zip, and now CWM attempts to install then the screen goes blank.
I can't install anything via CWM at the moment...
I've had root access before installed the Viper 5.0 update, now is gone all weird.
I now can't install any .zip file via the phone, CWM attempts it showing "installing zip" then the screen goes blank and reboots.

Have you done Backup Data, wipe and fresh install, then restore Data?

I have a backup from before i updated ViperRom 5.0, can I not install TWRP or something? Its just I would then need to reinstall ViperRom again and set everything up.
To be honest, it wasn't perfect from when I did the update, but it still looks better than the old version I was on.

If you back up data you won't need to set it up again. That's my point. Do this
Install TWRP, do a full backup, then wipe and install 5.5 fresh. Then restore Data. Restoring data will return your phone back to the way you had it.

[Q] Lost Root Access with Custom Rom

I rooted my Motorola Atrix HD and installed Philz Touch Recovery. I just flashed a new rom, Color OS (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2693429). Upon reboot I installed Titanium Backup but it failed to get root access. I downloaded 3 different SuperUser apps from the Play Store and even flashed one in recovery mode, but I still cannot get root access. I'm using Aptoide on my phone as well. Aptoide recognizes that my phone is rooted, TiBu still does not. Anyone have any ideas?
