Issue with SuperSU app - prompt mode - SuperSU

hi,
I rooted my Yotaphone 2 (MM 6.0.1) with SuperSU (2.79 SR3, systemless mode) from TWRP.
If I set SuperSU app in mode "grant", everything works correctly, all apps receive root permission (root explorer, root checker, etc..).
But if I set SuperSU app in mode "prompt", no prompt appears and the application requiring root access hangs waiting or says that there is no root; and the list of apps on SuperSU remains empty.
What I already tried without success:
re-install SuperSU from scratch (using the options for clean / reinstall in the application)
reinstall SuperSU (using UnSU.zip to clean current installation from TWRP)
clean Delvik/Cache
install SuperSU 2.79 stable
convert SuperSU app to system app
use other apps to control root
try SuperSU 2.79 System mode
In all cases I still have the same issue (except with SuperSU System mode, in which case I have bootloop).
Do you have any clue on how to solve the issue?

I'd be interested to know what might be causing that. That happened when we root our Samsung Galaxy S7 (G930P) phone. But there have been scripts out for tweaks and such and along the way SuperSU will start promoting. But would love to know what would cause the prompts to not appear.
I thought it was just our phones trying to get root the weird way we have to do it. Interesting to know others are running into the same sort of glitch (?) On other hardware.

SuperSu not granting automatic permissions anymore

hey guys i have one problem with supersu.
i installed clean master and do cleaning **** and startup cleaning things and after reboot all apps that have granted root permission( foldermount, gmd gestures, lightflow, etc), these apps shows no toast popup after boot and to make them grant permissions i have to open them. Same thing when i installed boot manager and did not do anything but boot and again no supersu toast popups about root permissions after boot.
is there a way to keep the root grants after the boot? ( i have checked default acces to grant in supersu app)
I'm having problems with clean master working with SuperSu too.
clean master is so powerfull that disables supersu permissions.
They probably change some file permissions that SuperSU frowns at.

This option has a summary that's pretty unclear. I've emailed the dev, hope to receive an answer soon. Fact is apps running during the boot_completed seem to get root randomly if this option is not enabled! Let me insist on the random fact, as my apps get root on boot frequently but not all the time. Other users have reported the same random behavior. Once the option is enabled everything works as expected!
However the option seem to imply that any root request on boot will be granted!? Regardless of user choice????
To make it short, check the option "enable supersu during boot" and root apps will receive root on boot as they used to!

You should turn this into a proper bug report in the proper thead (either the beta or its own new thread) with all the useful information you think may be relevant. There is no email support, all support is here.
The option itself is for apps that run before Android is fully up and running, or su from adb shell during a bootloop, etc. I thould not influence apps running su from bootcomplete receivers, and if it does, then that needs to be investigated.
Is there currently any way to enable this feature via ADB on a boot looped phone? I really wish I would have known about this! I wouldn't be stuck where I'm at if I had only checked this option. Device is stuck at LG logo, no download or recovery, but has access to ADB. SU was installed, but I don't have root via ADB since the phone isn't finished booting...thus I'm not able to copy over the proper system.img or change the recovery/laf. Dang!
I have the problem too, when I install Fake Wifi, the automatic SuperSU granted is not working. Please help some advance. Thank's.
Hey guys why root required apps request for root access after installing super su
I have the same problem, have to add a task in tasker, auto open supersu and root granted apps once after boot,

Uninstall as system app

The method I used for rooting my LG G3 (v5.0.1) installs SuperSU (2.46) as a system app. I would much prefer to have it be a regular app (as it has always been on my Android devices prior to v5.0). When I use SuperSU to clean up in preparation for "another" SU app, it removes itself and leaves behind a few files (including the su binary) in /system/xbin.
All well and good. However, after now installing SuperSU from the Google Play Store, SuperSU gives the message that there is no su binary installed, and of course refuses to work. I even tried copying su to "sux" and giving the latter 4755 privileges (while still rooted), but that didn't help.
Is this a bug in SuperSU, or is it a necessity of Android 5.x ???
ps: The XDA forum software will not let me post this as a question. Where do I post questions about SuperSU?

Sorry as I don't have a solution for your problem....
But still as far as I know Super user 2.46 is not fully compatible with android 5 & above.
On other hand I would suggest you to give a try to super user 2.49 beta which is the latest but still under development.
Hope you find this useful.

If you want to make SuperSU a user app:
If SuperSU was "updated" by the Play Store (ie there's an eu.chainfire.supersu-*.apk in /data/app), then delete /system/app/SuperSU.apk and reboot. If it's flashed *and* the afore mentioned apk is *not* in /data/app, then move /system/app/SuperSU.apk to /data/app and reboot.

If all you wanted to do was make it a user app, reroot, open supersu, go to cleanup and choose for reinstallation. After choosing that, if it says to reboot then press it again, do so, else reboot and install supersu from play. Done, supersu as a user app

That doesn't work (v2.46 on LG G3 running v5.0.1). It loops trying to uninstall. After a couple minutes, I forced a reboot. SuperSU was still there, and as a system app.
Edit: The same thing happens when I tell SuperSU to completely unroot the LG G3. Since I needed to unroot in order to apply an LG/Verizon OTA update, I used LG's Flash Tool to replace the system partition (THAT removed SuperSU!), and then the OTA update was successful.
Since LG now supplies an on-phone backup/restore tool for the G3 as part of the Settings menu, I no longer need to run Titanium Backup, which means I no longer need root. Given the nuisance issues with rooting/unrooting/system updating/etc, I've decided to remain unrooted on the LG G3 for the time being. Quite a change for me, since this is the first Android device in well over a dozen for which I've made this decision.

Can't uninstall system apps; Can't restore DocumentProvider

I'm running OOS 4.1.1 with Magisk. My problem is that since Magisk is systemless, I can't use TBP to uninstall system apps, only freeze them. So I went in TWRP and deleted apps out of system/apps and mistakely deleted DocumentProvider. 1) how do I uninstall system apps the right way (granting TBP system access), and 2) how do I restore DocumentProvider? Thanks.
Are you on Magisk v11.5 or newer? Because the issue where Titanium Backup couldn't mount system rw has been fixed since then... I just tested it on my Nexus 6 and I can delete system apps just fine with TiBu (Magisk v12).
On my OP3T I debloat apps systemlessly with a Magisk Module. After all, it's a systemless mask, why start messing with the system by deleting stuff?
Easiest way to get the DocumentProvider back would be to dirty flash the ROM.
I am on a clean install of android 7.0 for the galaxy s7 exynos. Flashed twrp, then Magisk v12. Magisk manager shows I'm rooted correctly and granted super user access through MagiskSU and passing safety net. Used root checker to verify root and passed. Installed Titanium Backup Pro to uninstall a few system apps like one drive Facebook and Instagram but even after trying multiple methods of removing them with restarts and cache wipes I am unable to remove apps. Also tried ES File Explorer with root explorer enabled- unable to uninstall apps through that app list as well.
Had no issues with a previous identical clean flash using SuperSU 2.79 and titanium- what am I doing wrong?
Would greatly appreciate the help. Thankyou

I'm having the same issue.

Magisk Manager with built-in su

Hi all!
I might be asking a stupid question, so forgive me if I do.
The situation is the following... I have a TVBOX Q96 HOME 4K (cheap Chinese one based on RK3229) that is pre-rooted. All applications using root work fine. However, there is no "superuser" manager installed on it in order to disallow certain apps to gain root access. In the past I already had a similar situation with some other box and when I installed SuperSU apk the device hasn't boot anymore. I that case I got a stock firmware and could unbrick it, but now I can't find any ROM for this device in order to play with it.
So, the question is... is it possible to install Magisk Manager in order to manage access to the built-in su? Older version I tried correctly identify the device as rooted (with SuperSU 2.76), but do not offer me a Superuser menu where I could manage access to the su of the apps. Neither I get a prompt when an app is requesting access to su.
Any solution to my problem?
No, you will not be able to use the Magisk Manager to manage superuser access for SuperSU.
Any idea what might cause the device to not boot anymore after installing SuperSU.apk?
I compared the installed su binary with the one from chainfire's UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip (arm7), and they are identical. What does installing an apk alone to the system beside managing the access for the apps?
I have to admit I don't know exactly what happens "behind the scene".
I have absolutely no idea why installing the SuperSU apk would cause your device not to boot... Sorry.
Edit: Wait... You write "installing an apk alone to the system". You're not installing it as a regular app, but to the /system partition? If so, that's what might be causing issues.
Sorry to mislead you... I wrongly expressed myself.
I'm not installing it as a system app - I have installed it (on previous box) as an ordinary user app and as I said the system couldn't boot anymore afterwards (I had to reflash the ROM to unbrick it).
BTW... this is a known issue with these Chinese TVBOXes. There are couple of posts also here in XDA about it and nobody knows AFAIK what is the root cause.
