Root I'm having permissions problems on a rooted Droid..

[tfm217]

I upgraded to a Bugless Beast 0.4 to get a 2.2 Rom and I flashed a Chevyno1 1.2ghz kernel earlier today. The problems didn't come immediately, but I found that Titanium Backup didn't recognize my phone as rooted. Said I needed 'Busybox". But the download failed for some reason (the message said it could have been because the application failed when trying to remount?).

I've found that some things that used to work no longer do. The terminal emulator won't allow me super user priveleges (typing 'su' and whatnot) but the phone is definitely rooted. Any idea what's up?

When trying to use an app that requires root, are you getting a message asking you to allow Su?

Yeah, I tried using SetCPU a couple minutes ago, and it has a popup telling me to expect another window asking me for root access, the other window never pops up, and the app restarts, without giving me the ability to change the CPU speed.

Typing su into the terminal emulator gives me a 'permission denied' response.

It kinda sounds to me like your not rooted at all.. How do you know you are? When you open your app tray, is there a little ninja app that's in there?

Yeah I do.

Hmmm.. I think you should try to reroot your Droid, there is apps that can do it for you now, easy root, and universal androot. I'd try that, and if that don't fix the problem, reflash the Rom.

Well, Easy Root claims the phone is already rooted

Sometimes that app glitches. Try the other one.

I am having the same identical issues immediately after downloading bb v.4.

Just flash the superuser update.zip. That should fix the issue

[APP] Superuser 2.3.2.1 - Now on the Market [2010-08-15] - xda-developers

Thanks for the advice. Downloading that app allowed me to get my super user permission back. I am getting a few force closes now and then but glad its working better.
