Remove the "PLEASE ROOT YOUR DEVICE FIRST" notification #73

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Please remove the "PLEASE ROOT YOUR DEVICE FIRST !!!" popup upon changing 
settings. Since root is not required for using it for port forwarding only.

Or show it only on first lanch and not subsuquent launchs.

Another idea is to only show the root notification upon enabling features that 
require root.

Please remove this message! ssh-tunnel is a nice tool, but this message is 
terrible.

Thank you.

You should make sure your phone has been rooted before using this app. 
Otherwise, i suggest you to use connectbot instead and it can provide 
more.features with custom port forwarding.

The problem is that Connectbot dosen't let you open a tunnel before you have 
opened a terminal session with the server.
And if your user account does not have terminal access but only tunneling 
access, then its only SSHtunnel that works.

Why not place all items that require root in a separate submenu, and then show 
the notification when accessing that submenu?

I agree with the opener, please reopen this issue and consider an option to 
disable that warning. I use your app with Firefox and it works fine without 
root. Why should I open a terminal with ConnectBot when I don't need it?
