Fails to request root access #6

Closed segin closed 9 years ago

segin commented 11 years ago

On my phone (running CM10), Auto starts fails to request root access and simply attempts to disable/enable anyways, which obviously fails, and annoyingly tells me I need root access when I most certainly do.

Because to my knowledge there is no absolutely reliable way to determine if root is available, Autostarts simply tries different ways, and then gives you the failure message afterwards.

A log capture would be interesting to see why the execution (via su) doesn't work.

I intend to try to reproduce this in the emulator, but it appears I have to compile CM myself to get a 10 version running in the emulator: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Goldfish_Info

Closing until failures resurface.

You may wish to consider using RootTools. I use it in a project myself.
