Default Superuser update

Sup guys. This place seems a little dead without any new rom releases lol. Just went to the market to check for some new apps and updates and saw that superuser was available for update.

Kinda weird but I did it and opened the new app. It has a slightly different interface, something like the new market except without the lags. Then it told me that I had to do some updates and I just allowed it blah blah blah. It installed some new software and a custom busybox.

I find that the v6 supercharger works better with this busybox and the other new root stuff lol.

Go check it out!

I upgraded to 3.0 and saw all kinds of problems. Couldn't update the binaries for some reason and lost all permissions and could get su access back. Reverted in TB to okd su and ut was fine. Since then chains updated it again and everything works fine now. Just an fyi.

@Mchlbenner Like your new avatar. Funny.

Hey, since we have these new ROMs going and there was some issues before with the Superuser.apk updating the binaries, Chains has created and update fix in the market also. You update the superuser app and then it either works or says the binary didn't update or the app itself couldn't update. Just go to the Update Fix app install and run it and then try to reinstall the Superuser.apk.

If you are flashing in between ROMs daily then I wouldn't worry about it until you settle on one, but if you do find one you like and want to run it for some time, then you'll probably have to eventually update it and this is how.
