Hi,

All other apps that require root seem to request it - NoFrills CPU doesn't and consequently offers me no option other than to close the app. Just says "...Root access requires..." - without the usual dialogue affording me the chance to grant it.

Anyone else seen this?

Trying to get a little more life out of my Galaxy S6 by trying a few tweaks.

Thanks...

Go into the super user app and see if it shows up there. If it does, grant it root from there.

I can't see an option to manually add any apps in the SU App...??
I did not say there was any.
I only asked to go inside the app and see if no frills is there with a root denied entry.

Maybe you can set default access to granted. This means that any app will get root access without asking you for permission.

thanks, but tried that too - so all apps requiring root are granted it automatically....still asks for root when I start it up.

I did try another app that required root access (can't recall what it was though) and it said that SU wasn't in the expected directory???

Is that any help?

It may cause the problem. How did you root?

By the way, why don't you simply try another app. Kernel adiutor for example. It does the same stuff as no frills, maybe it does it even better.

Flashed CF-Root

Yeah you're right, using CPU Tuner, seems to do the job. Also installed Xposed and using Amplify with Greenify and I have to say I have noticed a MASSIVE difference already today

Thanks for your feedback as ever!
