[Q] Cannot Get Use Root on cm-11.0-jewel 11-19-13

[the3seashells]

Hello,

After getting s-off and updating my hboot, I was able to install the 11-19-13 version of cm-11.0-jewel (kit-kat 4.4) without any problems. Everything seems to work well, except for any applications requesting root. If an app, such as Titanium Backup, requests root, the request doesn't fail, but, it also never succeeds. The application hangs and the rest of the phone gets really slow. The only way to fix the problem is to reboot.

Under "System" > "Superuser", I have set "Automatic Responses" to "Automatically allow new requests" and have set "Superuser Access" to "Apps and ADB" but the problem persists.

Any thoughts?

In case anyone else runs into this, I was able to fix this by flashing "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.75.zip" It took a couple of times to boot, and then I had to manually run SuperSU a few times, but, after that, it has worked like a charm.
