[Q] Root access occasionally not sticking in Lollipop? topic

SOCIALIZE IT ⇨


This is a bit of a weird one, so I wanted to see if anyone else had seen this.

I am running a bog-standard DevEd M8 (converted from AT&T) with Lollipop 5.0.1. It is S-off, bootloader unlocked, but not running a custom recovery. I went back to stock after rooting the phone. Most of the time, everything works fine, but sometimes after a reboot root access doesn't work. I usually notice this when AFWall fails to update the firewall tables. However, a subsequent reboot usually fixes the problem.

Not sure what is up with that, but it seems like there is some sort of race condition during startup. It is weird that I almost always get root back on a reboot, though there have been a few occasions where it took two reboots.

I don't restart that often, but it is kind of an annoyance. Enough that I'm seriously considering bailing and switching to a different ROM, but if there was an easy fix I would rather not have to setup my phone again.
