Phone is rooted but has no SU application and can't access SU command on adb shell? All this time, I thought that once I've rooted my phone, it means that I will also have SU access to it. This is true for the first device I rooted. When I rooted it, a SuperUser application appeared on my phone. I was also able to use the command su on the adb shell.

However, just recently, I tried to root a different phone. After rooting the phone, I check my applications for the SuperUser app but it's not in the applications. And so I downloaded the SuperUser app on the market. But when I opened it, it says, there is no SU binaries installed on the phone. Also, when I inputted su on the adb shell, it can't determine what is su.


What could be the problem?
How can I gain SU privilege?
I thought that once a phone is rooted, it is automatic to have an SU application or at least access to the su command. Am I wrong with my assumption?
How can I use the su command?
What is the real state of the phone I rooted? Does it mean the phone is not really rooted? Or is it still rooted?


Thanks!
Your device isn't rooted at all. Without su binary, you can't assume command as root.
