Root Problems with apps that list processes

[wooky69]

I'm having an odd issue with a couple of apps that are supposed to list running apps and their CPU use etc. One is System Monitor Lite and another Watchdog Lite. If I install them on a standard Galaxy Note 2 they work correctly. On my GS5 with CM 12.1 OS neither app seems able to list running apps. All other features of these apps work as they should.

What in CM could cause this to fail?
(I have posted this in the CM forum but not had a reply, just thought I'd pick some brains here too)


Thanks all
