So the other day I installed an app and it didn't request root access, so I dismissed the problem thinking it was a problem with the app.
Today I installed the Sixaxis Pair Tool app (an app that had worked previously) and it too did not request root access via superuser. I figured that was a bit odd seeing as how I had used it before so I went over to ES File Explorer, turned off root access and turned it back on to see what would happen and it told me that I couldn't do it (basically permission denied). So I thought that I might try to unroot and reroot my event. I opened up SRS One Click Android Root v4.7 - Ultimate Root Release and tried to unroot my phone (since I had used this application to root it and unroot it before) and it gave me this:
9:06:17 PM - Starting ADB Server..
9:06:22 PM - Manufacturer: kyocera
9:06:22 PM - Model: Event
9:06:23 PM - Android Version: 4.0.4
9:06:23 PM - Build ID: IML77

9:06:23 PM - Chipset Platform: msm7630_surf
9:06:23 PM - Getting OffSets.. : 0x8003 0xaac3 (False)
9:06:25 PM - Checking Root access: True
----= Start UnRoot Process.. Please Wait =----
9:06:25 PM [+] Remounting /system Filesystem as R/W..
9:06:26 PM Error: Failed to remount filesystem
So I saw the error and thought, "Hey, maybe a factory reset will fix this." So I proceeded to factory reset my phone and tried again.
I tried again and got the same exact error so I booted my event into stock system recovery and proceeded to wipe the cache and factory reset again.
After I did so. I tried unrooting again and got the above message error.
Whenever I click root, it tells me that my device is already rooted, yet no app can get superuser access (no notification even pops up).
At this point I really have no idea what to do, seeing as I can't reroot as far as I know.
If anyone can help, that would be greatly appreciated.
