WRT Coderus' excellent [**Aliendalvik Superuser** RPM](https://openrepos.net/content/coderus/aliendalvik-superuser), see and screenshots below for a **secure** configuration:> You must set in the **Superuser** app *Preferences --> Security --> Multi-user mode* to *User controlled* in order to enable it to properly manage Android apps, which request superuser rights. Also leave / set *--> Automatic response* on its default, i.e. *Prompt*.
You also must let the Superuser app start on AlienDalvik start-up by activating *Settings --> Apps --> Superuser --> Allow application background services to start on bootup*, otherwise it cannot capture and filter superuser (`su`) requests. Additionally, you may utilise the quick setup guide.
Note, that **Aliendalvik Superuser** *ONLY* works on Jolla 1 phones with its AOSP 4.1.2 based AlienDalvik.
