[Q] updating SU binary - HTC Desire X

I downloaded Titanium backup but when I started it says "Your phone is not rooted" I go to SuperSU but it says you have to update Su binary through recovery...so how I am supposed to do that, where should I go and what to do to get my SuperSU updated ? I am using JB myONEdx.

Download the last version of supersu as .zip and flash though recovery

Failed to root? used methood 1

So I've used Method 1 off this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794
I could get to CWM touch and install the second zip and it looked like it was going to work, then after installation is complete I went to reboot the system.
Reboot was good and I looked in application draw and saw Superuser, But yet when I opened the app it came up with
"There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it.This is a problem!"

1)try updating superSu app from store and see.
2)else try installing 'SuperUser' app from stores and see
Ok I've updated SuperSU but yet again I've been given the same error message.
I've also tried install busybox, but its telling me that it can verify If i'm rooted or not.

Flash this through the stock recovery or CWM:
http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
It'll install the binary and Superuser.apk for you. You just need to install Busybox after.

Ok So I've flashed the zip now,
But yet again when I reboot I get the same message when I open SuperSU that I don't have the right binaries and when I try to install busybox It again can't verify.
Next time, better post in corresponding thread as i do not monitor other forums.
What phone do you use?
What ROM?
What kernel?
Have you rooted before with another method / custom kernel?

Ok,
I have a GT-19100
I use ICS 4.0.3
I have the stock kernel.
and I've only used method one of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28178105
and what nicholas1520 has given me, none working.
Try the unroot script then root again. If nothing works, try an alternative kernel like cfroot or Siyah. Strange, you never never rooted before? I have doubt. Some leftovers in /system from a previous root. Wipes and rom flash in odin does not wipe /system

When I tried to use the unroot zip I got a message like invalid signiture or the like, and yes I've never rooted before I've only owned the phone for about a week and your method was the first one I've tried

You will never get signature error in cwm. You do it from stock recovery. Read the guide...

I was so ignorant, I diddn't read it properly.
I've unrooted through the zip.
Lets try this again
You flashed the zip I've posted in the stock recovery?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Yea I did but when I flashed it I diddn't unroot from previous, So possibly there is some confliction.
Maybe I could try flashing through cwm touch?
Of course, these zip files all need to be flashed in cwm, not stock recovery

Lost root access (solved)

I lost root access, probably when flashing cubed kernel or Hatka ROM, where can I download and install the su binary? I assume that will suffice? I'm using TWRP for flashing.
Many thanks.
Edit: reinstalled 3.1.3 superuser zip from TWRP.
For those that don't know what to flash, this su package will fix it, just flash it when you don't see root with a new rom and you're golden.

[Q] CWM not sticking since the latest official update

It appears that CWM cannot be retained in the newest official update. (just an assumption) Some people reported to have successfully installed CWM thru odin but when they go to recovery, they were back to stock. What seems to be the issue here? Is there any work around?
Maybe the phone is reflashing stock recovery by itself during boot.
I don't know if it will work, but I usually root my phone first and then I install CWM via terminal emulator, using dd as root:
# dd if=/sdcard0/recovery of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Try a new update to the cwm and after that flash a custom rom such as JaspHD or PONLEWA after that your query might be solved...

Root access

I updated my supersu to v 2.00 and after update it said su binary needs to update.. So I chose update using cwm... Phone rebooted into recovery.. when it came back and I opened supersu app... It still said update su binary.. So I uninstalled the updates... And rebooted the phone.. Now my phone has been unrooted and supersu app disappeared... I tried using framaroot app.. It shows success.. But after reboot supersu app doesn't appear and root checker pro is still showing no root access.. Please help. Am on project doge Rom with kash kernel v 2.7... Cwm 6.0.4.4 modded by carliv.. Should I reinstall the Rom?

help!! how to manually install updates

Recently i got a softwre update(43.68 Mb) on my stock rooted Galaxy S Duos s7562. after I have downloaded the update it asked to update now or later.. when accepted to install now, It swittched off and opened in cwm recovery and said failed to verify signature of file.. istallation aborted.
-in which I disabled signature verification.. but after a few sec "signature check disabled" msg pops up..
does it mean I can flash the update file manually after moving it from ( /cache/ ) to my sdcard?? or it will cause any problem???
help guys!
The ota wont install because you have a custom recovery. Try to flash a stock recovery back and take the ota again.

That I can figure but signature check is disabled then why not installing.. and Can I just take the downloaded OTA update from /cache/ and install it in recovery?
I think you can, but if you can download the ota from xda and then move the zip over to the sd card that would be best. Also, I think the zip verification has to do with md5 hashes, and not with whether or not the ota will install. It may also be failing because of your modified system.

You could always stick the OTA on your hard drive from /cache/ and use adb sideload <file>
