So since I've upgraded to 4.3 I can't get root access. I'm using Hasoon2000's toolkit and am unlocked and have a custom recovery installed. I tried to flash many different versions of SuperSU, but end up getting an error message saying there is:
1 No su binary,
2. It needs to be updated (normal/recovery-but doesn't work)
AND
3. If you upgraded to 4.3 recently, you need to re-root
How can I fix this?
I need root badly to restore with titanium!
Also can anyone link or recommend an ad Oct app that works on the One and actually blocks ads. Thanks!

Try Superuser instead of SuperSU. You might be trying to root with a old version of SuperSU. You need version 1.80
Go to the supersu website and download the 1.86 version. It's the latest.

I updated to the latest SU through the Play Store App SuperSU. Now none of my root apps work. When I open SU it says binaries need to be updated, but it won't update them through the app. I have to reboot into TWRP, but I don't have the latest binaries. And had no luck finding them.
Any one else have this issue?
Any suggestions?
What kind of ROM are you on? If AOSP, you go into developer options and make sure root is enabled there, too? (I Dont know if sense has dev option, I don't use that crap lol).

Stock ROM with S-On. Do not have the latest software update.
What happens when you're prompted to boot into recovery to update the binary? Also, have you checked your settings in the SuperSU app to make sure that you don't have it set to deny permissions to root apps?

If I boot into recovery, it does nothing. And I know my settings were set ask for permission for root apps. But I can't even check my settings now because everytime I open SuperSU it prompts me to update the binaries & if you say cancel, the app simply closes.
Look through the thread in the link below. You may need to re-flash the SuperSU zip in recovery. Normally, TWRP will detect that your phone isn't rooted and give you the option to install the SuperSU app. Not quite sure what's going on in your case:what:

You're in good hands with fin. Wish I had more to add.
Is there a way to uninstall updates for superSU via settings/apps/all ?

You can uninstall the app but the su binary is still in place (ask me how I know since I just removed the app and still have root access). The su binary file is still installed in /system/xbin. I would think that flashing an updated SuperSU in recovery would just overwrite the older version, at which time the app could be re-installed.

Running CM11, with supersu pro.
- Installed SuperSU.
- Update Binaries via TWRP
- Restart Phone into Recovery (TWRP)
(because it doesn't do this automatically,for some reason)
- Once TWRP loads, it runs the script.
- Restart Phone
- Open SuperSU
- Install as system app.
- Icon disappears
- Play Store, download SuperSU, reinstall as regular
Works for me. Not sure why it has to be like that, though, but...not complaining!

Yeah I'll try that. Before I saw this I tried reflashing SU from the EVO Root files and flashed a different SU app instead and now I have 2 different SU apps so I'm a do a wipe and restore of my Nandroid then flash the updated SuperSU.
Had the same problem.
Thanks for the help. After the restore & Updated SU flash, it's back running normal. Actually running better. Thanks again.
When I installed SuperSU, it did *not* uninstall the older Superuser app.
1) Is that a problem? (Superuser keeps bugging me that the binary is out of date)
2) How do I get rid of Superuser without screwing anything else up?
RootChecker says I still have root, so I guess SuperSU is installed properly...
Uninstall the app, or remove with Titanium Backup.

Hello!
My phone (Cherry Mobile Bubble Android 2.3.5) was rooted before through Mobogenie's One Click Root. I don't have any problem my apps gaining root access. But i can't do software update, so i thought that's because of being rooted. So I did permanent root at SuperSU settings, and I have successfully updated my phone. But when I rooted my phone again, I can't gain root access through SuperSu. It always shows "Installation failed". I do have an update zip file on my sd cards root. But to no avail.
Please help. I'm noob regarding on this.
You cant just install SuperSU and expect it to work. You need to use your 1 click tool again. Or another full rooting method.
When you unrooted the binaries that was root were deleted.

In addition, I already did uninstalling and re-installing superSU. And I have also tried to use Superuser or any other superuser app, but nothing happens. I already did a factory reset, but still no change.

I already did that. I've rooted it again through one click root, and it says i am rooted. But SuperSu says, installation failed. While superuser says, it can't gain root access.
I have lost root access before when I updated SuperSu, I can't remember what i did then. But i was able to get back root access.
If you have a custom recovery superSU has the option to flash the correct one manually.

No, i don't have any custom recovery
Is there other way for me to flash the correct one?
Try Vroot, its another one click root method. I used it on my Note 3 and installed superSU afterwards. One downside is it's chinese, so its hard to read lol.

I've been using this LG G3 for a few weeks without any issue. Bought it used and have been happy with it. Getting down to business tinkering I downloaded Stump Root and SuperSu. When I fired up Stump Root grind was already greyed out and it said my device is rooted. If it's rooted why am I getting this screen from SuperSu. My G3 is at 4.4.2. Trying to research before posting is there no root currently for 4.4.2? I'm confused why it says I'm rooted if I'm having this issue with SuperSu.

This happened to me yesterday after I had flashed a rom and I was stuck for hours till I had the brilliant idea of flashing super su again and it fixed just download and flash in recovery and when it reboots you have to download supersu from the play store and the first time you open it, it will ask if you want to update binary normal or using recovery I clicked normal and fixed. Hope it helps

Did you flash the superuser zip I linked?

Are You On stock zv6? If your On stock zv6, you have to use flashtool to go to zv4 so You can use stump. There is no root for zv6 from stock, unless that has changed.
Sent from my LGLS990 using XDA Free mobile app
Have you checked to see if twrp recovery is on your phone? If it is flash the SuperSU zip linked a posts before mine. If not check and see if your on ZV6 or ZV4. If your on ZV6 you need to flash tool back to ZV4. If your on ZV4 and it doesn't let you root it's because your phone was already rooted then the person you bought it from unrooted it so you will still have to revert back to ZV4 then use stumproot.
Once your phone has been rooted one time by stump root and then unrooted (probably what happened in your case since you bought it used) you will have to revert back ZV4 using the flashtool and return to stock. Then you can use stumproot and then use bump to put a recovery on your phone. Your phone has to be completely stock in order to use to use stumproot.
Thanks guys. It's because the phone has been updated ZV6. I will look into using the flashtool to get back to ZV4.
I just RUUd (couldn't OTA) and installed SuperSU via zip from recovery, but now I'm getting the message "There is no SU Binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it."
Any ideas?
thanks!

That was, indeed, the solution. For some reason, the link I found took me to the 1.94 version (too old, I guess).
Once I grabbed the latest, it worked.
Does anybody know how to root the note 3 sprint with lollipop using the the base band OC5, please help with a step by step guide.
thanks
Update: I made my way to root I combine two methods to do it, thanks to all of you.
Use the latest method by chainfire for kitkat. That's how I did it.
If you dont care about knox, I would just odin latest twrp and flash supersu zip. Super easy.
Sent from my SM-N900P using XDA Free mobile app
Could you elaborate on this latest method of rooting by chainfire?
Use CF Autoroot from chainfire. You can find it here. I used this method and it worked perfectly.
I heard Chainfire method isn't approved by XDA, can a veteran confirm?

What two methods did you combine?
I'm on OC5 and I was thinking of using towelroot. If that doesn't work, I would then try Odin flashing to NH7, then towelroot. I don't want to trip Knox since I have Sprint's insurance. If those methods don't work, then I would consider Chainfire.
If I trip knox, can't I just flash back to stock to reset the counter?
The easiest way to gain root is to flash a recovery, twrp or philz. Then flash a superuser zip file. Then clear cache/dalvik (should really be called runtime cache now)
I'm having an issue regaining root on stock 5.0 (previously rooted). I rooted with CF via Odin but found Supersu conflicted with one of my other apps. I used the labeled option in Supersu to uninstall/clean up to switch to another super user app. I tried ChainsDD's app first but was unable to get the binary to update (even with the update fixer so or odin flashable). I then tried Clockworkmod's app and experienced a similar issue but lost root all together. Since then I've tried: Reflashing cf auto (causes phone to freeze on sprint logo at boot)
Flashing Supersu update.zip 2.46 and beta 2.49 made for 5.x firmwares (same issue as cf)
So far the only way I've been able to get the phone to boot after attempting to root is by odin flashing the OC5 update again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Instead of using cf, just

pull battery
odin twrp
boot
power off
Boot to recovery
Flash supersu
Wipe cache/dalvic
Reboot
Profit!

I'm currently using the latest twrp. I believe it's 2.8.6.1. I tried flashing the Supersu zip and clearing both caches. Same result.

Well I had to use the old root the cf auto root and then install a custom recovery and then flash the super su I had to do the auto root part because the custom recovery it wasn't installed it until I had root access
