Please help!! - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

] PLEASE HELP!!Su binary not installed and SuperSu cannot install it.
I have Xperia U awhich i had rooted with Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 withouth unlocking the bootloader.
Recently my phone failed to start at the screen got stucked on the Xperia logo so i had to repair the installation by updating the phone with ICS from update service.
After that my phone seems to be half rooted, it installs the root apps like SuperSu , busybox but it has lost the su binary files.
The SuperSu gives the error 'Su binary not installed and SuperSu cannot install it'. I know this is a common problem i searched a lot on it and the best solution i fiund was to flash the SuperSu zip file from Clockwork Mod recovery.
But i dont have CWM as i didnt unlock my bootloader while rooting and i tried to install it but it didnt get installed as there was no su binary.
I cant un-root my phone i cant re-root it. I have tried everything but nothing works.
Is there no way i can have root access again?

you will stuck at the boot image cause u need to unlock boot loader, for the root, you need to aware that the ICS 4.0.1.a.0.283 easier to root but 4.0.1.b.0.112 and above most root software cant do the root, u better install those rom to root, and after you root, just install x-part and u will install the CWM easily through the apps, hope is help for you

Sorry i cant understand what you are trying to say. My problem is i am already rooted and i can install SuperSu but it gives error that su binary is not installed. I tried to unroot and re-root from 'Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18' but the process gets stuck midway and nothing changes.
The only possible solution i found to install su binary was from CWM but i dont have cwm and there is no way to install cwm without supersu permission.
Is there any other way to install su binary?
Or is there any other way to install cwm without it needing su binary?

It gets stuck at the reboot stage. It doesn't reboot the phone when i restore the Root Me file.
When i rebooted it manually after waiting for a long time, it corrupted my phone with icons turning black and phone slowing down. So i had to repair the insatllation again with update service.
If i re-root it with some other method or maybe with 'Bin4ry v31', do you think it will work?
.

Please help! Anyone?

Not a pro here. but my advice. you should flash your stock firmware and root again. if you have unlocked bootloader. you can flash kernels with recovery to install supersu

Cant Root My Phone

Hi I have a A520L Alcatel Pop Star Nova Lte. I had try many root method like Kingo Root, King Root, Towelroot, Framaroot and Wondershare MobileGo, all those cant root my phone successfully. Some are them success rooted but after 4 to 5 minutes I check "root checker" it says I dont have root access. Sometime on other way I go to stock recovery mode, it doesnt have "apply to sd card or external" which is sucks that I cant go there to zip any files or su binary update in order to root. It only have wipe data and wipe cache. I cant download CWM or any kind of app to flash it because I dont have root permission yet. Can anybody help to root my phone? Im running 4.4.4 kitkat.

you shouldn't need root to flash a custom recovery via adb in your phones bootloader.
I don't know what firmware you are on or much about your phone, but if you are on android 5.0+ you may want to find a kernel dev who can take your stock boot.img and make it permissive and implement the su binaries into the kernel. then you could flash a custom recovery then flash an updater script with the new kernel and su.apk
sorry I'm not a kernel dev or I would help you to do it.
I dont know whats firmware is but I know its running 4.4.4 kitkat.

Z2 SuperSU binary and next step

Hello alI, I need some help and advice. I have rooted my Sony Xperia Z2 D6503 (5.1.1) using Kingroot. I have installed SuperSU and it requires a TWRP or CWM recovery to update the binary. Where can I find the right one for my phone? The ROM manager app can`t find one. Also a tutorial would be helpful on how to install it. Now, my next question is: can I flash ROMs, install themes, enjoy all the other things of a rooted phone without a CWM recovery? Could you also guide me through my next steps after rooting? Any suggestions will be helpful and appreciated.
Super su doesn't require recovery to update the binaries... There is an option (when the su app says that the binaries need to be updated) that allows you to try and install the binaries via installing them and then simply rebooting your phone.
Additionally, search for some sort of recovery as 99,99% of the ROMs are meant to be installed via recoveries.
If you want to do something more than just rooting your phone you have to use a recovery.

Help with Unrooting Xperia M4

Hello all,
I followed this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/root-t3421932
And I sucessfully installed TWRP and rooted my phone. Everything worked fine so far, I was able to use root and access the custom recovery all normal.
Now I come across a discrepancy, I wanted to update the new PokeGo app by following this tutorial, to install in a rooted phone: (the new update blocks access to all rooted/jailbroken phones)
http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/09/11/guide-play-pokemon-go-0-37-rooted-android-magisk/
But I found a situation when I want to uninstall root, in SU, I get an error of uninstallation failed... I tried all the options and I can't seem to revert root. Another situation is, when I try to boot up the custom recovery, It gets stuck in the white sony bg logo and it doesn't boot up. I tried to flash recovery img again by flashboot and it didn't work... Now I'm stuck with no recovery or a way to make a backup of everything..
So the question is, and i guess i know the answer already but I will ask anyways, is there any way to unroot this with flashtool? I don't want to lose any of the current phone settings/data, I was maybe thinking I could just reflash the FW with flashtool, but I wouldn't know if i should be ticking all the boxes or just the kernel one for this.
Anyways, any help/ideas are appreciated.
flash the ftf of the build number you were using at the time and then untick flash user data
Install xposed and next install module BSD mod tools to hide root
Flash stock boot.Img, and unroot it with SuperSU
