What system version are you on and which version of CF Auto Root did you use? Do you have a custom recovery installed? If not, you should use Odin, not an app to install it. Once you have a custom recovery then you can just use that to install the SuperSU zip from Chainfire (same guy who does CF Auto Root).

There's your problem, rom manager can't install a recovery on a stock kernel, personally i wouldn't use rom manager at all. Just flash a cf-root kernel for your firmware and boot into recovery manually.
Thanks, i've done that and it works perfectly.
but then using cwm i've installed villain rom 3.0.
it's a good rom etc
but it seems like i havent got root after installing it.
none of the apps from market using root permission work.
for example chainfire 3D says i dont have root.
Any explanation for that?
Install Superuser from Market does say this in thread.

[Q] Does not have proper root

Hey guys,
I have an i9300, rooted with slimbeam installed. A few days ago I dropped my phone and the screen cracked and the display disappeared; so I got it replaced. When I turned my phone on again, it was stuck on the boot screen. So I fully wiped my phone and flashed slimbean again (as I already had the file on my external SD card). This got me passed the boot screen and my phone is working fine except it seems like I don't have proper root access. I downloaded a root checker and thats the message I got "Does not have proper root access" and when I run superSU it said "the su binary needs to be updated" so I click on update and I get a message saying " install failed. Reboot and try again" I reboot and tried again and same error
Anyone know what my best course of action would be?
EDIT: It also randomly keep rebooting.
Thanks a lot guys!
Cheers

i did flash superuser from the respective thread. When I run the root checker app I still get the "Sorry! This device does not have proper root access". When I run SuperSU it says "There is no SU binary installed and SuperS cannot install it. This is a problem! "
What do I do now? I was hoping flashing SuperSU would solve the problem.. but i guess that didnt work

My phone is giving me problems for root

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 T99L with 4.3 version.. I recently decided to try to root it (I rooted my old phone, but since this one was new i dint root it before) and its giving me headaches!
I rooted it with CF Auto Root for the same model, I followed instructions (using Odin to root), and when my phone resets, I think its KNOX or the system itself blocks SuperSU. This is another problem, I open SuperSU and the first thing it appears is ''There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it'' and then it closes and theres a notification that SuperSU got blocked by the security thing. PLEASE HELP!
Btw: I cant find stock for t99l

[Q] re-rooting of S3 I9300

I am using galaxy s3 I9300 since last 4 months. Last week i rooted this phone and very next day i upgraded it's android to 4.3. After that my supersu says that "there is no su binary installed and supersu cannot install it. this is a problem. if you just upgraded to android 4.3, your need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device." Then again i rooted my phone but now this time my supersu was not showing in all apps, i again rooted 2-3 times, but still my supersu was missing. Then i downloaded supersu form play store and installed.
Now my custom binary is 4 and SuperSu is still showing the same error (there is no su binary installed and supersu cannot install it. this is a problem. if you just upgraded to android 4.3, your need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device.)
I used Triangle Away.apk to reset the binary counts but this is also asking for root access and my supersu is not working...
Please help me in this..

Samsung Galaxy S II (GT-19100) Gingerbread | Rooted, but superuser not working

Hello peeps, evilbeef here!
So yea, I have rooted my phone a while a go I have used Odin v185
and I used Speed Kernel S2 K-2 -21 as the PDA file. I have found this on GalaxyS2 Root webpage
I have successfully rooted it, basically I have rooted so many phones using Odin. :laugh:But this one is different. I already have Superuser app (from google store) before I started rooting it. After I rooted it, my phone rebooted automatically. In the Startup, The phone has yellow triangle. My Phone works normally.
BUT THE PROBLEM IS, THERE IS NO REQUEST OF PERMISSION SHOWING, I ALSO USED ROOT CHECKER, IT IS NOT WORKING, IT SAYS ROOT ACCESS IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED. ALL OF THE APPS I DOWNLOADED THAT NEEDS ROOT PERMISSION ALSO DOESN'T WORK.
BUT ONE THING I AM WANDERING ABOUT IS THAT MY KERNEL VERSION CHANGED.
IT SAYS THAT: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #k2-21
But also when I go to recovery mode, I can flash CWM recovery automatically.
The only thing that doesnt work I think is the Superuser.
I also tried checking su binary vlegacy. I also try to check for updates but superuser keeps me forcing it to close.
I think I am only having issues with Superuser I think. How Can I fix this? Please Help
Uninstall supersu from you phone.
Download supersu from this link- https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/ Copy paste it into your SD card.
Boot into cwm recovery and install the supersu zip file you downloaded.
Thanks for the fast respond bro! I was thinking about the same thing tho, I just want to have confirmation from others if this thing would work! HAHAHAHAH thanks mate! :--------)
