Stuck at superuser step of rooting, wiped OS, please halp

I've made a terrible mistake.
Unlocked the bootloader successfully then tried flashing superuser, then wiped all, then tried installing CM11
Apparently I never got root successfully and now the device has no ROM at all.
It won't write CM11 and I can't throw a stock rooter tmobile rom in the TWRP directory to try that.
"Error executing binary in zip"
did I just wreck the device?

You might try to run the RUU 5.14.531.11 of course it will wipe all of your data if you didn't save it before your issue. If you are S-ON, you will need to lock your bootloader after you successfully run the RUU you can unlock it again using your same unlock code.

Have you tried flashing another rom? Did you get the same error?
Yup
I had the same problem, have a look at my thread here.

SGP561 - Help installing recovery to root

I got a replacement Tab from sony and I'm having trouble rooting it with the updated firmware. Seems the only real way to do it is to have a custom recovery installed, however I am having trouble with that. When I try installing a recovery through fastboot flash command I get an error FAILED: Remote: Command not Allowed.
The installer version of XZDual just hangs at install.
Has anyone else on Verizon tab found any other ways of rooting after the latest update?

You have to downgrade firmware off 4.4.4 and root,
Got it working. I didn't know I had to have the unknown sources checked. Also I didn't realize I was plugged into a 3.0 port in the back of my PC, so that didn't help. Thanks for the help.
I have a Verizon Z2 LTE SGP561 with the latest update of 4.4.4 and i managed successfully to Root it with the latest KingRoot apk.
It was very easy - just download the KingRoot apk to your device , run it from the device and it will do the work.
After it will complete you will have KingRoot user which is the superuser app for permission, no need to install SuperUser of SuperSU.
I checked with root-checker to verify and indeed it was rooted.
even though the bootloader is locked you are rooted.
I managed to remove all Verizon bloatware apps.
You can find the latest KingRoot apk in the following link:

Thanks, I'll try this if I get another replacement device. This one has a dead pixel in it.

Supersu binary update fail on Asus zenfone C (Z007)

Hy guys, I'm a newbie here. I have a problem with updating superSU binary on my asus zenfone C (z007)
I have rooted my phone before, but recently the binary was outdated, I've tried updating it via CWM. Everything work just fine, but when I'm flashing the supersu binary 2.82 via adb, an error occur, it say:
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
Installation aborted
I've googling for days and all I found is many people said that the binary file is corrupted, I've tried re download a new binary file, and it's not corrupted. And I retry to flash it via adb, and again, the problem still the same.
Any suggestion for me? I would be very happy if anyone could help me to solve this Thnx!

TWRP Error while flashing RR v6 on my SGP321

Hello guys,
I have the SGP321 running on android 5.1.1. It is rooted with SuperSU and I installed TWRP via [NUT]'s XZDualRecovery. When I try to flash Resurrection Remix (same error with LineageOS 14.1 btw) the installation fails with error: execute updater binary in zip. Two lines above (but not in red text) it says that this rom is meant to be installed on a SGP321 (which I have) but my device is a [empty space]. I don't know if this has something to do with the mentioned error. A Google search led me to posts with the same error, but mostly on the OP One and the Moto G4. They say that you have to update the bootloader. Has anyone experienced the same problems with their Xperia TabZ and has found a solution to this?

Recovery 2.8.7.0 is not compatible with with the lastest custom firmwares like android 7.1.2 or 8.1.
To flash them successfully you need to flash recovery version at least 3.2.1.x to your device.

Good to know, thank you! How can I flash the newer version of TWRP? I tried to flash via Fastboot but get the error "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)". I think this is because Sony's devices don't have a recovery partition.

Use Rashr tool.
Download twrp.img from the link above. Flash it to recovery via Rashr and reboot. After you can enter it via Vol+ on boot.
Rashr says I need a FOTA kernel partition, how do I get that? Thank you for your help, hope that this was my last question
EDIT:
OK I tried different things with Rashr. I uninstalled XZDualRecovery with the flashable zip and flashed full stock rom 5.1.1 with Flashtool and rooted it again. I was not able to install the latest twrp by any means using Rashr.
I found another solution:
1. I installed (again) XZDualRecovery and booted into TWRP 2.8
2. I flashed the Marshmallow Version of Resurrection Remix (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...pment/rom-resurrection-remix-m-5-7-3-t3440876) --> This installed the CM-Recovery (Vol-) AND TWRP 3.2.1 (Vol+)
3. Booted into TWRP 3.2.1
4. Successfully flashed an Android 8.1 Rom
