Hello
I have a problem with my phone. I tried to install a custom recovery (I've failed) and when it reboot it was like on the first time but with one more thing : superuser.apk. The problem is : superuser doesn't work and I can't uninstall it. The phone isn't rooted anymore. I tried with Super One Click Root and with z4root. With SOCR, the software can't install the files required because the phoen doesn't have space left and when I've verified, there is only 60Ko in the system partition of the phone's memory. I don't have rw permissions on the files so I can't delete files which take a lot of memory (it's a zip image of the prime rom which stayed in the file since the first time I tried to install it).
Do you have an idea for me to root the phone or uninstall superuser and delete files ?
I rooted my phone using GingerBreak, but can't install Busybox. Downloaded it from market but it never finishes installation, saying there's already another installation of busybox and immediately quits after. Any ideas how to install it properly?
I think it means Gingerbreak also installed busybox and installing another instance is not necessary. It could also mean that there is a special version for your device
after rooting some programs asked me to install busybox, so it rather wasn't installed... and they're still asking now, so nothing changed
install root explorer
create folder /system/xbin.change permissions to r/w
try again to install busybox
this work for me
Hi all. As flashing SuperUser via CWM doesn't give an uninstall option, would it be better to install
it from the Play Store, or is flashing better for some reason.
Thanks.
I think flashing is better because:when you root your Tab,in addition to Superuser you inject a file named "su" in the folder "bin" of your OS,but if you install Superuser you must put that file there manually...but there is a way:in the flash able zip remove the Superuser APP,and after flashing install Superuser or SuperSU according to your OS.

Thank you.
I flashed CWM, and then installed SuperUser via Play, but it didn't work. I didn't know about the "su" file.
So I uninstalled SuperUser, and flashed the file I had on hand, which is SuperSU.
Worked like a charm and everything is working.
Got an "update available" message this morning, which was for SuperSU. Updated, and all is well.
Thanks again!
I succesfully updated my Samsung Galaxy S3 from Android 4.2.2. to 4.3 after rooting my Phone.
However, SuperSU doesn't work anymore, giving the message "If you upgraded to Android 4.3 you need to manually re-root".
I cannot find an answer in the forums here on XDA developmers.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,

I already tried that on my own. Didn't work. SU still tells me that I need to update the SU binary. Manual re root. And I AM rooted! I even wiped EVERYTHING and started over. no go. So, I'm guessing that I need to manual re root. I'll search for that binary where ever that is Oh, I went to the latest SlimBean build #2 for 4.3.1 after CM 10.1.3 and CM 10.2 refused to install on my d2usc. Now CM's Rom Manager won't work, SU doesn't work, anything that needs root access no work mahn! On the good side, everything else works fantastic, except PIE control. But I bet that has something to do with root access, so no great surprise there. I am enjoying every minute of these problems!
Rooted 4.3 and installed SuperSU

I had similar problem. Here is what I did -
1. Download CF-Auto-Root-d2att-d2uc-samsungsghi747 from autoroot.chainfire.eu.
2. Unzip
3. Use ODIN in the package to root.
4. Install ROM Manager.
5. Install SuperSU(Chainfire) from Play Store.
6. Open SuperSU and update SU binary. I saw a message to disable KNOX. I did it:highfive:
7. Install CWM Touch.
Then I installed other apps that need SU - Triangle Away, Titanium Backup. These apps worked fine for me. I went ahead and froze bloatware.

if you have supersu or super user already than just download update-supersu from http://download.chainfire.eu/370/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.80.zip and flash it through the recovery mode( custom recovery preferred).
xprivacy / reboot to recovery
In my case I was getting false alerts as xprivacy has blocked system access. (eg was with AdAway) Cleared those apps in XPrivacy and all worked find then.
Also you can try to go into recovery and the try to reboot. You may get message to reinstate/fix SU.

You rock, I had re-rooted my updated Android 4.3 but my SuperSU was not usable anymore. Redownloaded it, allowed it to update SU Binary, disabling Knox, and viola! Root galore

that fixed it for me..thanks :good:
Tried all these steps on the new 4.3 MK6 ROM. Does not work for me. I cant find the Root access option itself in developer options. I already tried flashing CF-Autoroot multiple times after factory reset, using odin. I CWM still says binaries outdated and SuperSU doesn't work work even after updating from play store. Later i tried flashing supersu via the recovery mode. Still no success. Any suggestions?
Edit:
Another factory reset and flash did it. I don't know how. But it is fixed now.
By following your step, my superuser icon is gone...

I know this is an old problem and has been answered many times, i have read all thepossible ways to fix it and i have tried, over and over but I'm missing something.
Please help.
I rooted with Supersu, it worked for 2days then stopped. Now all the root apps can't work and i have tried everything to make it work, to no avail. Here is a copy of my Root hecker:
Root access not properly configured or granted.
Superuser Application Status
Installed: SuperSU by Chainfire - version 2.46
System Files Status
Standard Location
Command: ls -l /system/xbin/su:
Result: -rwxr-xr-x root root 66916 2015-04-17 00:03 su
Analysis: Root access IS correctly configured for this file! Executing this file can grant root access! Root user ownership is present and setuid attribute is not present.

Non-Root Shell User
Setting stored in /default.prop and configured as: ro.secure=1
Additional: System Environment PATH Status
System Environment PATH: /sbin /vendor/bin /system/sbin /system/bin /system/xbin
_----------------------
So my device is rooted, but i don't have permission. Tried to copy .su file from xbin to bin, not possible.
Uninstalled reinstalled, unrooted rerooted, reinstalled SuperSu from playstore.
Made sure no double superuser programs running.
Got rid of Knox.
Tried to custom install Supersu update, says invalid certificate.
I believe if i can copy the .su file in \xbin to \bin the permissions wil be there. Bought Rootbrowser but error when copying. Or give permission on file SetUID.
Can't run Bootbox cause didn't install before root stopped working. Also Titanium backup stopped working now.
Any ideas how to fix? Don't want to factory reset. Can't be to difficult to fix.
PS. If this post is i wrong place please advise where itshould be.
Thanks
