Do not update supersu via playstore! - Sony Xperia M4 Aqua

Hello,
I updated SuperSU via the Play Store on my E2353, and now it doesn't update the Binaries, giving an error message "The Installation failed, Please Reboot and try again.", while rebooting gives the same message, so DO NOT update via Play Store.
I will try flashing it via TWRP, so update will be up soon
**Update**
Tried Flashing the zip file via TWRP from Chainfire, but no change to the the Version.
Then I flashed the Boot.img (from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/stock-xperia-m4-aqua-xperia-m4-aqua-t3422263)
And I was back with the working version.

Same problem, after installing of new version of Super SU binaries won't be updated. If you find solution, please share it.

Well...My E2303 LB 5.0 LP get Su 2.65 (? something close), after rooting with toolkit that we all can find in this m4 xda forum, and after updating from GP store to 2.76 app told me to wait a moment, i've instaled binaries trough app.. Couple of sec and it was don, reboot, soft and root is working fine

Problem is with version 2.78 and Marshmallow . So after update to this version, few days after, I can't find solution and decide to uninstall it and then after reboot everything work correct again with version 2.76. To prevent future problems, in Google play I disable automatic update.

SuperSU binary "Installation Failed" Error Fix

This is the scenario that i have encountered during rooting my htc one XL for fun. But i have encountered a problem of SuperSU binary "installation failed" when trying to update the binary.
Here i am going to share the solution that have been tried out accidentically.
Premises:
Device : HTC One XL ( i think other device may also counter this problem too when they trying to root with the ZIp version SuperSU apk.
Device's bootloader is unlocked (HTC required, i dont think samsung need this step)
recovery mode Clockworkmod is installed (i think all devices need this mod in order to install apk in the sd_card)
SuperSU apk is installed in recovery mode by install app in the sd_card
Consequence:
The superSU is installed successfully in the phone, you can see the app located in the home screen.
When you try to click in the app, it prompt it requires to update some binary files of the phone. however it will just return "Installation Failed".
Your root access is not stable.
For example:
You might contain root access by using root browser (on google play)
But you couldn't "su" in the linux terminal emulator (on google play)
Also you couldn't "su" by using android shell in the android sdk tools's .adb shell
Solution:
Below is the steps i performed and it is worked.
Update the latest version SuperSU in the google play
Afterwards, it will prompt the binary update screen again
Choose the Txxx/CWB instead of Normal
My device cannot automatically boot up the recovery mode, thus i manually started the recovery mode
binary will be updated when you go in recovery mode
Importance Note:
Actually I am not success in point 5 (binary will be updated when you go in recovery mode).
It means that the binary doesn't update when SuperSU is still the latest version (updated on google store).
and if you have also encountered this circumstance. reboot in the phone again, in the latest version of SuperSU, selected update binary by Txxx/CWB, and then uninstall the latest version of SuperSU by normal apps uninstallation (you can never able to uninstall the old version SuperSU in the phone normally because its installed in the recovery mode).
Now you can boot into the Recovery mode, it will update the binary automatically, And you can grant the actual root access for your phone after reboot the phone again.
Do you think this will work for the Note 3 running 4.4.2 ? for some reason as of now on verizon note 3 there seems to be no fix for the supersu not updating binary on the new kitkat 4.4.2 im rooted using towelroot i let it update the binary once and i never opened it again to avoid it asking me to update again then failing ... so to avoid uninstall and reinstall i just let it do its magic once and never touch it again... it will update the first run but once you reboot .. youre f you also want to make sure you delete the file su in system/xbin/su then uninstall and install fresh to get this to update you binary .. but you can never open it again or it will ask to update and fail ... however all apps asking to grant permisson will be granted so apon screen pop up and your prompt to allow .... but i am however going to try this just dont know if i should choose the txxx/CWB as apose to normal
No Luck to me too.
I did what the top comment said but Super SU still says it needs to update binaries. I am using Version 2.65.

[Q] problem for updating superSU

Supersui can't update my superSU Binar.
I iinstall another version still can't update..
Please help
I had the same problem with 2 Z Ultras. In both cases EasyRootTool didn't finish it's job properly on the first run. The batch file stopped while 'cleaning up...'. On both phones Titanium Backup ran without issues, but several other errors occurred, one being SuperSU not updating. I just used EasyRootTool once respectively three times again, until it finished the job properly.
And don't forget to install Xposed, the best software for rooted phones
Root your device again with towelroot and try re-install supersu from chainfire! and then reboot and after that update the binaries!

SuperUser/Rom Issues

First post and not sure where to post it.
I have a Elephone p5000 - came with pre loaded rooted when i received the phone - using android 4.4.2
There was a recent update and it broke the root using SuperUser saying Binary error and to update bla bla
I tried a lot of stuff and never got root to work, it says my phone is rooted but because SuperSU doesn't work root doesn't work. I can't even un root it .. unless factory wipe etc
I've tried to:
Automatic update binary in SuperSu
Attempted to manually update binary
push SuperSU update to the phone
Push a different ROM to the phone and update it but i cant select the zip to update or it aborts the update.
End line I need your help in getting my phone rooted, being detailed as in providing download links and command lines will be useful, I do have ADB and Fastloader installed plus the P5000-CWMRecovery (Which didn't do anything)
P5000 after update root problem
I had a same problem after the update.. I try to reboot and install supersu binary, but it failed.. But somehow my root applications are working after the reboot.. I don't know why..

xt1524 root on new 6.0 update

hi, i recived the 6.0 update OTA today
my phone was on 5.0.2, bootloader unlocked, supersu rooted
using supersu option i removed the root, this to be able to install OTA (leaving supersu result in "update error")
updated to 6.0 succesfully
downloaded lastest stable supersu v2.65
downloaded twrp-surnia-3.0.2-r1
booted twrp without flashing (i don't want to install twrp) do this way in 5.0 and 5.0.2 adn worked
flashed supersu
phone stay at "warning screen"
to restore the phone i downoaded the 6.0 zip and flasched back the "sparsechunk.x" files
how to get the root back again in 6.0??
thanks.
exactly the same here, even with supesu 2.71 beta
You have to install the superSU v2.62-3 (it installs systemless mode) OR in the terminal of the TWRP enter "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu" (without the quotes) and then flash the version you want, in order to force the systemless install. I still recommend just use v2.62-3.
Supersu zip v2.62-3 and try: http://download.chainfire.eu/751/Sup...1211162651.zip
thinks @basili
I finally managed
That worked for me too
how
thanks it worked fo rme too
simply install TWRP 3.0.2r1 then supersu.2.62.3
I have a question. I installed the SuperSU 2.62.3 like its recommended in post #3, but Google Play shows that there is an update. Can I update it safely now?
i have my bootloader unlocked and everything ive followed every detail and it said flashed recovery was successful but how do i access twrp im only getting stock recovery plz any advice will be greatly appreciated thx in advance for your help

Yes
I had the same problem. When SuperSU asks you about updating binaries, hit cancel. Then go to SuperSU's settings, find "Cleanup" section and hit reinstall. This should reverse SuperSU to 2.76. After that there should be no more binaries error. Don't install 2.78 update. I've done these steps and root and SuperSU works fine.
