Hi Mates,
First of all sorry for my poor english, i am using Redmi Note 4 (Indian Qualcomm Sanpdragon version Version) running android version 6, i have successfully unlocked bootloader, rooted and installed TWRP in my phone, when i check the root status in root checker app it says SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED, after that i have installed Hide My Root app to hide my Su binary, there it throws a error message "cannot find su binary", this process i have tried when i was in stock ROM and now i am in linage rom 13 here with this custom rom also i am getting the same error message, i have installed un installed and again installed super su app somany times still i use to get same error eventhough i have flashed the latest super su zip and latest super su app.
I am very poor in this kind of techie works, i hope you masters people will post some solution for this error.
Thanks

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?
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.
I keep getting a prompt for Updateing SU binarys but I don't know how to with out a recovery does any one know how? Or if we even can yet?
If you're running SuperSU, then it should give you the option to update an out of date su binary when it is detected.
Thanks that was the issue I had a different SU app
Hello
I have the same problem but when I click on update it takes some minutes and them sais failure updating the binarys, so now what I'm supposed to do, I have s Sony Xperia M4 aqua android 6.0.1 an I installed super Su pro apk trying to solve this issue.
i had rooted my device and installed ZCX TWRP recovery successfully few months back, i got MIUI OTA update and and flashed the full ROM as you have suggested and after then root access was working fine. But last week i received another MIUI 8.2 OTA update and i updated the OTA via updater app successfully and my root access was working fine, but when i once rebooted the device after the update i lost the root access, when i opened the Supersu app i got the msg "su binary cannot be found and it cannot be installed you have to re-root your device" i again flashed the inbuilt Supersu from ZCX TWRP but didn't get the root access, then I flashed the su binary zip but still didn't get the root access, i flashed latest su 2.79 but still didn't work. But surprisingly my xposed framework is working. But root is not working. Please help me!
I changed my redmi note 4 rom to pixel rom and now I have no root access. It shows this message.
There is no su binary installed and SuperSU cannot intall it. Help please
