Hello,
Anyone could help me with this problem:-
I have already rooted my Note 2 N7100 with Omni 4.4.2 Nightly but somehow, on software update, with an update available after checking it, I was unable to flash it successfully. There was an error. I have checked SuperSU as to install SuperSu backup script as I believe it would help me to do update on the current build but I could not do that as it requires installing SuperSu into/system (converting into a system app) first but when I have tried to install and later rebooted my device, it was still the same. On Custom Rom, I could not install supersu backup script and when trying to flash update (after checking it and update is available, it was again not successful.
Any advice?

Flash SuperSU in recovery and then you should be able to install the backup script.
[Q] SuperSU gives me an error - "There is no binary installed" (Android 5.0)
I have just updated my nexus 4 to Andorid L 5.0 and I rooted the device using CF-Autoroot.
I have the SuperSu app but I dont have access to root and when I open it, it says :
"There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!
If you just upgraded to Android 5.0, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device."
I am quite tired of unlocking my bootloader over and over again.
Is there a flashable zip that can fix this problem ?
Thank you!

Download Supersu beta 2.27 zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
But you need to have a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP to flash it.

you need to flash .img file of modified kernel from chainfire. and yr .zip of supersu will work
SuperSU 2.2.7 will work but CF-Autoroot flashes a modified kernel so you need to flash a stock kernel first then install SuperSU from TWRP. You can leave you bootloader unlocked.
Chainfire has developed a new SuperSu Update zip, Version 2.60 and newer 2.61.
with using this update zip, you will not need a custom kernel for getting root in future, works fine on F, FY Model on Android 5.1.1 (tested).
many, many THX to one of best worldwide developer!
This method will work on many othere phones, please read threads for more infos!
First read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/app...ersu-v2-05-t2868133/post64161544#post64161544

very easy to use:
Install Stock Samsung based FW with stock bootloader etc...
Install latest TWRP
Use TWRP to install latest SuperSU Zip
Attention: If TWRP tells you SuperSU is not installed, and asks you to install it, do not do it, you will break things!
many thanks to developers!!!!!! Great new thing!!!!

You could of already done that. I flashed xposed and it worked without root. Just flash in custom recovery

Trust me, I've done it without root. I had xposed installed before with root then I flashed the latest stock rom from n915w8 and flashed xposed right after without wiping data and it worked. I guess it was because the xposed modules were already configured but ultimately, I did not root in order to use xposed. The functionality of xposed is increased if you root. This is from my experience
The latest xposed for Samsung probably has some loop hole I'm unaware of that allows you to install it without root.

the boot-loader is not unlocked for n915a currently, how can we install twrp? or you mean install supersu by odin without twrp?
step 2... Install latest twrp... How can you do that if your phone has never been rooted before?
for my note edge sprint (915p) i used CWM cos twrp didnt work. after flashing supersu said i dont have root access and if i would like to have it. I SELECTED NO. after rebooting once phone booted fine. took a while for supersu to take over things and now its all good

Do you by any chance have the latest twrp (2.8.0.7) in .tar file? I've been lurking around for a while now and I'm not able to find it. I can only find .img and I need Linux to convert it to .tar to be able to Odin. I've lost root and now I can't get it back.

ok now that ive spent more time with it i believe the root i got is incomplete. on many apps supersu dialogue doesnt pop and they dont recognize the phone as rooted. i used titanium backup to try and remove system apps and despite everything going fine the apps didnt go anywhere
UPDATE: problem fixed. I edited the build.prop in /system/ using a build.prop editor and now all my apps are asking for root
In build.prop look for ro.securestorage.support=True and set it to False
Also solves if your phone keeps forgetting the wifi passwords
It works. SM-915F. Just don't forget to off 'reactivation lock' in security tab in androud in order to install TWRP successfuly. Thanks a lot!
No you're right. Twrp is in img format but you can easily convert it to tar using a linux emulator. Took me minutes to convert it to tar. Google "how to convert img to tar. Running twrp fine
Does it work in 915V ??
So,it's strange how the method works on my 915f. For example; Titanium Backup can't remove systems apps. It looks like I have a root, but not fully operated. Any advices?
Does this still trip the knox counter?
I want to root, but I must keep my warranty as this N915F is on my company's name.

I don't have any custom recovery installed on my phone, i can't flash what u mentioned. Kingroot also fails
Dear all,
my question is: will OTA updates by LG still work if a have an BL unlocked, TRWP installed and Magisk installed?
I would like to keep my stock ROM and get the OTA, but I would like to make backups and be able to install software with needs root.
Can you recommend SU or Magisk?
Thanks.
you can recieve OTA but you can't install it , You need a zip update file and flash it with twrp

With TWRP you cannot install OTA, so in any case you would need to remove it.
Also i don't advise to make OTA on a rooted device, doesn't matter if it's Magisk or SuperSU
