Hey, so my root checker is failing, and I have no idea why. I'm using TWRP and have flashed Illusion mod, however, I don't have any root access to kind of tinker with my CPU levels.
I'm basically thinking I have to re-root my device. MY question is, I spent a lot of time customizing my phone exactly to how I'd want it and I just found this out. If I back up my custom flash, and reroot my device, can I go back into TWRP and restore my backup? Will that mess anything up?
OR most importantly, does anyone know how to give full root access to an already rooted device?
Thanks! I'm almost there with my 100% customized phone, I'm VERY eager and have been having a BLAST learning all this.

You won't lose anything if you reroot your device. You don't have to wipe data. Have you tried downloading supersu from the play store and letting it install the binaries? Or flashing supersu through recovery?

Yeah, I have tried downloading supersu from the play store... but it says it cannot update the binaries. Not sure why.
I'll try flashing supersu from recovery though. Might be a better idea. If I flash supersu through recovery, will it install all the latest binaries as well? Or will I still have to update it later?
edit: flashing the SuperSU worked perfectly!!! I only tried installing it via playstore, not actually flashing it. Thanks a ton!!

After installing the lollipop update I lost the rooting to the phone.
I rooted my phone again but to be sure for the next time,is there a way to root Lenovo a6000 plus permanently?
When u flash new rom, you have to root again, no way for permanent exept root option include in the rom
You wanted to root again hah? Flash SuperSU.zip (based on my knowledge stock LL cannot/hard to root withe root.apk like kingroot. So, i think the latest tricks is flash the supersu.zip) but still... if you are Advanced User if not dont trying it

Dude sometimes root doesn't install properly i don't know why... I am on stock with 1.4Ghz oc kernel... Thing happens to me is that whenever i reboot my phone. Root stops working and says su binary needs to be updated.. I just have reinstall again and again to keep it working after boot.. So do u have any to solve it?

For me root still work even on reboot. To root my phone, i flashed SuperSU.zip with custom recovery twrp. How about you? Did you using same thing like me or by apps like KingRoot.apk?

Yup obviously.. By SU... I never use kingroot... Well i know it shouldn't have happened... Btw fresh rom install will solve it.. But i don't wanna do that.. Setting up phone again and again suks.. I just asked it because i thought if you might have had this problem! Thanks btw
To clear things up. Think of root as a system module (binary) ("su" module located in "xbin"). Each time you install a new OS, core partitions need to be formated (/cache, /data, and ofc /system). If the SuperUser module is not pre-installed in the new firmware you are flashing, it can be additionally obtained through Chainfire's installation zip. Nearly all custom ROMs have it and will work just fine, with some needing user input to activate it (Settings > Dev Settings > Root Access). While stock ROMs will NEVER have root capabilities pre-loaded.
So, all in all:
No, there is no such thing and will never be, as permanent root. Everything is being overwritten all the time.
Rooting and re-rooting the A6000 is safe and easy.
Hi All,
I had obtained root via CF-Autoroot and was using it with xposed for the last few weeks without issues. I took the lunge and tried to install phh super su, magisk systemless root. so the nightmare begins for me and i'm hoping it's an easy fix!
My system is still encrypted (I believe because TWRP can't see the system) SD card is fine. I've wiped my device a few times already and am hoping I don't need to wipe it again(prior to this setup).... So currently it's running fine without root access (How I hate android without root!!!)
- I've tried flashing Supersu zip in TWRP and it's failed - I believe it's not supported yet for encrypted devices.
-I've tried using the original CF-Autoroot method I used initially.
Both methods, it boots up straight away (no optimising apps) and after installing supersu app from playstore, it says no binaries found.
What are some ways I can inject root without wiping my device?
Please help me! Thankyou!
Maybe go back to the start and flash original FW through Odin and start from scratch, so you have a fresh phone to work with.

That's my plan when I get home tonight. I want to flash the original firmware file my phone started with (I'm assuming it won't delete anything?) and then run through the root steps again.. if it doesn't work, I'll wipe my phone and make sure I get rid of encryption this time..

I think you will only lose stuff if you do a system reset after installing the original FW.
I only have had to do that on my tab S not my Edge after coming from a custom rom as I got slow down.
Resolved: flashed original rom and obtained root with cf-autoroot.
If someone has detailed instructions for magisk systemless root and xposed, it'd be much appreciated.. i want to have the option to use android pay or play pokemon go if i wanted. Thankyou
So, i tried to Root my GF's I9506 with CF-Autoroot.
Safteynet fails and PokemonGo doesn't work, login problems.
I Unrooted trough SuperSU, restarted the phone a couple of times but PoGo still wont login.
She's on Stock Samsung Rom with Stock Recovery.
What can i do?
I was able to Re-Root with SuperSU for some reason. Had to update the binary tho. That's strange...
Shouldnt work if SuperSU unrooted in the first place?
Maybe it leaves files behind. If you're interested, there are ways to hide root from the game.
Anyway, the only sure way to remove root would probably be the flashing of a stock ROM.

Hmm. She really dosen't want to do a factory reset. so i guess i have to hide it then..
I think there are a few options i think all of them needs another recovery though:
Magisk + Magiskhide + phh
SuperSu, Suhide
Something called iSu.
Might it help to root again, remove anu "Su" files and folders trough ES Filexplorer? Then unroot from SuperSu?
If the phone is running a stock ROM, flashing a stock ROM usually leaves all of the data intact.

Removing any root file live might break root, which in turn won't let you remove any of the other files left.
Besides, you don't even know what files to look for.
Having a custom recovery won't affect her usage of the phone, nor the game. Besides, it gives you the benefit of making a Nandroid backup.
Ty for all the answers. So a custom Recovery doesn't trigger Saftynet?
Might as well install TWRP, backup and try to reflash stock rom from there.
Samsung Galaxy S4 International Qualcomm (jfltexx)
Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE Advanced i9506 (ks01lte)
Which one? i suppose its the 9506, flashhing my old CF-autoroot for my 9505(jfltexx) didn't work.
To flash a stock ROM, you need Odin, Samsung phone drivers, and the stock ROM from sammobile.com.
OK. But i'll do a backup on twrp first. Ty ty
Fixed it! Reflashed stock Rom with Odin and now Pogo works again!
Ty a lot for all the help. you guys are the best!
Hi, Can someone please help, I must have done something wrong. Flashed official 4.1.6 update through twrp successfully, but lost root, tried to flash super su again (ver 2.86), but got stuck in boot, logo froze.
Flashed 4.1.6 again, phone works but no root still.
Is that a wrong super su version or did I do something else wrong?
Help will be really appreciated.
Regards
After flashing a full update you'll always have to reflash your root solution. I guess you mean SuperSU v2.82...
Use the official 2.82, found here (there's a link to the flashable zip). There's also a link to a version to try if you're experiencing bootloops.
You could also try the release candidate, found here.
Magisk all the way
1. Wipe data
2. Flash ROM
3. Flash root package, either SuperSU or Magisk
4. Reboot
I see no reason why wouldn't this work for you

Hi,
Many thanks.
Before proceeding, should the super su app also be removed from phone?

I think, I was not able to explain, Rom is already there, but I just flashed 4.1.6 update, and root was gone.
Just wanna avoid all those data backup, restore, register all new banking apps etc, it time consuming and painful.
I am pretty sure, root can be restored, when I have an unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery working properly.
SuperSU is still there in apps but can't open as says, root not available. However, can uninstall this if that is required.
Cheers

You can try to uninstall it through supersu app but make sure to keep you boot img. Then your phone will be fully unrooted, go into twrp and reflash supersu/magisk

Mobile is hang on samsung logo, tried reset with twrp and official recovery both. Can some one tell me where i did mistake or where is the problem.

I don't understand your goal?
Systemless root IS full root. Your terminology is incorrect.
SuperSU doesn't really support system root on Android 7.
I also dont see the point of making SuperSU a system app. Even though its rather pointless if that is all you require for whatever strange reason then you can just move the Supersu app to the system partition.
There is a better way to stay rooted after a hard reset and it's called FRP.
First there is nothing strange in stay rooted after hard reset, trust me. My friend use this mobile. He needs root for lucky patcher. When first he came to me I rooted it via twrp and after couple of days he came back with custom binary block option and plus he doesn't remember newly created gmail id pass. For me it was hell of a job. So i decided to root it permanently. I am not an expert though but my point was to take full root instead of systemless root. Thanks for clearing that 7.0 isn't supported for full system root. I saw here a rom stock dexoded and pre rooted. Is it better option to install it rather than stock rom?

Like I already stated Factory Reset Protection (FRP) is already built in to SuperSU.
Just do the following in a terminal then re-install SuperSU:
echo "FRP=true">>/data/. supersu
