Super SU Unroot Help

Hey guys,
I have a Galaxy s4 I9505 which has been used a bit already. It reached me with already installed Super SU app. Since my phone is already rooted, i wanted to unroot it and found an option on it but it didnt unroot it, rather kept saying please wait and then i gave up. I restarted my phone and now when i try to open it it says there is no SU binary installed.....
Now, how can I unroot this phone so that i can update it.
Thanks!
By update you mean official OTA?
If it's rooted and knox is 0x1 then I don't think you will be able to receive any more official updates.
You might be able to flash them via Odin though.
Installing another superuser app might solve the su binary missing issue
Hi,
With Knox tripped you can still receive system updates, you'll not receive if you have System Status: Custom. And I agree on the latter part, the best solution for you would be reinstall stock firmware using Odin. There are plenty of guides out there, just search for it .
All the best,

Galaxy S4- How Do I Update From 4.4.2 To 5.0?

Update from 4.4.2
Hi all,
I'm stuck on 4.4.2 right now, but i want to update to 5.0.
Anyone who can give me a tutorial?
I have no SD card.
Connect to a good wifi, go into settings and there should be an "Software update" option somewhere, if you are on stock rom.
Do this,go to sammobile,download firmware 5.0.1 for your mobile and install with Odin program,that is all .
Yes if can't update from ota, download firmware from sammobile and flash via odin . .
I forgot to mention, that i have rooted my phone using CF-autoroot
It doesnt matter, you can flash your official firmware via Odin whenever you want. Just download the firmware from sammobile.com and flash it. Thats all. In addition if you want to use a custom rom you can choose a 5.x.x version of it and flash it via TWRP recovery. It is your choise.
Okay i've followed THIS tutorial, but now it asks for some root issues.
"Root access possibly lost. Fix?"
"THIS CAN NOT BE UNDONE"
"- No"
"- Yes - fix root (/system/xbin/su)"
I want to keep my root
I am quite stuck untill someone tells me how to keep my root.
I am using CWM.

How to select a correct stock firmware for my G930P?

Hi~
After an unsuccessful root, I want to restore the original version fireware, so I flashed G930PVPS4APK1 firmware which I downloaded from sammobile. But when rebooting the phone, it prompts "customer", and I can't use OTA, there is an error message in "System Update": "Unable to update the software. A network or server error occurred. try again later."
Besides that, every thing is fine. It seems that I have flashed a wrong stock firware ? Could anyone please tell me how to fix this problem? Thanks!!!

Having problems to update to Lollipop

I'm trying to update to Lollipop but via OTA it shows an error message, which says to try again later or use Samsung Kies
I tried installing Samsung Kies, but it also shows a failure message (I'm using Windows 8.1).
How can I update it?
Most tutorials for installing custom roms, twrp, etc need to be in the lollipop.
