I just came from a custom ROM back to stock rom and wanted to root again. I flashed CWM recovery with ODIN en then flashed CWM-SuperSU-v.0.99.zip
When I opened the SuperSU app and clicked on update, it said installation failed. I went to the play store to update. Now it says I'm not even rooted . What am I doing wrong here?

Can I just flash over the current CWM recovery?

No, you were just installing supersu app (you don't need cwm recovery to do that), but not making root. Supersu is just a tool for root management. Flash cfautoroot with odin and then go to gplay and download supersu.

I flashed SuperSU (so including the binary, not just the app) in CWM recovery. How is that not making root? It should work that way, just apparently not for me.
so I already have CWM recovery, and the CF-auto-root brings the stock recovery. My question was whether I can just flash over it or not
edit: I just flashed over it, and works now

Supersu is just an app to manage root accesses, and binaries can be installed directly oppening supersu after install it from google play or from a zip using cwm (what you did), but first you need to make root. I am 99% sure that cfautoroot backups the actual recovery to restore again after root; if dont you can flash again the cwm after cfauto and you shouldn't lose root.

Hi
I have a non rooted Note 4 N901F, L.5.1.1.
I didn't plan to root it for now, that is, unless I have to.
What I mean is I would like to have a recovery, like TWRP, so I can do full backups, wipe caches, and so.
How do I install a recovery? Do I need to root first?
Yes you need to root if you want twrp, there are other ways to backup your phone mate

Actually, you can flash the recovery before rooting. The method I use to root my C variant, is that I flash the TWRP through odin, then flash a custom kernel to root. So, you can say I flash TWRP recovery before rooting...
Hi Guys
I just installed the CM12.1 Temasek, but when I check if my phone has root with the root checker leaves me no. Reviewing Internet tells me that in the options menu of programmer should I look for root access but that option dont appears to me, that you should do? or I can fix thi? i realize the update of SuperSU from TWRP and still does not work

Come on seriously. You flash a rom without checking the first post or at least read install instructions.
Warning: spoon feeding incoming:
To gain root access flash supersu file in recovery. Even linked to that file. Twrp doesn't magically root your device without having a file to flash. It's just a false reminder when it sees you have no root access.
Temasek removed the supersu from the rom as you have to do it yourself when you clean install. Get supersu survival after first install so you don't lose it on dirty flashes. Please don't ask how to do that. Just go to supersu settings and look.
Thank you

Chainfire update 2.46
Enviado desde mi SM-N900W8 mediante Tapatalk
What did you update? In other words, what were you on before this?
I always use this one http://download.chainfire.eu/743/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip
Hey,
I too got my root access removed when installed CM ROM but the best way I did to recover my root is using ODIN and CF-AUTORoot files available on internet .
Just go and flash that .tar file and you'll get back your root access
IMO Odin should always be the last step. Flash SuperSU 2.52 from TWRP 2.8.7.0. It will fix whatever causes root to fail automatically

You are probably using older supersu and Twrp files, use the latest ones.
EDIT: Just follow what emuandco said in his last post, should solve the problem right away.
Hi I updated my 910F to MM then rooted with CF, and all went fine.
Now after few days the phone lost root (no idea how) and now redoing with CF Chainfire will not root the phone ???
How to root now?
Maybe try reflash firmware, then fash TWRP via Odin and then flash latest supersu via TWRP. That's how I did it an have no problems

CF AutoRoot is not up to date so it will disappear after some time.
Its better to you to root it on this way :
Download Latest SuperSU and TWRP Recovery ;
Copy the Latest SuperSu zip on your phone/sd card ;
Flash TWRP via Odin ;
Reboot on TWRP ;
Flash SuperSU and all should be good.
tried it, re doing CF chainfire, install latest stable superSU from TWRP, still cannot get the root access back.

Can someone post links to latest TWRP and superSu for N910F 6.0.1....thanks...
Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk
Well, I need root, I cannot live without backups and android without root and backups are incompatible really... thats what I dont like from android, so, my questions are.
The main question is, can I flash twrp without unlock bootloader to backup data? cause here first will flash, then unlock...
http://www.droidviews.com/unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-and-root-zte-axon-7-a2017g/
so I can flash twrp, backup, then downgrade, unlock bootloader, upgrade, reflash twrp, and restore data?...
Its possible?
thanks so much
As far as I understand:
You do not need to unlock bootloader if you stay with stock ROM (no custom ROM).
The signed TWRP (from tenfar) can be flashed using axon7tool without bootloader unlocked, and root (currently SuperSU 2.79) to be flashed immediately after (since you swipe to allow system modifications).
Then you must upgrade immediately TWRP (from inside TWRP using latest TWRP .img file https://twrp.me/devices/zteaxon7.html), otherwise the signed TWRP has fatal bugs and cannot be used to backup and restore.
I don't think that will work...
Use the stock backup app.

No, you must have stock recovery, so you can't use persistent twrp. Only boot twrp with fastboot and mount read only system image.
