I would recommend flashing or temporarily booting a custom recovery and then flash the latest version of SuperSu which can be found here in recovery. This should give fix the binary need's to update error your encountering. Let me know if you still have questions.

Mine did the same. Then I chose the other option not normal and it installed it automatically through recovery. Before that it might be needed to download twrp recovery from here
http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/128. Use Android App Install Method.

I got my nexus 10 yesterday...
did the regular stuff:
fastboot oem unlock followed by fastboot flash recovery ... then i applied SuperSU.1.65 but its not workin > pic below.. any idea folks?

I would recommend flashing SuperSU again in recovery and if that still doesn't work take a look at CF-Auto root which will allow you to gain root access.

thanks for the answer.. I flashed 10x times.. same story... doesn't CF-Auto root flash an old version of supersu which is not compatible with android 4.3 ?

People have reported that CF-Auto Root works fine with Android 4.3 on the Nexus 10. You can also always update the SuperSU app and binary after successfully rooting with CF-Auto Root.

Thx my prob was solved by appying latest recovery and latest supersu 1.65
Beamed from my Htc kickass Sensation using tapatalk 4.

Same problem here
On starting SuperSU, here’s what I get:
>The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?
[selected: Continue]
>If you have a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM, that can be used to (try to) install the SU binary. This is recommended for HTC devices. How would you like to install the SU binary? (Normal / TWRP/CWN)
[selected: Normal]
>Installing, please wait
>Installation failed!
As far as I can tell, I can’t install TRWP/CWN because the SuperSU binary is not updated, and I can’t update the the SuperSU binary unless TRWP/CWN is installed. This looks like a vicious circle, can anyone recommend a way out of it please?
Further background:
Device: Evolveo Xtraphone 4.5 Q4, rooted by SRSroot which recognised it as an HTC device.
Also attempted: updating from SD card with UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86.zip, by running Superuser.apk from the zip folder. This takes me back to square one: “The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?” etc.
Any recommendations enormously appreciated, thanks!

[Q] Updating firmware with Odin

Hello,
I want to ask if it's possible to just update the firmware, not flashing new firmware which removes all of my data.
I have rooted stock firmware and want update it to the latest stock firmware using Odin because OTA doesn't work with rooted devices.
My device is SM-N900 and rooted by CF-Auto-Root.

Yes it is possible but after the OTA update you have to re-root your device.
follow the steps:
1. Install Xposed Framework (a.k.a. Xposed Installer)
2. Tap on "Framework", then do it on "Install/Update"
3. Install Wanam Xposed
4. Open Xposed Installer, tap on "Modules" and check Wanam Xposed
5. Reboot the phone
6. Open Wanam Xposed, go to "Security Hacks"
7. Check (on System) "Fake System Status"
8. Reboot again...
9. you can go back to updating OTA

Thanks for the reply but that was not what I asked for, I asked if it's possible to update the firmware using Odin and keep all of my data as it's an OTA update.
And if I follow your steps (Xposed), can I just uninstall Xposed Installer and Wanam Xposed after I finish updating the firmware?

Waiting for the answer too.
in the meanwhile you can just backup your data with My Backup Pro and then restore later.

If it worked why do you need to update via Odin .And you still can update your stock ROM via odin by downloading the latest stock rom from sammobile.com and that's it,if you worried about your data just use Titanium to backup your data.

Dont do ota updates of you are rooted 0x0!

I didn't know that I can run OTA update on root device, but it worked fine till I realized that my new updated phone said "bye-bye" to root
Superuser still there but wont start. Any ideas? is it normal to re-root again?

It worked for me just fine.
I did this and see if this will help you, but I don't think there is difference between the two steps.
First I searched for "Xposed Installer" on google play but I didn't find, instead I found "Wanam Xposed", so I installed and when I ran it it asked me to download "Xposed Installer" and I hit download and installed it, then the remain steps are the same as Dahdoul's.

Your phone has custom recovery? Or only rooted?
I try many times but it still in custom status, so cannot OTA update. My phone is N9005 from Malaysia, build MJ1, with CWM recovery.

The more advanced approach is to use Mobile Odin Pro - that way on Snapdragon version you can keep the old bootloader and automatically re-inject root and keep Knox 0x0!
In your case standard Odin might also work, latest stock firmware is generally non-wipe.

[Q] "App not installed" error

Hi I have a weird problem. I hope someone can help me out.
1. Rooted SM-N9005 with Towelroot. Successful. Verified with Root Checker. Then I installed SuperSU and also Titanium Backup (to remove bloatware).
2. Before rooting, everything was ok! but PROBLEM 1 occured as now when I try to dial, the phone, contact and even message have all stopped, "unfortunately ... has stopped working"
SO I read in the xda forums and tried App manager > All > wipe cache but still didnt work.
Went into samsung recovery and wipe cache/data but still didnt work.
Didnt want to install TWRP or CWM as I read these will trip KNOX.
SO I reset to factory settings.
3. . Even after reset to factory, phone, contact and sms didnt work. BUT NEW PROBLEM 2 is now I cannot even install apps such as towelroot, rootchecker, titanium backup or SuperSU... "App NOT installed"
Please anyone help me thank you

Its stock rom as i have only rooted. I read on the xda forum the flashing custom rom or even install twwrp or cwm will trip knox.... so i didnt do anything rom-wise.
The phone app and sms app were on the front page. Sorry i dunno what launcher means.

Hi thanks! It worked! I used the latest update. NEW PROBLEM 1. installed towelroot SUCEESS. but when I used towelroot, it says 'this phone not supported'
so does this mean i have to flash the older rom again and then towelroot it?
if root is successful, can i then flash back the newer rom and still keep root?

If you change for GBNL8 lollipop rom
Choose rom pre-rooted it's more simple ( Aryamod for exemple )
but make a backup of your current rom with laster TWRP recovery ...2.8.3.0 ( additional check box EFS and Modem)

[ROOT][RECOVERY][ALL IN ONE] Cf-Autoroot-twrp-T700/705/800/805/Tab S- UPDATE 23/4/15

Updated CF-autoroot with latest Supersu binaries and combined TWRP recovery for SM-T800/SM-T805/T700/T705 Exynos only, Lollipop and Kitkat
I've noticed that quite a number of people seeking to root their device also flash TWRP afterwards, seeing as it's unnecessary to do both steps I have made an all in one package to root and install TWRP recovery.
Cf-autoroot has been updated with the latest Supersu binaries and TWRP has been updated with my fixed version (ADB root shell and Download mode fixes).
UPDATE - I have updated all versions with new builds. TWRP is now v2.8.6.2 and now includes the fixes recently pushed to their repo for encrypted backups. I have also addressed the slow wipe issue, cache, system, etc., which some have experienced and should now be much quicker.
Each device now has it's own build, this is to ensure that TWRP recovery build properties reflect the device it's installed on. ROMs such as CM12 should now install without issue.
Feedback is welcome.
Simply flash with ODIN. Odin 10.6

UPDATED TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3074633
NOTE: It is important to boot to recovery after flashing or twrp may not stick and will be replaced with stock recovery.
When flashing uncheck auto reboot in Odin, immediately after flashing manually reboot and boot into twrp.
Manual reboot is POWER + HOME +VOL DOWN then as soon as the screen goes blank immediately change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons.
