Hello,
I just have upgrading my i9505 to 4.4.2 I9505XXUFNA5 KitKat.
I tried to root my 9505 after upgrade with CF-root "jfltexx", but after i got PASS on Odin, i opened SuperSU and i got message "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. this is a problem!!"
How to solve this problem? Is there any upgrade to CF-root jfltexx?

Remember after flashing Root/custom your warranty is now void.
Flash a Custom recovery iE: Philz ,CWM, TWRP and download a Su-Binary and put it in your sdcard ,and boot into recovery mode. and flash SuperSU Binary .Done

I tried to reflash the CF-Root again, and it doesn't work??!
Maybe jfltexx doesn't support 4.4.2 android KitKat!

you must to flash the super su update zip for the new 4.4.2 Roms my friend
If you have installed the CF autoroot you must to flash philz Revovery or CWM
and then flash this zip Link

I also did that, and seems that is rooted, but when i go to ES file explorer to open root directory, it says it's empty!!!!
I cannot view root directory or open it???!!! something is missing in CF Root "jfltexx"

LMFAO. That directory is *always* empty and has nothing to do with being rooted or not :good:

Download this and flash it through CWM (or any custom recovery you're using) After that, update the app from the play store. (And update the binary if requested to.)
Smack that Thanks button if I helped!
KitKat came in on my OmniROM, running on my Note 2.
Sent from a small country called Singapore.
P.S. Time for school, not much time for XDA

[Q] No SU Binary installed

I was rooting my Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 phone with this very simple method.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VZd71DWqEo
Everything worked fine until I ran SuperSU and it told me that there is no binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. I re-flashed the SuperSU ZIP with CWM Recovery and I get the same problem. The file I flashed from recovery was this one http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/tools/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip.
Should I be flashing something else?
If you're on latest firmware you need a newer version. You'll find it in the original development section

[Q] [HELP] Can't install TWRP in N900

Hi everyone, I need help, because today I was trying to install TWRP (2.7.0.4 and also tried 2.7.0.34) in my Exynos Note 3 with Odin 3.09 (I tried 3.07 too) and I do the process correctly and it says RESET! with no errors, but when I try to enter the recovery, it boots the stock recovery :/
Why is this happening?
Thank you very much.
Did you flash CWM before that? Odin and TWRP aren´t friends
Or try TWRP manager. In manager flash img

No because I don't have the phone rooted, the idea is install the recovery and then root it. I will try with CWM
Didn't know you could install custom recovery without being rooted. . and I think you don't. If you want to root anyway than just do it and than install cwm mate.

I solve the problem, I untick the Auto reboot in Odin and then enter recovery without restart and installed a .zip to solve that program and then I rooted it and I'm happy

But I think he can install CWM without root It change KNOX to 0x1. And after that install TWRP
Because in custom recovery he choose root with SuperSU

Just informed myself..lol and you are right. But it is a real pain in the a**. You need to flash bootloader and... never mind he fixed it anyway by rooting

Root issue

Hi everyone.
Im having a root issue.
Ive rooted my Galaxy S4 with no problems at all. My firmware version is I9505XXUGNG8.
However when i try to go to the Clockworkmod recovery i can't do it.
It simply goes to the normal system recovery. I want to install a custom rom, so this way i cant do it.
Ive tried some workarounds but the problem continues.
Is there anyway known to fix this?
Thanks
Use flashify app on your phone and flash the recovery zip
Remember it will trip the knox counter

Well, the thing is, i already have my knox on 0x01
Will that allow me to enter a custom recovery mode??
Cause my main problem is that i cant acess a custom recovery mode, that way i cant install a custom rom

Erm what!?
First of all you need odin to flash a custom recovery not the stock recovery.
Or flashify app from the playstore.
Or rom manager app from the playstore.
Only then can you start flashing a rom.
Plus check the file youre using for flashing the CWM recovery.

OK, i will try to explain better my problem
I have installed CF-Auto-Root with Odin and everything just worked fine.
After that i installed Clockworkmod recovery app and flashed. All fine
I want to install a custom rom (paranoid android), but for that i have to restart my phone in clockworkmod recovery mode so i can apply the custom rom and the gapps. Thats where i have my problem.
I dont know if it is because of knox being void already, everytime that i restart my phone, instead of going to clockworkmod recovery mode, the phone only goes to the stock recovery mode. (I still dont understand why)
Thats why i cant install this custom rom. Hope ive explain better now and someone can help

I know that CF-Auto root has issues with the last official firmware for GT-I9505
I will try to flash another one of these youre saying
Tip: After u flashed the custom recovery, don't let your phone boot in to system. First you need to boot into recovery, after this u can boot in your system.

CF root doesn't have issues. You won't need root to use custom recovery.
Just download TWRP, Philz or CWM and flash it with Odin. Uncheck auto-reboot before flashing and go.

Hi! yes i am using Odin 3.10.6 and a PC Windows 7
I'm not familiar with other versions of the s5, are you 8s9ng the correct recovery file? Which slot are you putting it in?it should go into AP, if I remember correctly.
Hi! Far as i know i use The correct file, do you maybe have a Link to one?
Yeah i check The AP then use The file i downloaded then click start, The flashing process passes but still stock recovery...
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Free mobile app
I ran into the same problem, flashed TWRP 3 times and KNOX remained 0x0 and recovery remained stock
Ended up having to use CF Auto Root to gain root, then use TWRP Manager to flash TWRP

Flashing stock firmware will restore the stock recovery obviously, and remove root access. So flash TWRP again (on Odin disable the Auto Reboot option while doing) via Odin and then flash the latest SuperSU zip from TWRP. Easy.

Thanks man. But I also have a error pop up from my notification (trltedt-user MMB29M N910GDTU1DPG4 release-keys).
Should I flash twrp straight away?

I really don't know that error mate. But just flash recovery from Download mode, should work. Don't forget to un-tick that auto reboot option in Odin.
