Do you have any superuser app installed? Make sure that root checker is not blacklisted.

Strange but the apps are working fine.
I am confused do I have root or not?
Do I have to flash cf-autoroot via odin again?

You are on 4.4.2 or 4.3 or 4.2.2 ??
On 4.4.2 cf auto root might not work
Install philz touch recovery. It has an option to reroot/install su binary

Can I still upgrade to the 5.0 android when it comes out even if my S4 is rooted??
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Yes, but you might have to install a custom firmware or return to stock without root, or just remove the root and wait for the ota update.

I hope we get it, but I'd say we'll be waiting quite a while but no guarantees either.

Just got my s4 and was wondering if I can just root it and install a custom tw based kernel on the stock rom?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Yes you can root it, use cf-autoroot and then install a custom recovery so you can install the kernel you want to use.

For you to get the new update, you atleast need to be on stock rooted with no mods whats so ever and have stock recovery. And you can get update but if you have custom recovery its aborts it

So I took the risk and rooted my AT&T S4 with kingo. The only issue is that I can't get a recovery installed. Is there any way to get CWM installed or should I use safestrap?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You can't use either

Not even safestrap? That sucks. Oh well, life goes on. Thanks for the info.

Only using Odin, which requires a PC. There is no other way to replace the stock recovery.
I have no PC so there has to he another way...
