And get rid of ROM Manager

Need More help didn't work

I don't use CM, but if it comes with the newest version of SuperUser (3.04 I believe), then that's likely the problem. Uninstall it and install an older version.

R&R SU with one in this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297612
I too had thought I lost root access w/ latest SU (3.04 I believe).
Installed 3.0 in above link and everything back to normal now, i.e, root apps functioning normally.
Just be careful not to update app through Market to 3.04; I haven't found a way to stop it prompting me to update. Can't detach from Market via TB because SU doesn't appear in apps list.

i'm on 3.4 with no issues but ive lost root flashing other roms with 3.0. weird
Do what HipKat says.

This shouldn't be frustrating - binary update.

I tried a couple of root apps, they didn't work. F***. Adaway and Music2SD. Both tell me that my rooted S4 isn't rooted. I have prerooted MF9, flashed via TWRP. It included SuperSU, with 1.1.3 binary (I think). Okay, after no search results I decided to do something on my own.
First, I opened SuperSU and told it to install itself as a system app. Then, I installed ChainsDD Superuser. That's when I found out my binary was out of date. I chose to update it via Superuser. For some reason or another, it said it didn't update. I went to app manager, cleared data and uninstalled updates for SuperSU. I updated it in the play store and opened it. Then, it told me my binary was out of date - woo! Wait.. normal method didn't work - "Installation Failed!" Okay, try TWRP/CWM method. It rebooted into recovery, flashed some stuff before I could read it, and restarted. Booted right back up. I opened Superuser and it said I was on v0. Went to ChainsDD's site and downloaded the 3.1.3 ARM to flash in recovery. I did that, still nothing. Now SuperSU and Superuser are permanently installed apps (I now have no root to delete them). Whatever. I ran CF-Auto-Root in Odin. After that, both SuperSU and Superuser were removed. I have nothing now.
My question is, what's the best way to get the latest binary on MF9? If i restore from Nandroid, how should I update? If I start from scratch, what binary will I get from CF-Auto-Root?
UPDATE: I'm back to rooted, with SuperSU. I got the update binary notice and chose the normal method. It updated just fine, but I still can't use Adaway or Music2SD. Superuser by ChainsDD still shows v0.. all of my normal apps have root access just fine.
FIX!: My ignorance is to blame here - XPrivacy blocks root access by default on Adaway and Music2SD... I didn't realize it did that!

Multitool Advance v6 by dr.ketan - Busybox Problem

Hi all,
Just flashing my note 3 to stock rom 4.3 latest update. Then using dr.ketan multitool to root, at this stage all is good. Until I install apps like titanium backup (titanium said no binary found) or triangle away (it says supersu needed, even the phone is rooted and supersu can be updated). Tried to install busybox from apps store but still can't fix the problem. checked with root checker, it says device rooted but no busybox found.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Have tried to flash and reflash so many time with different options but still no fix. I just need to get the busybox get recognised so my titanium backup and triangle away can work properly.

[Q] LG L Fino - SuperSU binary update failed

I recently got a new phone - LG L Fino (D290) - after some time I googled how to root it and found the PurpleDrake method. People said that it works and it saved their lives.
I tried it - PD said that everything was successful.. so I installed SuperSU and can't get it to update binaries, all I get is an alert that says "Installation failed"
There is no CWM nor TWRP recovery compatible with my phone.
Even after hard-resetting the phone I have the same trouble
Can anyone help?

I changed SuperSU to Superuser. When I try to update binaries on this one, it fails on downloading the manifest file.
Seriously, I need help...

Well firts of all sorry if my english is bad. I root the phone with purpledrake method and it was completely succesful. Then i went to Google Play and i downloaded this apphttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu Open it, click in update, normal and thats all. You will have supersu and your phone rooted. (If you have reset the phone try to do the purpledrake method again and then download the app)

Im guessing this is a unique problem with your device. Try reflashing a stock KDZ and trying again.

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. I found a really nice way to root the L FINO with no issues.
Get Kingo root app, It's an installer. It will install root and a SuperUser which is Kingo SuperUser or Something like that.

[5.0] [GalaxyS5] [Root] Rooted properly?

Hello everybody,
recently I updated my Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F) to Android Lollipop 5.0, After that I downloaded CF Auto Root and it looked like it rooted perfectly, it rebooted in the screen with the red android pirate thingy and after that it rebooted my device with SuperSU installed on it. Then I started downloading some root apps to see if it worked. Root Checker said my device was rooted and then I downloaded GameCIH, it asked for root access and I granted the root access but when it was done loading it says: System Deny to Root. I searched the internet and found out that GameCIH doesn't work on Honeycomb or above, so i tried downloading SB Game Killer or Game Guardian, but both asked for root access but crashed after a couple of seconds so i tried re-rooting but when i opened SuperSU it sayed: There is no SU Binary installed, and SU can't install one. This is a problem! If you just switched to Android 5.0, then you need to re-root your device manually.
Can anyone help me with this problem, because I dont know what to do?

You use the latest ODIN to flash CF-ROOT ?
3.10.6 is latest iirc

Hello Detection,
Yes i used ODIN v3.07

That's not the latest version

Have you got busybox installed. Some apps need busybox. Install it from playstore and install busybox.
