I've installed TWRP on my S4. The issue is cannot get SuperSu working. Keeps force closing and saying cant access binary. Running 4.4.2 and the latest firmware... L720PUFNG2. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have su binary installed? Just because the app, SuperSU, is installed doesn't necessarily grant you root. SuperSu relies on the su binary which may not be installed. How did you get root? Did you use twrp or chainfire's autoroot?
I would try to odin chainfire's autoroot again, boot to recovery right after it succeeds, and wipe cache/dalvik then reboot into the system.

Hi.
So i just rooted my galaxy s4 GT-I9505 and supersu was asking me to update the binary so i looked it up and they said to download the latest version of supersu and flash it through TWRP or CWR so i did that through TWRP and when it rebooted it was updating the apps and supersu was crashing ever since saying " Unfortunately, SuperSU has stopped. "
Its been 2 days now , please help me !!!
Uninstall supersu and then reinstall it. When it asks to update the binaries say normal.
[Q] SuperSU gives me an error - "There is no binary installed" (Android 5.0)
I have just updated my nexus 4 to Andorid L 5.0 and I rooted the device using CF-Autoroot.
I have the SuperSu app but I dont have access to root and when I open it, it says :
"There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!
If you just upgraded to Android 5.0, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device."
I am quite tired of unlocking my bootloader over and over again.
Is there a flashable zip that can fix this problem ?
Thank you!

Download Supersu beta 2.27 zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
But you need to have a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP to flash it.

you need to flash .img file of modified kernel from chainfire. and yr .zip of supersu will work
SuperSU 2.2.7 will work but CF-Autoroot flashes a modified kernel so you need to flash a stock kernel first then install SuperSU from TWRP. You can leave you bootloader unlocked.
Hello
I just installed Lollipop 5.1 and my problem is that when installing SuperSU and asks me to update the binary, I click on Normal and I get this error:
Error in installation!
Reboot and try again, please.
What do I do?
Then why don't you use recovery installation?
And second, almost every 5.1 is already pre-rooted ...
Have you changed SU too a system app? Then it's often normal that you must install over Recovery or Odin.

what rom you on ?
Have you asked over on the SuperSU thread? You're likely to get your answers there, once you provide Chainfire with a logcat.
Whether it is solved , I installed SuperSU with recovery , and it works properly.
Thanks!! :laugh: :good:
What is this Whenever I uninstall kingroot I lose my root access.. I rooted my phone from CF Autoroot, means I should have SuperSu installed but whenever I tried to update binary it used to show disable knox and I did it, I completly uninstalled Knox and now whenever I try to update su binary it says installation failed. Reboot and try again.. I tried sever times but same issue Even I googled and followed dufferent method but su-binary didnt updated and I am forced to stay in kingroot :/

I think the problem is kingroot. It may prevent other superuser apps from installing properly.
If you want supersu, start from 0 (reflash stock) and root it with cf-auto-root first.
Isnt there any alternative way????
KingRoot is only useful if other methods of rooting are either unavailable or not working anymore. If you have a GT-I9505, you can do some trick to root your phone with Towelroot by downgrading kernel using the KitKat one and reflash using the stock Lollipop one right away after rooting.
My suggestion to reflash stock first (like @GDReaper said), and try Towelroot or CF Auto-Root method.

I think another way to root would be to flash TWRP and install supersu from TWRP.
I didn't like KingRoot, and found it very invasive. After it is installed, it continues to slam remote servers for no apparent reason.
KingoRoot seemed 1000 times better and their SuperUser app seems fine. However, the only way I could get SuperSU installed, was to freeze KingoUser/SuperUser and then install SuperSU, then install to system. Reboot and done. I just had to keep Kingo's SuperUser frozen to avoid any problems.
Hopefully this helps.

Brother.. I am in Kitkat only. And I used CF Autoroot to root my device
Did you try removing all traces of previous supersu installations before flashing via TWRP? Which version of supersu was flashed through recovery? The phone has the latest releast of TWRP?
@Athakuri700,
Your phone model?
Sent from my GT-I9500
Its s4 gt-I9505 kitkat 4.4.2 baseband XXUGNH6.. yes the TWRP is of latest one as I flashed from TWRP Manager app..
Not sure if it makes difference but try reflashing twrp using odin, then flash supersu.
Hi everyone,
I tried to root my G2 on KK with IOroot. After flashing supersu didn't work. It asks to update supersu binary and when i try to udate binary, it fails. I have also tried updating binary after updating supersu app from playstore but same happened. Now i can't remove supersu from phone as it is a system app now. How can i root my phone properly at this stage?
Kindly help
