Hello, there, today I've unlocked bootloader with QFIL utility, my phone rebooted, then I rebooted to bootloader and flashed TWRP. But I still don't have root access in my phone, what should I do? Thanks

//Edit Okay now I found in TWRP when I wanna reboot my phone if I want to install SU binary I swipe to install, but still no root installed
On stock rom just flash SuperSU zip in TWRP. It will install everything required, including an control app called SuperSU where you can manage root app's permissions.

So basicly I just want to upgrade my TWRP version (from 2.6.3.2 to 2.6.3.3+) in order to flash new kitkat roms.
But I have 2 issues:
1) I have rooted my device and installed TWRP 2.6.3.2 on my LG stock rom, then I wanted to change rom, so I wiped all but internal storage and flashed Beanstalk 4.4.2 + GAPPS. Now it looks like there's a problem with my root access (root checker says that there is a problem and superSU won't install binary updates). Recovery works fine. Do I need to root my phone again or what? Can I just do these steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887 all over again?
Edit: Ok, After flashing http://download.chainfire.eu/376/SuperSU/, I just needed to deativate supersu and reactivate it. Now it works just fine!
2) I wanted to upgrade my TWRP using FreeGee, but it looks like the app couldn't load without root access (Issue 1). So can I upgrade it with just doing these steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 all over again?
Sorry for the long questions.
Thanks
Download the zip file for twrp. Boot into recovery and install the zip

I am at a loss.
I am crazy and like to restore to stock whenever there is a security update or anything like that just so I can remember how to flash recovery, boot images, etc.
So I had the **18-3 with the Feb update and was rooted with SuperSU ( don't recall which ) and TWRP 3.0.0-1 I believe.
When I got the notification for the new security update I promptly unrooted, and flashed the stock 24.49-18-4 / 24.221.4 firmware and am able to boot.
I have installed the latest TWRP and can boot to it, and reboot to system all I want.
I have done this process twice now because the first time I tried to install SuperSU (2.76??) after all this I got stuck on the moto logo and could not boot.
Other threads have mentioned you cannot root with SuperSu on 6.0, or something to that effect.
So I am not unrooted (I believe) on 24.49-18-4 and want to root to be able to get SuperSU and the rest of my root apps up and running.
What do I do from here?

Su 2.62-3 for root & boot up normal then flash over Su 2.76
Done.

Of course you lost root and TWRP because a update.zip contains also recovery and other things(vendor, custom, etc.) and by flashing it the stock recovery will overwrite your TWRP and the new system will delete your root access.
And NEVER install KingRoot on this device! It will mess a lot of things(SuperSU and Magisk work)
You will need to flash TWRP again in order to have root because both supersu and magisk need to be flashed through TWRP(because they are .zip files, at least a part of the root, you will need to install the magisk app to have full root)
SuperSU root just needs to be flashed, just magisk needs an app to be installed after .zip flash.

Hello there. I recently unlocked my bootloader, everything went fine.
I rooted, installed twrp, everything worked.
Then i wanted magisk instead of supersu, so i clicked on choose other app in supersu and that didnt work so i tried to remove supersu with flashing a file that removes it
then my phone got bricked,
I can't enter fastboot, i cantenter recovery, i cant eneter erecovery, and when i try something as flashify, it tells me i have no root acces.
only solution: wait for an app like kingoroot to make my device able to root, install flashify and reinstall rom etc
but i currently can't wait because im already late on system updates and im scared my device will just stop working after all
extra things i encountered: system apps dissapearing, not beeing able to install system update, can't change the theme etc....
I really need help, thanks <3
Update: I can get into eRecovery now but when i try ti get new recovery it says getting package info failed...
I managed to finally unlock the bootloader on my P8 lite by downgrading to Android 5. Once there, I rooted the phone with KingRoot, got the unlock code with grep and unlocked the bootloader. Then, I unrooted and flashed a rom to have Android 6. I then flashed TWRP recovery and found some zips that were supposed to give root access (named "1.zip" and "2.zip"). After flashing, SuperSU was not installed, attempts to install from apk got denied and flashing it seemed successful, but upon booting I can't find it anywhere. I even tried to sign the apk with no luck. Any ideas? I may need to re flash the root zips.
root
you need twrp--> supersu.zip install.
