Zenfone 2 Laser Supersu "Binary update failed" - Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I want to root my phone (Asus ze500kl-marshmallow), but there are some problems with that. I set up bootloader and twrp successfully, then I installed supersu. But if I open Supersu, it requires binary update-and this update fails.. I tried at least 5 times to reinstall twrp and supersu-nothing. I would really appreciate your help!

SuperSU

I'm on a B09, bootloader unlocked and rooted with SuperSU 2.65 A2017G.
Except from the 2.65 version, is there another one working for the A2017G?
I want to get Xposed and if I do understand I need SuperSU 2.75 or above to get Xposed to work in systemless.
If there isn't another version could you guys help to get Xposed working on my phone?
That would be much appreciated.
EDIT: Well I'm dumb, I assumed Oki's guide only worked on the A2017U variant. Sorry guys :/
If you have the official version of TWRP you should be able to install the latest version of SuperSU.
Yeah I figured it out with the help of Oki's guide.
Thanks for the answer!
I'm having a problem where many apps do not get root unless I manually open SuperSU, which means that most root apps are not working properly because they can't work automatically. Is there another version of SuperSU or TWRP that I can flash to solve this problem?
I'm on A2017U B29 stock, SuperSU 2.79 flashed from TWRP 3.0.2-2

Did you make sure to disable system write protection? Boot into TWRP, open up the terminal emulator, and issue the command: reboot disemmcwp
I'm having a similar problem while flashing superuser. The error happens after the "patching sepolicy" line runs. The error prevents SuperSU from being installed at all. Any suggestions?
You need to flash twrp 3.0.3 or above and flash SuperSU 2.79
Latest SuperSU Causes Endless Loops on the Axon 7
Literally, every time I install the latest version of SuperSU on my axon I get an endless bootloop. These are SuperSU files I get directly from chainfire's website. There must be something im missing, or maybe im downloading the wrong version? Im not sure i was hoping to get some help. I just tried installing: SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.
>> Can anyone point me in the right direction of the latest SuperSU that works with the Axon 7 that doesnt bootloop it.
I remember that the Pixel phones had SuperSUs that were made for it. I am wondering does the same thing apply here?
I have installed everything right on my phone to the T. Everything was brand new stock.

Rooting Problem with P8-lite ALE-L21C185B525/B560

Hello
I am trying to root my huawei P8-Lite ALE-L21C185B525. I have tried all methods but haven't succeeded. (SuperSU , Kingoroot, etc)
I have unlocked bootloader and have also installed TWRP successfully. But when I install SuperSU zip file from TWRP and reboot, my phone stuck on Huawei logo (bootloop).
I also tried updating my firmware to B560 but my issue remains same on this updated firmware.
Is there any better way to root my phone or any solution for installing SuperSU.

You might need to install SuperSu in system-less mode. Check root tutorial form this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/mega-thread-root-unbricking-updating-t3400994 thought instead of doing all steps I think it's enough to install 1.zip then flash normal SuperSu zip (if it says it's installing system-less it works) then reboot phone, you might get 1 or 2 bootloops on first boot.
Try supersu v2.62

SuperSU randomly losing root?

I just got my unlocked G5 Plus (XT1687) today and I've unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP and SuperSU.
However, SuperSU seems to be randomly losing root access. It works for a little while, but then I'll get an error in SuperSU about root undetected and I have to reboot back into TWRP and reflash SuperSU. This has happened 3 times so far today.
Has anyone seen this issue in the stock rom? Is there some security process stealthily running in the background that deletes the su binary on a regular basis? I'm running build number NPN25.137-33.
Edit: SuperSU is running in systemless mode
I rooted mine using the Toolkit here yesterday and that afternoon it acted like i lost root. Root checker would say i didn't have root and just constantly flash that it was trying to get permission. I restarted it and it's been fine ever since.
I tried rebooting and it restores root temporarily, but I'm still losing it constantly (no set time interval, but I've seen it lost within a few minutes of a restart). Getting really annoying.
Would flashing one of the modified stock kernels potentially help this?
Hi,
I've the same problem. XT1685
Already done:
- reflash stock
- reflash updated stock
- reflash SuperSu 2.82 SR3 and SR4
Ever the same, after some (short) time the root is lost.
Unrooted from SuperSu app and installed Magisk 14.0: loses root after some moments!
Edit: after some reboots now its working. The root is maintained from 2 days. So Magisk 14.0 works.
Hi.
Here another confirmation. My XT1687 loses root rights once in a while. I’d say it’s about every 3rd day or so.. Simple reboot brings root rights back.
Config:
Build: NPN25.137-83
Kernel: 3.18.31-ElementalX
Root: Magigk 14.0
EDIT: When checking Magisk App I found out that Magisk crashed each time I started Superuser. So, I deinstalled Magisk and re-installed again. No problem ever since.
Always remember to un-optimize Magisk- (or SuperU-) App in battery options! "Boeffla-Doze-Control" also helps to avoid apps from falling asleep.
On StokROM + SuperSU 2.82SR5, I also experienced the same situation.
Running the following command no longer causes problems.
Code:
ln -s /su/bin/su /system/bin/su
Hello there.
I actually rooted my Moto G5 Plus according to this instructions. I flashed TWRP 3.2.1.0 and the last stabel SuperSU.
I also uninstalled SuperSU over "apps" on Stock Rom and tried to flash Magisk, but this causes in an error while flashing (It says something about "Error 1" and about the path, where the magisk.zip is, for further information I would try to flash again and tell you the whole error).
The latest thing I tried was running the command from highwaystar2699 over the terminal from TWRP, but still I loose root randomly.
Can anybody help? =(
Thanks in advance

Well, I can say, that after some updates of Magisk I don't experience the problem anymore. Neither me nor a friend who has the G5 (not Plus) have ever lost our root since being on Magisk Version 16.0
Maybe you should give Magisk a try...

Like I said, installing Magisk returns an error.
Nevertheless, after I ran the command from @highwaystar2699 and canceled the battery-optimization of SuperSU I've got still root after already 5 days of using the phone.
So, thanks for your help, for now =)
I have no ideas that you can solve your problem ...
What I got interested in your post(#8) is "I also uninstalled SuperSU over apps on Stock Rom".
If there is no mistake in my memory, SuperSU have an "unroot" menu, which should be used to uninstall SuperSU.
Did you uninstall by using "unroot" menu?
In any case, I am not sure how to recover the state of your g5plus.
I will not be able to help you. sorry.

Just boot into TWRP and open the terminal (you can find it under "advanced" or "tools", not completely sure right now) and run that command. Maybe you should check where the mentioned su-folder is located right now on your phone, 'cause in my case it was at a different location.
@highwaystar2699: Yeah, afterwards I also realized that unroot-option
So maybe I have to unroot with that option and retry to install magisk. I will try that maybe, if I should loose root again. Or when the next update comes. (I'm a little afraid about that. Sounds difficult to OTA-update after rooting your G5 Plus...)
Either way: Thanks for your help! If I try something, I will report about it here
Super SU working for G5 plus. I don't think so. It has some problems. Bootloops are frequent.
Sooooo, hello again all! @highwaystar2699: I lost root again after one hour when I had to reboot the phone so I just thought about: "Why don't give it a try now?"
So I flashed the superSU again in TWRP to get root, startet the SuperSU app and choose "Unroot". I was asked if I want to unroot because of an OTA update, which I answered with "no". The app closed and root was gone.
I rebooted into recovery and tried to install the magisk 16.0 zip aaaaaaannnnd...
...got Error 1 again.
At the point "Unmounting partitions", TWRP says
"Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/Magisk-v16.0.zip'"
Now I'm back to superSU again. Damn, I don't know whats wrong here =(
Short edit for @Yeshu_bablu: Yes, after installing superSU, you've got 2 to 3 bootloops. But only the first time. After it's installed, the phone boots normal.
So, according to you... Which is better? SuperSU or Magisk?
SuperSU is obsolete, twrp you need latest version 3.2.1.0 or higher number if updated.
Once twrp installed you can install the rom of your choice with or without gapps package of your choice.
Then you can install magisk 16.3 for root and modules if wanted.

SuperSu is root, TWRP is recovery, 2 different things.

I'm sorry, SuperSu or Magisk?
Short update and big thanks to @highwaystar2699 and @Wolfcity.
After I completely lost root with SuperSU, I tried to install Magisk but failed everytime with already known Error 1.
But finally, after I got a stock boot.img and flashed it and instantly (!) installed Magisk after flashing the boot.img, the phone startet normal and now I've got root without problems.
FIY: When I only flash the boot.img and don't root it in TWRP, the phone keeps bootlooping.
So, to give @Yeshu_bablu an answer: Magisk is better. SuperSu only make problems with Moto G5 Plus. Magisk works like a charm.

Help with installing Magisk on Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900V

I have read many threads and lots of videos and cannot seem to get the Magisk installed.
I have flashed back to stock many times with (N900VVRUEOF1_N900VVZWEOF1_N900VVRUEOF1_HOME.tar.md5) in order to try multiple methods.
Rooted with Arabictoolapp - used rootchecker to verify/application also says true for root
followed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...guide-ob6-of1-root-bootloader-unlock-t3439010
installed SU from playstore to unlock bootloader using the adp method - shows developer mode to verify - using eMMc to verify CID starts with 15
followed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...l/official-note-3-verizon-bootloader-t3359370
installed twrp using official twrp app & also tried ODIN in another trial (picked verizon americas and got twrp-3.2.3-0-hlte.img.tar and twrp-3.2.3-0-hlte.img )
turned phone off and boot into recovery to verify; at this time i created a recovery
using MagiskManager i downloaded the zip (Magisk-v18.1.ip) and flashed using twrp - no errors but when i restart the phone it says Magisk not installed
next attempt was to extract the boot.img from the stock OF1 and then flash the Magisk - no errors but when i restarted the phone it says the same thing - Magisk not installed
another attempt was to patch the boot.img and got a patch_boot.img then using TWRP i flashed the patch_boot.img - restarted and magisk not installed
after further digging, i tried another method which was to unroot using SU, reboot, go into recovery to then install Magisk - magisk not installed
*note each attempt to install Magisk unrooted my phone
*was able to use Magisk-uninstaller-20190204.zip to uninstall Magisk manager from recovery - icon went away
anyways i am completely stuck now. any suggestions or comments on my approach?

Did you uninstall SU before trying to install magisk. The two together may cause conflict.

Try twrp 2.8.7 hltevzw. You are using the stock ROM which is android 5. Twrp 3.1 and higher is for android 7 and up. I missed that the first time I read your post.

what do you mean after normal reboot? so flash magisk in twrp. reboot. reboot again then install magisk manager? do you know what version of magisk i should run and where i can find the dl link?
What he means is you install the Magisk ZIP via TWRP in Recovery mode, reboot the phone, then you install Magisk Manager via the APK.
Go to magiskmanager dot com website which has the ZIP installer plus the APK for the Manager.
I only just recently tried to tackle this challenge. I also installed 0F1 with Odin, then rooted with Arabic. I was messing with Pokemon go and it wasn't happy I was rooted. I downloaded magisk manager, installed it that way. At reboot, angry message from Verizon that I have custom software and phone won't boot. I assume this is because I didn't install custom recovery.
If you figure a way to get this done, I will be grateful. One thing I don't quite follow. Magisk is a root method...so should we really be rooting the phone prior? Seems redundant and going against the whole point of magisk. Right?
I wanted to play around with spoofing GPS with PGO which requires making a GPS spoofer a system app (need root for that). Is that still possible using magisk?
I'll post any updates I have as well.
