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.
Here's what worked for me:
Go into SuperSU
Disable SuperSU
Enable Survival Mode (pro version) (dunno if disabling SuperSU has any effect on this)
Uninstall Xposed Framework (if you have it installed)
Reboot (if you've uninstalled Xposed)
Download the OTA
Install the OTA
Upon reboot, re-enable SuperSU and disable survival mode
Reinstall Xposed
Profit
I even had some KitKat apps installed and the new Play Store. In reading others' accounts where it didn't work, something that seems to be missing is disabling SuperSU altogether. Good luck to everyone.

I thought I remembered how to do this from the last update, but I forgot the frigging survival mode.
So now I am trying to figure out how to get re-rooted.
Have they fixed the transition animation scale bug yet? That's literally the only reason why I would even bother updating from stock.
Also, OP, when you uninstall xposed, I'm assuming it obv reverses all installed mods. What I'm wondering is, are all the modules and settings and everything set up within xposed retained when you reinstall it, or did you have to start fresh?
I've read using Kingo can work. Never used it, even from beginning with root de la vega. I guess give Kingo a shot. Good luck.
I'm thinking I would still have some issues since I've used lucky patcher to disable all ads directly, on the app level. Maybe I'd have to reverse that first then uninstall lucky patcher. Ugh.

Did the same on mine a few days ago and working great. I didn't uninstall XF though, just disabled all of the modules prior to downloading the OTA. I also disabled SuperSU in SuperSU Pro when enabling survival mode. Don't think survival mode is available in regular SuperSU, but correct me if I'm wrong.
I followed your steps and it still errored. I have no processes running in Wanam framework, su is disabled and survival is on. Not sure why it errors. I see it try to boot into recovery for the update then it shows the android guy installing updates and then the android guy is on his back and says error. Then it restarts the phone. I wonder if safestrap is my issue. Any ideas?

I was having this exact same problem. I downloaded the original MJ7 file again. Disable supersu and put my phone into BOOT MODE. ODIN in the MJ7 again and then took OTA update. After that was all done I used kingo to reroot. Everything went fine and kept all my settings. Didn't have to reinstall a single app.

Lol. I did all this. Then I used kies to update. Worked but lost root... Survival mode didn't stick. Lesson learned. I'll try kingo again.
Edit: kingo worked, backed to rooted on mje. Anybody have a link to the newest su as kingo installed su. Then su asked to update which I did. The play store says my su pro 1.80 is up to date.

Stock mj7 firmware
Hi there,
The update's failing, so I guess I need to install the stock rom from ODIN. Where can I download the stock rom without giving my credit card number? I've only found one link, and they want a credit card. I won't give out my CC.
Thanks
... Nevermind, Apparently it did start downloading. I don't remember clicking ok for the download. I must be getting in a hurry...
Hi Guys.
As the title suggests root access suddenly disappeared from my nexus 6p yesterday.
DigitalHigh rom 7.0 was flashed through the latest twrp (3.0.2-2) and everything was running fine. I got the notification that the SU binary is out of date from PHH's SuperUser. Opened it but nothing really happened. So I downloaded superSU and suddenly it prompted me that the device isn't rooted. Being unfamiliar with PHH's SU I decided to flash the latest SuperSu through TWRP but the phone wouldn't boot.
Right now it has been restored to a backup taken just before flashing SuperSU which means everything is running fine and even android pay works however there's no root access. Is there something specific that might have caused this?
Are there any ways to re-gain root?
Haven't gone through the process of a clean flash yet as the phone is needed for work however even if all of that is done the SU binary will still need to be updated. Is there a different method for updating PHH's root?
So far I have tried clearing cache etc. but noting worked.

Phhusson's superuser and SuperSU don't mix. If you're back to booted, but not rooted with Phh, you'll need to either flash one of the Nougat boot images from the nexus/angler folder or the latest superuser.zip (I think the latest is r229) from http://superuser.phh.me
So I'm currently running on Verizon S7 Edge(G935V) on the latest QA4 Nougat 7.0. Followed the older rooting procedure before and I'm stuck with SuperSU 2.76. Started playing with my phone again tonight and flashed the S7E fixes.zip in Flashfire and afterwards the IMS Service has stopped message kept popping up. To fix this I downloaded root uninstaller from the market and simply uninstalled the IMS apps. Hope this helps somebody!!
For updating your SuperSU binary from 2.76 to the latest 2.79 you must flash the zip in Flashfire as well. Afterward you must refresh the engboot in download mode for it to work properly.

Hey! haven't seen anyone in this section for a while....
Why I am making this thread
So lately, I was looking through my old phones only only to find my old dusty Samsung Galaxy Note 2 lying around. It had already been rooted with kingroot... Needless to say, it's a spyware and my phone was drastically slow probably because of it.
Long story short, kingroot messed up all the files. Trying to install a working version of SuperSU gave me a headache. Finally, Magisk(v22.1) was supposed to work on the phone as it stated that it's the last version to support v4.4.2 but it doesn't actually work. It keeps on showing N/A whenever I launch it and a million different permutations that I had done in the process of rooting it using Magisk never worked.
This took me days, just jumping from one rabbit hole into another, finding old dead links which really made me so frustrated that at some point I wanted to throw the whole phone away.
That's why I'm creating this thread, so that I save the hassle for myself in the future and hopefully anyone who comes across this.
Updated rooting guide
This guide worked for my GT N7100 android version 4.4.2. It'd also probably work on other devices on other old phones which have an android version less than 5
Just make sure to backup everything before trying it.
Step 1. Flashing TWRP
Download the files from the following link
[TWRP]N7100 TWRP v3.3.1-0 ODIN FLASHABLE [23/05/2019]
Ok there we go this recovery is the latest 3.2.3-2 for t03g only don't flash this on t0lte(N7105). UPDATE: 12/04/2019: official support: https://dl.twrp.me/t03g TWRP 3.2.3-2 for N7100. Bugs: Format as F2FS doesn't work because the option isn't...
forum.xda-developers.com
Download ODIN
https://samfw.com/Odin/Odin3_v3.13.3.zip
Boot the phone into download mode(VOLUME DOWN + POWER KEY + HOME KEY)
Open ODIN and in BL choose the file that you've downloaded whose extension is or is similar to ".tar"
Click start
Step 2. Downloading and flashing Magisk
In here, you need to download a very specific version of Magisk, because anything above this version won't work.
NOTE: If you have installed any later versions of Magisk then make sure to uninstall them first, you can find out how to uninstall it from here(https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#uninstallation)
Download THESE VERY SPECIFIC VERSIONS of Magisk and Magisk Manager from here
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v21.4/Magisk-v21.4.zip
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v8.0.7/MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk
Get into TWRP recovery mode and then flash Magisk-v21.4.zip
Reboot back into the device and install MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk
That's the end of it, your device is rooted now
HOWEVER, once MagiskManager has been installed, it would say that there's an update available(a newer version) available that you could upgrade to.
NEVER EVER UPDATE!! Updating your Magisk version to ANYTHING above v21.4 will cause it not to detect root. This is a bug with Magisk and it would probably never get fixed because support for android <5 had been discontinued a long time ago.
In case you ever do accidentally update Magisk, you will have to uninstall the Magisk app and then install MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk again.
To uninstall and unroot your device, download this file and flash it with TWRP
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v21.4/Magisk-uninstaller-20210117.zip
Where I got the links above from
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v21.4/
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v8.0.7/
Magisk v22.1
This release is focused on fixing regressions and bugs. Check the v22.0 release notes if coming from older releases.
Note: Magisk v22 is the last major version to support Jellybean and Kitkat. Magisk v23 will only support Android 5.0 and higher.

Nope doesn't work as it wont be able to detect root at all, this is what had initially caused my headache to begin with
The last version of magisk that actually works on GT N7100 and probably any other old phone is the one that I linked in the thread

Thank you for the information.
I checked on Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini LTE i9195 (stock KK 4.4.2) and it works indeed at most version 21.4.
It is not possible to install MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk because it is installed together with Magisk-v21.4.zip.
