I am trying to root my S5 G900F phone by flashing through odin, but the SuperSU keep says that su binary was not installed. I have tried to use other rooting method like KingRoot and one click root bus was unsuccessful. I have tried to manually installed su binary through flashing in twrp but also fails. I have been seeking the solution in the web but it seems that all of the solution for the su binary not installed problem does not work for me. Is there another way to root the phone? Thanks.
Is the oem unlock in the developer options on?
The method used here is outdated (CF auto root). The current method is to first flash TWRP in ODIN, then immediately flash the SuperSU zip in TWRP.
The alternative way is to use magisk for hiding root.

Hello there, I've been looking around online looking for a way to solve my SuperSu problem, but I haven't found a solution yet I was wondering if you guys could help me.
I installed my root using Odin and CF-ROOT I then realized I had both, Kingroot and SuperSU. Kingroot was the one with the root authorization and SuperSU did not have root authorization. Before I did anything SuperSU used to say "Binaries need to be updated use Normal Or TWRP/CWM," but after I used "Replace kingroot with supersu" It now says "No binaries are installed and SuperSU cannot install them." I'VE tried many methods to solve this. By the way I'm new to this stuff.
Methods used: About Device:
1. Flash updates binaries. 1. Model number: SM-G900T
2. Flashed SuperSU update. 2. Android version: 4.4.2
3. Tried to eradicate SuperSU.

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.
So basically whenever I flash a stock rom on my s6 edge plus my phone bootloops and I get the drk check error, but when I root it with su or cf auto root it seems to fix the drk check error, I want to flash stock rom on my device without having to root it. I think in twrp it says something about me having systemless root or something, I assume that means my phone is rooted when it doesnt have any roms or something, I need help trying to flash stock rom without getting a bootloop or having to root so Im assuming I need to unroot system, I have even trying flashing this unsu zip which is supposed you unroot, also when I open super su I have tried unrooting through settings and it seems to work but there is a remaining root somewhere as I am unable to use parralel space or snapchat or barclays.
G'day,
I have followed the instruction using the download on this page for SM-G900I without success. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537
I found another Telstra user who used the kltezt version, so I tried with the version from https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ even though the build version is different. This time SuperSU asked to disable knox, I did so, verify with Root Checker, doesn't work. Reinstalled using Odin without auto reboot, SuperSU asked for New user or expert, I chose New User, nothing.
EDIT---
When using Root Checker it would ask for permission to verify, I would try and click button which would not work.
I have just uninstalled SuperSU and Root Checker worked. I have reinstalled SuperSU updated binary and restarted and now Root Checker fails.
Android: 6.0.1
AP: G900IDVU1CQD1
Any suggestions?
Samuel
G'day sir.
CF-Autoroot is the old method of rooting the S5 and it will fail in some cases because it is no longer updated. The current method of rooting the S5 is to use either the SuperSU zip from the SuperSU XDA thread or magisk from the Magisk thread. What's the difference? Magisk allows to hide root, superSU works better with some apps and with xposed.
Go to the TWRP website, locate the files for the G900F (klte) and download the latest version to your PC. Then flash the .tar file in ODIN under AP/PDA.
Immediately after flashing, you must reboot to recovery (hold power button, home button, volume up button) until you see "rebooting to recovery". Once in TWRP, flash the SuperSU or magisk zip then reboot.
All the best, Saber
Thanks for your reply. Though had to go do some hard Googling to fill in the gaps of the installation process, like adding the SuperSU zip to the memory card.
I was about to say it didn't work again, but then it clicked why I may not have been able to grant access in the past. I use the night overlay app "Twilight" and I know the system doesn't like it running when doing certain tasks and asks you to disable the overlay. I disabled Twilight and it worked. Double checked and it is definitely the problem. All that for probably nothing.
Now I can install apps to the external SD, well that's the plan anyway. I've had enough manually moving them over manually to make space.
Thanks once again for your assistance!

I Have SM-G5520 Nougat, I rooted it successfully here
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...g5520-g5520zcu1brb1-nougat-root-twrp-t3772104
But, as mentioned there, I run Flashfire, Grant root access, Browse for GApps.zip and flash it, but after click on flash screen goes black and didn't show any proccess of flashing GApps.
After waiting 2 - 4 Hours, There was still a black screen like my phone is off and I restart my phone. Now there is not a single GApp installed there. Please help me to flash GApps.
I continue my research on rooting and flashing and i got some points that are below,
1. Magisk is system-less root that's why when ever i tried any app to modify system folder or root directory my phone got restart.
2. I tried SuperSU system-less but the device isn't going to root.
3. I tried King Root, Kingoapp, OneClickRoot, Dr. Phone root, iRoot and much more with and without PC but my device was not going to root but only Magisk root my device.
4. I tried CFAuto Root with all modifications but due to my phone didn't have "OEM Unlock" option, flashing CF Root cause failure.
5. I tried to push GApps into Original Firmware, but that way takes a lot time and i failed there because of security reasons (And that was my first attempt to modify "Firmware" I must failed ).
All the conclusion of my work let me know that i have to root my SM-G5520 Nougat as system root that will going to work 100% to flash GApps.
Now Please help me to root system wise and flashing GApps.
Thanks Advance
