I'm running DHacker's version of CyanogenMod 10.2 on my Droid RazrM, and I'm having trouble doing tasks as root. I had the phone successfully rooted and working before I installed the ROM, but now I can't update my SU binary. SuperUser fails at "Gaining Root Access" and SuperSU reports that no SU Binary is installed. I've tried flashing the update as recommended but it doesn't appear to do anything. Am I using the wrong zip (UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.43.zip, MD5: 2acd41db58d782ca0d386d805bd29f5d)?

That did the trick! Thank you sah!
I feel like I can not ever find systemless root properly.
I recently reflashed the stock march security update factory image. I then reinstalled TWRP 3.0 and then flashed "BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-20160228150503.zip" found int eh thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
however when i booted, I wasnt systemless I was full root with the SU app and everything. i was able to unroot and now android pay works.
i would like to install SYSTMLESS ROOT what ever the latest is so that i can remove the XBIN folder and use the CHMOD trick to get androidpay working but I just cant seem to find the actual systemless root.
i end up digging around like 3 or 4 different SU threads and its frustrating lol.
is the BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-20160228150503.zip the systemless version?
thanks!
2.68 is the one I flashed from TWRP,, but before I applied the zip I accessed the Terminal in TWRP and typed
echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" > /data/.supersu
Then I flashed the supersu.zip. Rebooted to system then used Root Explorer to change the permissions of /su/bin to 751. Removed the xbin_bind folder. Restarted and it was systemless root.
Does anybody know if it's possible to change Superuser without having to flash stock ROM?
I'm on stock 7.0 and when I tried to install SuperSU I've got a bootloop (wrong version of SuperSU, there wasn't the wright version available yet) so I found a guide to root my device using another supersu (phh superuser) and it's working perfectly.
I wonder if there is a way to change from Phh superuser to SuperSU (now there's a compatible version with 7.0 available) without having to flash stock ROM again and lose all the data.
(Sorry if there's a thread already talking about that but, if there is, I didn't find it)
There's a screenshot of the superuser app
Supersu installation using twrp
To install supersu you need twrp. You have to use systemless mode to install supersu. For systemless mode goto twrp then advanced>terminal
Type:
echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" > /data/.supersu
Then install Supersu.zip.
For latest supersu visit official supersu download page.

@Dex5er You Need To Flash Elementalx Kernel Before You
Try To Flash SuperSU And SuperSU Version Doesn't Matters Its Universal For All Devices
Hey guys,
So when Super SU tells me binaries out of date and I try to update it is unsuccessful. At the moment flashing through TWRP will not work either as the latest modified SuperSU by badwolf that works with our device is 2.79.
Any idea how to update the Binaries ?
Thanks
SuperSU updated yesterday like normal, required updating binaries and I used TRWP. I updated the app with my Titanium Backup. Another app updated today but when I tried to back it up Titanium had lost root. Opened SuperSU and got SU Binaries occupied. Later today, I powered up again, SuperSU and Titanium both had new updates. I thought the problem was reported and fixed but it still does the same thing! :crying: Anybody??
EDIT: A known issue, https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...6-09-01supersu-v2-78-release-t3452703/page165
I had the same problem as well after SuperSU binary update
SuperSU 2.82 no loger have ability to replace Kingoroot and now it says "SU Binaries occupied". Really Chainfire?
SuperSU 2.79 was the best version.

Got this error too after installing 2.82. What I did was to Reinstall ("Cleanup to reinstall from Google Play" option in Settings) and then installed the 2.79 apk I have as backup. Got a prompt that SU binaries needed to be updated and so I did. Update was successful and seemed to do the trick since I'm not receiving the error and still have root.

The last SuperSU version I had before updating to 2.82 was 2.79. I was lucky I turned off automatic updates because the next SuperSU versions after 2.79 were buggy based on reviews. I updated to 2.82 because I thought bugs were already ironed out. It was a bad decision because I started having "SU Binaries occupied" error popping up. I solved this by reinstalling the 2.79 apk I had as backup.
Maybe you updated from a different SuperSU version that's why it didn't work. Make sure that you reinstalled the SuperSU apk version you were using before you upgraded to 2.82.
I've been reading the reviews and the most common reply by support is to flash the SuperSU binaries that corresponds to version 2.82. You can try that. Visit the XDA thread of SuperSU for the flashable zip.
If all things fail with SuperSU, you can try phh's Superuser as an alternative.

Sorry, I'm not an expert with these kinds of things. However, you can try visiting the XDA thread of SuperSU and ask for help there.
And also, I'll stay away from Kingroot if I were you. Search for "Kingroot malware/adware" on XDA for more information.
You can try 'phh's Superuser' as an alternative. You can also ask help there.
Install SuperSU 2.65 and update binary, then reboot, and update from Play Store, then update binary again (using "normal" option).

this solved for me, thanks a lot!
For me root works, but SuperSU SU Binaries are still "occupied" Device: Huawei y540
for me it helped to:
* install version 2.79
* run it and follow instructions
* update to 2.82
* reboot
* 2.82 works!
delete this please

No.
You need to root your mobile first. Kingroot works for me.
