Hi guys!
I am a Yureka user. Yesterday I updated the phone with latest CM nightly build and lost root privileges, now i am not able to root it again.
SU update method doesn't work any longer nor does the root access in developer options.
I flashed this updte using custom recovery (CWM).
Please guide me how to retain root after this update and also if i need to be on stock recovery.
Thank you!!!
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.

Are you on TW stock rom or Custom Rom? do you have recovery flashed?
What is this Whenever I uninstall kingroot I lose my root access.. 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 lije king root
Have you tried flashing supersu.zip in recovery?
Yes, sir I tried from TWRP
It says: There is no SU binary installed, and super SU cannot install it. There is a problem. .

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.
I flashed purenexus rom .previously I was using truepure rom. I did clean install twice . wiped everything except internal storage and then installed purenexus rom and dynamic gapps then wiped cache and dalvik . everything went smooth but now device isn't rooted any more . I installed super su and it said root not detected
Can you please guide me how to root again . which root method is best ? And how to do it ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

You'd be good to go with Magisk (get the v12 and flash the zip in TWRP)
Now days ROMs don't come pre-rooted as often as concern for system modification and apps that block use on rooted phones.
Magisk has the ability to do root without modifying the system partition (so called systemless root) also has option to quickly hide root
If you don't care about that you can follow the guidelines suggested above by the other answer and you'll find SuperSU systemless root, and you're good to go.
Quick note, if superSU fails (bootloops) read the TWRP log while you installed SuperSU and try to find in which mode did it got installed. This is because older versions of SuperSU failed to detect Moto Clark as systemless and went for system root , which caused bootloop. There are instructions on SuperSU thread on how to force systemless root method
Hey I just updated my phone through twrp and I lost root access & custom recovery. Could someone tell me how I can root my phone now again? Info of my phone is below in the pic
P.S: I used KingRoot before and it worked. But not anymore.

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.
