I got the update and it is downloaded b/c I see it in the recovery mode. I scroll down to install update, but it will not work.
My phone is rooted, I have CWM, and it is unlocked. How can I get my update completed? I really want to keep stock right now. I don't want to keep checking up on updated ROM's , etc...
Thanks so much. Please - if you respond, break it down easy. step by step. That is what I need. Basics. thanks.

As far as my knowledge goes. You wont be able to install OTA's on rooted GN.

It's CWM recovery that messes it up not root.

Assumption is the mother of all **** ups...so i assumed that if you are rooted the most common thing is that you have CWM installed...
So how do I get there from here? Do I need to uninstall something and then do the update??
Thanks for the help.

Ok, I can try that. How do I do that? I am not sure I am familiar with fastboot. I can follow step by step instructions though.
Did you try the instructions on this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170&highlight=ota+update
You seem to have the same set up as I do. I've just updated no problem with method 1.
The only instruction missing is that you have to re-root afterwards (you can check with Titanium).
When re-rooting, it got stuck on the Google image. I disconnected from the computer and pulled the battery out. restarted and voilá, all done

As I'm sure you all have read the post above this one, neither CWM nor root prevent you from receiving the OTA update. CWM, however, will prevent it from automatically installing, but CWM can easily install the OTA. See link in post above.

Yes, but if you flash the latest images, you will lose all your data...
I tried doing it via CWM. It was aborted. I just went ahead and uploaded a ROM. The Android Revolution HD one. I kinda gave up trying to do the OTA myself. Thanks for hte help anyway.

Flash Superuser (Link)
I tried flashing su.zip and it works, however apps are not asking for root permission anymore. Instead they just freeze or say they can't run privileged commands
EDIT: adfree for example will just run as if nothing was wrong, but it doesn't actually update the hostfile, and Superuser doesn't show AdFree in the list of apps
It just seems as if none of the apps are asking for superuser permissions anymore.

Try to clear data and cache from SU. Are you sure you flashed the latest version? See link? If that does not help maybe delete and reinstall.

I finally fixed, you were right, it was an older version. I went on the superuser website and got this version: Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
I would post a link but I don't have enough posts.
Flashed in recovery and it works now.

How do I 'flash'
with Clockworkmod recovery
I tried to flash through cwm su.zip and gave an error, something with 0 . How do I do it manually?
I tried to install latest version of Super user, but i get error status 0 in CWM.. Help please
How to install cwm recovery? I just flashed my nexus with stock 4.0.4 and flash this kernel..
Check my sig, kids.
Make sure to follow gsm/cdma downloads and you'll be butter.
OK I'm not sure which update broke my root, but I am on IMM67I
I noticed too that in the superuser app there were no requests, and when going into a terminal and typing su I get 'permission denied'.
First port of call was superboot v4.. that hung at the google screen. Then I temp booted CWM and flashed su_ICS_GN.zip...
Once booted still no access in terminal (permission denied), so I deleted su and superuser.apk (how? Surely I need su to delete these?), then flashed again.. exactly the same.
Downloaded the linked file above and got:
Error in Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
(status 0)
installation aborted
Incidentally, this is the same version of su that is in su_ICS_GN.zip
When going into superuser and trying to update the binary, it says 'cant get root'..
Downloaded just the binary only and get exactly the same as above (installation aborted). Looked at the update_script and cannot see anything wrong....
I've just tried to boot an unsecure image so I can push the new su binary.... stuck at the Google screen...
Very confused...
---------- Post added at 10:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------
OK I used the 'Galaxy Nexus Toolkit' which must have an updated insecure image I guess to push the right su binary..
I had to manually get it into bootloader mode as it didnt reboot (even though it detected the phone at adb).... and then the script continued OK..
i have unlocked Sir G nexus , unlocked with odin method by chainfire (after install 4.0.4 my phone get unlcoked fortunately )
i have andoid system recovery <3e> and there is apply update from cache !
and when i go into it there isnt any file i can update .
i can not root my device now , some giude tells me use some command prompt to flash , that i can not find it either !

Good Morning All:
I got the phone rooted and the CWM recovery installed but for some reason, it didn't appear to have installed the SU Binary.
When I boot the phone, it says "Unlocked" but it doesn't have the usual "Tampered" word. I used the Root Checker app and it says its not rooted correctly.
Any idea how I can manually install the SU Binary?
Many thanks for the replies.

I have already downloaded the SuperSU from the market but it didn't work. I dont think this program actually installs the SU Binary but is more of a management program once SU Binary is installed.
Would actually flashing the CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip program, actually install the SU Binary? I'm worried about installing it as I don't want to brick the phone.
Suggestions?

Unable to help as I have no idea about Sony device; never play with one.
Maybe other people can help.
Why don't you post your question on forum for Sony device ?
Try Reflashing your rooted rom, assuming you have a titanium backup or another backup of some kind and then see if you get anything
Can I update SU Binary using Root Explorer. Because my phone can't unlock bootloader and I also can't update using SuperSU because when trying to update it forre close. I'm currently use SU Binary version 3.0.3. I download SU Binary file version 3.1.1 on Superuser page and then I open that zip folder > system > bin > su. I found the su file on that zip file, so can I replace that su file that I downloaded with existing file on my phone >system > xbin > su. Are this way safe.
Thanks in advance.

if you do not have clock work mod recovery installed you cannot use the su zip file because the ability to install zips in the recovery is only made possible through the clock work mod, further more the person who asked if they could use root browser to install su binary, this is not possible because you have to have an su binary and be rooted for you to even use root browser to even look at the root of your device, my apolagies mates but you are stuck with what youve got unless you write your own firmware and rom for your android and put an su binary into your rom

same problem, wifi not working and Root Explorer wont open
you might have wrong kernel
you might have denied permission for WiFi
you might have denied permission to root explorer
open your super user app look at the logs and see
also make sure the automatic response is set to PROMPT and not deny
plus just check "trust system user" so you don't have to constantly allow WiFi and other system apps that normally already have root permissions

Hello all,
I recently got my hands on a Note 2 running Android 4.3 on the MK6 bootloader. I have done a bit of research, but am still somewhat confused about how to root the phone. If I am correct, I just use Odin to flash this:

Onto the phone to have root access, correct?
Next, if I want to have CWM, I flash this:

If there are any steps I am missing, please let me know. I would like to procede with as much knowledge as possible to avoid bricking the phone. I am aware that doing this will trip the Knox e-fuse, and I am ok with that.
Thanks in advance!

Superuser installation issues after installing over SuperSU
It seems SuperSU is writing a file that is confusing Superuser installation on stock builds. If you want to install Superuser over SuperSU, you will need to manually remove the /system/etc/.has_su_daemon file.
I have the /system/etc/.has_su_daemon file.l I'm creating a CWM zip to remove it.
Hopefully that's the solution.

And it wasn't ..... I created a flashable zip that deleted them and it didn't work.
But I did kick it's a$$.
Like I said earlier I running the 【ROM】【March 01】【4.3】Note2_lte_e250_R7. 2 . It's a N7105 port for the ATT.
So I knew there was something called a Multitool in the N7105 threads from Dr Ketan.
I flashed that in TWRP, it's an aroma install type flash, so I only choose Root and install Busybox.
Like all of our other flash installs it looked like it completed successfully.
Every flash or ODIN I've done or most today, I've gotten into adb shell and did
ls -l /system/xbin/su. never saw the file.
After flashing root and busybox I finally saw
[email protected]:/ $ ls -l /system/xbin/su
-rwxr-xr-x root root 100452 2008-08-01 05:00 su
Woo Hoo !
Got into phone, ran supersu, still said no binary.
Not sure why I did this really buy I typed su while in adb shell, Supersu window popped up on my phone, I clicked accept and all root stuff is working.
I have no clue why this worked. But it did, for me anyways. Hopefully it'll work for you, Luigi.

And it wasn't ..... I created a flashable zip that deleted them and it didn't work.
But I did kick it's a$$.
Like I said earlier I running the 【ROM】【March 01】【4.3】Note2_lte_e250_R7. 2 . It's a N7105 port for the ATT.
So I knew there was something called a Multitool in the N7105 threads from Dr Ketan.
I flashed that in TWRP, it's an aroma install type flash, so I only choose Root and install Busybox.
Like all of our other flash installs it looked like it completed successfully.
Every flash or ODIN I've done or most today, I've gotten into adb shell and did
ls -l /system/xbin/su. never saw the file.
After flashing root and busybox I finally saw
[email protected]:/ $ ls -l /system/xbin/su
-rwxr-xr-x root root 100452 2008-08-01 05:00 su

Thanks for all the info!
So, let me get this straight:
I don't need the ROM you're running on my phone. What I should do is find the Multitool, flash it via recovery, and root and Busybox. Then, connect my phone to my computer to run adb (which I don't really know how to do, so I'll have to look that up), type in su, and then from there everything should work as normal.
Also, an extra piece of information I forgot to mention earlier that you might find useful: SuperSU does NOT start at all; it just immediately closes when I click the icon, and then the Knox warning comes up. Did this happen for you?

Really have no clue.All I know is it worked for me.
For me SuperSU opened all he way. It told me I didn't have the su binary, do a manually install. Everything I did, did not work until my last post. 99% sure it will work for you.
For ADB use this....
http://four-nineteen.com/veronica/XDA Developers/Nook Tablet/DRIVERs/ADB + Fastboot + Drivers.zip
Unzip and save only the files that start with ADB. Create a directory like ADB under C:\.
Copy all the ADB files to C\ADB
Go to command prompt in windows, cd to c:\adb directory (whatever you created)
Type adb devices. Make sure it has a device listed
C:\xUltimate-v2.4.2\jar>adb devices
List of devices attached
8675309JennieJennie device
If so, type adb shell
C:\xUltimate-v2.4.2\jar>adb shell

Just found something else that works.... I've tried it also.
Flash the AGNI kernel. (Awesome addition to a ROM)
https://app.box.com/s/9wlk6y1o50gbhmhvjp2u
Credit to @mjohnson4580 for fix.
Then flash the root update.

See what that does.
Here's info in the kernel

You need to be rooted before you flash TWRP. Have you already gone through the steps to root your phone?

You may be confusing flashing supersu in a custom recovery, with rooting your phone. There are a number of steps you have to go through before you can gain root on the Verizon Note 4. Flashing a custom recovery will not root your phone. You have to first follow the steps here, before you can flash a custom recovery, then flash supersu, in order to gain access to your root.

Try flashing the supersu zip in your custom recovery, instead of installing it through the app store. You also have an N910F, this thread is for N910V. You'd probably get a more accurate response if you posted to the N910F thread.

Manually flash SuperSU 2.79 (or later) if you are prior to 7.0.1 at this point systemless root becomes necessary .....and I don't know man . I have it working on 7.1.1 but it came loaded I didn't have to install ....hmmmm I'd start at chain fires web site see what he says . ignore anything involving cfauto root unless u achieved root by this means in which case u r in the wrong forum

When you flash supersu it does install app and binary :laugh: see if u got to the point u could flash from twrp it would signify you are on unlocked boot loader. Without unlocking root will only persist til reboot then process would need to be repeated. The only way to fix this is to be able to mod the boot IMG which requires developer mode to be enabled . this is notable by the presence of an unlocked lock on the first splash screen (secondary program loader splash)
