Download SU binary (su-bin-3.1.1-arm-signed.zip) from androidsu.com and flash the ZIP via recovery. If doesn't work, try to flash Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip

"su binary is not updated" - problem updating

Hello,
I have stock rooted rom 2.29.405.5 (with Apps2SD).
Recently superuser app has been updated to the newest version.
After that I am getting a notification about "su binary not updated".
Clicked on it and got the "Updating Binary" which informs me about an update of the su binary.
The problem is that when I click "update" the whole procedure fails when it tries this "Remounting /system as rw".
What is wrong?
Thank you!
Are you s-off? If so not sure what the problem is. If you're not s-off, that's your problem

u have 2 options:
-uninstall the super user update, and continue to use the old one
-install the super user update (apk + su binary) flashing from the recovery this zip
Thank you both for your replies.
I am still s-on but planning to change that.
But for now, I copy the zip to the sd card. Reboot into recovery and use flash zip from sd? Are there any other things I have to do before flashing the zip?

If u updated super user through the market, uninstall the update..after that flash the zip in recovery
I haven't done any actions to update it, more likely, it was automatically updated via market.
Unistall the update? How? If I unistall something, this would be the application itself (I mean I only know unistalling applications - is there any way to unistall updates?)

u never looked in settings/applications?
super user i guess is a system app (like gmails, gmaps, gtalk, etc)..so u can't uninstall those applications..but u can uninstall updates for those applications..mean for system apps u can only uninstall updates
so go in settings/applications, select super user app and u should see uninstall updates, if yes do uninstall updates, if not then its ok and flash the zip
do a nandroid backup in recovery before touch something, just to be sure
I hadn't checked system applications so far.
Unistalled the update, did a nandroid backup and flashed the zip!
Everything OK now!
Thanks a lot for your help!
Many many thanks!!!
what does the zip need to be named?
Does the zip need to be named update or does it stayed named like it is?
Name it whatever makes you happy. Remember its whats on the inside that counts.

I'm getting the same warning message with my market updated su, when I open Titanium Backup but it hasn't affected anything. I just ignore the message and everything still seems to work. Am I missing something?

I have uninstalled SU and installed the super user update and I get the following error when I update the binary updater:
"Failed to find currently installed su binary. Update cannot continue"
UPDATE:
I downloaded and installed the binary file (su-3.0-bin-efgh-signed.zip) from androidsu.com and now get FC error "The application Superuser has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
Thanks for your help.
When this issue occurred for I found that just by simply reflashing the SU zip in recovery and then running the update fix it seemed to fix it. I think for me it may have had to do with using an outdated version though.
su binary update failed..
Hi, I'm using CyanogenMod 7.1.0 RLS3 for Kaiser.. Today I got a "su binary outdated" I try to update it.. Going ok until "Moving su to it's final location - Fail" how to solve this? guide me please.. I'm newbie..
Hi, I had rooted my Garmin-Asus A50 about a year ago with help from these fora. Also installed Titanium backup and other related apps.
My question: upon waking thisr morning and waking the phone, a message said "SU binary outdated - tap to update" I let it update without thinking -but immediately had doubts about some trojan doing this to gain access.
So I switched off the phone and am trying to gather some info here and on WP. From your post I see that this 'update' message may be legit - or am I wrong?
Thanks ffor any further tips.

For those having problem of updating Super SU binary after flashing rom [ROM][ARC/S][.587]JELLY SANDWICH 6.0 STABLE[22-09][Aroma][Uploaded] or any other rom that have the same problem.I found a way to fix it..

2. Disable superuser for Super SU in settings>Superuser
3. In old superuser, go to info and then tap the "tap to check updates" and update the binary.
4. Then, enable superuser in Super SU and voilaa!!... try it..

Hello, My HTC Desire has
MIUI Android v. 4.1.1
Kernel v. 2.6.38.8
Build nr.2.8.17 MIUI
I am trying the above unsuccesfuly
SuperSU 0.96 will say Installation failed when trying to update (tried several times)
I then disabled as advised and I get a message that uninstallation failed (even if the button is then in the off position)
I install the old superuser, I tap to check updates and I get the following errors:
1. The checked version is 3.0 rather than 3.1.1 (which I think it's not an error since I am using an older version)
2. Everything is OK until is trying to Copying su to system... fail!
Any ideea why?
Thank you!
P.S. Nevermind, I found SU update FIX on googleplay and it did the job.

Thanks a ton for this fix! I was about to throw my phone out of the window but you saved its life.
In step 2. I think it's easier to say: Open SuperSU and deny root access on the Superuser prompt.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not criticizing (destructive).
I just say this because I couldn't find an option to add a denied application in Superuser. Maybe I didn't search too hard...
This works with Xperia-ICS v2i ROM port (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1855768).

Issue Resolved :"Supersu binary failed"
Amigos,
Who is having issue of SuperSU Binary update than they should download the attachment which is an update for SuperSU & install or flash it through "Recovery mode" & reboot. It takes while to get up your device but it works for me.
Cheers.
This is what worked for me:
1. Install Superuser by ChainsDD.
2. Install SuperSU.
3. When the Superuser prompt comes up, click allow.
4. Update the binaries.
Thanks

[Q] su binary

I ODIN the tar to get the OUDHS Custom Recovery, which is fine, but it didn't put the su binary, and thats why my superuser app is unable to provide the root access.
is there a separate zip file which let me just flash the su binay?

Lost root access! (Verizon CDMA)

I rooted by phone using the GNex toolkit on 4.2.2. I did everything right, SU had permissions, etc.
I downloaded Purity ROM, leanKernel, and GApps. I installed everything as normal, wiping cache and dalvik after the Kernel. I hit reboot and it came up "Your phone does not have root access, would you like to you? (gave some directory next to yes)" something along those lines.
Not sure what to do, I hit no hoping it would bring me back into recovery but it rebooted my device. The ROM works and everything, but I have no root access, and as far as I'm concerned, there's no root for Verizon 4.3.
I did create a backup of my stock ROM and the ROM right now works perfect.. but how do I regain root access?! I can't even boot into recovery out of ROM Manager.
Help would be much appreciated!
cont...
Further more, I rebooted to recovery, hit reboot, yes root, and it rebooted. Root checker says I don't have root access.
Open up SuperSU, "The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" >Continue "How would you like to install SU binary?" >Normal "Installing, please wait" "Installation failed! Please reboot and try again!"
ERGG! Rebooted and got the same thing.
cont...
Android Root User says "You are ROOT."
I deleted SuperSU and installed Superuser. Go to Binary Updater...
-Downloading manifest... okay!
-Parsing manifest... okay!
-Latest version = 3.1.1
-Checking installed version = legacy
-Fixing database... okay!
-Unpacking sutools... okay!
-Checking current install path... /system/xbin/su
-Downloading new binary... okay!
-Gaining root access... fail!
BUMP!
Will flashing my backup give me root privilege again?
Even if, are there any other solutions?
Try installing SuperSU zip via recovery:

[Q] Shiny Rom + Fancy kernel = root problem

Welcome. I have a problem with access to the root after changing the kernel. After changing on the fancy kernel every time I lose root. Su gives the message: binaries su are not installed and su can not update them, this is a real problem ... Flash Su from recover does not help. Is there a solution to this problem?

I'm in the same trouble. I've tryed to switch from supersu to superuser by koush without affect, the problem is still here.
The strange things it's that I can gain root access in the terminal emulator with the SU command
