I recently flashed the official 4.3 update that came out a few days ago. I have clockwork mod recovery and I flashed the supersu zip, which failed to work. I then flashed cf auto root via odin and now it says super su has stopped working when I try to gain root access. I really need root access because I back up my app data via helium backup (GREAT app btw). Please help! Thanks :crying:

I feel i have a peculiar situation. I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-T999 with the Hellfire 4.4.2 rom flashed to it. The default superuser app worked fine. But, i downloaded superuser because i like it better. I tried to update the binary but it always got stuck at the checking to make sure it is working part of the update. So, i downloaded the binary to flash through clockworkmod recovery. Now i have no root access whatsoever. I have no idea what to do. So my question is how do i regain root access and update the binary?
Hi i rooted my note ii with CF Auto root and im using original rom kitkat 4.4.2 but SuperSU is not working, i read that there is an update to fix that but i dont have twrp, jost the original recovery that comes with the ROM, is there a way to fix superSU with original recovery?
This is my wife's phone. I have a note 3 running stock 4.4.2 successfully rooted with cf auto root.
Hers is the S3 koodo version. Cf auto root runs and completes the process same as it did on my note but doesn't actually install either the su binary or apk.
I've tried towel root, device not supported and every google-able trouble shooting option available for towel root to no avail.
Kingo is also a failure.
I can flash twrp or cwm with hopes of flashing su that way, but neither of them detect or mount any storage (internal/external SD, system/data/cache partitions) and upon reboot they are automatically reverted back to stock recovery somehow.
Has anyone else successfully rooted the s3 i747m running stock 4.4.2 and if so what method was used? Thanks.
Just to be clear. I've spent hours on google and on XDA including all 3 methods from the following thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2787324
Can you load a custom recovery onto it?
Try using philz recovery. I've heard of that being successful when twrp and cwm have issues.

I used supersu to root my original phone on 4.1.1. this was maybe 2 years ago. i want to update to 4.4 but the root doesnt let me, so i uninstalled SuperSU hoping it would unroot and tried to update usin g"software update". still nothing--hitting the butting doesnt even register a click.
tried using odin to update but it stalls on one of the early processes (then i realized i needed root for this step!)
so i went to DL SuperSU again but installing it doesnt work: "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"
What to do??
The simplest way to get to 4.4.2 via OTA updates would be to use Odin and flash back to completely stock 4.1.1.
Using Odin will wipe all data files on the phone.
i used CF auto root to root my note on 4.4.4.
after i updated to 5.0.1 SU no longer works.
this is the error i received
"there is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem! if you just upgraded to Android 5.0, you need to manually re-root.
so my question is what do i have to do you "manually" re-root?
--thanks
Odin CF auto root again. It still works. After that you can use flashify to get recovery
what is the best place to down OEM stock rom?

What I did was flash TWRP through odin, and then flash SuperSU from TWRP. If you get a message from SuperSU saying the su binary is out of date, update it via recovery and it will update and that message will go away.
TWRP odin tar: http://dl.twrp.me/trltespr/twrp-2.8.6.0-trltespr.img.tar
SuperSU: http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/ Once flashed, I recommend updating it through play store and updating su binaries.
Thank you everyone for the help. I was easily able to get root back.
I have another question.
I'm not sure if this is a root issue or what, I imagine this that it is but, now whenever i touch the heart rate sensor it lights up, even when the screen is off / phone is locked. I know root breaks s heath is this the reason for the sensor being "always on"?
