just flash latest super su via cwm

What ROM are you using/Where did you get the lollipop and how did you install it? How did you root your device? Do you have a custom recovery installed? (you said you lost your recovery so I am not sure ). We need more info.

As far as it goes I think after rooting it with CFroot you should update the SuperSU from the Playstore.
Success

Hello, I was trying to update my note 2 with DN3 kitkat rom today.. But didn't work! :/
I rooted the phone. I got correct root access.
Then followed the instruction to flash the ROM.
After reboot, I could hear the welcome sound(new) and saw the samsung animated logo..then it stuck there. I waited for some 15mins, but nothing happened, only the animated samsung logo.
I saw an issue in TWRP.. saying there was a problem with permission. I don't know what was it. I tried to fix permission, but it failed.
After nothing worked, now I am in the process of recovery from kies.
Perhaps I didn't have the right step by step guide; from rooting the phone to flashing it. :/
If someone could please help, would be great!.. I really want to flash my phone for the DN3 custom rom.
Thanks.
Why do you need to root when flashing custom rom? It is already prerooted. You only need recovery.

As per rooting instruction, it is mentioned that the device must be rooted before flashing a custom rom from stock rom.
While installing the recovery the device is rooted or another way that I tried was to root by CFroot first, which was successfully done then I got the super user access to install a recovery like TWRP,,

As far as i know for latest 4.4.2 stock roms,
Try to flash philz advance recovery(md5.tar) through odin & then flash su.zip from recovery.
Done.

I've never used a toolkit on my HTC devices, so I can't speak to their effectiveness. Perhaps they need an update to work with Lollipop.
I recommend using TWRP recovery (just because it's the one I used and I know it worked for me. Can't speak to CWM or Philz)
Flash the SuperSU update zip found here: http://download.chainfire.eu/695/SuperSU/

After flashing ROM, You need to flash SuperSu zip again to root. If You have recovery, download supersu zip from here and flash it via recovery.
thanks that worked

G3 has twrp but not rooted??

Hi all, there are a few apps that I want to install on my phone but requires the phone to be rooted. I tried to root it but the phone itself tells me that it is rooted.
However, when I install apps that requires phone to be "rooted" indicates that the phone hasn't been rooted.
How do i re root this phone? it seems that its not working when I use stump or purple drake. Thanks guys.
If you have TWRP, then just flash SuperSu ZIP from here https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip

Applied 7.0 ROM but no root

Hi hope you can help. Just recently installed this root and all is working well:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-android-7-nougat-t3449078
However I now need root access for a few apps to work. With super su installed it says that the device isn't rooted. But thought the ROM would make it rooted? If not how do you root this ROM?
Thanks
No need for a usb or computer since you have TWRP! Assuming you flashed that ROM with TWRP..
If you don't have TWRP that's bad.
Just go to http://www.supersu.com/download and download the "Recovery Flashable" version and flash it on to your device and after that you should be rooted! REMINDER: Never say yes when TWRP offers to root your device (it might even ask after you flash SuperSU)
