[SOLVED] SuperSU Binary - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

SOLVED: I had to install an older version of TWRP (2.8.5.0) and SuperSU (2.46). Then I could update the binary.
I searched, but didn't find an answer for the T700.
I odin'd Lollipop, rebooted and was surprised that all my apps and settings were still intact. Was expecting to have to reinstall everything. Then I odin'd TWRP and all was good. The only problem is SuperSU v2.4.6 fails trying to update the binary. Any ideas?
Also, I have Korean writing on one of the Download (Odin Mode)screen. Is that normal?

You could have just installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3079488 and you would have had the most up to date version.
Flash a European bootloader (sboot.bin) that will give you English download mode.

[Q] Where to find SU binaries for P600?

Hi All!
I'm stuck in the state where I cannot complete root after update. I have no idea why this happened. I used autoroot first time on a stock. Everything worked like a charm. However In order to install update I have installed xposed and few modules to hide reset flag. After that I was able to update stock. Problem is that after this running autoroot and installing stock recover does not help. I not getting root despite the fact that I see instalation successfully completed and other people report success.
So question is - were to get SU binaries for P600 and where to put them? I'm able to reboot in TWRP using ADB if this matter.
I would also glad to reflush latest stock, but I do not know how to do it, because KIES says i'm up to date.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

[Q] TWRP replaced with stock recovery[t805]

I have flashed twrp recovery over odin. I can only get into stock recovery though. Usual fix would be to remove battery b4 rebooting, but I can not make out the battery on this device - seems integrated / hidden.
I am running 4.4.2 KitKat. Trying to root it to debloat.
Any ideas? Maybe remove some startup scripts or Idk...
EDIT: I got word that it seems to be either some hash verification in the new android 4.4.x kernel or even a locked bootloader on top. Is that correct? And, if so, what would be a good course of action now?
More info can be found imo when googling for

I don't know of any tablet that has user removable battery. I'm sure you have to be rooted before you can install a custom recovery. Are you using the rooting method in the development topic?
The question would be why you didn't use the recommended way of using Flashify to flash twrp?

You did not follow the instructions in the first post, but the latter ones posted by bodivas? Then you should consider trying those in the first post - they work for T805 as well.
The ones in the first post work. Flashify I found it in the CF-Root for T700 thread, it works fine on T805 as well, as long as you get the correct img file from the TWRP site.

yes bodivas is his name. it seemed to be the better method. but since it did not "accept" the image, although odin said success, I dug deeper and found out that there is supposed to be a hash check in 4.4.2 which keeps me from keeping the flashed image
Will flashify solve that problem and make TWRP "resident"? I would rather not flash the CF Auto since it is for a t800 not t805, but maybe i am overcautious:angel:

You don't get by in XDA by being cautious in everything. There's enough reports to tell otherwise.
Yes, using Flashify to flash TWRP replaces stock recovery. TOTALLY.
Requires root though right? So is not possible for me I fear Only way would then be CF Auto for t800...as we found out. TU anyhow.

Hi Guys. As following the instructions to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-chagallwifi.tar using Odin3 v3.09, my T805 reboots into recovery, the TWRP boot screen is blurred, and after the Menu appears, my device locks up and there is no way to reboot it. Force reboot by holding down the Power button doesn't work. I've been trying for nearly an hour and nothing works. The Task Menu and Return buttons are lit, but the screen is blank. Any suggestions on how to get my T805 to reboot normally?
Thanks.
UPDATE:
I found that 2.8.0.1 appears out of alignment on the screen, and I had to poke around until I found where the Reboot button was located. By chance I got it to go into Bootloader and the system rebooted. Once online I installed Flashify and installed TWRP 2.7.1.1 and SUCCESS!! Now my T805 is working normally. WHEW!!

SuperSU Error after cf-auto

Hi friendly xda android enthusiasts. I have, after many issues, finally rooted my gt-n5110 using odin and cf-auto. Workered without a hitch. Odin passed, tab rebooted, and BAM, "superSU has stopped working". I immediately navigated myself over to the playstore to reinstall SuperSU and for the first time i have ever seen it wouldnt allow me to. It only gave me a choice to open. No update no uninstall. Going into my apps list it was not present on downloads but was available on device list. Clucked it and no option to uninstall, only to force stop or turn off. So it is incorporated as a system with no access to it. This has me stumped. I have only seen old threads with answers to this and they are temp fixes. Need to know what i can do to fix this on a permanent basis and if someone could help me understand how and why this issue occured it would give me a better understanding and possibly prevent further issues. Thanks in advance guys.
Try the flashable version in this post after you install a custom recovery with odin.

This may be a very stupid question but i have to be sure. As i stated the odin DID pass the auto root and tab rebooted. But along with the superSU error i ran root checker and was unable to obtain root. Im assuming its because supersu is not embedded. So with that said is it still ok to attempt to flash a recovery to the tab?

Yes. Recovery is independent of whether or not you are rooted. You can install it from Android using tools like Flashify once you are properly rooted, but Odin works fine as long as you have a version of recovery in that format.
Flashing SuperSU from a custom recovery once it is installed should fix the superuser problems you are having.

Doing now. Thankyou. Fingers crossed.
I had the same issue on my 5110. The flashable root only worked for me until I rebooted, then it would lose root. What ultimately worked for me was to unroot with Kingo. Then with USB debugging enabled, re-rooted with Kingo (which took around 10 min).

If flashing SuperSU from recovery doesn't result in a successful rooted system someone should let @Chainfire know. I've never had a problem rooting a stock ROM that way but let's see what @mattdiehl83 reports.

Hi guys sorry for the delay in update. I ended up using VM ware and it allowed to operate as windows on OS X. I installed TWRP, went into the file manager in TWRP and removed the superSU, i then flashed superSU and rebooted. Once back to the tablet i went and restored services to superSU and went into the play store. And finally the playstore gave me the option the update the superSU. And then the rest was all normal installation of superSU. Hope this thread helps anybody dealing with these issues.
Glad you got it working. :good:

YOU DONT NEED TO DELETE SUPERSU 2.0.1
Install 2.02 apk and go to supersu, then to settings and push to /system
This is the easiest way. the one you found: go to recovery delete that and this. download supersu 2.0.2 apk and install it not the recovery zip i mean the APK! i didnt say the flashable supersu zip.
oh wait, yes you are a intelligent boy, you know everything.

That's a bit of a dilemma.
Unfortunately Samsung does not support using fastboot and bootloader mode (they call it download mode) so that standard SDK tool Google provides for Windows, Linux and MAC OS X isn't applicable. Your best bet would be to find a Windows PC that you can use to flash the recovery with Odin since that is the most common and best documented method.
Edit: NVM, somehow I responded to an old post of yours.

THANKS A LOTTT!!
It's exactly the same as before.
Look for how do I root here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711073
You unlock bootloader. Flash a custom recovery... I suggest twrp. It will ask you when you exit if you want to root. Say yes.
Boot into android, install supersu if it or superuser aren't there already. (from play store)
Or just flash recovery . Install a rom , likely rooted already.

I don't think you have twrp installed anymore, or not properly. You've flashed it with fastboot, since updating to lollipop? How did you update to lollipop?
Normal, I never had root before. Upgraded my phone to 5.0 and then i tried to root it
Rooted fine here with normal method. Just had to update super su.

recovery is not seandroid enforcing

I keep having this problem. I just tried both KINGROOT and CF-AUTO ROOT.
After doing this whole process through ODIN. I then try to flash the latest TWRP from their website : dl.twrp.me/jfltetmo/twrp-3.2.0-0-jfltetmo.img.tar.html
Then after that finishes, I try to boot into recovery and it gives me the message: recovery is not seandroid enforcing and just sits there.
I have a tmobile s4.
and I also checked if I am indeed rooted by using an app from the play store to check root and it shows Im rooted.
Any help would be great.

I have the exact problem, can you kindly explain in details how you went about it? I already downloaded SkipSoft.
Same issues here, buddy.
I tried to work on solving it out for approximately 8 hours and still no sign of success. Tried to reflash stock OS back on the phone via ODIN and it went successful. Tried CF-Auto-root file and it went through successful. But when it only came to the TWRP file, it went successful onto flashing on ODIN's side, but now something is interfering with the boot up process onto TWRP now. Hopefully there's a alternative towards this issue, since i've been wanting to reflash a Nougat OS onto the device.
Edit: I give credit to @Krappa420 for the mention of "SkipSoft Unified Android Toolkit" because i just installed the program on my laptop now and it went successful. But since i already had other materials pre-installed, some others with ODIN and ADB installed can just download this TWRP version here: https://dl.twrp.me/jfltexx/twrp-2.7.0.0-jfltexx.img.html
Edit #2: Seems that the TWRP version is too old to flash some of the newer OS's, such as nougat itself. Will find a way to update TWRP without breaking the boot up process, like the past attempts
Edit #3: After fiddling with TWRP versions 2.7.0.0 and up, i managed to get it capped up to 3.1.1 any future versions will most likely not work, so you're capped at 3.1.1 Here's the link for flashing it with ODIN: https://dl.twrp.me/jfltexx/twrp-3.1.1-0-jfltexx.img.tar.html
So you twrp 3.1.1 and it will work right

It wouldn't really matter what order you're using.
You can use CF-Auto-Root to root it for you while you have stock recovery still, and after you can flash to TWRP and use a custom recovery afterwards
Or you can flash TWRP first and flash a SuperSU zip file afterwards and it'll give you root while maintaining to have TWRP installed.
But to sum it up, it wouldn't matter what order you choose. Help yourself

Before anything, try to install the SuperSU app over on the play store, if it says you're not rooted, you may have to restart the whole process within TWRP and reflash the SuperSU Zip file.

Yeah try to re-flash the ROM again but this time flash magisk through TWRP since SuperSU is being trippy on your S4
Thank you for the help
Dummy me I found out from reading other forums you have to go in to tools and enable root after going in to recovery and flash the root file in the extra section.
Every thing works
Thank you so much
