[Q] Which SuperSU and Root Checker is right - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Samsung Galaxy Tab3 SM-T210R
I have been through pure hell trying to root this thing, every time I install TWRP or CWM, I reboot and verify root and check SuperSU. Device is not properly rooted and SU says no binary is installed. Then another Root checker app says congrats on gaining root access and SU is installed and busybox is installed. Please tell me whats right. Thanks

[Solved] Help - No root after successful Revolutionary....

I rarely ask for help, 'cause I can normally figure this stuff out.
I'm trying to help a friend root his EVO 4G, long distance. I don't have physical access to the device.
Followed the directions for root using revolutionary with hboot 2.16.
Revolutionary worked and flashed CWM recovery. He now shows Revolutionary with S-OFF. He booted into recovery, flashed the superuser apk then rebooted. The phone came up just fine, and the superuser app is installed, but NO ROOT.
Even when he tries to update the superuser app (in app) it says "Gaining root access........Fail".
Other apps report no root access.
Thoughts?
May have something to do with not having enough system space?
I could be completely off.
download this file and flash it in recovery and you will have root http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/su-bin-3.0.3.2-efghi-signed.zip
no its not superuser its the binaries needed to have root for superuser

[Q] Problem with rooting

I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S4 and I tried rooting it using the CF-Auto-Root, but when I open SuperSU, it says "there is SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it." I decided I want to root it all the way but I can't figure this out. How do I root this phone?? Do I have to use the CyanogenMod?? Please help!!

Ok, So my question would be did you use Odin to install CF-Auto-Root? Most I've seen use it and have no problem. Odin installs it then the phone reboots and that's when a special recovery is installed and then loaded and the root process is done. After that stock recovery is again installed. Not positive but I heard there may be other methods named similiar to this that will root phones that have 4.3 and lower.
Make sure you have the version mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2294005
Also. if you think for some reason that your phone maybe rooted but SuperSU isn't working right you could always go to the Play store and download Chainfire's SuperSU and then install it. If your phone was truly rooted this should fix SuperSU

I have the SGH-M919 model and yes I used ODIN, but whenever I open SuperSU, it comes up that it has no binary. I already checked and I have the chainfire version.

[Q] SuperSU/Root Problems

I'm not exactly new to the rooting scene nut lets just say i'm not that expert at it.
THe problem im now getting is on my Samsung Galaxy Note 2(Sgh-1317m) i had it rooted when i was on DN3 but then i wished to update
to 4.4.2, my root was gone. When I tried to re-root it via CF-Auto Root it flashes successfully no probs. But when i open SuperSU it says no SU binary installed and im not able to access root. Is there any way to get root successfully on 4.4.2 or do i have to get back to DN3.
Get back to me ASAP. :good:

xtrmewhacker
Special Thanks To Chainfire who made rooting so damn easy!

This is my first post to XDA. I'm brand new to rooting though reasonably competent technically. Wanted to root for access to root-only apps, but wanted to wait for 4.4 in case I ended up unable to receive future updates. 4.4.2 OTA came in yesterday so I tried flashing. Used Odin to install TWRP recovery then used TWRP to load TeamEpic Root From Recovery. When done, root apps said I was not rooted. Loaded SuperSU and it said SU binary was missing and I should reroot. Found CF-Autoroot and loaded it through ODIN. Red-logo thing appeared and system recovered but apps still said no root. Loaded "Root Checker Basic" from play store and it confirmed still no root. Tried to run SuperSU but found it to be missing. Reloaded SuperSU from Play Store. As SuperSU was finishing installing, popup message said something about Root Checker wanting access. I said "grant" and then found that Boot Checker verified root access. So I'm on my way.:victory:
Suggestion to xtrmewhacker: remove SuperSU and reinstall from Play Store.
SuperSU couldn't install the latest binary? I did the same as you, install 4.4 stock, flash cf-auto root, installed supersu from play store.
Supersu then installed via normal (not twrp), disabled knox, and rebooted. Everything was fine after.

I got the same thing with cf-autoroot. I went in to philz touch and applied root there. Reboot and you should be able to dl from the market or do like I did and flash the zip version.

Q rooting FNC1

okay so I used towelroot, which said it gave me root access, but when ever I go to twrp app to flash the recovery.
never prompts me for root access.
I try and use the app anyways, and it just force closes.
so i tried using just in general anot root app, but nothing works..
so im wondering if I did something wrong or if there is another root method I should be using.
Thanks so much!
build number: FNC1
Download and run Root Checker Basic. It will confirm or deny root. I also install SuperSU which manages app access to root level activities. Give it a try!
Make sure you installed SuperSU and installed the binary
FNC
