Please Help a Noob Here - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've rooted my device a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 model#SM-217S unsuccessfully but can't get the SuperUser application to install properly. I used the Kingroot app to root it originally. Now I can't add the SU application. I can get into the TWRP recovery which I am assuming that it's been rooted.
Not sure what to do here at this point
Thanks

Try installing a SU app manually? (Superuser/SuperSU on Google Play)
It may ask you to update SU binary trough recovery, creating a zip for you to flash

flash this through twrp and thank me in the morning

Just Rooted, Apps not requesting SU Permissions

I just rooted my new Verizon Galaxy Nexus (4.0.4) from my Mac using this method : http://goo.gl/7BnkU
I rebooted, and I see Superuser in the app tray, so I install Rom Manager from the Play Store. When I try to install Clockwork recovery from Rom Manager, I get the error, "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!" The SU prompt never pops up.
Could someone help please?

flash your recovery via fastboot, so that you dont experience issues with it later on. flashing recovery via rom manager youre almost guaranteed to have issues, like your recovery disappearing, later on at some point.
When I try to flash CWM via fastboot, I get, "error, cannot load." Also, none of my root apps are able to get SU permissions, and no prompt ever comes up from SU. What is going on?
Have you installed busy box??

Make sure you are actually rooted, there's an app in the market called root checker or something like that.

You don't need busy box for root

Same problem here. I have a VZW Nexus and I followed the steps to root and install CWM recovery, and when I rebooted none of these apps prompted for SU allow: Rom Toolbox Pro. ES File Explorer, Rom Manager and Busybox Installer by JRummy. Here is the rooting process I followed : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392336

I managed to root mine with motochopper. I had some issues getting it to root because running bat file as amin doesn't work and you have to run it as normal user.
Finally gain root with motochopper, always failed before
I fail gain root with motochopper, here is what i do the last time and get root
The latest version of Kingo Android Root did it for me. Just download it, put your cellphone into usb debug mode in the configuration settings, conect it to your computer via usb and run the program.
Since I'm a new user I can't give you the link to the download site, but you can easily find it through google.

I have successfully rooted my gt-s6812 using the vroot method . The only problem i had was that the superuser file was in chinese which i managed to get fixed using the latest version of supersu. after installing supersu it will ask you to install su binaries .Update the su binaries do normal install and then it will ask you to remove other superuser or su binaries just do yes and you are done.:good::laugh:

I have rooted using vRoot too. How did you unroot?

Flashback?

I think I need to do a Flashback on my Tablet so I can truly root it. I've tried a few ways to root it and all have failed. SuperUser won't open at all. Tried to Towelroot, even tried Stump Root and Stump says the device is already rooted, but I know it's not...
Just noticed I posted this in the wrong forum.

Got CWM into come up, but can't find the SU Zip file... So I just did the reboot from CWM... Now all it does is run a bit slower. SU trys to open, but stats Binary issues. Nothing changed, but slower device now.

When I got CWM opened I did a System wipe factory reset.
Then tried to use towelroot again... Didn't work...
Every link I found to SU was to the google play store... not a Zip folder...

Ok was able to run the SU Zip through CWM and had it rebooted after it was completed. Once it was on. I looked around on the Tablet and SU isn't installed. Running Root Checker Pro and it says the Devices appears to be running very Slow... Been on this screen for a few mins already.
Edit: Went back into CWM and Re-Booted... When I clicked on it a new page loaded and had an option to Fix Root... Choose it and Re-booted.
Downloaded SU from Google Play and it worked now... HUGE THANKS....
Well Crap... Says it's rooted. Xmod is getting Permission from Super User.. Mod installed in the Game... launch from xMod and the Game Crashes.
Ok opened SU and it triggered KNOX... Clicked to let SU to try and disable KNOX.... Been on that Screen for 5min so far...I also get a Security Notice Stating Unauthorized access to a secured area has been blocked.
..........................................................................
Unistalled SU and Restalled it. Let SU try and Fix KNOX again... Fixed it in just a Few Seconds.
Wroking 100% Now. The last issue was with XMod not the root.
BIG THANKS
