You need to run the root program again with the ADB drivers. I had those same issues, Back when I didit , iRoot 6 allowed me to get back to Root, and then I updated to the better SU.

I tried doing that and it said superuser was already installed..can't remember verbatim, but it was along those lines.

Uninstall SU, re run the latest root ADB program, then it will not error out on SU, and you can install the better SU. Take your time, read, read, read, the instructions it will work.

How do I flash froyo beta with out root and clockworkmod???

Hello, I am not rooted and know nothing about clockworkmod. (I have tried rooting numerous times but no success. I'm thinking drivers) I would like to know if its possible to flash it with my epic being stock? I have searched and have turned no results about flashing it from stock. Everything refers to rooted. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

You can root with z4root couldn't be easier. No PC required.

You still need clockwork to flash.

Do I need to buy clockwork?

No but I am not sure if you can install it without a pc. Are you using the drivers from samsung?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yes I downloaded samsung galaxy s drivers from here when I tried to root. Never for them to work even with 2 fresh installs. Thanks for the info on the z4root, by far the easiest and fastest way I've ever rooted before. But ya I have samsung drivers.

is it the same driver you get from the samsung website? You said you got them here so I am just checking cause I am not sure. I got mine right from the samsung website.

I am afraid I won't be any help there. I haven't flashed clockwork yet because I am not sure how easy it is to remove (noob) so I am waiting until Froyo releases. Unless I can't find an easy method to install it and uninstall it.
just downloaded z4root and rom manager from market
z4root installing right now

What phone are we talking about? GT-S5670?
If your phone is an i9505 and you root using CF-Auto Root, SuperSU will automatically be installed.
Another way is to download and install SuperSU from Google Play Store.

Root without trigger knox flag

Is there any solution to root Galaxy S4-I9505, 4.3, MJ7 without trigger Knox Warranty Void flag?
I tried the VROOT method but when I got to the next step (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2526667), to replace the Chinese Super User with SuperSu, remain stuck at "cleaning up files...".
I followed the instructions on page 18 using terminal emulator and it worked great. The tool didnt work for me either. I also did the mj7 tether mod after and it was fine.

How can I install a custom recovery on n9005 stock without using a PC?

Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
Need root. To root without a pc try towel root. Not sure if any other work. After root seach in twrp page how to flash recovery using terminal emulator
"This phone isn't currently supported" - Towel root
I think Tr supports only Exynos Note 3... not n9005. I also tried Framaroot and that didn't work also.

Then you go ahead and make one, buddy. I'm sure the community will thank you for it.
If I knew how to make it I wouldn't be standing here asking these questions.
