Getting problem after rooting - Galaxy E5, E7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. First of all I would like to thank for helping me in rooting my phone. Today after my exams finished i tried to root using odin and cf auto root and thus was successfull. But now i am facing a problem :-
After rooting super su succesfully installed and on root checker my phone showed that its rooted but after sometime if I open supersu it automatically shows that i have not installed the binary and on checking in root checker it shows that its not rooted. If I restart the phone then its again shows that it is rooted. What do I need to do? Hope to get a help soon

I have the same problem, whats your model? my is E500M

I had same problem with my E500H.
When you root your phone.
Super su gets updated from play store, hence it shows that binary file are missing.
Uncheck auto update apps in play store.
Super su will be working good but it start lagging after that. I don't prefer rooting my phone.
Instead get CM13 for E500H, which has inbuilt root option in developer options.

Can you please explain a bit about the CM13 and how to do it

Sure !
Check this [url]https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-e-series/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-galaxy-e5-e500h-t3290755[/URL]
for this you need twrp recovery,CM13 ROM, open gapps.
If you face any issue just reply me.
I have flashed CM13 more than 10 times on my device, so i may help you if there are any issue.

Towelroot work??

I know outside of Att note 3 it hasn't been confirmed to work but wondering if anyone tried it on other note devices? Thanks.

Used it installed safestrap and when it reboots get the unlock symbol on the boot screen

Works fine on my device. For the unlock symbol, download latest SU and updated binaries. That will go away.

Definitely works for getting root. Rooted, installed SuperSU, Xposed, SafeStrap all successfully. Now struggling to get a rom to work (tried Eclipse & Hyperdrive). Both say they install successfully via SafeStrap and then hangs on boot up. I've seen one other post on the Eclipse thread for the same problem, so it might be something to keep an eye on.
i can verify that this method works. i just installed superuser and it works flawlessly. the only thing is make sure to download the superuser app from here so you have the updated binaries: http://download.chainfire.eu/447/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip
re
i have root access verified w/root checker
downloaded v1.99r4.zip and installed it
when i open it it asks for me to update binary and it fails installation
any ideas or workarounds??

I seem to be in the same boat as well. Things I have tried and it still does not work:
Installed Play Store Edition
Installed 1.99r4
Installed 1.99r5
All of them are saying I need to update binaries. While I am technically rooted and can grant permissions to apps, I need to get into SuperSU so I can modify some settings.
There are several others have issues on Reddit as well, so its not a couple of people.

Try this. Install safestrap 3.7x. Open it, give su permission, install recovery, hit the home button. Open supersu, update binary thru cwm/twrp. Don't click to reboot phone into recovery from supersu. Hold down home and bring safestrap back up. Reboot to recovery from there and it should update the binary. Hope this helps.

This is being very peculiar. After I installed Safe Strap, SuperSU went fine, able to get in and do what I needed to get done. I reboot into recovery. Made a backup, and rebooted system. Went right to SuperSU again. And the same issue occurs, constantly asking for updated binaries. I am trying everyone once more to make it all work. If not, then I will just stick with what I have and hopefully it doesn't cause any other issues.
Thank you for the help thus far. :good:

Yeah I just did all this last night...I installed SafeStrap and installed Recovery, then went into SuperSU and clicked Normal when asking for updating Binaries and it hasnt asked again thankfully. All of this of course was after installing BusyBox from the Play Store.
Note though: Safestrap isnt working for flashing roms just yet, just like someone else said here, and someone else said this in the Jasmine Rom forum. I just tried it myself and everything looks fine when installing, but then when you boot up, screen goes black and unresponsive after the SS splash screen on a reboot. Hopefully we have an update to SS soon. Fair warning - make sure you create a backup of your System/Data, etc in SS before messing around...it makes it so much easier to restore in case something screws up.

So, can someone enlighten me on what this "root" does? I've been running SafeStrap 3.72 with HyperROM 8 and just yesterday, successfully installed Towelroot on my Verizon Note 3. I downloaded the new SU to my SDcard before running Towelroot and was able to run it immediately after root and all looks good. But... what did I actually gain? Can I now install Cyanogen or others? I am a bit fuzzy on the difference, if any, on a rooted phone vs. an unlocked bootloader. Those of us on the Verizon retail Note 3 still don't have unlocked bootloaders do we? I miss the ease of playing with my old S3! LOL. Thanks!

No, you dont gain an unlocked bootlader. At this point, only the Almighty will make that happen lol. For us with Verizon Notes (and some others), this helps the folks who either a) dont want to use Kingo or the other web methods, and b) folks who were on stock 4.4.2 NC4, like from an OTA (like me). This now gave me root, where when the OTA came out people were fearing there would never be a root for it (thanks to everyone else who put monies towards a bounty). Many people as well as myself cannot use SafeStrap successfully to fully flash a rom yet (you'll see this remarked in a lot of places), so Im sure there is an update forthcoming. In the meantime, I can use TB and freeze/uninstall a lot of the bloatware crap, and use Xposed for whatever else, which is fine by me. But no, we are still a no-go on full rooting and unlocked bootladers like on some other phones, which means no CyanogenMod, etc.

Root Xperia Z2 Tablet (All Models/Regions) on 5.1.1 build 23.4.B.0.319 in 3 Steps

Hello everyone,
I've noticed that there hasn't been any threads about rooting the Xperia Z2 Tablet on lollipop. Most threads have discussed how to root the device on 4.4.4 and to create an update image to maintain your root whilst updating to 5.0+.
I've scoured the interwebs and found nothing so I'll make it easy for those whom don't know how to achieve root or don't want to do much work without creating images and such.
First off I'm not responsible for any inconvenience that may come with rooting your device and losing your warranty. I can and will be willing to help out in restoring or answering questions that you may have.
This method uses Kingroot... For those who have a problem with kingroot, it is only used to achieve root and this guide will also be showing you how to remove kingroot and install Supersu with ease. Using the link below download the necessary files: Kingroot V4, Supersume, XZDualRecovery 2.8.26. Place all these files on the root of your devices internal storage/SD card excluding Xdualrecovery as that needs a PC. (If you want to Xposed working I will also supply the files needed for that as well). https://www.mediafire.com/download/wrsajbgw2jr6czt
*Make sure you have unknown sources enabled under Settings>Security>Device administrators as well as Developer Options available and USB debugging enabled. (To enable Developer Options go to Settings>About Tablet>Build Number and click it 10 times).
1. Install NewKingroot.apk and run the application. It will notify you that a root method was found and to try it. It may take up to 2 minutes to achieve root. (If all you wanted was root and are content with kinguser then you're done! :good: if you want Supersu and/or a custom recovery then continue on to step 2!
2. Connect your Tablet to your PC via microUSB. On your PC open and extract the contents of TabZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26-RELEASE.combined.zip to your desktop. Now double click install.bat a screen will pop up providing you with options to install xdualrecovery. Choose option 2. Installation on ROM rooted with SuperUser by pressing 2 and enter. The script will run its course and tell you to grant permission on your tablet. Open up your tablet and a kinguser prompt will show asking you to grant or deny permission to ADB (Grant it!!!) afterwards your tablet will reboot on it's own to TWRP. (I advise you to either make a backup of the tablet now or after you install Supersu as insurance in case of any mishaps). Click reboot System.
3.Install Supersume, open the application and run it. It will of course ask to grant it permission (Grant it!!!) it will check the environment (making sure that there isn't any Pokemon nearby that you don't need... Sorry Pokemon Go reference) and it will begin removing kingroot and install Supersu. If you didn't have Supersu installed already great! It'll open up Supersu automatically. Supersu may ask you to update binaries (DO NOT click TWRP as it will reboot and you have to start the process over from step one!!! :crying: Just click Normal and once it says successful you're done! :victory: The next step is optional if you Want Xposed.
*Optional 4. Install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk. Open your app drawer and open NDR Utils. It will ask for permission (Grant it!!!) now here you may choose your preferred recovery... Philz Touch Recovery,TWRP or Clockwork Mod Recovery. Click Reboot to Primary Recovery (fourth option) once it's rebooted you want to click install>SD>xposed-v85.1-sdk22-arm-by-romracer-20160620.zip and swipe to install. You should get a success when it's finished. Now simply reboot and your apps will be upgrading. Congratulations you now have root with SuperSU and xposed! :victory:
**if you wish to uninstall Xposed simply reboot to recovery and click install>SD>xposed-uninstaller-20151218-arm.zip uninstall the application once it's rebooted and you're good to go!
***if you have a problem with Supersume not working, reinstall Newkingroot.apk and run it again to get root. Then run supersume again (Grant permission!!!) and let it run its magic.
If anyone has issues, has questions or needs help PM and I will do my best to help and answer all your questions. Please don't be discouraged because I'm new here! I will be soon adding a link to a video tutorial on how all these steps can be done!

That's great news to hear! I picked one up and wanted to root and I did on KitKat but when I upgraded to lollipop I lost root and rooted it the long way... Needed something simpler and couldn't find anything on here. So I wanted to make sure a guide was available to all. Enjoy and let me know how it went

If you're talking about your google drive, there is no kingoapp.apk in there
All there is:
- supersume.apk
- tabz-lockeddualrecovery
- xposed uninstaller
- xposed v85.1
- xposed installer
I downloaded the most recent kingroot, which worked on my Verizon sgp561, and then I used your superuser file to change over to su. Seems to work just fine.. I'm on 5.1.1.
I tried the most recent kingroot and it fails.

Problem rooting SM-N910 F with CF Auto Root

I am trying to root my SM-N910F using CF Auto Root but when the phone reboots, I noticed that
it says boot image not found, aborting........ and the phone will not root. Is there anything I am doing
wrong or that I missed to cause this issue?

Wasn't it much easier if you install TWRP first, then root it using magisk?
Thank you for thatsuggestion. I didnt know that I can install TWRP before rooting the phone first
I had trouble rooting with CF auto root on my SM-N910F, not exactly the same problem as you.
Then I did some reading into other root alternatives and basically found out that SuperSU, which CF autoroot uses, was sold to a Chinese company called Coding Code Mobile Technlogy sometime around 2015. As it's closed source and Chinese firms particularly have been known not to respect user privacy, I would go with Magisk instead as it's open source, plus I have had zero problems with it so far.
Thank you so much for your help. I am not an expert with the rooting, but done a Note 4 Verizon before and it wasnt easy.
Now I got the 910F and I want to make sure I dont brick it. Can you tell me where I can find exact instructions? I already
downloaded twrp-3.3.1-0-trlte.img is that the correct version for my 910F ?

I'm no expert myself, in fact I'm new to it! but I'll share with you what I know.
I basically flashed TWRP to the phone using Samsung Odin (Loads of videos Youtube showing the process) Then I used Android Debug Bridge to push the Magisk flashable .zip file over to the phone (I think I could have actually just copied it into /sdcard - Androids name for internal storage bizarrely - through windows just like any other external device) before booting into TWRP on the phone, and simply selecting "install", selecting the Magisk .zip and flashing it from there. Then I just booted into Android and I seem to remember either the Magisk manager app will now be in your app draw, or alternatively there is an app placeholder there which allows you to download the full manager app, I can't remember which it is but small difference. Here is a link to the official Magisk thread on XDA which you can use find the download links you need. Take note that right at the top it states...
"Magisk does NOT have a website. Do NOT download Magisk from unofficial sites"
When I did it I downloaded Magisk from one of the top websites that appears when you search "Magisk" in Duckduckgo (they look very official) however after I read the notice above in the official thread I wiped the phone and did the process over again just to be safe! I hope that is helpful. :good:

did you remove battery after the flash?
Thanks for your help. Yes I tried that after the 2nd attempt when I set Odin not to auto reboot, I removed the battery
and then booted the phone after inserting the battery with the same result, not root. I am wondering why it says
boot image not found, aborting....... since I loaded the CF Auto Root which should be the correct boot image
