hi i rooted my phone some time ago...
and after updated to superAOSP 8.6 didnt liked it returned to 8.2
and than after a day or so i noticed that the phone sais it is not rooted!!!
how can it be?
is there any chance i can fix it without wiping?
Get the superuser zip from the dev forums here. Install it via cwm recovery. Done. Will not wipe anything if your phone's bootloader is already unlocked.

any chance some1 will direct me to a link?
i tried to find couldn't...
su-2.6.3.zip.
First off, I have little knowledge about rooting, custom recoveries.. etc. I'm a noob.
My problem is that I do have my Samsung Galaxy E5 (S978L) rooted with King Root (verified with root checker).
But I am trying to get rid of King Root and replace it with SuperSU. I have the SuperSU-Me app installed, but it
doesn't get past "Processing, please wait...". The regular SuperSU app gives me an error when I try to install it,
and it says "The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" I have to select normal? Since my device is not listed
under TWRP's install menu... and the normal install fails leading me to "Installation failed! please reboot and try again"
which obviously doesn't work for me. I think I read something about unlocking bootloaders, but I am not sure where
to go from that, since samsung is harder to do that with? Correct me if I'm wrong. Also I don't think it helps that this E5
is the straight talk tracfone model.
Bottom line is I am trying to replace King Root with SuperSU, and install TWRP onto my POS phone. Any help is appreciated. Once again, I have no clue about anything really. Trying to learn this stuff
Try this SuperSu Me version, it worked like charm for me,

I started a thread about thishere.
Has some useful info for you. Supersume got rid of king root for me, version 6.7 did it I'll try to upload it later. Also as far as a custom recovery, we are still working on making a permissive kernel which I feel like I am getting closer, but not having a computer to test with if I brick I'm out the game for a little bit lol. Also in my thread at my latest post I explained how to find the proper partitions to dump with dd in terminal emulator, to make a proper nandroid. Many useful articles on this site. Good luck. Maybe you should merge this with the other thread I linked and started for our sneaky straight talk phones. Also, once we get the permissive kernel, we can get the custom recovery going probably, bootloader needs to be unlocked too. Anyways ya, be easy.
Just a little update: I finally have SuperSU installed. For some reason, supersu me wasn't working with my king root, however once I uninstalled it, and installed KINGOroot supersu me worked...
Maybe I can now assist in your process since I have a powerful computer and a decent paying job. But my days are pretty busy. But shortly I'll be trying to make a nandroid backup after doing some reading. Have to learn some of this stuff. But my next couple days are packed. Anyways thanks for pointing me in the right direction

I tried methods 2 and 4. I recently rooted my Verizon S5 and it contains Safestrap and SuperSU on 5.0. Whenever I try these, they all stay on the same terminal screen, and the phone doesn't turn off. What can I do?
Edit: Cannot unlock bootloaders with 11 at the front.

the problem may be on the root so replace kingroot with super su and see

Hi guys so some years agon I rooted my z1 but with it been so long ago I don't really remember how I did it except that it didn't involve unlocking the bootloader and instead there was a exploit for the os so I do have root and can use su and other tools got busy box on there and luckypatcher, so I found it other day blew the dust off and replaced the cracked screen but see I have no custom recovery nor do I seem to be able to flash a custom os, is this due the the method I used ie. Not unlocking the bootloader has this stumped me been able to do other things and am I just stuck on root with org Sony OS, until I go down the road of unlocking
Thanks
Paul
