I am using S7, and after updating with hellraiser to the latest root has basically diappeared. I still have Superuser, but everything is denied, like Nitrality, TiBu, root explorer cannot change it to R/W... Any ideas how to get it back without a reflash of the rom? I tried reflashing beta 1.0 and beta .6 see if that helps, but a not go.
Its frustrating because I would just reflash a new rom, but cannot do a tibu backup without root. Any thoughts would be great.
If it help anyone else who loses root but still sees super user, try the following su binary fix:

Flash it, and this could do it for you. I tried this on two different roms that gave me root issues after a kernal update, and this took care of it. Hope it helps someone.

Hello all,
I have had my Galaxy i5500 for awhile now and have used odin to flash updates for the firmware etc.
I have recently rooted my phone using Superoneclick and this worked fine. Overclocked the phone, and ran a number of Apps using SuperUser Access to gain all the benefits from this.
I installed Titanium Backup and Installed it on my SD Card, this caused a number of problems and I had to pull the battery on my phone to reboot it. Anyway it then hung at the GT-I5500 screen and I ended up having to download a new firmware (not custom) and use Odin to update it.
I now have a working phone, however I now can't root it. I have tried Superoneclick, that no longer works. I have also tried Universal Androot..with that I get an error message of Root Failed - No Fu Guu (or something like that) and I have just tried using z4root... with that it says acquiring Root Shell and then it just kicks me out...have checked and it's not rooted.
I also can't seem to access the reboot menu on my phone (the one where you press a couple of buttons to enter the menu where you can factory set your phone.
Can anyone shed any light on this? Other than these problems mentioned, the phone works as it should
Solved....
It took awhile of trying different root software but.... after reflashing my phone with another stock rom, I found Super One Click still didn't work, nor did z4root or universal Androot (I'm guessing it would have worked without reflashing a different rom).
I did however find that Unlock Root 2.2 worked! My phone is now flashed, no error messages and I have Superuser Access!! Now time to install a custom bootloader and start with the custom roms!!
I'm currently on 4.0.4 (Canadian version) N8010 and I want to update to 4.1.2 (canadian? not sure if it really makes a difference). I get the notification for the update, but when I select it, it fails, and it also fails with Kies.
When I first got the note I opted for the exynos exploit to root my tablet. I was under the impression that if I disabled root from the app my status would revert back to "non-custom". I've uninstalled exynosabuse and busybox (i think supersu uninstalled with the root disabled) and I've restarted multiple times and waited a few hours. No change. I think I'll try to re-enable root and restore some apps that I froze with titanium backup to see if it reverts back.
The other option I guess would be to get the Canadian rom and flash via Oden. although I think that would wipe by note, which i would like to avoid. I found some links to the canadian rom, but they're down.
Thanks for the help/advice.

Did you install a custom recovery or do you still have stock recovery installed and can you tell us your ROM's build number.

I still have the stock rom, I haven't installed anything custom, just use the exploit for the root access.
Build number: IMM76D.N8010WALG4

Without a stock 4.1.2 firmware for your device it looks like you are going to have to do a factory reset to use Kies.
I think your options are limited..........
Have you considered using a firmware from another country?
You know there is a backup program called Helium that does not need root, you may want to consider using it to backup all of your data and then do a factory reset.
I don't know if I have helped you any............
Hello,
Until today, I was using the v18 of the Omega ROM on my Galaxy Note 2 and today I installed the v26. But the Wifi was bugging, so I tried to flash the fix from CWM. I didn't manage because it didn't find the file and when I quitted CWM, my root has been disabled. Since that, I don't manage to root it again, I have done like many tutos but each time, even if the software like Odin was telling me it was OK, when I launched SuperSU, it tells me that no SU Binaries is installed. I have tried to uninstall/reinstall, I have also tried with Framaroot, but it tells me to try with another exploit, but there is only one...
I don't know what to do, I can't back up my folders and apps with titanium backup without root... Do you have a solution ?
EDIT : I have installed again CWM recovery, and then the Omega ROM. And everything is good now.
Sharing this here in case it saves somebody else an hour or so.
I rooted my stock Infinity ROM at ICS and have followed all the OTA updates to current 4.2.1 just using OTA Rootkeeper, apparently successfully. It was only recently when I tried to add another app that required root that I discovered I couldn't grant root permissions. To make it worse, I cleared SU data in an attempted fix which successfully removed root from apps that had been OK :crying:
Then I came across this fix that had been applied to a TF300:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183105
It works as described on the TF700 too and seems to have completely fixed my problem.
Thanks to Koush for the fix to blubbhome for posting it somewhere I could find it.
I am out of warranty now and about to install a different ROM so thanks to all devs for the good work.
Today my apps were acting weird so i went to my superSU and it said
"there is no SU binary installed, and superSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"
Seems like I've tried everything to fix this problem. Flashed stock rom using Odin, reflash CF-root after that. Tried installation custom recovery (can't flash using recovery because my phone is encrypted unless there's a way to by pass that). Used different cords, ports, versions of odins. Still nothing. Had this problem since the morning it's now 8pm here so i decided to ask.
Anyone know how to fix this issue?
Hey, is there anyone who solved the problem ? I got the same issue with my brand new Galaxy S7, quite anoying ...
So have i with my S6. No cure so far, tried everything. Waiting for chainfire to jump in...

I have also just experienced this. Everytime I try to remember root and run root checker it says not rooted.
try root with twrp and a kernel like "adam kernel" or a nearly stock one. Then try flash form recovery supersu 2.74
Ive got the same issue. I have G920i stock 6.0.1 rom and stock kernel and rooted using cf-root. However today i noticed my device is not rooted anymore. Also a week ago my phone completly froze and i had to go to download mode and reboot the device. Im not really sure if this incident was related for the device to become unrooted. Any help is appreciated
Same problem! I rooted my galaxy s7 with cf-root and odin and it worked fine for a while until I got no root privileges and had to reroot it. It worked once more and again - unrooted by itself, only this time rooting doesn't work! it says that it roots it but when I check supersu, it says no SU binary. Please someone help!
same issue
deveice is s6 and china version.
I just bought it one week
wait the solution.
Strange, same thing just happened to me today in Samsung S7. Phone restarted on its own and now no root access. I had it rooted like 2 months ago with Cf and Odin and had been working fine. What happened??
same here , S6 G920F... lost all access from rooted apps tried re-root with odin , also installing supersu again and again , deleted also all the required-rood apps ... nothing works
Hey guys this is already solved. Samsung pushed a security policy update that broke the root. So now the way to go is that you need to flash stock rom with odin. I used smart switch which is easier and worked too. Then after you have stock rom you root using the new cf-auto root by chainfire. Enjoy.

This happened to me today, I fixed by restoring to stock using smart switch and then using cf-autoroot to re root.
I had same problem

Basically I just fixed it by reflashing my ROM straight on top of my old ROM (ressurection remix) I did not wipe cache or dalvik just straight reflashed ROM and it fixed it
Nothing else I tried worked not sure if I will get the same error again but it worked for now
Plus I had error previously with su binary update think this is the cause
