Which is better SuperUser or SuperSU?

Just wondering which one is better?

They're pretty much the same of your just granting root access, but most roms use superuser

I know but just wondering which one I should remove. I have both and I usually remove superuser cause a while back someone said su was better but since I see superuser in all the roms, that's what got me thinking my question

They're pretty much the same, you can remove one or the other. They just grant root access, no biggie lol. In my perspective though I'd rather keep SuperSU.

fan of superuser myself

SuperSU looks more like a native ICS app. Looks a lot sleeker

[Q&A]

How can I delete SuperUser and replace it with SuperSU? I think SuperSU is way better than SuperUser!

Because it's a system app ull have to use a root explorer and manually delete the app
If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button it doesn't bite lol

and then put SuperSU as a system app. Right?

If you can simply install it I would go that route. Otherwise, yes you can. You will need to change permissions and reboot if you install as a system app.

Basically supersu need root access to update its binary, but since it is broken, it need help root acces provided by superuser. Btw have you clear cache and dalvik too?

I guess you have reinstalled the superSU, it will delete su bin.
Now, you really need to flash the rom again and do the fix step by step.

Okay, install supersu from Play store. Simple. Then reboot.

You can install supersu binary using cwm. But update-binary needs to be modified in the zip file to get it working.
Download this and flash from cwm. I have modified the needed changes.

You need the binary in order to have root.

First, dont post again & again. This thing I already suggested you. This is called Spamming.
Now, if you want then download & update latest Busybox from play store.
thanks
