TWRP just "reads" what's written in the zip updater-script. Just because it says "installing busy box", doesn't mean it is.
There seems to be a lot of issues regarding the systemless root method. Here is some help/basic info.
Prerequisite:
1. Bootloader must be unlocked
2. Must have TWRP recovery installed
How to systemless root:
1. Download SuperSU v2.61 or SuperSU v2.62-3. Both work, I use the v2.62-3.
2. Flash either in TWRP recovery. Reboot to system. You now have systemless root.
Problems/Fixes:
1. Don't update SuperSU via the Play Store. I didn't have any luck updating this way (nothing but problems). If you want to update SuperSU/binaries, just download the current version SuperSU v2.71 and flash it in TWRP. As long as you previously flashed one of the SuperSU's listed in "How to systemless root", it will boot without issue.
2. One of your favorite root apps doesn't see that your rooted? Do THIS.
I update super su from the playstore without issues.

Could you explain your process? I tried updating from the 2.61 and had issues.

Well, to get root (systemless) you flash super su 2.62-3 with twrp, then go to playstore and update super su app, open Super su and a pop up will indicate that your binaries need updating, press OK and wait until it's complete, then just reboot your device.
Good post. I see nothing but problems in here from people trying to flash some of the newer supersu zips and not booting due to it installing to /system.
I'd just like to add that you can start with whatever version supersu you want (as long as it is new enough to support systemless install - don't dig out 2.47 and expect it to work). You don't have to start with 2.62, but 2.62 is a good choice since it only installed systemless.
On unrooted, unmodified stock you just have to add a preference file to force supersu to install systemless. I find its easiest to do via adb in TWRP, but TWRP's built-in terminal would work too. It is one extra step before rooting, but if you're on unmodified stock then you probably just fastboot flashed TWRP so the PC and USB cable are already handy. Just enter:
Code:
echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" >> /data/.supersu
Once that's done you should be able to flash newer supersu zips. No need to start from 2.62. :good:

Where can one find this magical "How to systemless root" list of safe-to-flash systemless SuperSU?
And I assume only the BETA versions are systemless? I have tried flashing the latest STABLE v2.76 and it just stuck on boot.
The SuperSU v2.62-3 that you mentioned does work but just want to find the latest version to flash.

Adding the single line text file to /data worked for me to root stock 1575 18-4 with the latest Supersu 2.76 stable.
Making it very easy for everyone, here's my simple flash zip which force-installs any version of SuperSU (2.62 or newer) as systemless.
What the installer does:
1. Copies the "systemless" file to the /data partition.
The systemless file contains the following:
SYSTEMLESS=true
BINDSYSTEMXBIN=false
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. Renames the "systemless" file in /data to ".supersu" (as required in SuperSU's guide to overriding.)
3. Installs SuperSU as systemless, as the "systemless/.supersu" file forces it to.
The installer includes SuperSU 2.76. Read updater-script in the ZIP if Chainfire releases a new update and you want to update the zip with a newer version of SuperSU.
EDIT: Updated the installer to apply permission fixes to /su/bin for Android Pay compatibility after installation.
EDIT 2: Removed the /su/bin permission script since SuperSU 2.76 now applies it itself.
EDIT 3: Fixed the installer to look for the correct filename of SuperSU. Everything is perfect now.

Thanks for the script. It should make it easier for someone to apply systemless root. FYI, supersu 2.76 defaults the /su/bin to 751 permission.

Yeah I'm hoping this will make it easier for those who are flashing SuperSU and ending up with an un-bootable phone due to the installer defaulting to system root in newer versions.
I've removed the permission script since I had no idea 2.76 now applies it. Thanks for the heads up!

Flashed your script but SU wasn't installed. After that, I flashed SU 2.76 in TWRP and everything is as it should be. Android Pay also working.:good:

Found the issue. The installer couldn't find the zip as I pointed it to a different file that wasn't there
("supersu-v2.76-20160630161323.zip" instead of "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip". Thanks!

Yes, I have updated the zip to fix this and it will now find and flash it.

OMG THANK YOU
I had accidentally installed the wrong SU and i thought I would have to wipe my entire device after hours of trying different methods. Yours was the only one that worked and my phone booted back on. Thank you so much.
Taking a risk of sounding stupid, will your SystemLess Root work for Android 7.0 Nougat?

Didn't we fix this in another thread?!?!
I tried installing suhide 0.55, and I keep getting an error saying that /system/xbin/su was found. I installed this zip, which is required for suhide. Is simply flashing the SR1 SuperSu zip already installing it systemless? Or is there another step I'm missing? I'm following this tutorial, by the way.

Hi!
Today I have updated my E6653 from 32.2.A.5.11 (with Chainfire's SuperSU) to the newest version 32.3.A.0.378 (with phh's superuser) using the "Customized NOBA" package, downloaded via XPeriFirm.
Everything seems to work fine and I have root access. I can create new files in "/system/xbin" by using the RootExplorer, but I cannot install busyboy (pro).
Every time I try to install it to "/system/bin" or "/system/xbin" it fails, telling me I have to chose another location. And if I try to install it to "/su/bin" it tells me that systemless root is not installed.
What I did to upgrade my phone:
1) Downloaded 32.3.A.0.378 via XPeriFirm
2) Removed build.xml and created a new bundle
3) Extracted the kernel and patched it by using "rootkernel v5.23"
3a) Disabled: RIC and dm-verity
3b) No superuser, no busybox
4) Flashed the custom bundle (wiped everything, except user data)
5) Flashed patched kernel
6) Installed phh's Superuser app.
Everything worked as expected.
But after I was not able to install BusyBox I rebuild the kernel and this time I installed superuser.zip to it.
3b) phh's superuser with unmodified config.txt => installed permissive
But the BusyBox installer is still not working.
How can I install BusyBox on my system?
Thank you very much!

Try with supersu, that way you can tell the source of the problem.
Hi!
A few seconds ago I managed the installation by using the custom installation path "/vendor/bin".
This is the location where the su binary is installed, too.

Install via rootkernel..
Currently having trouble as my device does not want to be ADB friendly from the temp flash of TWRP so I need a zip file to flash twrp from as the old ones fail to boot but I'm having trouble finding an installer file. Is there one available?
Yes it's in the op of the twrp thread, it's called the unified unofficial installer
It's literally in the first post of the thread :
