[Completed] [Q] Lost root after OTA update, cant get it back, Any Help.? - XDA Assist

So i rooted my Samsung galaxy ring SPH-M840 with framaroot (the most recent version) and didnt know about the OTA survival option in superuser so when i updated i lost root or partially lost root (im not sure). i cant update the binary with superuser or supersu, i cant unistall superuser either.
Now when i try to root with the Gandalf exploit that worked the first time it throws a #13 error and fails
I tried every method under the sun that i know of to try and root this thing again but nothing has worked.
Any advice would be very helpful.

Hi,
It could be there's no root yet on the version you've updated too. But I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device and issue, so you will need to ask for help here,

[Completed] Rooted, then Unroot (turns out not completely)... Help!!

Hello, first off I have a Galaxy s3 SCH-I535, 4.3 software version. A few months back I rooted my phone, but. I decided to unroot it to get the 4.4.2 mostly because the "install software update now" screen kept, keeps on popping up every few hours. Sometimes not even an hour. I went to YouTube to check up on videos showing me how to unroot my phone. I found a user that supposedly showed how to unroot a phone without a computer. I followed his instructions and, technically, it worked. But I came to find out that his method didn't unroot my phone. I still can't update my software and I can't seem to be able to finish my uprooting. I even tried rerooting in order to unroot it by another mood but I can't do that either. When I try to reroot it with the "saferoot" method (which was the program I used to first root it) there is a sign that says "your kernel has being patched". It reinstalled SuperSU but the app says that it doesn't detect an SU binary. I'm lost. I really need help. I much much rather know how to finish my unrooting.

[Completed] [Q] Can Posh Equal S700a be rooted?

I have tried rooting this phone using Kingo and iRoot, but it doesn't work. Kingo times out after the phone reboots and the iRoot PC app doesn't detect the phone, even though the drivers are installed. I also tried using the iRoot mobile app, but it also fails to root the device after explicitly stating that the device was successfully rooted. I also tried some of the other tools listed here such as TowelRoot and FramaRoot. TowelRoot says that my device is not supported and FramaRoot isn't compatible either. Does anyone know how to root this phone? I've searched this forum, as well as the rest of the web, and there seems to be absolutely nothing online about this phone.

[Completed] How do I root my Samsung Galaxy S4 when Supersu says There is no Su binary installed

So about a year ago i rooted my galaxy S4, and somehow along the way it became not rooted. I don't know how....I think it must have been the phone updating itself. I downloaded root checker and verified that my phone is not rooted.
I tried using towelroot and everything went normal except when i hit the make it rain button it told me that my phone isn't currently supported.
I googled, youtubed, and searched this forum and somewhere along the way i learned that SuperSU might be the problem. when i go and hit the Supersu icon on my phone a message box appears and says "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem! If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device!
I tried to update it through the google play store and it didnt work, also tried to go into my files and uninstall the app that way but the uninstall button and clear data buttons are greyed out.
My device is the Samsung Galaxy S4 on verizon
SCH-I545

SU Binary
For me I just followed the root instructions on the S4 page and when it said no SU Binary detected/needs to be updated I just let SU binary install through SuperSU from the play store.

[Completed] [Q] Is there any other way to 1 Tap root aside from King Root on my Grand Prime?

I'm wondering if I can root my phone (Grand Prime SM-G5030AZ) again in a different one tap root way (no pc access) other than other than Kingroot. If yes, the other way will let me use supersu right away. Then maybe afterwards I can do a full unroot using supersu, possibly removing the thing which Kingroot did, leaving my phone saying custom in about phone (voiding the warranty and software updates). The main reason why I'm asking this is because Kingroot does not install the latest binaries and that's why people have issues getting supersu as superuser from Kinguser. I'm thinking that if I root my phone with another one tap root which has the ability to use supersu, I will have my binaries at the latest. Therefore maybe the Kingroot binaries that were leftover will be replaced. This would mean that if I do a complete unroot with supersu, there will be no traces of root at all in my phone after a factory data reset. But I don't know if this is all true. Can someone, please shed some light onto this. Thanks for everyone's great work and I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys. ��
