you must have rooted your phone to use root apps. check on google for a how-to guide

su is auto installed when the phone is rooted but installing su on unrooted phone will not help you to install app that needs root access.

You need the su binary for root access :thumbup:

I lost my root

When i try to open Supersu, it says 'there is no supersu binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it.' I guess i lost the root after i flash N5 real volume booster using CWM and reboot it. Any help is much appreciated.

There's no difference between them. they do the same. they restore your whole system like you first bought it

Because you clicked on full unroot so Root again like when you rooted it first time.
You have to unroot for next restart or temp unroot. But full unroot means full unroot. Good luck

You have to root again...
Repeat while process again for rooting (means what you had done to root your device first time)
