I had the problem, I couldn't root my phone after the update from B521 to the latest B820 version.
I tried out SuperSu versions 2.65 till 2.74.
After rooting through TWRP, I always got bootloops and after unrooting the system starts normally.
As a last try, I looked into the install script and set the "SYSTEMLESS" var to "true".
Now I've got a rooted and starting phone.
So I think there must be a problem, at least for me, with automatically detecting a systemless installable Android version in SuperSu from chainfire at Honor 6, as I understand.
Did anyone else have that problem?
I added SYSTEMLESS=true in /META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary within SuperSu-v2.65.zip, just as described there, but it should defaults to true after proper detecting without this.
At my B521 system, I used SuperSu version 2.52, which worked there and wasn't booting at Marshmallow, too.
Install 2.62

The Multi Tool says for TWRP L02 and L12, can I also install it on L04?
I've installed SuperSu 2.74 via fastboot/TWRP, but as I wrote, only with an modified updater-script, the system boots up. (for me, not sure why and maybe this can help others)

I think I have exactly the same issue, could you upload your modified supersu.zip for me or walk me through the modifications?
That'd be swell.

Have tested it today with latest stable SuperSu, which is v2.76-20160630161323.
-> open the archive with an archive-manager
-> go to /META-INF/com/google/android/ directory
-> edit update-binary with a text editor (your text editor should respect linux line breaks (LF), so if you're on windows, you have to make sure this, I think)
-> after the commented section(all lines with a # beginning), where you can read about possible system vars and beyond,
you have to set the SYSTEMLESS variable to true like in the following example of code:
Code:
...
# if needed. It must replace the input file and return a 0 exit code.
[COLOR="Red"]SYSTEMLESS=true[/COLOR]
OUTFD=$2
...
Line 2, you have to insert to achieve an systemless installation, which seems to be the only way for you and me to make it work.
Please make sure to pay attention to upper/lower case, because otherwise it will fail.
-> save the updated zip and install it via TWRP, e.g. via sideload
Hope, this was usefully.
Note: This is only usefull for Marshmallow as described in the file, because it will not work below.
If you leave TWRP afterwards, e.g. for reboot and it asks you for installing root, click on "Do not install".

(T285M,....modified system image for debloat etc-tar.md5 fails on flash in odin-not sure if some signing is needed-have the system folder if anyone interested...took out some apps, added csc folder with some xmls for control on data on off auto for mms, added two fonts...nothing more than that)
also see page 14 here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...ng-tab-e-sm-sm-smnu-smp-t3302935/post66585078
I just got my T285 yesterday. Noticed that in Setting, App manager I can move some app to sdcard but after restart, the moved app disappear.
Sorry if I have mislead anyone.
Now I am also facing memory shortage with this 8G device.
I have lost all hope for root on the SM-T285. Why such a low profile device gets a locked down bootloader annoys me.
However I'm trying to customize its system.img, I'm stuck though as Heimdall fails at 3% upload everytime I try to use a repacked system.img file. Flashing the original image works fine though so it could just be in the way that I repackage the image. tune2fs shows some difference which I am still trying to sort out.
I'm willing to help if there are things that I can try.

i found this on web, seems fake but, uses a beta root file of cf auto root webpage:
HOW TO ROOT GALAXY TAB A 7.0 (2016)
Note: This is a developing story. As far, we have found only one way to root your phone. But if someone invent more tricks of rooting in future, we will try to share with you.
You can install Chainfire’s SuperSU manually using a custom recovery such as TWRP (In this method we are showing how to install SuperSU.zip file with TWRP). If you are interested, check details below but take a backup of your device’s data first. This method should work with any variant of tab including SM-T280 (Wi-Fi only) and SM-T285 (4G/Wi-Fi)
Step One: Download Chainfire’s SuperSu.zip file.
Step Two: Copy the downloaded zip file to your device.
Step Three: Turn off your Samsung device and boot into recovery mode (boot device by pressing and holding down volume up, home, and power keys at the same time to enter in recovery mode).
Step Four: Take a backup, it is optional but important because if something happen bad in rooting, backup file will help you to restore previous state easily. So press ‘backup’ button, check all the boxes for backing up everything and then swipe to start the game.
Step Five: Once you have taken the backup file, press ‘install’ button, locate the SuperSu.zip file and confirm you want to install it.
Step Six: Reboot the device and your device is rooted.

Yeah it's fake. To even be able to follow that, you need a custom recovery, but there is no way to install custom recovery right now with a locked bootloader.
Does anybody know which version of SuperSU is working on B820/B831?
I tried the one on multitool -> No root access.
Then I tried 2.62, 2.65, 2.67, 2.76 -> None of them are working.
2.62 works fine

Are you on b831?
Do I have to "unroot" before I "install" another SuperSU-Version? How do I do that (restore)?
Have 2.76 on B820.
Did you successfully install it and have it in your launcher? If so, try to allow every root access without promt. If it works then I have a solution for you.

Thanks for your help!!!
At first I tried to install it with mulitool. There was a symbol then, but when I started it there was a error message. When I tried to install other versions there was no installed supersu-app and I couldn't install it from Googleplaystore or manually.

Ok, weird. Just to make sure: You download this zip file:
https://download.chainfire.eu/969/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip
(from the xda-thread)
Copy it where ever you find it (like sd-card). Start into TWRP recovery. Select Flash/Install (dont remember the exact menu entry), choose the zip file, let it install.
After that TWRP will probably ask you if it should root your phone, because it seems not to be rooted. Dont do that! Dont exactly know why, but you definitly dont need that, TWRP is wrong here.
PS: Multitool doesnt have EMUI 4.0 for L04 yet last time I checked
Yeah. I tried it again 5 min. ago. I installed it 2 times. Still no app.
Maybe it has something to do with b831?
What do you want to say me with the PS?
I installed a B831-image I found on the Internet. Everything works so far!

I am on SM-G955FD baseband version G955FXXU1AQI7 (Android 7.0) rooted through CF-Auto-Root download from firmware.mobi by @Chainfire. I removed a lot of blotware afterwards, and xposed official is installed.
Now I want to install an update while keeping the root and phone data through FlashFire.. I downloaded the latest firmware with baseband version G955FXXU1AQJ5 (3.26gb zip file) which is a minor update and android version is still 7.0 and I am using the same update package as default i.e. same CSC
Moreover I am on stock recovery i.e. Custom recovery such as TWRP is not installed.
Now I want to install this firmware package through FlashFire v0.73 while keeping root as well as data intact.
I suppose I have to pick this zip file (without extracting) from FlashFire firmware menu..
I need your input on steps to get this update through using FlashFire, without loosing root or phone data...
In FlashFire I am getting current binary status as custom.

You probably need a new bootloader for modern firmware, which is something that flashfire flashing is not recommended for. Also if something goes wrong you will have effectively bricked your device as you will need a PC to get it working again.
Also installing a new system requires a full wipe, so you will rebloat and need to reroot and reinstall xposed
I updated my pixel 2 to the Android 10 stable release this evening .
First thing I did afterwards was root with magisk .
I pulled the boot file, patched it and flashed it.
I opened magisk everything is checked , used Root check app. That came back positive.
However when I try to modify my host file and install my custom host file I get error messages saying " Can't delete file" .
I tried both root explorer and solid explorer both apps have root access . But can't modify the system files.
I'm starting to thing that I'm getting a false positive on root or something has changed in Android 10 and we can no longer modify system files.
I tried both the stable version and canary version builds of magisk . Both say that I'm rooted but the issue persists .

I saw on another thread after you boot twrp in adb, mount everything as read only and then reinstall twrp and magisk zips thru the recovery. I used most recent versions of twrp and magisk and didn't need to alter the zips in any way. I'll see if I can find the thread....

You can just boot the recovery if you don't want to install it permanently.

Thank you for all the replies, turns out I was rooted but I just couldn't write to system. I ended up installing energized pro module for magisk to modify my host file. No more ads lol

I could also root my pixel 2 with canary_magisk but, although its says rooted, some apps say couldn't find the root binary's. Going back to Android 9
So I seem to have an issue with solid explorer. I go in and remove gmail and other google stuff I don't use typically. Solid gets permissions and when I go to delete the gmail folder it errors out. Not certain if this is a root issue with Magisk or perhaps more likely an issue with apps that need root...
Sorry for bad grammar or lack details
Hello this night I got a notification from magisk to update magisk manager to v22. When I install it, it says magisk unsupported ....... (I forgot what it says) magisk will act as its not downloaded. So I tried to uninstall it and downgrade to 8.0.4 and it required me to reboot. After automatically reboot I'm stuck on fastboot. So I go to TWRP and try to uninstall magisk and I got error 1 and I tried to install and it did the same message. ERROR 1. can someone help me as fast as possible? It's 8:51 PM at the moment and I have school at 6 AM

As the screenshot you provided implies, your boot partition seems corrupted.
Trying to figure out why can come at a later time, in the meantime try flashing a boot.img extracted from your current ROM (i.e a TWRP backup) or stock firmware (if you're on Stock). Using TWRP or fastboot should solve this issue.
