[Completed] Root access problem - XDA Assist

Hi everyone,
I own a canvas A120 kitkat variant smartphone, and i think i am facing a unnatural problem here.
Here is what i did
1) Rooted my mobile using an old version of kingroot (that was long ago)
2) Updated super su binary using supersu me.
3) While trying to find out a suitable app to root hp slate i installed king root and it took away the root access control from super su :crying:
4)Used supersu me again and while it was functioning i uninstalled the supersu app that was already installed in my mobile.
This four steps have led to a situation where
1)Kinguser is present as a system app but cannot be launched anymore.
2)Supersu binary couldn't be installed.
So i am stuck in a situation where i have root access, but cannot use it for any good nor can i completely clear the access and go back to old state.
I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE. PLEASE HELP ME OUT.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

will installing latest version of kingroot do any help?

Out of box rooted??

So i just bought this today from bestbuy. I have a GS3 rooted anyway, I know what I'm doing for the most part. My question is, my tablet is rooted out of the box? I was installing my apps and it installed root explorer, rom manager and superSU. When i opened rom manager and R/E supersu asked for permision. I can also go in R/E and edit or delete apps as I can with my rooted S3. The only thing is clockwork is not installed, i go to install it and only gives me 3 options for samsung phones. My status evens says normal and it has no flash counts. I know they could be cleared, anyway has anyone else seen this?

Try writing a file to "/system". If you can't, you're not actually rooted. Installing apps that require root doesn't mean you're rooted either. If you need root and CWM, check the CF-Root thread in Original Development.

Root Checker is also helpful with this type of question.

I installed supersu from store and that asked to update binaries....i tried to solve that problem by flashing a su bb installer attached in a video....but..it failed. My su binaries are still not updated....and my root is not stable bcoz of that....please help me out guyz

i would re-flash stock and start over with the correct files. once you mess up root it usually not a simple fix to get it straightened out, and in many cases its not fixable at all without starting over.
Thanks for responding me....
I understood you when I said " it's not a easy task" but.....
There might be any recovery for my device to get out of this trouble.
Or...should I root it once again with any good tool..m.could I suggest for specifically Galaxy Grand Neo Plus

i really dont know if there is some way around this for your device. it has been my experience with many devices that there is not, but i didnt want to say there is no way ever, because i obviously cant be familiar with every device ever made.
your best option, and the only one i know of, is to start over with clean stock.
Okay
