Earlier today i noticed i could not play super mario run because the game checks for root access. After trying it and failing, i decided to install magisk to cover up root. Booted in to TWRP Recovery and flashed magisk and rebooted. When prompted to install SU i accidently hit do not install and now the SU app keeps telling me to install SU. I tried updating the app and it tells me Su binary occupied. If i uninstall it it tells me that i need to update the binary then fails when i try it. Already tried flashing the update of SU through recovery and nothing. Tried removing all root access and it will not get removed. Even tried to root all over again through odin and still having the same issue. All root access apps tell me im not rooted. Anything i can try without getting rid of my apps and data? Only thing im thinking will be to fully unroot and install stock rom and wipe all data.
Im on a galaxy s5 from sprint, running stock deodexed rom 5.0 lollipop.

Its been a while since I used Magisk. But at that time, PHH superuser had to be used?? Not sure if that is still the case though. Sorry I could not be more help
Yes it does need to be used and it was already installed. But after rebooting the app was not in my app drawer and i had a notification to install SU through play store. But when i go to play store it says it is installed and needs an update. After updating it tells me su binary occupied and takes me to a page to help fix it but i already tried flashing superuser zip file through recovery and nothing changes

Have you fixed it already because I am havibf the same problem here. I am usibg Samsung J7 Core
You can do what you said you would do (reinstall stock ROM) and then you can try again. Looks like thats the only thing you can do, unless you can somehow remove the root binary and the app using something like ES File Explorer (but again, it requires root) or you can try another root provider.

Hi every one,
I currently am using an LG G2 from tmobile (801 model). My device says its rooted but it doesnt have root access because I forgot to flash supersu binaries before i flashed the 4.4.2 version of the software. But now my custom recovery doesnt exist anymore.
I've tried using LG flash tools to flash back to 4.2. stock settings to start over but I am unable to do so for some reason. LG Flash tools isnt able to recognize my G2 in download mode. My computer is able to recognize my G2 when it is turned on though.
So is there anyway to flash a custom recovery without root access?
Or is there anyway to flash supersu binaries without a custom recovery using ADB?
I've tried trouble shooting with multiple threads and multiple downgrade methods but none of them are giving me any luck. I really want to flash a custom rom on my LG g2 and have the benefits of root access.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

All you need to do is install the towelroot.apk to give instant temporary root. Then install SuperSU from the dev thread here on xda or from the play store. After installing SuperSU go to its settings and select install as a system app and reboot when finished. It might take 2 attempts before it successful (it always takes me 2 tries). Then uninstall towelroot as it's no longer required since you've gained permanent root. Now install the autorec.apk and you'll install TWRP recovery. Now that you have root and recovery and have control of your device you can customise to taste. In my case I always install busybox and a terminal emulator so I can further fine tune my system.
I hope this helps
Ciao
still got issues :/

However even when i go into supersu, it keeps saying my binaries are not up to date. So i cant install anything and I cant do anything to install a custom recovery without root access.

So you have installed Towelroot, achieved root then having issues installing the SuperSU.apk this is indeed an issue. Towelroot should allow for it to be installed. When you install Towelroot do you get the warnings from the installer and Lookout that the package contains an exploit? Do you interrupt or stop it from fully installing when you see the warnings? The only thing I can think of is you are doing something wrong when installing towelroot which is prohibiting it from doing its job in gaining root.
I have a OnePlus One mobile.
I have rooted it installed multirom on it everything was working fine .
Then i installed cyan hacker rom using twrp and multirom.
But after two days when i rebooted device into stock(internal) rom Super Su stopped working .
I was getting error "Super Su binary not found and super su can't install it).
i tried everything removed old Super Su ,flashed new one but same problem.
Tried disabling and enabling it but same problem.
But in my cyan hacker ROM when i checked i found "Your device has root access"using Root Checker app but in my stock rom it is showing as your device does not has root access.
When i am opening Multirom app it is showing you don't have root access.But in twrp recovery i have that multirom utility there and it's working fine.
I don't know what to do whether my device is rooted or not.
Shall i need to unlock the bootloader again and perform same activity of rooting again.
Please help.
Ok so I'm having this issue.... I do have s off and I'm unlocked from previously on KitKat. I flashed TWRP and tried flashing the latest SuperSU but it failed on multiple attempts. WinDroid says I'm already rooted when I try to do it but SuperSU gives me this message when I open it, "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!" Then it tells me to visit the forums for this problem so here I am.
SIDE NOTE:
I remember when I originally unlocked and rooted the phone I did a temp root because I was having an issue rooting. All this makes me assume that there's some type of root files, probably out of date, that is showing WinDroid that I'm rooted and preventing me from using SuperSU. I would try to locate them but for some reason (I assume Lollipop) I can't access my system files anymore. My ES File Explorer just shuts down when I try. I know one of you guys has got an answer for me.

Since you have TWRP installed do a android backup and install one of the rooted ROMs. Most will install SuperSu and BusyBox in the installation process.

You need to flash the latest version of supersu. My hunch tells me you aren't using the latest version. Also, when you post for help once please don't continue making similar posts and threads. It makes it very hard for you to get the help you are looking for. You never responded to the last post I made to you last night about to unlock your bootloader either.
Es file explorer is crashing because of the webview for Android update. Uninstall that update and it will work again.

Sorry I didn't see your response to my post. I only saw the others. Been trying to figure this stuff out since.
I think I flashed the latest version (2.46)? I used windroid. Pushed the file to the phone and installed it from the internal memory. Not sure of what the webview in Android update is or how to uninstall it. I will try the method you gave me in the other post. Thanks!
Update: Disabled webview for Android. Working now. Thanks!
Hi, I flashed a update of my rom and then of course I lost root. Then I flashed superSU voa TWRP again and I had root back, but the starnge thing:
When I install the SuperSU APK then all the root apps have no access and do not ask for root. If I deinstall the SuperSU all everything is fine.
Anybody had the same issue once? How to fix this?
Hey guys, had a little problem pop while while setting up my moto 9 g plus.
I have already successfully rooted and verified it on my phone once, and after flashing stock rom, it says in Root Checker App it says "Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device.
I thought once successfully rooted, you did not have to worry. I flashed the stock rom, used adb to remove some basic bloatware, and started installing some apps. I already flashed magisk and it shows it is installed successfully, as well as xposed framework, but when I tried to give root access to youtube vanced, it wouldn't let me. That's when I downloaded the root checker again and seen this message.
Anyone have any idea why this happened and how I can fix it? If I need to root my phone again, it's just that I don't know where to begin because I've done it all once. I already have done all the steps to have twrp and magisk. Where do I go from here to get the root verified again?
Thanks!
As soon as you re-flash a ROM all modifications you applied to existing ROM are gone.

Already solved...I did verify root after flash and installing magisk, but I did not realize that the security patches would cause screw up root. Just had to reflash magisk and root verification works again.
