S4 T-Mobile + 4.3 = "there is no su binary installed and supersu can not install it.

S4 T-Mobile + 4.3 = "there is no su binary installed and supersu can not install it.
Did ODIN, then CFRoot (CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919), SuperSu fails with "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it"...
Anyone had luck getting SuperSU wrking on 4.3?

no, there's no working root at this time.

Thank you for the info.
I have to say this, the speed improvement on 4.3 is very noticeable. I am back to CM10.1 and it feels slow in comparison...

Directly from Android, no. You'll need root to do that. Just power off your device, when its turned off press and hold volume up, home and power at the same time. Flash from recovery.

So Android 4.3 without root. I have a costume recovery, CWM, I could simply just flash a new ROM and it wouldn't brick my S4?
Sorry for the newbie questions but I'm coming from zero experience.

Yup. Just do a wipe and flash whatever you like. As long as you have access to bootloader, and keep a backup it is very hard to brick your phone - Im new to samsung, but as i understand with Odin it is even harder to brick it.
On a side note, i had some issues getting it to mount /system - Turns out that it cant if the phone is plugged into the computer (i did a facepalm after trying ~3hours getting it to flash CM )

The thing is I backed up my old system before I flashed Android 4.3. Now CWM cant access the directory. I'm afraid if it can't access the directory then it wont be able to flash properly and I will for ever be stuck on bootloop.

Exactly. I tried searching for stock firmware, couldn't find one. So I thought either I find a way to restore. Or flash an already rooted ROM. You see my dilemma.

Use Odin to reload TWRP, it happened to me too... Put phone in Download mode, use PDA option pointing to TWRP's file...

How does it work?
So I flash TWRP using odin, and then what?

In any case - Back up your current (working) installation - There will be a way to get root in the future. Now you dont have to worry about not being able to use the phone (since you have a working backup), and you can goahead and flash something else.
Dont bother installing different recoveries, they all work just fine - And TWRP wont be able to restore from a CWM backup anyways..
But I dont understand why CWM cannot access your former backup.

That's actually genius. Don't know why I haven't thought of it earlier. Backup and experiment.
Thanks.
Chainfire is taking longer than usual. Its got me worried. I'm loving Stock Android, going to try flashing 4.2.2. Hopefully won't run into trouble.

If you find 4.2.2 vanilla(T-Mobile) let us know, I am looking for that ROM....

dont know if this will work for you but here goes. i have a T999L (T-Mobile LTE S3) i have twrp installed on it and i have slimbean 4.3 official build installed on it, i had the same issue with getting 4.3 rooted but i got it figured out first make sure in the developer options you have superuser allowed by adb and apps.
( if you don't see developer options in your settings menu
go to :Settings>About Phone> click on your build number several times until you get a toast that says your almost a developer keep clicking until it says it has been enabled)
then you will use motoChopper to push the exploit to get the superuser.apk added to the system/apps folder once you do this it won't work as they have somehow allowed access for the expoit to push the .apk but not push the binary to the system/xbin folder.
now pull the SU binary out of the motoChopper folder on your computer and place in on your sdcard
boot into TWRP, mount the file system and copy it from your sdcard to the system/xbin folder and voila you are done, when you go to reboot your device from TWRP it will ask you if you want to fix the Superuser permissions just skip and reboot
( all rights thanks and so on go to the original developer djrbliss and i do not take any credit for his work, nor did i get permission to modify his work, i tried but got no response so i modded it for myself to use and i am now sharing, all i did was swap the Superuser.apk and SU binaries he used in his exploit.) @djrbliss if you would like this post removed just let me know and i will pull it!
not sure why the list showed up as 1 1 1 2 but i think you get the point

[TOOL] Mi Toolkit V4 (Root, TWRP + Stock Recovery, IMEI Backup)

FEATURES
-Root (MIUI only, CM users can enable Root in Developer Options) Working on MIUI7 (thanks to @ss.suryakant95 for testing this out)

DOWNLOAD
(Some users had problems unzipping this ZIP with WinRAR, consider using free alternatives such as 7-zip)
MAIN URL: Click here to download (Please use this download, but if in any case you can't extract, you may use the mirror I provided.)
MIRROR: Click here to download.
HOW-TO
1. Enable Developer Options (Tap MIUI version 7 times in About Phone), and then in Developer Options, enable USB debugging.
2. Have you downloaded the ZIP? No? Download it, now.
3. Extract the downloaded ZIP wherever you like, keep in mind that all files must be kept together.
4. Connect your phone to the PC.
5. Run the Start.bat file.
ATTENTION: Please do a ROOT (I'll assume you're still in MIUI) before you flash TWRP, or you may be brought back into stock recovery. (Thanks to @omerjerk for testing this)
---
UPDATE: This toolkit's TWRP is deprecated (download the newest version here), but if you don't want to hassle with downloading another fastboot driver, you can still download dh.harald's recovery .img file, and copy your downloaded recovery to the extracted toolkit folder, then change dh.harald's recovery filename into twrp.img (UNTESTED)
I'll repack this toolkit with dh.harald's newest TWRP whenever possible.
---
This toolkit is made by magdag, all credits goes to him.

I can't speak for magdag, the dev. So, this is literally the version that is usable for flashing TWRP.
I don't expect any official support for TWRP. And I prefer CWM, if there's one.

Backup everything (all partitions) except the first in the list.
You may want to use the compression.
The backup should be somewhere between 3.5GB and 5.5GB depending on the options and the data.
You could install ROM Manager (from Koushik Dutta) from the Play Store.
Choose the TWRP as recovery and Unknown Device as device.
Then you can use this to backup with TWRP and it will choose the right options for you.

Just Google it. Seriously. Or go to MIUI Forums and see the options you got there, there should be plenty of MIUI Fastboot ROM since 6.5.6

Both root and twrp

I've MiUi 6.6.10 on my device.
I used this toolkit to flash twrp but I'm not able to do so.
Whenever I select the 2 option, it flashes the recovery successfully. But, when I boot to recovery again using adb reboot recovery, I get the stock recovery and not twrp.
What I'm doing wrong ?
P.S. I haven't rooted the phone yet.

It worked after root.
I think it should be added in the main post that root is required.

Installed Nougat, trying to re-root, TWRP reboots halfway when installing SuperSU

I updated to EMUI 5 with nougat, i think i lost my root. Went back to TWRP and about 60% of the way through the install phone reboots by itself with the phone not being rooted. Tried different superSU versions along with an adb sideload, same thing. Anyone have any idea what i'm doing wrong?

I am also trying to get root on an H8 FRD-L04. So does this boot.img file get flashed in twrp like any other zip file or do I need to choose different options in twrp to write it to the correct place?
Also can you tell me which version of twrp you are using? There seem to be several floating around on xda.
Have you had any other issues with apps that need root since you did this? I'd like to get my favorite xposed mods working on my H8.

Unzip the file first, that should leave you with bootr.img I think it's called. Make a backup just in case, but yes, flash it just like you would anything else, no need to wipe anything and no I did not change any settings.
I'm using TWRP 3.0.3 found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563
I have tried at least 5 apps that have needed root and have not had any issues. I haven't tried xposed yet though.

And so the bootr.img is 'pre-rooted" so I don't then need to flash "SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815-EMUI5.0.zip" or any other SU zip file, or format the Data partition as some other threads have mentioned, to get root, is that correct?

I did not format or wipe anything. I simply backed up my boot.img and flashed bootr.img. I did not flash anything else. After that, I rebooted and installed phh Superuser from the play store. That's it.

Thanks, I'm trying to get the stock partitions for an LG Phoenix 2 but the phone can only get temporary root with Kingroot. The Kingroot also gives random reboots.

Get in a root shell, do this
Code:
cd /dev/block/platform/
ls
Whatever ls gives you, run
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/platform/"whatever it gave you"/by-name/recovery of=/recovery.img

Nope, had to delete LAF, and then the fastboot mode was neutered, no command was recognized. I bricked my device flashing an aboot from another variant of the phone.

For mine, it said it was in Download mode after deleting LAF, but I could run fastboot commands. Just run fastboot devices whenever it says download mode and see what happens

awesome thank you for your help ? I've been working at this phone for 6-7 months and we are finally starting to get info on how to unlock and root but this phone has been a difficult one ? so basically download mode is masking fastboot but fastboot commands can be used in download mode, was this after or before you bricked? I just don't want to brick mine, i don't have a dev phone yet for the tribute hd except my daily driver

Before, I flashed my bootloader with a copy of one from a different variant of it. You should be fine. When you're in fastboot try running fastboot oem unlock and fastboot flashing unlock and see what you get.

I am at a brick wall again adb devices works for me and returns my authorized devices listed but when i put my phone into download mode and enter fastboot devices i get a blank output and if i enter either unlock commands it says (waiting for devices) forever whether i unplug it or not, no response. I BELIEVE i have the right device drivers and i have the latest fastboot/adb binaries and system wide adb and fastboot drivers installed. I'm pretty sure i still have to nuke laf. I've been unsuccessful with every other method

Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite got messed up
Hi there!
I have just received my new Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite phone and wanted to pass all of my data from my old phone to it in a way that it was required to be rooted.
KingRoot didn't work on this new phone, so I unlocked bootloader and tried to install TWRP recovery on my phone.
Installing to the recovery partition did not work. I searched the error it gave me and found a thread saying that flashing it to the boot partition worked for them. So I did. Next thing that happened is that my phone did not boot into the OS (operating system) ever again. It only booted TWRP.
I have since been able to remove TWRP (though I made a back up of it) but the phone still stays on just the loading part before going to the OS.
I have since been able to get back the fastboot and stock recovery, but the phone will not start into the OS anymore.
How can I fix this?
I have been searching for ways to restore my android to the 8.1 Oreo version that it was.
Can I do it with this Tool All In One? Please help! Thank you in advance!! Much appreciated!!

hello
i have unlocked bootloader and wait for TWRP and want to root my phone.
Can I flash TWRP and root with this tool easy? And will I lost all data if do that?

I would suggest using the root method mentioned here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-install-magisk-proper-support-ota-t3836952
Twrp does not have good results for most people.

With this method I will lost all data on my phone and I do not want to setup phone 1 more time. Twice was just enough
I know that already but thank you anyway

If your bootloader is unlocked, you should not lose any data just installing magisk

Yes...my fault. My BL is unlocked already.
But I posted in that thread...because of some reason does not work. But this is not thread about it
Thanks for help

So...Installed TWRP but does not recognize anything in internal storage. Not recognize SD card.
When boot again to TWRP goes to "something"...some kind of empty stock recovery with android logo and nothing more.
Oh man...that will be interesting ride...to put TWRP or root device

Because your not supposed to install the twrp image just boot from it and if you do install it then you have to flash the original boot image for which ever 8.1 update your on to get rid of it.
This is explained on the team win page for daisy wish i had read that first after re flashing my os twice and boot image once trying to install this am just using the phone as is for now until i get the urge to try again

oops sorry i should check what thread this is before trying to answer a question i blame alcohol .
Thing is there are posts out on the net that advices people with the a2 lite to install the twrp image to their inactive slot and not to just boot it and that's where things seem to start going wrong.
This has absolutely nothing to do with this tool and sorry i just dived in here and confused people.
maybe some kind passing mod will get rid of the post apologies again
