SuperSU binary "Installation Failed" Error Fix topic

This is the scenario that i have encountered during rooting my htc one XL for fun. But i have encountered a problem of SuperSU binary "installation failed" when trying to update the binary.

Here i am going to share the solution that have been tried out accidentically.

Premises:
Device : HTC One XL ( i think other device may also counter this problem too when they trying to root with the ZIp version SuperSU apk.
Device's bootloader is unlocked (HTC required, i dont think samsung need this step)
recovery mode Clockworkmod is installed (i think all devices need this mod in order to install apk in the sd_card)
SuperSU apk is installed in recovery mode by install app in the sd_card

Consequence:
The superSU is installed successfully in the phone, you can see the app located in the home screen.
When you try to click in the app, it prompt it requires to update some binary files of the phone. however it will just return "Installation Failed".
Your root access is not stable.
For example:
You might contain root access by using root browser (on google play)
But you couldn't "su" in the linux terminal emulator (on google play)
Also you couldn't "su" by using android shell in the android sdk tools's .adb shell

Solution:
Below is the steps i performed and it is worked.

1. Update the latest version SuperSU in the google play


2. Afterwards, it will prompt the binary update screen again


3. Choose the Txxx/CWB instead of Normal


4. My device cannot automatically boot up the recovery mode, thus i manually started the recovery mode


5. binary will be updated when you go in recovery mode

Importance Note:
Actually I am not success in point 5 (binary will be updated when you go in recovery mode).
It means that the binary doesn't update when SuperSU is still the latest version (updated on google store).
and if you have also encountered this circumstance. reboot in the phone again, in the latest version of SuperSU, selected update binary by Txxx/CWB, and then uninstall the latest version of SuperSU by normal apps uninstallation (you can never able to uninstall the old version SuperSU in the phone normally because its installed in the recovery mode).

Now you can boot into the Recovery mode, it will update the binary automatically, And you can grant the actual root access for your phone after reboot the phone again.

[Q] Omega Rom Kit Kat 4.4.2 v19, SuperSu is not stable topic

Hello,

I recently installed the Omega Rom Kit Kat 4.4.2 v19 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 International.

All works very well.

Except that whenever I pick up / receive a phone call, there is no sound, no voice, no nothing.

To fix the issue, I need to uninstall SuperSu, reboot, and reinstall it as a system app and then reboot (currently 1.93).

Then the calls work as they should.

However if I reboot the phone, I need to re-uninstall SuperSu, re-reboot, re-reinstal is as a system app and so forth.

Is there a no permanent fix for this issue?

This is my first post and I cannot post on Omega Rom Kit Kat 4.4.2 v19 development thread :(

I did not have this issue with Omega Rom 4.3.

Thank you for your help!

Update Supersu binary via cwm, phone stuck at samsung logo topic

Please help me out guys.. Yesterday i installed Xperiacle's awesome N8XT ROM and while i updated all google apps i also Super Su app.. When i opened the Super Su app it asked me to updated Binaries and gave me 2 options, one via NORMAL method and other being via CWM or TWRP.. Since i have CWM i chose that and phone got restarted and its stuck in samsung logo ever since!..

I tried taking out the battery for a few mins that doesnt help..
I tried Pressing VOL UP + HOME + POWER but the its doesnt get into recovery!

Right now i am downloading Stock Rom and thinking of flashing it via ODIN.. Is that the only solution?..

Is there any other solution apart from this?..

Thanks in advance :)

P.S:- I didnt check into Developer options so i dont know whether USB Debugging was checked or not!!.. I suppose this may be a cause to this problem??..

Supersu vs superuser topic

Does it really matter? Is one better than the other? Can I just flash supersu over super user?

problems with supersu after rooting htc one topic

hi guys i just rooted my htc one Gold and flash a custom recovery twrp 2.6.3.3
and after that he asked to install supersu i hit (install supersu) in the recovery menu before rebooting the device
then i installed xposed installer and few apps that's required root...

the problem is when i open any app that request supersu permission it gives me 2 options : 1- 15minute grant 2- next time

like in sense toolbox 5.5 i changed the battery icon and few things and after one hour i did a reboot and it all back to the original settings (stock htc sense 5.5)

so is it a supersu permission issue or what ?
how to make sure that supersu give me a "always grant" option ?

:(
