To be honest this WON'T be the first time they connected their phone to their PC right. So the drivers could have been installed. :/ but yeah you could check if they have been installed or not t :)

Go to play store and download busybox. Open it and install! That's it :D
I hope this will fix your problem

DO one thing,
Uninstall SU and remove all apps which require root.
Again root your device. This time with motochoper (ONLY XSP)
If SU is there, Go to play store and again DOWNLOAD https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en and this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper&hl=en (DONT OPEN THEM YET!)
Then install Busybox by opening the busybox application. You will have an older version installed. Update it to the latest version i.e 1.21.0. If installing it gives an error, then click on 'Uninstall' and again Install it.

Open SU and it won't say 'No Binary Found'

I really hope this will work or else i'll test it again on my SP. :D

Regards,
Ishan

3. As motochopper didn't give any error, SU will be installed and as it updates, that means all the binary's are installed properly! :)
5. Check if root is properly installed by dowonload Root Check from play store. If it shows successful then no need to install busybox as it is installed while rooting your device :D

As stated above, qmobile might not be compatible with motochopper. We don't get that brand in US or even here in India. People haven't developed exploits for qmobile maybe that's why this isn't working for you.

Sorry but you must try some other exploit.

Ishan

    Do one thing and see if su is there. If it is then remove it along with root (there is and option in settings of su) and then re-root it. While in the the process of rooting, don't touch anything on your phone or pc. And I hope this time you are able to root it! :D
    Also confirm if it works and what device you used.

    After success in UBL, now I flashed the Thunderzap but after flashing it failed to boot displaying a black screen with a white strip at the top of the screen.
    anyway I used my ftf Original room and recoverd the kernel only.
    still need to root, any ideas?
    If you want to root your phone, yes, you need to root it again, flashing back with original .ftf will delete root rights
