Can't Update SU Binary on Note 3???

Deleted member 5098235 · Jun 27, 2014

So I just got done rooting my Note 3 with towelroot and everything went fine. I checked to make sure it worked with "Root Checker" and it said I successfully had root access. So next step I took was to download a SuperUser app from the PlayStore, and no matter WHAT SuperUser app I use, NONE of them can update the SU Binary????? so I went and downloaded "Busybox Installer" and downloaded the latest Busybox version to my Note. Then went back to retry to update the Binary but still no progess!! I'm stuck and I really don't know what else to do! I'm not trying to install any ROM or Safestrap. Just want my phone rooted to mess around with some permissions and hacked apks. So can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong???? I've rebooted my Note COUNTLESS number of times and still SuperSU still says it fails to update the Binary! It successfully disable KNOX tho. So what can I do so that I can use my root to my full potential and update the SU Binary???

I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere that its just a problem with towelroot.. And that same thing happened to me on my note 3. I'm pretty sure what I did was download safestrap (you can I install it after) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2517610 and flash this (chainfires supersu +binary) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2517610

If that doesn't work just either pm me or comment that it didn't and I'll see if I can find another way! And you can always uninstall safestrap once you flashed the package (don't forget to clear cache and dalvic)

clarify your Super user app from google play is 1.99r4 ....you should check THIS thread for latest SuperSu app (2.00)

keep in mind Vzw recovery is locked, you cannot flash files on stock rom.
SS will relieve big headaches....so install it.

Once rooted with towelroot, I uninstalled the towelroot app. After the next reboot, SuperSU was not complaining anymore for me.

I put Safe strap on and installed it, then updated the SU Binary through custom recovery via SafeStrap.

Did you try flashing the files he put for the Superuser + binary in Safestrap? Also do you got the latest busy box installed????

Download the flashable zip of supersu. Then instead of flashing, go to the Commons folder inside it and extract the apk. Install it and then run it from app drawer.

This just prompts SU binary update and fails.

I managed to download safestrap and have the su zip in my downloads, but dont knwo where to go from here.
I also don't use anything but stock ROM, won't I trip KNOX by flashing my stock?

First time rooting so I probably shouldn't play around with things alone. Thanks

No you won't trip knox

flashing is safe in safestrap!

Still not downloading the binary. Now I can't even uninstall it through drawer, did the flash make it a system app?

I think I should've uninstalled it before the flash.

It might've, sorry but I'm not clear on what I did..(I think I just flashed a rom) Just go to system/app and see if it's there. Delete it and reflash.
