*** Urgent Update Notice ***

We are deeply sorry about the installation errors and failures happened in v2.80.

The new update v2.81 has rolled out on XDA and Play Store to fix the problem occured in v2.80.

Chainfire has also released a quick fix on XDA, it's at #1445 post (we will post it here soon)

We have noticed the multiple reports from users on both XDA and Play Store regarding update failure and loss of root. As of now, we have rolled out 2.82 to resolve this issue. If it still persist, please reroot your phone with v2.79.

Again, we apologize for all the trouble and inconvenience caused regarding our 2.80 update. There is hardly any excuse on our side and we should have done a better job. In the coming days, Chainfire and us will review this issue again and provide a note on what went wrong and how we fixed it. In future, we will set up a mechanism to make sure cases like this won't happen again.

P.S. Upon reading ALL the comments posted on this thread, Play Store, Facebook and various sites, we understand the frustrations among users and we are swallowing the heated words. But even at moment like this, we are truly grateful for the community members who shared the details of the error (which speed up our detection process) and those who defended us.
We owe you guys a big thank you.

Our team's previous announcement (regarding who we are):

Hello everyone, the CCMT team announces the following statement. We hope this can help everyone have a better picture of who we are and what we will be working on:

1. Our team: Founded in U.S, the team currently operates in Beijing, as a subsidiary of JJ World. Our members consist of operations and engineers from top mobile companies in China, US and Spain. Our mission is to make a difference in Android mobile security, via providing clean, reliable apps.

Though CCMT was founded in the U.S. as a full subsidiary of JJ World, the team currently operates in Beijing. Our members consist of operators and engineers from top mobile companies in China, US and Spain. Our mission is to make a difference in Android mobile security, by providing clean and reliable apps.

2. SuperSU’s future: Our next step is to make SuperSU easier and friendlier to use for broader audience. Our primary effort and achievement since partnering with Chainfire is helping new users (who approached us with no knowledge of how to root) and international users who need special assistance crossing the language barrier.

3. Regarding User Improvement Program (with Google Analytics): In future versions, there will be an option to be included in our user improvement program. It’s essentially adding Google Analytics to understand how SuperSU is used. As stated before, we want SuperSU to be friendlier to rookie users, and we need data to help us achieving that goal. Not a fan? You can always go to settings and disable this feature. Note that the user improvement program does not collect nor store personal information.

4. For concerns regarding possible ads in SuperSU: Maintaining the purity and integrity of SuperSU does not conflict with our team’s business strategy. In other words, we will make sure SuperSU is clean and pure, as it should be.


To conclude, we hope this statement can provide a clearer picture of the CCMT team and we are grateful for those who stayed with us along our ups and downs. We thank you for your support, and stay tuned with CCMT!

Changelogs

SuperSU V2.80 is essentially the stable version of V2.79 SR series, now available on both XDA and Google Play Store. For the past few months, Chainfire and the team have decided to rename the beta versions as service release (SR). Thus the next beta version is expected to be named as v2.80 SR1. The reason for this change is partly due to a significant number of websites outside of XDA update their SuperSU when an elevation of version number takes place ( such as 2.76 to 2.77 beta), but they do not label out the beta. Thus the conventional beta release will be assumed as stable version release in many places other than of XDA. Users who only wish for stable versionsmay accidentally update their SuperSU to beta version.


For the full changelogs including currently in development 'service release' / beta versions and older versions, see Chainfire's changelog post here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64916199&postcount=3

Thread cleaned. Yes, this is a new thread for SuperSU as it has been taken over by Coding Code Mobile Technology, Inc (CCMT for short). No, you are not allowed to complain and be disrespectful towards these guys or Chainfire. This has been a long time in the making (some reading for you if you missed out) and if you are upset in the direction it is going, feel free not to use it and/or develop your own root solution (since, you know, we're on a developer's site). Nobody here owes you anything.

try it vice versa, first supersu and then the kernel. also, you might want to ask for help in the S7 subforums.

Upgraded by playstore. Seems to be working fine.. ?

Question is why did some, not all of my settings change?

2.77 was installed into system and now 2.78 it is not.

(Install backup script for updates is not there now?)

Sent from my SM-T230NU using XDA Labs

Android 4.4.2 :(

Edit:

Took another (fourth reboot) and now all my settings are reset but, I am back to installed system app. (Still no backup script ?)

If you want to stay or be system less it's super su then kernel. Same if switching kernels

A quick question...

In order to install suhide we need to flash both, suhide and Supersu in order to avoid boot loops.

Since 2.78 now updates from GP how do we accomplish the above?? I can't flash a GP download and I'll possibly have bootloops after installing suhide and before going to GP.

So, what do we do?
Inquiring minds want to know...

The latest zip is linked in the OP. I flashed it this afternoon with suhide and it's working perfectly. :)

Just upgraded from 2.76 to 2.78 through recovery (SuperSU in system partition) on both devices. Surprisingly I see two icons of the application, both start 2.78. The only app file is in /system/app.
No idea what is going on.

    THREAD TEMPORARILY "PAUSED"

    We're talking/reporting in circles without progress, and nobody is reading back more than a page, so it's hard to see where things stand - the thread just grows and grows with everybody saying the same thing.

    If you came here to report v2.80 or v2.81 isn't working for you: thank you, we are aware of the issues, we are working on it.

    v2.80 release had a few major issues, causing root loss on many older devices and bootloops on Xperias. These issues are under investigation. There was a staged roll-out, and at the first stage no issues were reported. Unfortunately now that there are issues, due to a recent change in the Developer Console for the Play store we can't just un-publish v2.80 and put v2.79 back.

    v2.81 was released quickly in an attempt to reduce the number of users affected by these issues, but it doesn't improve the situation by that much. It is also a franken-merge between v2.79 and v2.80 so it's hard to use as a base. The effort to fix the issues will thus be based on v2.80 itself.

    Those of you who had any issues with v2.80 and v2.81 and are willing to help find and fix them, please report to the SuperSU BETA thread. I am especially looking for Xperia users who had bootloop issues and are willing to assist finding the cause.

    My personal advice would be to stick to SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip for the moment. In the mean time, we're hard at work getting to the bottom of the problems.

    If you have lost root, quite probably you will need to fully re-root with an older SuperSU version (such as v2.79-SR3). Updating to a newer APK or downgrading to an older APK will not fix the issue. If you flash an older SuperSU version and the application itself becomes invisible, 'adb uninstall eu.chainfire.supersu' often fixes that specific problem.

    We're sorry for the inconvenience, please have some patience while we try to work things out. SuperSU has dozens of millions of users across thousands of device/firmware combinations, there will always be some issue with an update, and sometimes (like today) they're worse than average. It happens.


    NOTE: Some are complaining about the new permissions in v2.8x. These are used for the bug feedback screen. They do seem a bit excessive, I'm pretty sure we can drop some of them with the same functionality, but my current priority is to get the show-stoppers fixed. For more information about that and analytics (not currently used), please see my post here.

    Specific issues seen with v2.80

    Updating binaries fails and root is lost, on older Android versions such as 4.4
    This problem has been found and will be addressed. This should no longer happen with the test versions linked below, but you will still need to fully re-root if you lost it.

    Updating binaries reports success, but devices loops on next reboot
    Seems to be limited to Sony Xperia so far. Cause unknown!

    AdAway cannot update hosts file, and bind mounts do not work
    This problem has been found and will be addressed. You can temporarily bypass the problem by disabling 'mount namespace separation' in SuperSU's settings. For security reasons that's a setting that you would normally keep turned on. After next update, you should re-enable this option. The 'bindfix' test version linked below should fix this.

    Application not responding error or crash of SuperSU on network state change
    We have a good idea where this issue comes from. You may be able to get rid of it by manually uninstalling SuperSU (the APK only, not full un-root), rebooting, then re-installing the APK.

    Test versions

    There are some test versions available at https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72429329&postcount=9810 for the adventurous.

    UPDATE: v2.82

    v2.82 has started staged roll-out on Google Play. You can download the ZIP and APK directly from the 'test versions' link above already.

    This should solve the biggest root loss issues, but Xperia users should stay on v2.79 for the moment.

    Further information will be available soon, this post will be updated, and the thread will be unlocked for further discussion.
