I want to root my XT925 on JB 4.1.2 (fido). So, I follow 0mega1's method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2118483
1. unlocked bootloader;
2. flashed epinter's CWM recovery
3. install supersu.

I have tried for 3 weeks, but failed.
the supersu is not installed, showing " no su binary, supersu cannot install it"
Would someone please help. tell me the process step by step. I am new for Android.

Question: after flashing epinter's CWM recovery, the phone in still in AP fastboot state, what shall I do? Just simply press the power button to go to the normal phone state?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Yes, press the power button to turn off the device; But Are you sure you have CWM recovery installed??
if yes, did you get the file in the link? It´s not install superSU from market, you must install via CWM the file in the link; I attached the file to simplify you the thing.

Save it to the root of your SD, turn off your phone, press both volume keys and power at the same time 2sec to be sure;) and drop the power button first and after the 2 volume keys; use - Volume to move to RECOVERY and pres + Volume to select.

I u have CWM Recovery it should appear, use it to install the file attached and you are rooted.
