Sorry for troubles with SuperSU 2.82 - but Chainfire and CCMT has changed in 2.82 a lot of code.

It is better to Unroot from SuperSU App and restore boot.img before flashing 2.82.
And prerooted boot.imgs are difficult to handle.
Better to find Stock boot.img, flash it with fastboot and after flashing Root with TWRP.
KangV Roms are working with Stock boot.img and Version 3

For Users of mate8 al10 kangv b587 I can check for you the original (unmodified) boot.img for this Firmware - and I can write a guide how to do - then you can root with v3 - just tell me who wants :)

Did you also try Unroot from SuperSU and after flashing the 2.82?
Yeah, unroofed 2.81 from within the app, reflashed my boot.img backup and everything was ok again. Then tried to flash versions 1a and 1b of SuperSU 2.82 but both left me without fingerprint features.

Used the same method on those two versions btw (uninstall from the app, reflash boot.img, wipe dalvik/cache, apply new flash file)

I try to make a different version with some changes. I send it to you soon is ready.
If you were between on phh superuser you should even unroot before using SuperSU (boot.img reflash is not enough) by flashing unsu.zip https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067
And I would not reflash Stock boot.img after successful Unroot from SuperSU App and not wipe Dalvik and Cache in one processing. If you made Unroot with reboot to system , you can after wipe Dalvik and Cache with reboot to system. And then the next steps...
So wait for my changed version to try.
And with 2.81 was everything okay?

You are the man :) That's fine, perfect Thank you!
So we should bring out a special version for Mate 9....
I would say if you like to make it I would post it in OP with your name and mention.

You could probably just add it to your zips. It will just look for one more entry so shouldn't conflict with other phones.
I did however link a download in another thread over at the Mate 9 section and mentioned you so it's no biggie xD

I will add it into my zips - many thanks! :good:
I read all the lines of the update binary during night time (cause on day I'm in my job) but I didn't check this ;)

I will update soon as possible. :)
