Superuser error

Hey guys, i found a way to root Galaxy Express I8730. Here is the method:

1. Download the file at the bottom of this post.
2. On your phone, go to Settings -> Developer Options and make sure USB debugging is checked.
3. Extract the file from step 1 You should have couple of files there Find the one that says run.bat and right click and choose Run as administrator
4. You'll see a cmd window. Then a text appears in it and when you see "Press any key to continue..." hit enter.
5. When everything is ready, a message will tell you to press any key again, hit enter and your phone will reboot. Congratulations, you are now rooted.
Its worked all good but when i try to run superuser it says "The Superuser binary (su) must be updated.
Please choose an installation method.
Recovery mode installation is recommended for HTC devices."
But when i use install or Recovery install i get this message
"There was an error installing Superuser. Please send a log of the error to the developer."
and yet i get that message instantly and no log report.
HELP ME PLEASE :crying::crying:

Hi,

Does anyone have a su.zip for the i8730 I can install from TWRP?

The device already was rooted, but yesterday I installed CM 12.1...
Framaroot does not work, it tells "the device is not vulnerable". (interestingly CM12 already knew Framaroot will try to break android security)
I don't have a windows system available for trying motochopper.

thanks.
