su binary outdated - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, every time I restart my phone, and it goes through the process of checking storage and everything, I get a little hash symbol icon in the top bar that says 'su binary outdated' when I click on it, it doesn't look all that safe but it pops up every time, im worried if I go through with it it may be a virus... I rooted my phone with z4 root and installed lag fix v2. Anyone got any advice or guarantee that it is safe? It wants to down load a file when I press update but I *****ed it ang closed it...

Its the super user binary should be safe as almost everyone is using the super user app. It enables root permissions to the apps you want. Should update to v3.0 i think, ive done it no problems so far...

I just upgraded my FW via Kies the other day from 2.2 to 2.3.3 KG3 and lost my root in the process. Have not rooted it again yet as been trying to sort out the best way to root with KG3 - seems some people having problems with speedmod (my root kernel previously) and KG3.
I still have the superuser icon and i'm getting the same message as you to update it - I have hit go ahead but it won't because I don't have root access but if you are rooted it should be safe to update it.
As soon as i root my phone again I certainly will....
EDIT: flashed .tar file found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1211939&highlight=haloimplant&page=19
and rooted again no problemo. still on same kies-upgraded KG3 stock firmware. Superuser updated with busybox and TiB updated. now to find a decent kernel/rom....

root access?

I purchased att tab one week again, rooted using superoneclick and flashed to overcome 2.3.3 as instructed, everything works out fine.
Soon after I installed Titantium backup root, it showed "not rooted access", and I tried other apps (root explorer, tweeks), same message happens, and z4root superoneclick fail to do the magic this time.
Also, I tried to flash cf-root 2.3.3 JQ1 to root this tab, still no luck.
Just want to know how to root my tab? searched the board, could not find solution, any suggestion is appreciated.
My tab information:
baseband 19000ugjk3
pda: P1000xxjq1
phone: 19000ugjk3
csc: P1000Oxajq1
When you go to the app list do you see Superuser?? If I recall correctly, all you had to do is flash the gb stock safe in odin, and that should have given u all the root you needed.
Yes, I can see superuser in app list, and having no problem opening it.
So how can I do this, restocking GB-safe, can you provide more detailed steps, thanks very very much, I desperately need to unlock this tab.
ok when u open superuser can you click on log and see if superuser is denying your apps or if you maybe unknowingly denied them superuse access? The easiest way I can think of it to redo it again. download the gingerbread stock safe on the overcome website in my sig, backup all and i mean all your apps you care about, texts whatever it is. then download odin 1.7. Follow the overcome guide and you should be fine. Once your done your tab should already have superuser. Download and install the overcome RC1 full and flash that threw recovery.. following the guide again. you should be good to go. Hopefully your titanium backups are on external sd card
thanks, I checked the log, no denying of any applications, I will try to re-flashing once again, and see what happens. The only confusion I am having is that flashing overcome Rom requires a rooted system, since my current system is not completely rooted, is it ok? will this procedure brick my tab?
Again, thanks!
restocking shouldnt brick your tab, just clear your system and start fresh. But if your worried about bricking, make sure you are using a computer that wont just turn off in the middle of the flashing process or kids running around knocking your tab off the connector while flashing. If for some reason odin is not successful, just clear odin and try again without disconecting anything. Hope this helps
restocking ROM, seems everything is ok, thanks again,
But I could not find a version of root explorer working in this version,
it keeps shutting down saying "xx stop working", wired!
busybox
have you tried to re-install busybox?
when you open Ti Backup, click the problems button on the bottom. This will usually prompt you to update busybox. Just yes to whatever it says and wait for the application to restart.
Hit thanks if I helped!
I updated busybox through ti as suggested.
Reinstall root explorer 2.12.4, once opened, granted root access, still no luck, "sorry, the application root explorer (process com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer) has stopped unexpectedly, please try again.
really bothers me right now, any alternative app for the same function?

Why not update root explorer from the market? seeing as the latest version is 2.15?
updated to root explorer 2.15, problem solved!
Thanks a lot, guys!

[Q] SuperUser update problem

Hello there,
Last Sunday I updated my SuperUser apk to the latest version and attempted to update the SuperUser binary to 3.0.6 through the SuperUser app. The update process failed, however, and left me without a working binary. The last 2 days I've been trying to get SuperUser back up using all sorts of things, such as flashing a .zip from the SuperUser website, pushing the contents myself, and using both SuperOneClick and FlashTool, but to no avail. I really need SuperUser because of the limited hard disk in the X8.
I was hoping someone knew of another way of fixing this problem.
Also, is restoring the stock ROM (which I'm using anyways) using PCC or SEUS an option to getting my phone fully unrooted so I can reroot it?
Thanks in advance, Thom
Yes, you can restore the stock ROM via SEUS or PCC, you can re-root later.
It happened to me on sunday when i update superuser, i was using gingercruzt... i lost the root access i was not able to restore all my apps with titanium backup! so, i reinstalled gingercruzt. luck!
For me updated su works fine. Just install and update binary.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
when i updated the binary, i lost the root access too...
is not necessary restore the original rom.
step1:
make a backup
step 2:
just download “su-3.0-bin-efgh-signed” and flash via CWM
step3:
enjoy again
step4:
remeber never again update the [email protected]%& binary
http://goo-inside.me/superuser/
if it doesn't work, try other SU's like 3.0.1-bin
Hello, my firs post but not last . When I was root x8 15 days before, I installed xRecovery and link2sd, and another app. So, after I update superuser to 3.06, I lost root permissions. Now, there is no chance to access to xRecovery menu, with meny times clicking (I never didn't update android 2.1 to another version 2.2 or 2.3....).
Any help?
Does anybody know how to resolve this?? Please...

[Q] Problems with running root programs ICS 4.0.3 stock CF-rooted LQ2

Hi and thanks for reading.
I updated from a GB build to the UK LQ2 ICS via PC Odin using Dr. Ketan's guide, then rooting, again following his guide. I then applied the appropriate CF-root kernel with Mobile Odin Pro. When I rooted with CF root, I could no longer run root apps. e.g when I try to run Mobile Odin Pro, or TriangleAway, I get the app hanging on the loading screen... saying Checking SuperUser support...
Whilst this is hanging, previous applications that I've tried to run pop up notifications saying something like "Triangle Away has been granted superuser permissions for an active shell".
I think there is some sort of clash between superSU and superuser. Does anyone know how I would resolve this problem?
One thing I did notice was that in my list of apps, super su is there (v0.89), but I can't see SuperUser.
Thanks a lot!
Sorry guys,
I reinstalled su and my problems went away.

N910T acting crazy after root

So after getting my replacement N910T, I rooted it using the method here, and it seemed to go well, but during the process of reinstalling apps, I noticed some erratic behavior like the device not allowing root access when root checker says it is rooted. Or SuperSu not asking for SU access on apps that normally do, thereby denying root access, like Root Explorer. When I go back and check root checker again, sometimes it shows that it has access and other times it says that it doesn't. For a device with a supposedly unlocked bootloader, I've never encountered so many issues. My AT&T S4 which has a locked BL never gave me any issues once it was rooted. With all the devices I've rooted over the years, I've never had this much trouble. So I'm wondering if it's corrupted somehow? Or is there something about this systemless root that is the issue?
Here are the basics:
Android 5.1.1
Baseband OK2
Kernel Version 3.10.40-6209177
Build Number LMY47X.N910TUVU2DOK2
I've read threads until I'm crosseyed and googled but couldn't really come up with anything, so I could use some help here.
I had the same problem with a Note 4 Tmo I am working with. What SuperSU version are you using?
I had root issue problems (root chk says rooted, issues in ES File Expl, etc) when I used anything higher than 2.65.
Try flashing SuperSU 2.65 stable through recovery (I use TWRP 2.8.?.?) and when exiting out of recovery DO NOT allow SuperSU to be installed as SuperSU installation says...
Thanks much for the response. I'm using SuperSu 2.71; I didn't choose this version, it came with the root I got from here. So where do I find this version you're referring to?

Hi have you figured out your issue yet. If not, Try using supersu 2.52. It's the last full system root I believe. I have had much better luck with full system than systemless.

I haven't tried anything else yet, I giving my head some time to clear. I've been at this for hours now, so I need a rest. Can I find that version of SuperSu as a flash able zip?
I used the links from Chainfire's thread on XDA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Download to stable 2.65 is in that thread points to this link:
https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip
https://download.chainfire.eu/743/supersu this is link to 2.52 zip if u need it
Thanks for all the help, I'm glad this happened to someone other than me. One thing though: I'm on OK2, I thought you couldn't have system root with that.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Okay, the installation of supersu 2.52 via TWRP has definitely made a difference! The device is noticeably stabler now. One last thing, though: root checker shows it's rooted, but says that a superuser app isn't installed, which is what I thought supersu was. So now what?
Did you flash over 2.71. And do you have a su app icon on your scrren.

Yes, I just flashed it from TWRP without doing anything else. And no, there isn't a Su app icon on the screen. I have a nandroid backup that'll put it back to the way it was before I did that, just in case it crashed and burned.
Download the app from playstore and then go to settings and do a full unroot. Then reboot to recovery and flash 2.52 then wipe cache and dalviche and reboot
MUCH BETTER!!! I'm in the process of reinstalling all of my apps; I don't want to take a chance of restoring my backup from Titanium, just in case there's something that won't play right.
I'll report back in a day or so.
Thanks to everyone who provided answers, it is most appreciated!
Welcome bud.
Thank you for the information guys. I was having the same issue as OP. Reverted SU as described and everything is much smoother
Yes, it's been a few days and my device is working the way it is supposed to. Interestingly enough, my SuperSU has automatically updated to version 2.65 but it's still working fine.
I've since turned off automatic updates in Google Play for fear of getting a version that begins the cycle all over again.
I still have the issue with the device telling me that the recovery is not seandroid enforcing even though I've updated to TWRP 3.0, and the set warranty bit: kernel issue. In spite of these, my device seems to work just fine with no issues.
Thanks again to everyone who offered help. It's nice when people offer help instead of posting just to tell you to find the answer yourself.

Your welcome. And I get kernel is not seandroid enforcing on every reboot. Thought it was normal ha
My research on this has taken me all over the place, but none of the suggestions or explanations seem to apply. The device isn't ostensibly crippled, so I don't know.

I think it's normal...maybe...ha Im pretty sure it's the warranty bit
are there root for N910A 5.1.1

dok2 5.1.1 root

I'm having a heck of a time getting root on stock dok2.
i have super user in my app drawer but root explorer says it apears i dont have root. I cant delete system files. what gives? got beast kernel
I am having very similar issues with stock kernel. Still trying to figure it out.
I flashed my phone to the new CM Remix 17 rom which is rooted as well as Marshmallow 6.0. We'll worth the update. I am SM-N910T DOK2 and have had zero issues so far. There's a post in the development forum with the link to everything.
CF Auto Roots website has a new release for this phone if you want to check it out. Saw it there the other night

I was having some similar issues, try turning off "mount namespace seperation" in the supersu settings, then reboot the phone it fixed my issues.
