SuperSu in Android L - Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Was anyone able to get supersu working on this phone? I tried to flash the zip v2.38 but that didnt work.
Anyone else who would've tried?

Same here. I hope someone could get root working on lollipop.

Read the thread on General Discussion about Lollipop for Mi3. Thanks. It's already there. I am already rooted.

I did that and it was still not working thats why I made this thread. It keeps popping up su binaries are not installed and quits.

I myself rooted and doesn't have any issues. Make sure the zip file you are downloading is not corrupted. You can check it via simply opening the zip file, and if it is open without any error then the file is not corrupted.
Also update all the apps to latest since I had the root issue with Titanium backup pro old version. It should work 100%

Android Revolution HD thread down?

This may not be the appropriate place to ask, but I'm not sure where else to post this. I am not able to access the Android Revolution HD thread for half a day already. I tried it from different computers, different locations, different browsers, still no joy. Anyone else has this problem?

If you cant find a thread could be for several reasons:
OP closed/deleted
Mods closed/deleted
I´ll find out what happened with this one and let you know
I cant get in too. I try on all the machine. The error message is just not informative.
Server 500 is a webpage error.
If the op make it temp unavilable, then there should be a friendly message.

Same just happened to me after flashing 4.4.1 OTA.zip and SuperSu 1.80 with TWRP. It came up immediately upon boot.
Will try to install OTA 4.4.2 and report back ASAP
----
Pressed install & restart on OTA. It upgraded through TWRP.
Root & Custom recovery were lost as expected.
----
Reinstalled TWRP and SuperSU, all appears to be good.

OTA link please guys, it's the first thing to do when you receive an update and it's posted yet
P.S. If you already updated then it's too late to get the link from you.
I just got it as well. I never got 4.4.1 though...
I just got the same exact thing, and came on here to see if anyone else had seen this. Camera improvements sound good, but I don't want to lose root or mess anything up.
I have a problem, tried to install it, reboot in recovery and gave me an error, so reboot it in normal mode and when I check again for updates doesn't appear anymore.
How can I install it now?

I don't have the link it downloaded from (it's downloaded but not installed on my phone yet, not that I think it will work, since I don't have stock recovery) but I did copy the file.
I just tried it, it rebooted to twrp and then nothing. Rebooted, still on 4.4.1??

You can get the OTA filename from logcat. If the OTA failed to apply, you can probably redownload it through the updater and capture the filename. The rest is just URL hacking.

Can't down load update

I have kingroot installed no custom rooms and software version 4.3. I have tried to update my software and it stops at about 25% every time. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks
You will have to do the Restore to MJ5 tutorial in the general section.
Root normally screws up the update.

What if i wanted to remove everything from the phone root/safestrap and go back to stock?
Root doesn't screw up the update- Kingo does. I was in your exact shoes.
I did the MJ5 restore, rooted, did the OTA update and then did step 10 again for root. Works perfectly. Then I did Drakey's GPS Fix and now everything works great.

I'm sorry, that is incorrect. Root will mess up an update. Kingo roots the device, that is it.

Perhaps anecdotal, but I went in circles with Kingo. Couldn't unroot, couldn't update. Its method of rooting is not the same as other 'conventional' ways.
After restoring and rooting via the MJ5 restore process, I updated to NB4 with no issues. I didn't need RootCloak or anything of the sort. There are others. I haven't read of others successfully updating w/Kingo root. I could be wrong.
I did remove the root using kingroot web site but the safestrap was still there. I could not up date the phone. So i reinstalled kingroot again and iam back to square one, a rooted phone but cant up date.

open safestrap uninstall recovery then go to your app manager and uninstall bootstrap then unroot
So here my problem like an idiot i tryed to unroot with out deleting any of the apps and programs (safeboot,titanium). So i had to to reroot and the safestrap is still there. I have dont see this file in application manager, but if i restart my safestrap comes up on my screen. Its safstrap 3.71 (twrp v2.6.31) i dont see a delete button.

I have been buried in XDA threads for a few years trying to learn as much as I can (thanks for that by the way)
The title of this thread is Can't download update so I hope I am asking this in the right place.
Plus over time I have come to learn that jerrycoffman45 is damn good at this stuff...
First off when I go to the MEGA site (https://mega.co.nz/#!Hd1QnA7b!MV5i7du4oim9zKLArQl51tTYiymqIXMhaALsMjFHRyQ) to download the "Coming from JB" for KNOXRAID KITKAT ROM V5.1 it works normal until it gets to 99 percent.
I've tried it on all 4 of my computers with the same result = is there another way I can get it?
Secondly, after I install the AllianceROM (thank you RErick) and am setting it up, my phone starts playing the boot animation like it keeps restarting like every other minute or so.
I really want to use the AllianceROM and could not find anything related to this when searching the thread or the entire forum.
Any help would really be appreciated!!!
Try using Internet Explorer or Chrome to download from Mega. It is a picky site.
Try to do a factory reset in the stock recovery. I have had to do that a few times right after installing a ROM to get it to boot properly.

try downloading the mega app then downloaded it on your phone with that app now for alliance rom sounds like you might have a bad download if there is no md5 to check i try opening the zip on the computer usually if it is bad it will give a error if the download is good reread the op for the rom and make sure you are following the instructions to install the rom and this is not the right thread for this you should have started a new one if none of this works pm me
edit try what graydiggy said first
I was going to suggest the mega app, but since he seems to be having trouble with booting, it was pointless to mention.

I used to reed these threads and told myself that I would not waste the developers time with questions I could find the answer to my self...
That being said I did follow the instructions to the tee
I also tried creating a new fresh slot in safestrap and wiped it and flashed it a number of times following the examples given at different points of the threads
I have learned to follow the process that drakeymcmb has posted (wipe 3 times flash twice) on every install I do especially it its not working
I have 3 separate zip files downloaded to cover the corrupt file issue BUT I have not tried graydiggy's suggestion
If that does not work I will PM you if I figure out how to do that...
I try to give you as many thanks as I can and understand why people donate = you guys deserve it
Heck, I have paid good money for support as an IT manager and the techs were not as helpful as you guys are
One thing more, could you please direct me to the best thread to learn the proper protocols for XDA posting...
Thank you again

It asked the same for me, I just said yes, although for some reason binaries seem to fail at updating. But when using an app that requires root, Super SU still asks to allow root to tha app. I also used Titanium Backup Pro to freeze three apps relating to Knox. You can also do that as well, just to be safe.

Just FYI it was not actually a link to the SuperSU app the user just stated that he went to the website and downloaded the latest SuperSU files and manually installed SuperSU and then the updated apk. As you said after installing the new SuperSU.apk version it updates properly.

Did you gave root access to xposed? Do you even rooted your device?
Grab a logcat, it'll show the actual reason why it's failing.
You can also install it through ADB (or `pm` from a terminal emulator), that'll directly give you the exact error.

I've normally only seen that error when the file is already in the system somewhere. I don't know the file structure of an LG phone and I'm sure it's completely different than a Samsung. Check also in data/app
