Question on Root - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
Just got a used note 5 and when trying to update software it says it's rooted so it can't be updated.
I see it is on 5.1.1
No superuser was on it after a master reset
So my questions are the following
How can I verify if it is indeed rooted
How can I flash recovery if I install the supersu from the market
Thank you for the help!

Difficulty Rooting Newest RUU

Hello everyone,
I'm having an issue - I wasn't able to flash the newest extracted firmware in the development section so I went ahead and just ran the full RUU. I've been running custom roms for years and I decided that maybe I just wanted to run stock rooted for a while so I unlocked my bootloader again, flashed the most recent TWRP and installed the most recent SuperSU zip.
Unfortunately it does not seem to have rooted my phone. SuperSU is indeed installed in the system folder and it prompts for root permission when I use root apps, but even when I grant permission the apps cannot obtain root access. What happens is it looks like they are going to get root access, the phone slows down a bit for a second, and then I get an error message from the app in question saying that either my phone isn't rooted or that root permission has been denied. If I open SuperSU, it lists all of my root apps with the green hashtag indicating that permission is granted.
Am I correct in assuming that installing SuperSU did not root my phone? If so, is there a way to root without installing a custom rom?
For clarification, this is all on the most recent RUU, software version 6.23.651..10, Lollipop 5.0.2
Thanks in advance.
Which version of SuperSU are you flashing?

Well I'm a dolt, I was using v1.69 but now I see that is a very old version. Going to try 2.46 right now, thanks.
Edit: Same issue on 2.46 :/
For anyone still looking at this thread, I was able to achieve root by flashing the newest SuperSU, version 2.52 which is actually still in beta and therefore not offered if you go to the main portion of the SuperSU website.
SuperSU v2.65 is the current stable offering

Lost root | SuperSU | There is no SU binary | MM 6.0.1 | Note 5 SM-N920C

06.06.2016
Hey,
I have Note 5 SM-N920C MM 6.0.1
Lost my root today after 4 week of that I using it (apps like "Titanium backup" and "Uninstall" doesn't work)
when you get into SuperSU I get the flowing massage
"There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem! If you just upgraded to Android 5.0 [***ANY ANDROID VERSION***] , you need to manually re-root. [OK]"
I try to install SuperSU from google play again and I run into the exact same situation as before.
Checked it with Root Checker "sorry root access is not properly installed on the device"
Tried to re-root it with Kingo root (for the 1st time) getting "Root Failed"
If you have any ideas what to do I would be happy for your ideas
(I pretty new to it, it's my 1st android device had iPhone 2/4/4s/5 before )
Happened to me today as well. Xposed claimed there is a module update (although the only module I had is lucky patcher, and that wasn't updated). After a reboot, I lost root access and custom recovery...
Happened to me since a week ago... Anyone has any fix available for this?? Please help..
I have same issue
I was trying to re-root:
Flash stock system.img (june security update)
Flash stock boot.img (june security update)
Flash supersu
Flash elementalX
No profit ☹
I’m using:
twrp-2.8.6.0-shamu
ElementalX-N6-3.16
Systemless supersu 2.74 ( on I have 2.65 same issue)

You need to root
Frist flash recovery custom example TWRP next flash file zip application su 2.74-2 in TWRP ...
This happened to me too. I followed the procedure New Root Method For 5.1.1 w/o custom kernel. It worked for 3 weeks, and then without warning root was gone. Exactly same behavior as OP.
I Flashed SuperSU again from TWRP recovery, and have root again. But I want to understand why this happened so I can prevent it. I don't get OTA updates, and automatic updates are disabled. What could "break" the systemless root without causing a request I would have to allow? I have three applications enabled for root in SuperSU Pro: Adblock Plus, EX FIle Explorer Pro, and Titanium Backup.
Hey,
I have the same pb with GN4 6.01
i fix it with super su 2.68 with twrp-3.0.2-0-trltexx.img, clean dalvik cache et cache
reboot

I lost root as well! Im on note 5 6.0.1. I had been doing fine until I flashed the nexus launcher. The launcher flashed properly but lost root after that. Ive tried to re-root again and I cant because 1. I lost TWRP! 2. My pc wont read my phone even though I installed and unistalled the samsung drivers over and over. When I install the drivers it initially works but once I turn my phone off it wont work again! Anyone know how to fix it!?

Guys, Help!

I'm new here. I rooted my tablet. I installed SuperSU on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Editon). Says, it was successful. I second that because I got the same result just like in the tutorial I watched. But when I checked if my tablet is really rooted, the Root Checker said "Sorry! Root is not properly inatalled on this device." I reinstalled the root again then checked again but still says no root access. I tried to uninstall the root twice but it's still there. I tried to update SU binary as it says hoping it will give me root access. But I'm still having trouble installing it. Please guys, help me. I want to have root access but I think I messed up.
Did you flash SuperSu.zip in your custom recovery, or you just installed super su from google play store ?
