Go to SuperSU / Supersuser menu and from there choose full unroot. Then, reboot the device and check root access.

I am not sure about this, but you can try to install the SuperSU.apk from the play store and then see if it works...

Looking for this too
I recently upgraded to CM10.1 and am faced with the same challenge, rooting/unrooting with CM9 and superuser.apk was easy. How can I go about this now?

Help Please

I installed Xposed Installer and followed the instructions now my phone keeps restarting itself.
Any Idea how to fix? I rooted following these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066390
and followed these to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727372&page=2

What do you mean by restarting itself? Deinstall xposed again and check if you actually have root access (there is an app called root checker)

Just did that. I do not have root access according to root checker. before i installed xposed it said i was rooted. I was able to restore it in recovery from a backup i did. any Idea how I can get this going. I really just want to root to use the Dot View Case Hack.

I always recommand a toolkit of ome isnt that familiar with rooting and this stuff. Go take a look at wugfresh toolkit. It helps a lot!
But your bootloader is open, right?

Thanks a million for the help. First time on this site and nothing but awsomeness :good::good::good:

Open supersu. Is xposed listed under apps? If no, then just reinstall the xposed app. To install your module, go to http://repo.xposed.info/module-overview, search for dot view hack, download and install it. In xposed you supposed to activate your module and do a reboot. Finish!

Ok. So I DL the xposed app and installed it. I select framework then Install/Update and reboot, when i power it back on and open it says the following message
"app_process version 58 has been installed previously but version "---" was found now. If you didn't expect an old file to be restored, you might want to try installing via recovery auto or manual"
Should it say this?

Try to follow that suggestion. You seem to have a device that resets /system on a reboot.

Hello guys,
In recent days, I had seen that some members have issue regarding working xposed that was released previous.
Today, I got a new version of working xposed which is patched by @shakalaca

I tested it on ze550kl.
it also works on most zenfone series.
prerequisite are same as it was before.
phone must rooted
busy box must installed
root permission must provided to adb shell when asked
just extract archive & first run remov exposed freamework, if there is any non working xposed framework is installed & uninstall xposed apk if installed.
after that reboot system.
not to install frame work first click install xposxed frame work, let process complete & reboot system.
after that click install xposed installer.
now you have working xposed for sdk21 v78 arm64.

It should be pointed out that on my phone query window pops root rights, only after you enter in supersu (my system cant anwer permission adb shell, while manually entered into the application SuperSU)

post updated.

Works great !

sometime pop up for root rights delay due to some mismatch, like you are using patched firmware or boot image of any other system.
Pop window for root right will works well if you have original kernel installed in your phone.
e.g. if you have ze551kl & you are using boot image of ze550kl for root your phone, then you will have this issue.
In patched firmware you may face this issue due to same issue.

Now all the ZE551KL users have to use the ze550kl root method to gain root.
Does that mean all ze551kl users will face the root rights issue?

Not at all,
it happens some time.
sometime you need to open super user & after that window popup for root right, it happens due to su also.

I had the same issue.. But i fixed it by going to auto start manager... in pre-loaded apps... And switching 'Super Su'option to 'on'...
I think as the app didnt had the the permission to auto start... Prompt only comes only when we go tp app manually.... Anywayzz it worked for me...

flash official xposed-v79-sdk21-arm64.zip normally work fine for me. not patched version.
my decive: ze551kl

not working?
I have the .763 stock firmware on the ZE551KL and rooted with instructions from this thread. It seems to install and "Android is upgrading" pops up, but then there is no Xposed app to install modules from and I've tried installing Xprivacy and BootManager and both say Xposed is not installed. So I guess it didn't work

when you unzip file,there will be three bat files, installxposedframvwork, Installxposedinstaller & removexposedframework.
If you have rooted & install custom recovery, then you may flash zip file from recovery.
if you have not install custom recovery, then unzip file, first run installxposedframework, let process complete, provide root access from you phone when asked, let phone reboot.
after that run installxposedinstaller, let process complete, now you have xposed apk in you phone.
you may also download it from google play store or official thread from developer.

hi
I can't reboot from Xposed Installer
When I try and reboot through the Xposed Framework I get the following error message everytime:
tmp-mksh: <stdin>[5]: /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/cache/busybox-xposed: not found
Reboot failed. Please use the device's normal reboot function.
I had busybox installer.
Not sure what else I'm doing wrong?

Uninstall exposed

Yesterday i migrated from cm 13 to cm14.1 (galaxy a500fu) and i tried to login to Snapschat before rooting the phone as i usually did on cm13, but is not working. I rooted it then full unruted from super su, tried root switcher also, none of those worked. So i gues the cm14.1 came with xposed preinstalled(is that possible?). I searched for the unistaller for 7.1 version but i only found for 6.1 and lower. Will it work if i install one of those lower zips?

Xposed is not out yet for Nougat, you can hide root via Magisk.

Install magisk manually from apkmirror or from any other website then install magisk zip by magisk app.

Managed to install it manually, but it won't pass safetynet check. I think is becouse of the custom rom. Searched a little bit more and found out that a kernel flash would fix this. You know nay kernel for my divice which cand pass safetynet?

Mate, if you want to pass the "saftynet" then enable the "Hide root" in the app setting in Magisk Manager then try it again.
Also after you have done that go to the Magisk Hide tab and select any app you want it to work with root enabled. This will allow you to have root and be able to use apps that does not work with root.

Amazon Fire 7 (CM 12.1-20160710-UNOFFICIAL-ford) -- Lost Root and SuperSU Binary Busy

Today I was having Chromecast issues with Netflix, so I factory reset my Chromecast and then had some issues getting it set back up. I had to point the Fire 7's WIFI towards the Chromecast because it couldn't find it otherwise.
After this strange series of events, I rebooted and decided maybe I would remove Netflix and install the last good version I used. I opened Titanium Backup and was told that it could not acquire root. Then a notification for SuperSU popped-up saying "The SU binary needs to be updated!". When I click on it, SuperSU opens and says "SU Binary occupied". When I click "how to solve", I'm taken to a blank WIKI page.
I rebooted. Turned on "Root access" (for apps) in "Developer options". I then rebooted again. I am still unable to achieve Root access!
My tablet was originally running Fire OS v5.1.3 and I downgraded it to v5.1.2. I Rooted v5.1.2 using Root Junkie's tools and then installed CM 12.1 using the guide from the developer's thread.
Firstly, why did this happen or how did this happen?
Secondly, what can I do to gain Root again?

Lol. Unlock bootloader and flash latest lineage:
UNLOCK: https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/development/unlock-fire-t3899860
LINEAGE: https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/orig-development/rom-lineage-12-1-t3639447

Hello. Thank you for that reply. Both threads were very interesting! I would like Lineage on here... Unfortunately, I do not have access to Linux and fear that a lot of those steps to unlock the bootloader are beyond my current understanding.
I'll have to keep reading.
Beyond this.... is my only alternative to flash back the stock ROM, downgrade again, root, and install CM 12.1?

From the error message I am guessing that you are on SuperSU 2.82. I would try uninstalling the SuperSU apk (just the apk, don't unroot) and install version 2.79 of the apk. Sometimes I have seen that error message (on 2.82) when the su binary has somehow been deleted. It tries to replace the binary but fails. If 'daemonsu' is still present in xbin it may be possible for SuperSU to fix the installation but this works better on 2.79 than it does on 2.82.

If you have lost root your only practical options are: 1) restore FireOS and start from scratch; or 2) follow the links suggested by @Rortiz2 (here).

The best place is Chainfire's blog. A link to the page with 2.79 SR3 (bug fix update) is here: https://chainfire.eu/articles/970/SuperSU_v2.79_SR3
Download the zip file: the superuser apk is in the 'common' folder. Click on the apk file from a file browser to install. You will have to enable the option to 'install apps from unknown sources' but you will be prompted to do this if you have not already done so.

Hi. Thank you for those suggestions. I Googled quickly but am still afraid using both options is not something I'll be able to dive right into. I'm also a little confused that the guide for unlocking the bootloader mentions "Install python3, PySerial, adb and fastboot." I'm unsure how to do this for a virtual install or a bootable USB. My Linux usage dates back to a 1 month course in the mid 2000's. =P
Am I making this out to be more difficult than it actually will be?

Yes. It's very easy. The difficult part is short the pins but since you have 5th gen you don't need to do that.

That said, you have to decide if the benefit is worth the effort/hassle. In the US $64 scores a very serviceable 8" tablet at Walmart running the latest version of Android that runs circles around all Amazon offerings except the HD10.
