Working. But keep getting binary out of date toast. How do I update the binary

U70%
by U####:

Very poor experience with this application disagree device name samsung galaxy note 2

C70%

Great developer. Willing to help anyone having problems.

Q70%
by Q####:

As someone said, root requests should be pop-up's instead of full screen notifications

A70%
by A####:

That full screen prompt window look very weird

X70%
by X####:

In need of a UI update ASAP. It will be 2017 in some days... When you set the option for "auto-accept/deny" root, the POPUP window shouldn't pop... up. Fix this bug - it exists from the Ice Cream(4.0) era in CyanogenMod.

Su binary is out of date notification.

The su binary is out of date .

X70%
by X####:

good, but some apps fail to ask for root. ViPER4Android is just one such example.

X70%
by X####:

Keeps saying binary out of date...

X70%
by X####:

Be nice if the dev provides info regarding rooting the device so this app will work with the corresponding rooted binary. Otherwise, a good alternative to CF SuperSU that has been bought by a shady Chinese company. Like many others, I'll be migrating from SuperSU to this app due to security concern.

U70%
by U####:

Great functionality. Terrible interface. It tells me the su binary is out of date. In the app there is no ability to update it. Also, there is no option to uninstall root.

X70%
by X####:

Works very well as does Android Pay on a rooted phone. UPDATE: Last night after rebooting my phone, I got a message that superuser's binary needed to be updated?? I had then lost root. Everything else seemed fine, but even rebooting didn't restore root and there was no apparently way to "fix" or "update" it. This morning, I reflashed the magisk v6 zip file in TRWP, rebooted back to Recovery and flashed the phh-supersuer-17-magisk.zip file and then rebooted and it was back to normal. Note that the root checker sees root, but not the binaries but root is working just fine.

X70%
by X####:

Keeps telling me the su binary needs to be updated. Tapping the notification brings me to a mostly blank screen within this app. I see no option to update my binary from in there. Root seems to be working just fine.

P70%
by P####:

As a long-time SuperSU user, I've been quite pleased with my transition to using this version of Superuser. Bundled with Magisk it has been a perfect option for root access to my device without compromising some of the built in features of the latest and greatest Android versions. I'd highly recommend giving this a try if you're looking into Magisk at all... even if you aren't looking at Magisk!

X70%
by X####:

Still fiddly when handling root requests from certain apps, ie. V4A, AdAway, etc but all in all amazing root manager app. Feels more lightweight than Chainfire's.

X70%
by X####:

Since hearing that Chinafire sold himself to an unknown Chinese shell company, I've been suspicious of SuperSU. If the prompt could be a pop-up, it would be one huge improvement!

X70%
by X####:

Great app but lacks some of the functions that chainfires supersu app has, such as mount namespace setting. I have to keep supersu installed along with this app just for that ONE function.

R70%
by R####:

A great alternative to SuperSU! SuperSU had a bug where I couldn't connect my phone to a computer and using this doesn't pose any probs!

X70%
by X####:

I have to say that it's a very nice feeling to show the finger to the shady bunch at CCMT.

X70%
by X####:

Mind blowing app better than SuperSu app ......Loved that it had options to accept root access for one time or ten minutes or forever

O70%
by O####:

This is worth money! Worked when the other method people use didn't work. Almost all reviews are 5 stars for a reason. This works great.

H70%
by H####:

Super easy to unroot and reroot by flashing either the binary or stock boot in recovery. Would still love a dark theme.

D70%
by D####:

The only opensource SU app. Others are propitiatory BS malware for Windows idiots.

C70%
by C####:

I did notice that root was lost after I rebooted my phone (for another reason) ,but after a little tinkering around I found if you go into phone settings then developers options and change the root setting from whatever it's on to a different setting then root is restored ..BTW I'm on galaxy note 2 running cm13 rom ......G2KEA ..pika pika.

G70%
by G####:

Amazing - after chainfire decided to transfer ownership to a relatively unknown company I decided to give this app a try and this works surprisingly well. A small improvement - the su request should be a pop up rather than a full screen prompt.

Keeps telling me su binary is out of date but I see no options in app to perform said update. Tried to find a flashable one online, so such luck yet.

C70%
by C####:

I like this superuser app, and I've sort of got it working with Android Pay, with Xposed & Magik Mask; Root Checker confirms root and SafetyNet Helper passes. however... Superuser doesn't show any prompts, toasts or logs. This could be something to do with the way I've installed - when I check my phone's overview with SD Maid, the Su binary shows as Chainfire 2.72 I can't find anything obvious (to me) in the XDA thread, as I've flashed the supplied superuser.zip and there is nothing in the app itself about updating binaries Edit - I've got it to work thanks to a full rom system update which would have removed Chainfire's SU binary, flashing Magisk-v2.zip seemed to sort everything out, too bad my bank isn't on Android Pay & this doesn't help get my banking app (Barclays) to work yet

I got a notification about su binaries needed to updated. I tapped it then it launched the app and nothing happened. It didn't update binaries like supersu would, but instead it launched the app normally like I launched it from the home screen. But now my root isn't working, and there's nothing in settings or anything on how to fix

D70%
by D####:

It works best with Magisk. But I think the UI of this app is not friendly as SuperSU's and should be improved

C70%
by C####:

Certain root apps previously not working with systemless root are good to go, AP accepting transactions; real forward thinking collaboration with Magisk. Thanks, y'all

Y70%
by Y####:

Works great with Magisk, can support tap to pay compared to SuperSU and others. Works great, never had a problem with root and root apps so far... Those people asking the Binaries must not have flashed the Zip file via recovery

C70%
by C####:

Every time i turn the pad on it ask me to update the binary files, but i can't seem to find it in the app. Where is the update binary function?

C70%
by C####:

Root, AP working with magisk. I have found a bug though, it's graphical not critical. Where can I submit it?

C70%
by C####:

So glad to have a good open source option for root on Android again. Good on the developer for caring, I hope there is a way I can donate to further development.

C70%
by C####:

After Chainfire sold SuperSU out to a shadowy shell company I ran into this. With the proper zip flashed this works with every su-requesting app I've tried with it.

C70%
by C####:

Anyone who still uses SuperSU need to rethink the value of their privacy. High time we got an open source alternative to the top.

Great developer. Willing to help anyone having problems.
