yeah but it was hard.
first upgrade to unrooted .402 (flash .402 with flashtool)
then run easyroot v5 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784900
i had to do it twice for some reason
next install dual recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785598
it should boot you into recovery after install, if not something went wrong
i think dualrecovery should install the ndrutils app, but if not get it from the play store and set your recovery to twrp
then download supersu from here and sideload http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
when prompted to update binaries, select twrp/cwm and then load into twrp after reboot (vol down i believe), go to reboot your system and you should be prompted to fix root on reboot
your binaries should then be fixed

[ROOT][Custom Recovery][Updating] Easiest way

I am new to A116 but an old android fan so when I bought the mobile I thought of rooting it but as many have some problem, I am going to give the easiest rooting method which may work for any devices.
It works on the latest stock rom too.
Rooting:
Method 1: Can be done from mobile
Requirements:
Framaroot (search on Google )
Steps:
1)Open Framaroot
2)Select the exploit such as Boromir
3)It will ask you to restart. Just Restart
4)Now Ur Rooted. But the SuperSU is old.
Method 2:Can be done from mobile with Computer
Requirements:
1)SP Flash Tools (Search on Google)
2)TWRP or CWM (Get it from here)
TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2539763
CWM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290174
3)Latest SuperSU zip (Search on Google)
4)Knowledge of Flashing through SP Flash Tools
Steps:
1)Copy the SuperSU zip to root of your SD card
2)Flash the recovery through SP Flash Tools
3)Now goto recovery and flash the SuperSU zip
4)Now ur rooted. The latest SuperSU is installed into the system along with the new binary.
Alternate Step:
1)If you have flashed CWM recovery and have not downloaded the SuperSU zip then you can still root the phone.
2)Just get into recovery and then click to restart system.
It will ask to root the device.
3)Go to the Yes option and when u restart, your phone will be rooted. But the SuperSU is old. So update from PlayStore
Updating to Custom Recovery:
Method 1: Can be done from mobile
Requirements:
1)U r Rooted
2)Mobile Uncle MTK Tools(Download from PlayStore)
3)TWRP or CWM recovery(Download from above given links)
Steps:
1)Now if you have the recovery downloaded then copy it to root of your SD card and rename it to recovery.img
2)Open the Mobile Uncle MTK Tools and grant SuperSU permission
3)Go to recovery update option and click on the recovery.img
4)It will ask to reboot. Now here is the critical step. Just wait 10-15 secs without rebooting because if you reboot suddenly then the recovery that the MTK tools is copying will be stopped and the recovery will get corrupted and when you boot into recovery, u will just see black screen.
This means take out the battery and do the steps again.
5)Now you have a custom recovery installed to flash ur zips
Method 2:Can be done from computer only
No need to be rooted
Requirements:
1)SP Flash tools
2)Knowledge of flashing through flash tools
3)Custom Recovery Downloaded
Step:
This is just like flashing ur rom but instead of choosing all the partition in the recovery, just tick the recovery partition and show where u have the recovery downloaded.
Now click download and after it is finished
U can go to recovery to see if it is flashed successfully.
Updating to latest SuperSU:This can only be done through mobile
Method 1:
1)Update from PlayStore.
2)Then open it and update the su binary
3)Now you can do it normally but if it fails you can choose the CWM/TWRP option to go to recovery and update the binary.
4)Now open SuperSU and go to option of installing it into the system.
5)Now reboot and check if installed because if not installed, root is lost and u have to root again.
Now 2nd method is the surest and best method to update to latest SuperSU and have the binary installed automatically
Method 2:
1)Download the latest SuperSU zip
2)Enter the recovery and flash the zip.
3)Now u can reboot to see that latest SuperSU is installed directly into the system
Q) Now users may ask why do we need to install SuperSU into system?
A) It is very simple. U may have a app that ask for root permission just after booting.
If SuperSU is not is installed in system then the permission will be denied and app stops working. This may be critical if u apps like Seeder or Greenify or Link2Sd or such installed and the permission gets denied.
Don't worry root is not lost but it is delayed to the time when your SD card is fully mounted by the system.
This type of delay can be experienced by anyone who has lots of apps installed.
Sometimes due to quickly booting the SD card gets mounted later thus the delay again.
So it's better if you install the SuperSU into system. This way no problem will occur.
Thanks for reading. Hopefully this will help everyone.
Hit thanks if it helped "YOU"

[Q] problem for updating superSU

Supersui can't update my superSU Binar.
I iinstall another version still can't update..
Please help
I had the same problem with 2 Z Ultras. In both cases EasyRootTool didn't finish it's job properly on the first run. The batch file stopped while 'cleaning up...'. On both phones Titanium Backup ran without issues, but several other errors occurred, one being SuperSU not updating. I just used EasyRootTool once respectively three times again, until it finished the job properly.
And don't forget to install Xposed, the best software for rooted phones
Root your device again with towelroot and try re-install supersu from chainfire! and then reboot and after that update the binaries!

xt1524 root on new 6.0 update

hi, i recived the 6.0 update OTA today
my phone was on 5.0.2, bootloader unlocked, supersu rooted
using supersu option i removed the root, this to be able to install OTA (leaving supersu result in "update error")
updated to 6.0 succesfully
downloaded lastest stable supersu v2.65
downloaded twrp-surnia-3.0.2-r1
booted twrp without flashing (i don't want to install twrp) do this way in 5.0 and 5.0.2 adn worked
flashed supersu
phone stay at "warning screen"
to restore the phone i downoaded the 6.0 zip and flasched back the "sparsechunk.x" files
how to get the root back again in 6.0??
thanks.
exactly the same here, even with supesu 2.71 beta
You have to install the superSU v2.62-3 (it installs systemless mode) OR in the terminal of the TWRP enter "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu" (without the quotes) and then flash the version you want, in order to force the systemless install. I still recommend just use v2.62-3.
Supersu zip v2.62-3 and try: http://download.chainfire.eu/751/Sup...1211162651.zip
thinks @basili
I finally managed
That worked for me too
how
thanks it worked fo rme too
simply install TWRP 3.0.2r1 then supersu.2.62.3
I have a question. I installed the SuperSU 2.62.3 like its recommended in post #3, but Google Play shows that there is an update. Can I update it safely now?
i have my bootloader unlocked and everything ive followed every detail and it said flashed recovery was successful but how do i access twrp im only getting stock recovery plz any advice will be greatly appreciated thx in advance for your help

Newest SuperSU Beta on OOS3

To succesfully install the newest Versions of SuperSU you have to install it in systemless mode. If you flash the ZIP it will install it in /system mode, so you have to force the systemless install.
Before you flash the newest Beta SuperSU.zip go to the TWRP terminal and write:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
Then flash the ZIP.
SuperSU will be installed in systemless mode and your Phone will boot up fine.
I'm getting stucked in boot logo +1... after installing some apps, with root permissions, like Viper4android, DPI changer, SElinux permissive... don't know what happend. what should i do?
I try this, but still stuck at boot logo...
This method doesn't resolve a boot loop when it is caused by something else. I would recommend you to do a clean install and then install your desired apps one by one with a testing reboot in between to see which app is causing your boot loop.

Is there a way to do this from stock recovery on an encrypted phone?
