CWM aborted the installation with 'error 0' - three times I tried it.

@PonsAsinorem Actually I just used Link2Sd to freeze it - this has removed it from the app drawer and stopped the Market nags, yet the file is still there in case other apps like to see that it is there! This seems to me like the perfect solution:)
[SuperSU] shaggyskunk:
What kind of phone do you have?

You could see if you can flash recovery with TWRP - get goomanager from the market (the beta) - open it - hit Menu - Install open recovery script.

TWRP is way faster than any cwm for backups & it's kick a$$ all round!

Wildfire S GSM, so TWRP is a bit risky to install. I've got a nice, stable CM 7.2 set-up which is working nicely and don't want to take too many risks until I'm closer to upgrade time!
[SuperSU] shaggyskunk:
I didn't say that installing twrp is "a bit risky to install". Certainly less risk than flashing cm7. TWRP is, in my opinion, the best recovery available.

I know you didn't say that, it's just that the port for the WFS looks a bit buggy to me with quite a few people experiencing bootloops etc. I would like to give it a go but perhaps should hang on a bit longer till the bugs can be ironed out.
[SuperSU] shaggyskunk:

I'd still strongly recommend that you try TWRP! Solid backups of 1.4 Gig in about 170 seconds!

system updates

I am new to Android and I hope somebody helps me:

I just rooted my HTC One X. Now I have a system update downloaded on my phone and I don't know - can I install system updates after rooting the device? I tried to instal it, but it gave me an error message. Why? (I also wiped the device a day after I rooted it. Did this change something?)
[SuperSU] king_lud:
You can't install official OTA updates on a rooted device; it is a downside of rooting but it is a small price to pay...
[SuperSU] efrant:
Not sure about non-Nexus devices, but you certainly CAN install official OTA updates on rooted Nexus devices...
[SuperSU] tiho5:
Thank you both for replying. I have an HTC one x. What about the updates on it? Can I, or not for this device when (if) rooted...? Thanks again

Love this apparently that allows me to run my apparently that detect root by simply unchecking a box in settings to disable root.

Have you considered adding an option fir a status bar warning icon when rooted for us who regularly run rooted only when necessary?
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
SuperSU has been updated to v0.95. Only a minor update, a number of features I had planned for this version did not make it in, but I have other projects waiting for this release, so it has to be now.

Play Store will take the usual hours to update, or you can download the CWM zip from the first post.
[SuperSU] iXNyNe:
The supersu app doesn't seem to have any information about what version of the supersu binary is in use, or a way to manually check for updates.

Plain old superuser gives us the option to replace even if the binary reads current, which I feel is nice in case something went haywire with the binary and it needs replacing.

Could this be added?
[SuperSU] p1lo:
Thanks Boss!
[SuperSU] Pons:
That's because the su binary is (I'm pretty sure) packaged with SuperSU, while I know Superuser downloads the binary. As such, there's currently no way to get a new su binary for SuperSU, unless you install a new version of the app. Even then sometimes it uses the previous binary because it didn't get changed between versions.
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
Absolutely correct.
[SuperSU] GerBBAR14_c:
Perfect. Thank you!

Just bought the Pro version.
[SuperSU] iXNyNe:
Which is why I'm asking for the ability to update or at least reinstall in case something goes wrong. Reinstalling from the market isn't always am option if no network connection is available. Also like I said knowing what version of the binary is installed would still be handy.
[SuperSU] jwds1978:
Not saying it's a bad idea, but if you don't have a network connection, how would you be downloading the binary even? If I remember correctly, the old SU application downloads it when you force the binary update as well; needing a network connection to do so.
[SuperSU] 3rdstring:
download the cwm zip & keep it on your sdcard.
[SuperSU] adell_:
Then why it asks to download the binary?
[SuperSU] osm0sis:
Because the binary is still a separate file from the apk.
[SuperSU] adell_:
Does this mean it doesn't require an internet connection to download?
[SuperSU] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, because you do not download it, you install it from another location.

It is a strange logic that if somebody isn't happy, they need to go away. Why not improve the app and/or fix the problem?
[SuperSU] shaggyskunk:
You missed the part about devs doing their best to keep them current & working? How many updates has Chainfire & the other devs produced - Isn't THAT fixing & improving?

People who are demanding that the devs respond to every single request are using what kind of logic?

This may be OT, if it is I'm sorry. I'm a software developer, granted not for Android, but a developer none the less. Just from what I've read in this thread alone, many of you that post bug reports are expecting Chainfire to jump and immediately fix whatever issue you are having. I've been developing software for almost 20 years folks. It doesn't work this way. Even if the software is bought and paid for, the developer is not required to answer bug reports or feature requests, nor is he required, although it's expected, to update and/or fix his software.

Granted, most devs want their products to be the best that they can be. I have a full time job as an electrician, but I write software too. I do what I can for my product users, as I can, not when they demand that I do something. That's the facts of a developers life.

My two cents again... Cheers
[SuperSU] Pons:
Also, this is a hobby. This isn't the dev's job. He has a real job, family, life, etc out outside of Android. If he relied solely on this, it might not pay his bills, so he has to focus on his responsibilities, and not hobbies.

How much did you pay for SuperSU Pro (I forget because I purchased it when it first came out)? Probably not more than $5, and I doubt it was that much. He's still actively working on this, but the fact that everyone expects a lifetime license with free upgrades for a mere $5 is pretty ridiculous. Give the dev some time.

The CWM zip linked the OP will replace Superuse with SuperSU sot that's all you have to do is flash the zip.
[SuperSU] bsoplinger:
Not sure if this is a bug report or feature request...

I've been using it since the day it was released. Once Chainfire explained why that although SuperSU seemed broken because it was promoting for su rights to programs that already had been granted rights it actually was designed that way for added security. If a new version of an app was installed rights had to be granted again. Even ended up with a preference for this behavior. And once I understood the reasoning I like the added security it offers.

But what I hate is having to go back into SuperSU to properly change the behavior for the new version of the app back to what I'd set it to before. It seems to me that if I've defined certain settings for app xyz then even if a new version of xyz gets installed I still want whatever settings were defined for the last version of xyz and not the default values. And this should be independent of whether I chose the extra security of SuperSU prompting for rights on a new version.

I think you're the only person who considers that as a "maybe". Maybe aside from your friends at 4pda you linked earlier who all use a pirated Pro version linked in that very same thread. So I'm not sure I should be listening to you at all, really.

Interesting thought. I will have a ponder on this.
[SuperSU] Cyb0rgz:
I'm using 4EXT recovery touch, is that zip file compatible with that?

In recovery, I just need to install zip from ad card right? (Sorry I'm beginner)

Superuser can be overwritten by this method? As I mentioned earlier, in custom Rom superuser is preinstalled. That's why worry, doing wrong thing may unroot my device.

Please confirm..

[SuperSU] bsoplinger:
To further explain why it seems broken for me...

I must have about 20 apps total installed that use root. A handful get used regularly, as in run numerous times in an hour. I have no desire to see the pop-up about granted rights for these. However for the others, especially the run only once in a month ones, I really want that pop-up to remind me that I even have the app and its running.

Which brings me to one of those regularly used apps that gets updated frequently because the developer is both trying fixes and adding new functionality. And suddenly a few times a week sometimes I grant the app rights and suddenly 10 times in a minute I see the rights pop-up for the new version of the app because I have the pop-up on by default but off for that app.

I guess I could get the same functionality by turning the pop-up off by default then going to the individual app list and turning it back on for each individual "low usage" app but that seems backwards to me.

[SuperSU] Pons:
To test this theory, type this command in a terminal:

df /system

How about in the next version a more verbose logging (at least as far as updating su binary goes, as well as more/any info on what the current/to-be-installed su binary) ? Superuser does this to an extent. It tells you what it's doing and if it succeeds or fails. Also says the current version and next version of su binary. Makes it easier to troubleshoot the problem, plus I like to know as much as possible what my rooted apps are doing. Plus, this way, I don't have to tell people to install Superuser app to check on SuperSU. For example, see my next comment.

It's not going to ask you to update the binary, since part of the flash installed the latest binary. Thus, no update. To verify, ensure you have 0.96 SuperSU installed. Now install Superuser from the market. Under Superuser, swype to the left, and look at su binary. Should say something similar to SuperSU 0.96.

Now uninstall superuser if you want.
[SuperSU] shaggyskunk:
Maybe my question was not clear - every time that I reboot my phone, the superSU version reverts to .95 When I flash .96 zip & the phone reboots 9 out of 10 times, I don't see 96 superSU it's 95 that the phone is running, even though it says that 96 zip was successfully flashed.
