Galaxy S4: Superuser Error Message

[falconsrulz]

I'm new to all this so bare with me...

I switched over to Android recently and have the Galaxy s4, model sch-i545. I rooted it using motochopper and now when I click on Superuser I have to Install it. When I click install though "There was an error installing Superuser. Please send a log of the error to the developer" pops up. This is nothing like Cydia, so I'm pretty lost. I've been all over google trying to find a solution, but have gotten nowhere.

Welcome to the forums!
Could you link to the root method you used?

Re: Superuser Error Message

If you have a custom recovery you need to flash it through there there is a flashable version of it on the super.su in the official thread on xda

must have unlocked boot loaders!!

Depends on your phone and android version unless your on any other phone besides at&t and verizon twith an official kit kat your not going to be able to root as the boot loader is locked and the only root method is to flash a custom kernel and reflash the official letting root access so basically if you took kit kat there is no root method and your sd card is useless and theres not a damn thing you can do about it

must have unlocked boot loaders!!

OK the active is slightly different if your on mk2 use the verizon safe root it's based off of moto chopper but it's modified for the gs4 the active has slightly different internals so it might not work
Btw I can't really read that it's blurred take a screen shot... quickly press the power button and the home button it's a bit to get used to but you'll get it and attach it from your gallery from the app
