    "there is no su binary installed and supersu cannot install it" I'm getting this prompt when ever I run supersu since my moto g got updated from kitkat 4.4.4 to lollipop 5.0.1. I was using a rooted device before the update! but now I want my phone back to Kitkat because my moto g 1 is not able to handle lollipop and hangs alot! So please help me out with this.Thank you!

    @shaownsaha7426 Před 7 lety

    hey Ash,
    I used my moto G2 for near about a year. I installed a custom Rom of marshmallow when the official Rom of it was not published.
    After installation the rom I used it for 2 days & then suddenly it shut down & never turned on till now.
    by pressing power & vol. down button there is no response. Only when I connect my mobile to charger or PC the notification light up, but nothing on the display.
    what to do?
    Thanks,
    Shaown

  • @MrRustyBob
    @MrRustyBob Před 9 lety

    I assume this will also work on the first generation Motorola Moto 3 (prepaid) verizion phone. Yes ? No ?
    Also, I understand that this "prepaid" cell phone is GSM. Unlike the contract version which is CDMA. So, what I am working towards is a Moto G Tracfone, by way of the "bring your own phone". I should be able to do this, if the phone is unlocked. Yes ?
    If you could, give this old penny pincher some feedback. Thanks
