Get the latest SuperSU Update to v1.51 for Android 4.3 Rooted Devices, Works on Nexus 4, 7,10 and Galaxy Nexus

SuperSU is now the most robust tool for Android smartphone's today, without it, it might not possible to let owners enjoys the full privilege of using the 'Superuser Access' rights for all the apps in the device that needs root. The Android Open Source Project source-codes has been finally taking into the next step, and now comes on Android 4.3 of  which basically available first to all Google's owned flagship devices - Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 10 and the Nexus 7.  When it comes to get root access to devices that already runs with Android 4.3, SuperSU is the only tool that do that job well.



Chainfire the world well-known developer of the SuperSU has also released another update to version 1.50. This is update will now also works and compatible to all latest ROM that is built based on latest AOSP 4.3.

SuperSU v1.50 released
Another day another update - and unless some major issues arise, quite likely the last one until September. I recommend all end-users on 4.3 update immediately, as root-app-devs will be unlikely to want to support quirks of the previous releases.

There also much more changes about this update than the previous version 1.45 but unfortunately only supports for later released devices runs with  ARMv7 CPU's.

ARMv5 compatibility dropped - Due to some incompatibilities in the new code for 4.3, and not wanting to create a maintenance nightmare for myself, I have dropped support for ARMv5. The last ARMv5 (and v6) compatible version is v1.45.
It has been quite some time since the last flagship device came out running an older version than ARMv7, the small number of SuperSU users who are still using it will be unlikely to benefit (much) from further updates to SuperSU anyway.

Those, who might having issues like copying and deleting files from internal storage, Chainfire also acknowledge on how to resolve such issue. Just head over to +Chainfire page or at XDA, to learn more about this updated version and grab that SuperSU v1.50 file now.

Update:
Version 1.51 rolling,
29.07.2013 - v1.51
- Some 4.3 time-handling code caused problems on < 4.3 devices, making some root apps stop working

Paint On Galaxy Z Fold7 Phones Is Already Peeling Off, According To Consumers

The paint chipping issue reported by some Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 users appears to be a recurring problem that was also seen with the Z Fold 6. Despite users claiming they have not dropped their devices, paint delamination is occurring on the anodized aluminum body. Samsung’s support page for the Z Fold 6 suggests that poorly grounded third-party chargers can cause leakage currents, damaging the anodized finish and leading to paint chipping. This is why Samsung advises using only official chargers. However, since at least one affected user on Reddit reported using an official 25W Samsung charger, it raises concerns that the problem might not be solely due to third-party chargers. It could indicate potential issues with Samsung’s paint application process or possibly that their chargers might not fully prevent this damage under certain conditions. Received the phone and been using for almost a week. Treated the phone like a baby but the paint seems to start peeling off (sort of) day by ...
