We recently told you that legendary Android developer “Chainfire” was calling it quits with SuperSU, but will make his quitting a gradual process. In the meantime, he said he will still be involved in SuperSU – anyone who has ever attempted to gain root access to his/her Android device will surely know what SuperSU is. To prove that he is still involved, here’s a new development on the app – a root process that does not modify the Android system partition in any way.
To give you an idea of how to gain root access on modern Android versions, the tweak files should execute upon boot. This is normally done by modifying Android’s /system partition. The idea was to leave the system partition alone and just modify the boot image, since everything that gets started up on boot resides there anyways. It looks like Chainfire has done this, albeit on an experimental level for now.
Currently, this new method works only for Nexus devices that have Android Marshmallow on them. Since it is a totally different process, users would have to start with a fresh, unmodified version of Android 6.0 installed to do this. Essentially, all you have to do is flash the boot image and the SuperSU files after and you should be good to go.
Chainfire warns that this is purely experimental at this point, so there may be bugs and the usual stuff that go with unstable tweaks. There are a number of benefits to this process, but the developer himself is not sure where this process will end up in the future. If you want to try this, check out the official XDA thread here.

Great things is know being working with this developers. They want the people to avoid getting root nowadays. Like me i have rooted my Samsung Galaxy S4 and it works perfectly and i got lot of premium apps for free with rooting it.
