Rooting works without problems with the default firmware from 04.2016.
After a SElinux update from ~23.05.2016 root is LOST. Re-flashing Super-SU or an updated CF-autoroot does not help
Flashing the default bootloader from a sammobile stock firmware does not help - the device got stuck in a bootloop
After flashing the complete system with the stock firmware from 16.04.2016 the device boots again and all data is still there (dalvik cache wiped in between from TWRP recovery)
Now with the default bootloader it is possible to re-root the device with the latest CF-autoroot
Make sure to disable further updates and update Super-SU to 2.74.
