I have unlocked the bootloader and -s off but busybox and Su apps are saying I do not have root! any idea's?
When saying this you didn't say you rooted it but I'm assuming you did flash the Su apk. right?

Are you rooted now? What did the script say before busybox detected? su binary detected? Superuser detected?
Download BusyBox Installer it will tell you if a busybox is installed and what version it is.
Not rooted now, no root apps working. it detected super user, was going to overwrite everything except busybox.

alright lets take a manual look download root explorer lite it will work for the purposes that we need it for.
go into root explorer lite and navigate to /system/xbin and see if there is a file named busybox there (and also alot of other files like ] ]]) then navigate to /system/bin and see if the file su is there and finally navigate to /system/app and look for Superuser.apk.
did you try any other methods of root since the update?
retried aio, droid 3, and torpedo thru terminal. Ok, thanks for help.

your phone for all purposes should be rooted. unless one or more of the files are corrupted. did you try to uninstall the busybox using the busybox installer?
W will try t tomorrow. Thanks,

I'm going to have to adjust the script a little. One more favor go into root explorer lite and navigate to /system/bin/su and then long press on the su file and select permissions and please let me know what its set at.
All nine permission boxes checked. No special permissions. Rwxrwxrwx 0777

OK thanks. Give me a little bit as I'm away from my Dev computer I'll adjust the script to handle this issue. The file must be corrupted.
Hey thanks,

Lets see if this works download ver 1.1 and run the root cleaner and then run the root function and you should be good to go.
This is the exact issue I am having and it happens with 1.1

It can be done but the process is a little involved. removing symlinks and such. the script will remove it all for you.
so previously i rooted my i9300 (with odin, the chainfire method) and when i updated i lost it, then i tried to uninstall it, (full unroot in the supersu) but it doesnt delete, now i have cwm, supersu, but no root, how can i gain root again? thanks for your advices...

Just flash cf root again

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Flash a pre rooted stock rom (won't lose your data and you will have root)
do you have a link with instructions?
and also, will i be able to update?

Through OTA you won't be able use odin instead and just search for the rom and next time post in the correct forum

Can we root Jelly Bean yet for the tmobile variant yet? Like any easy ways preferably....
Sent from my LG-P769 using XDA Premium HD app
Lelus method is the only way currently. A hex-edited bin file for P769 Jellybean was uploaded by cmahendra in his thread. So take a look
Hi, can't we root by flashing via cwm? As I have rooted by that method

Ah I misunderstood the OP I think. I was assuming that he was currently stock and unrooted.
Yeah if you already have CWM you can flash a rooted backup.
Sent from my LG-P769 using xda app-developers app
As I have unlocked bootloader, then flashed cwm using cmd in fastboot mode and rooted using update.zip via recovery

Hey friend
You can unlock your bootloader using fastboot method then it will be easier to flash recovery in kernel and if you flashed it successfully then you are done.
As after that rooting is just child play Earlier I have owned other android but I guess LG is the easiest and safest phone to root

If you don't want to do all the u boot and whatnot then just do the Lelus method with the hex file. It's not too easy but not very hard either. Hmm. . .I wonder if we could use the original root method that we used for 10e? Boys that was easy!

Yes the rooting is the same and the link developweb gave you is the easiest instructions and it is how I rooted my I717r. However....
If after installing Recovery (cwm or twrp) and you reboot into recovery to install superuser you find out you still have stock recovery installed then you need to do an extra step. Depending on how your phone was updated there may be a script installed that restores the stock recovery. So after you install custom recovery remove your battery while it is rebooting. This will prevent the script from reinstalling stock recovery. Then boot into recovery yourself to install superuser.
Info about rooting the Canadian version is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775263
I rooted my I717r with ICS installed. I installed ICS using odin and the script was not on my phone. I believe if your phone was updated via OTA then it got the script. I have no idea if this script is carried over into jellybean or not.
Thanks a lot everyone
