Unrooted back to rooted?

Hi, I'm in trouble here. I unrooted my phone back to stock and still have hboot still off. So i am doing the process of rooting again and when i open revolutionary exe and its asks for the generated key. I go to the website and generate one I put it in and its coming back as invalid. Is there anyway to fix this? Please help.

You're probably mistaking an 0 for an o, or a 1 for an I or something. I suggest copying and pasting.

Why can I find the root zip?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Just flash a recovery and then flash the su zip from recovery. You can easily find it in the developers section.
Here is the recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192077
Here is the SU: http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2....fgh-signed.zip

Installing the recovery and Su apk doesn't root my phone. I need the exploit I think.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
The exploit just gives you s-off. If the recovery installed and the su zip installed then you are good to go. You may want to try flashing the engineering hboot in the developers section.

Don't want to log into market because I'm giving the phone to a friend and they need to log into their account, but I just rooted the phone with Odin to flash the tmobile 4G radio, but I need the superuser apk for the root.
Anyone got it?

Guess the post above yours has the link as well. Oops!
If you are a stock rom, you will have to push the file to the phone or install cwm recovery to install from recovery.

If you already have cwm then you are on the easy road. Just boot into recovery then install the zip.

The kernel needs to be flashed separately using boot image flasher, uniflash or using the fastboot command line

What hboot do you have? Do you have the supersu app installed? If you open it, it should ask you to update if it needs it.

Yes... If you have the Supersu app, just open it... If the binary is outdated, it will prompt out for asking you to update... If not, go to its settings to update...
