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.

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.

Re-flash a rooted kernel that supports your ROM.
what? im confused, you successfully installed a ROOT based ROM, but SU dont work and its root problem?
have you tried re-installing the SU app?
Well when i just installed the rom, i updated super su from play store, and i m already using a supported kernel wich is dorimanx

If problem persist. redo the list, but between 4 and 5, add Reflash firmware...
Good Luck...

Well, I figure that there are some people here like me with a locked bootloader I may as well share what I have. I'd like to thank elpuertorro for getting me interested in using adb commands and everyone that has contributed to the development of the L9!!!
Use this at your own risk, blah, blah, blah. If you use this with any previous kdz and nuke your phone..... ....not my fault. You've been warned, ok? Use only with a fresh install of T-Mobile 20H kdz.
Here we go.....first, make sure you are rooted with Busybox. Then, copy contents of L9.zip to the root of your EXTERNAL sd card. Make sure usb debugging is on and plug in your phone to the computer. Then, run these commands.....
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount /system/ /system/
cp /sdcard/external_sd/app/* /system/app/
rm /system/app/*.odex
cp /sdcard/external_sd/framework/* /system/framework/
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount /system/ /system/
reboot
You're going to get an error with LGKeyboard and Hangouts. I have uploaded TouchPal Keyboard and a working Hangouts at the end of this post called L9Apps.zip. Just use a root file explorer to paste the Hangouts to system/app and make sure the permissions match the other apps in there! Install and activate TouchPal....you can use a root uninstaller to remove LGKeyboard.
20H Deodexed and Zipaligned
L9 Apps
I want to thank the following for making our lives with the L9 much easier and interesting:
cmahendra, Lelus, kevev, carloswii5, captaincrook, elpuertorro, artas182x, kuma82, omgbossis21, mateo1111, Ilxaot....I'm sorry if I missed anyone. I'm sleepy....lol.
Might be a better way than this, perhaps a flashable zip that uses the dd command? Reason is it got through copying about half the apps and then said out of storage for the rest. Now most my settings are gone. I got a backup so no biggie.
Hmmm.... or how about I recommend this on a fresh install of 20h?

Ok, updated my phone to the first nightly build on cm11, everything is working fine except for the fact that I cant modify system apps or files although im rooted.
Eg. I cant replace bootanimation.zip
Eg.2 I cant uninstall a system app
Is this a problem with the rom or what?!
Reminder: I AM ROOTED!!

What are you using to remove apps ???and how .
Are you just trying to remove the apk in a root explorer? If so does /system have the correct permissions?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
I tried to use the following apps from the play store:
1.Root app delete
2.Clean master
Both failed to work as root app delete says that I am not rooted, and clean master fails to uninstall a system app although I granted it root permission.

And also I forgot to mention that root browser does not let me delete system apps despite the fact that I granted it root permission. I tried solving this issue by reinstalling busy box but that did not work either.

Rom toolbox also fails to remove system apps - however simply deleting them with root explorer works fine (after which, I use SD maid to clear up any corpses).
