If you already unlocked the bootloader, just flash the extended kernel. It will automatically give you root

thanks for the fast response..hmm i really dont have idea on "extended kernel" can you tell me mate what to do?can i flash it even im already back on BUILD 4.1.B.0.587?

Once you have unlocked ur bootloader all you need to do is flash a pre-rooted kernel(maximum are pre-rooted) and then flash any ROM made for the kernel
Best Regards,
AJ

Just flash any custom kernel then u can use doomlords rooting toolkit for ics or gb..
Depends on your current rom..

Download lupus kernel, Just Google lupus kernel for your device. (ics or jb). Then install any rom. Recommend cm.

AW: Want to downgrade from cm to stock NEO V
The kernel you need depends on your rom you used while you took the bandroid backup.
You should remember if it was a GB or ICS rom.
Possible kernels can be found at the stickys here at neo forum.
