[SOLVED] Lost root and busybox on CM7.1 - LG Optimus 2x

Hi I'm using CM7.1 and it works well, then I noticed most apps that need root access stopped working.
root explorer won't even launch, rom manager can't run any command, but terminal and SSH tunnel works fine.
So I installed root checker, witch says 'you have root access' but check results are 'permission denied'
Here is the result:
Congratulations! You have root access!

Tried to install busybox with busybox installer v5.5, didn't work. (requires root access)
Downloaded latest superuser and binary, flashed via CWM didn't work.
Reset superuser and tried to update binary from superuser binary updater fail checking md5sum.
I also tried fix permission from CWM but didn't work neither.
Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks for the reply! I'll try that and post back.
It's CM7.1 stable version I'm using.
BTW do I need to wipe cache?
update: reflashing works

I've had my verizon droid bionic rooted for a few months now on ICS using razors edge. Then I used Voodoo OTA root to temp unroot and updated to Jellybean. I restored root and everything was fine. So then I tried to install busy box after, but superuser wouldn't come up. So I deleted superuser and reinstalled it. Now Root checker says I don't have proper root access. (Also root browser still works fine) All other apps instead of having a su prompt they say I'm not rooted. Whats happening to my phone?

Try rebooting.
If rebooting it doesn't work, it might be because when installing the busybox something on the System side messed up. The only way to fix this would be to HOB with Data and the re-rooting the device. Everything which can be found through this link Here. If you don't run a Linux distro this can be ran off of a Live USB setup. You can make a simple one using a 4 or 8 gig USB thumb drive and make sure that you let it make some space for updates and adding files. I would keep this around just for the fact that you don't need any specific drivers to run on Linux like you need on Windows. There are treads that have instructions on using Windows to get this done, but I would say that Ubuntu would be the best way to accomplish anything. Best of Luck.

Would it brick if I flashed it using RSD Lite? Just wondering because I've done that before and am familiar with it. If not, yes I do have Windows, not Linux, so I can try the HOB.

I would stick with the HOB just to keep the data. The only route I have found that will successfully re root it is done with Linux. It can be done running Linux on a thumb drive as long as there was space created for updates.

If that doesn't work and you need restore it to JB, here are the relevant links:
FXZ files for Bionic:

RSD Lite Example (not for bionic, but gets you some of the links you'll need):

If you want to try it from linux, fastboot from linux:

And if you need to root once you flash your JB stock image, you'll need something like this:

Unable to Root

I have an HTC One Dev Edition (M7) and since day 1 I have had issues with getting root access. I have had it now for a few months and it seemed like I could only have root access for a few minutes after a reboot and then root access would be denied. I finally decided to dump the stock ROM and installed Android Revolution 3.0 GE and since installing it I am unable to even obtain root at all. I have tried several different methods, nothing seems to work. I have never had an issue with prior phones, which I buy 2-4 phones a year and always unlock and root it as soon as I power it on. I have even tried using Hasoon2000's Toolkit and the root process, flashes fine but when I reboot, no root. Here is the link from Root Checker.

go to recovery.....flash ARHD 3.0 GE...after install dont reboot....go to instal and point to the file you downloaded from:
http://download.chainfire.eu/345/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.51.zip then reboot...you should have your root back:good:
Cool, that worked for me.
Any to thoughts on why with the stock ROM I would lose root after a few minutes? Doesn't really matter now but I am curious to why this was happening.
Probably you did not hit thanks button after somebody helped You...
LOL
Never noticed it before.

It might be a ROM problem, open Superuser and disable the CM-Root-Setting thingy
and Reboot

And yeah. When I installed SuperSU it said i need to upgrade binary and when i tried it told me that it couldnt install it and after rebooting i couldnt see the SuperSU binary upgrade offer anymore.
Also when i installed the new ROM i made a full wipe at twrp recovery including system.
Please somebody help me! If you need any more information just ask me. Sorry my horrible english. And thanks.
Have you tried flashing SuperSU through TWRP? You can find the flashable zip in the SuperSU XDA thread.

6. Open SuperSU and update SU binary. I saw a message to disable KNOX. I did it
7. Install CWM Touch.
Then I installed other apps that need SU - Triangle Away, Titanium Backup. These apps worked fine for me. I went ahead and froze bloatware.

I know this is an old problem and has been answered many times, i have read all thepossible ways to fix it and i have tried, over and over but I'm missing something.
Please help.
I rooted with Supersu, it worked for 2days then stopped. Now all the root apps can't work and i have tried everything to make it work, to no avail. Here is a copy of my Root hecker:

_----------------------
So my device is rooted, but i don't have permission. Tried to copy .su file from xbin to bin, not possible.
Uninstalled reinstalled, unrooted rerooted, reinstalled SuperSu from playstore.
Made sure no double superuser programs running.
Got rid of Knox.
Tried to custom install Supersu update, says invalid certificate.
I extracted SuperSU.zip and tried to copy the .su file to \bin but also didn't work.
I believe if i can copy the .su file in \xbin to \bin the permissions wil be there. Bought Rootbrowser but error when copying. Or give permission on file SetUID.
Can't run Bootbox cause didn't install before root stopped working. Also Titanium backup stopped working now.
Any ideas how to fix? Don't want to factory reset. Can't be to difficult to fix. Any help will be appreciated this is the first time I have rooted.
PS. If this post is in the wrong place please advise where itshould be.
Thanks
